My parents usually don't let me spend a penny more, including my own money, and they want me to find someone wealthy haha: smile:

I think it's just that parents want face, like both sides of my family

My parents feel that my single status is very pitiful, and then I found that they have been living in groups since childhood, without personal space. Instead, I sympathize with them. Besides, I feel quite happy about myself. When making choices, the first thing to consider is myself. On the contrary, I love myself even more than before: smile:

What do you want to say? Forget it, I don't want to talk. If I could start over, I wouldn't get married

After reading the comments section, I noticed that your family is quite wealthy. I think having books to read is good no matter what, but it's not that my family treats me harshly, it's just that the conditions are like this.

One day, I suddenly realized this truth: why can I only buy a car when I get married, why can the good cotton that my mom saved for me only bounce into a quilt when I get married, why can I only buy a gold bracelet when I get married... Do I have to have such a man to have what I want. Will the things I have disappear because of this man's departure. Do I need a man to love myself. After figuring it out, I started working on it and completed it one by one. These things are very ordinary, but I give them to myself, that's the confidence, no one can take them away. I can live the life I want on my own, freedom! Comfortable!

Even more exaggerated, I married into a coastal city in the south, and many families only hold their wedding when their children are already very old. It is said that they didn't have enough money to hold a grand ceremony when they first got married, so they saved up money after getting married

I told you that I've been buying a washing machine in my hometown for a long time and haven't used it yet. I said I'll wait until my brother gets married before using it. [Laughing and crying R] My brother doesn't even have a partner. [Covering his face R]

My family has good conditions and is still an only child, but we still cannot receive material support from home. It makes you feel much more comfortable to hear this. From being heavily in debt to paying off debts and buying a car, my father has not supported me at all and suppressed me. He has already cut off our relationship and offered 500000 yuan to buy me a house to keep me from leaving. He wants me to stay by his side and continue to suppress, belittle, and support him. I never want to see him again in the future

Getting married means spending the money from both families to cosplay for a wealthy person for a day

Especially for many girls who go on blind dates, they don't have a car before marriage and get married for 300000 yuan. I'm thinking that if she had a car before dating and expanded her social circle, the quality of blind date partners would improve. [Laughing and Crying R] My parents can't figure it out.

In fact, it's just that parents are reluctant to give their children a good material life, or in other words, they don't have the ability to give it, hoping that their husband's family can provide it. After I became an adult, my house only had a water heater. In the early days, I had to boil my own hot water for showering, and there was no separate bathroom or decent wardrobe. The whole family's clothes were mixed together, so sometimes I had to go to my mother's wardrobe to find a bedsheet. Once, when I went to my aunt's house, I saw my cousin, who was a primary school student, had a separate bathroom and bedroom (with cute toilet seats), and a complete set of furniture and desks. I know how envious I was at that time, some people were born with it. But I have to get these through marriage. That's too ironic

That's what my mom thinks. She insists on buying a car as a dowry only after getting married

I think this is a way for parents to show face in front of their in laws. If their daughter buys a house and a car when she is unmarried, it seems like they won't be able to offer anything when they get married. Not only will they lose face, but they will also lose money. Essentially, they don't love their children as much

This is just an excuse, in fact, it is the cautious thinking of investors. Buying after getting married can save money and earn reputation. For example, many daughters only have cars for marriage.

After getting married and saving money to spend on my children, I have selflessly devoted my life

Perhaps, in the eyes of parents, investing in oneself is called selfishness. After getting married, I feel that having someone share my car and house makes me less selfish.
