Re: Understanding Vietnamese Life Partner
I frequent HCM a lot bcos I have a lot of friends there. I recently found someone that I think is worth my time and effort. After breaking off with my ex, I got acquainted with T on Facebook. I kinda knew her because she works in the same bar as my ex. We chatted every night about random stuffs and our fave football club, Manchester united. I was very weary of her because I just got cheated from my ex. Out of impulse, I bought her a man united jersey because she's actually the first woman that I know who loves United and actually understands football.. And I bought that out of friendship. So when I went over to hcm, I passed her the jersey but have no intentions of anything further than friends. She was pretty weary of me as well when I gave her the jersey and gave me the "what the FFF" look.. I then got interested to one of her other colleague, V. We went out a bit as a group and the relationship between me and V blossomed. On my next trip, I spend almost all my time there with V and left T out of the picture. T called me out and asked me how come we never hung out. I told her that I was busy. I then make an effort to meet up with her together with my godsisters and V. My godsisters did not like T because of the longstanding feud that they had long before I came into the picture. So from the start, they already bad mouth T to me. I took everything with a pinch of salt because girls will be girls when they bitch fit! After the meeting, I kinda insulted T by calling her a fake but that was only meant to be a joke. T cried. I was so in shock and called her when I got home. She asked me why I didn't call her when I come hcm cos she thought we're friends. And did my godsisters bad mouth her and all.. I decided to tell her the truth. I told her that I'm going out with V. She cried on the phone. She didn't talk to me for the next few days when I was in VN.. It was then I realized that she actually have a liking for me. Me and V did not work thru. On my 3rd trip, I stopped going out with V because we are simply worlds apart. And I started going out with T. It was a beautiful. Of course she gave me a hard time cos it's obvious that in the back of her mind, she knows that she's the 2nd choice after V. I tried so many tests on her to check her sincerity. I also give her the ultimate test of giving her 10m every month to support her even though we're not an item yet. She rejected and called me stupid instead. I was impressed. Cos that's the end game for all VN girls who go for money. We talked every night when I'm in SG and when I'm in VN, she'll be with me almost every other day. Even my ex never done this before. But we're still not an item. She just came out of very bad relationship with an ang moh who she was a victim of. We had our ups and downs like a normal LDR couple like trust issues and misunderstanding.
Then on my 4th trip, something happened. She told me a little lie. After work, she told me that she wanna go home but ended up having supper with her colleagues. She really wanted to go home but her colleague psychoed her to come and show face to the new dj who wanted to treat the staffs to supper. She stayed for 20 minutes and left for home. She then text me when she got home. But I have no idea of her little outing. So the very next day, I met up with my god sisters and they told me that T went out yesterday and didn't go home right after work. They then told me that there're rumors that she likes the new dj. I was affected. I got paranoid. But I didn't confront her. She then got the wind that I knew about it and texted me. I replied by saying "why did you lie" and I got no answer for her. That made me even worse cos I thought that's it laa.. I then went to her bar cos I already promised a few friends. She did not even talk to me. Wondering what went wrong, I just drank up.. After she finish work, we talked. She told me that she did reply my SMS and even should it on her sent folder. It was a misunderstanding. I asked her why she lied. She said that she didn't need to report everything to me cos we're not together yet and said that it's just for 20mins or so and don't wanna complicate things. After that we made up and everything went well.
But all hell broke loose when my friend SMS her that she is a money grabber scum, prostitute and all those nonsense. It basically spoiled the day for us. She cried profusely for half a day. It was bad. So bad until I have to call in my Vietnamese god mum to talk to her. She told her all her feelings for me and all the issues that she had with me but she just can't stop thinking that she's the 2nd choice and that all my friends think that she's a cheat like my ex.. I'm all lost.. Any advise?
