When I walked up to a particularly attractive exhibit, I couldn't help but stop and admire it. This is an oil painting in which a couple of lovers sit embracing each other, their eyes full of longing and happiness for the future. I couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and an inexplicable sentimentality welled up in my heart. My relationship with my boyfriend used to be so sweet, but now it is at an impasse because of a bride price dispute.
Not long ago, my boyfriend asked for an engagement. I thought it was a great start, but we didn't expect to fall apart at the engagement party that day. He said: "If you sleep in the sleep, you will need 80,000 dowry." "I was caught off guard by this sudden request, and my heart welled up with indescribable disappointment and grievance. I thought he was deeply in love with me, but now it seems that love is measured by money.
My boyfriend's words made me feel calm for a long time. I didn't expect that our relationship would break down because of money. This not only made my heart twist, but also made me feel lost and uneasy about our future.
When I got home, I didn't talk to my family about it, because I didn't want them to worry about me. I sat alone in front of the window, watching the sunset outside the window, with mixed feelings. How should I deal with this emotional crisis now?
At this time, the phone rang, and it was my mother calling. She asked me about my situation with concern, and I had to deal with it vaguely. My mother knew that there was a problem between us, so she advised me not to be too anxious and communicate well. She told me that the road of relationship is full of ups and downs and setbacks, but as long as we manage with our hearts, there will always be hope. Listening to my mother's words, I gradually calmed down and decided to talk to my boyfriend and not let my feelings give up like this.
The next day, I reached out to my boyfriend and we sat down and had a serious conversation. I expressed my feelings and expectations, and my boyfriend expressed his inner thoughts. Through some communication, we both released the dissatisfaction and confusion in our hearts, and also became more clear about our feelings for each other. In the end, my boyfriend also expressed his willingness to face difficulties with me and manage the relationship together.
Although the problem has not been completely resolved, I am full of hope and confidence for the future. With the support of our family and friends, I am confident that we will be able to overcome the difficulties in front of us and move towards a happy future. Now I firmly believe that love should not be measured by money, as long as we truly love each other, we will be able to overcome all difficulties.
Just after we got over the bride price problem, another thing happened that caught me off guard. My boyfriend and I met up at a café one night, ready to talk about our future. However, just as we sat down and were about to speak, my boyfriend suddenly fell silent and looked a little hesitant.
"I want to tell you something. The boyfriend finally opened his mouth, his tone a little hesitant.
"What's the matter?" I felt a sense of foreboding.
"Actually...... I've recently received a lot of pressure from my family, and they've been urging me to get married. "My boyfriend's words made me a little confused.
"That'...... What does this have to do with us? Don't you...... Is it with me...... Break up?" I asked, a little flustered.
"No, no, I want to be able to marry you, but the family ...... They wanted me to marry someone they approved. "My boyfriend's words made me feel a huge sense of loss and helplessness. I never thought that our relationship would be subject to external resistance.
When I got home, I couldn't calm down. What happened this time left me feeling more stressed and confused than ever. I couldn't sleep all night, thinking all night about how to deal with this unpredictable challenge. I know that my boyfriend doesn't love me, but the impact of external pressure on feelings is indeed an insurmountable obstacle.
The next day, I decided to talk to my boyfriend and get to know his family's thoughts. We sat down in a quiet café, and I asked bluntly, "What the hell do you mean by your family? Don't they like me?"
My boyfriend listened to my question, smiled bitterly, and then said, "It's not that they don't like you, it's just that they think that you are not commensurate with my family's conditions, and they hope that I can marry a girl from a better family, so that I can have a better future." ”
I felt a sour feeling after listening to my boyfriend's words, all this was so sudden and incredible to me. I never imagined that our relationship would be challenged like this. The grievances and helplessness in my heart made me feel almost suffocated. But I understand that if we want to come together, we have to face all of this.
Now I am conflicted and don't know what to do. I need time to think calmly, and I need to talk to more people to find an acceptable solution. I know that this challenge will be a big test in our relationship, but I am also willing to face everything bravely for the sake of our love.
When I was thinking about facing the future with my boyfriend, a new conflict arose at home. That day, I came home to find my parents arguing in court. It turned out that my father had been in a bad mood recently due to the pressure of work, and my mother was very worried about my father's health and the stability of the family for this reason. Their quarrels also make the whole family nervous and uneasy.
In this atmosphere, I felt a little helpless. I always thought that the family was the strongest harbor and it was not easy to come by, but now I see all kinds of contradictions in the family. I didn't know what to do for a while, and I was tormented. I need to find a way to get my family back together.
I decided to have a good talk with my parents. When I told them all about my thoughts and concerns, my parents were understanding and receptive. They reconciled on the spot, and I was relieved. I understand that every conflict in the family needs to be faced and resolved, and only through communication and understanding can we reunite and face the challenges of life together.
After this incident, I also firmly believe that family harmony and unity are the most important thing. No matter what happens, only when there is understanding and tolerance between family members, can we face the ups and downs of life together and move towards a happy future.
At this point, the atmosphere in the house became more harmonious, and I thought I should do something for my family to show them how much I appreciate what they have always done for me. Perhaps, it is because of this gratitude that I was able to rekindle my hope and confidence in life.
With new hope for a relationship, my relationship with my boyfriend gradually improved, and we regained mutual understanding and tolerance. However, just when we thought things were starting to get better, an unexpected event happened.
On that day, my boyfriend and I were going on a trip to enjoy the world together. But just before going out, his boyfriend received a phone call, and his face instantly became solemn. After hanging up the phone, he told me that something was going on at home and that he needed to rush back to deal with it. I persuaded him not to worry, but my boyfriend firmly believed that he could not delay the important affairs at home.
I could understand his sense of responsibility to his family, so I set out on my own journey. During the journey, I could not get rid of the anxiety and doubts in my heart. The sudden change in boyfriend confused me and also made me question our relationship. Isn't the relationship stable yet and facing new challenges?
Thinking about this, I felt more and more distraught. No matter how beautiful the scenery is along the way, it can't stop the irritability in my heart. I don't know what's going on at home, and I can't get in touch with my boyfriend. A sense of foreboding gradually rose in my heart, and I was worried that something bad was happening at home.
When I finally got home, the atmosphere was clearly a little different. Mom and Dad's faces looked unnatural, and the atmosphere in the house became solemn. I soon learned that there was something wrong with my family's business, and there was a big economic crisis. And my boyfriend has been so busy dealing with this during this time that he can't travel with me.
After repeated questioning by my family, I finally learned the details of the incident. The family's business was not very good, and this problem put the family in a difficult situation. Mom and Dad are anxious, and my boyfriend is deeply guilty. However, I felt some resentment in my heart.
I always believe that my boyfriend's responsibility should be responsible for me first. Although he was busy with his family affairs, he didn't tell me anything and even let me travel alone. It made me feel that he didn't care enough for me.
Thinking of this, the dissatisfaction and doubts in my heart began to rise again. I couldn't help but wonder if our relationship could really withstand all kinds of difficulties, and all this made me feel lost and confused, I didn't know how to deal with our relationship, and I didn't know how to deal with this family dilemma.
A long time has passed, and the relationship between me and my boyfriend has slowly returned to its former sweetness. Together, we are working hard to overcome difficulties and hope for a better future. However, new contradictions are quietly sprouting in the family. That day, my boyfriend and I were discussing the wedding when we received a call from my father, saying that there was an urgent matter at home that required us to go back.
Rushing home, we found out that it was my grandfather's body that had a problem and needed long-term treatment and care. The brothers and sisters in the family discussed how to take care of their grandfather, but due to work and other reasons, they were unable to take care of their grandfather full-time. My parents naturally wanted us to take on this responsibility, but my boyfriend and I couldn't stay home for long because of our work. For a while, the contradictions in the family came to the fore.
As time passed, Grandpa's condition did not improve, and the atmosphere at home became tense. My boyfriend and I struggled every day to find a solution, but we felt more and more powerless. Every time I think of my grandfather's meticulous care for us, I feel like a knife. The responsibilities and pressures in my family gradually made me feel heavy.
At this time, my boyfriend's parents also began to put pressure on us to return to work with them and take on the responsibilities of the family. This made me feel even more helpless, and the conflict between family and career made me feel lost and anxious. Just when I felt like I was about to break down, my dad came over and patted me gently on the shoulder and told me, "Baby, difficulties are inevitable, as a family, we must unite and help each other and face it together." "After listening to my father's words, I felt that the burden on my heart seemed to be lighter.
Now I don't know what to do, I don't know if I can find a balance between family and career dilemmas. But I know that no matter what happens, I'm going to face it with my family and try to find a solution. There will always be inevitable contradictions in life, and I hope I can become stronger in this challenge.
