Ph.D. Seeks Marriage, Sets Three Requirements, Mocked by Blind Date Man: “Can You Still Have Kids?”
In today’s era of open romance, the term “leftover woman” has long been accepted by the public.
When a woman reaches 30 without getting married, it’s perfectly normal. Regardless of age, every woman should have the right to choose a partner without being eliminated by others.
Meimei is 36 this year, a true female academic overachiever.
She excelled in her studies and was even admitted to university directly.
After completing her undergraduate degree, she pursued a Ph.D.
Although successful in her career and studies, her love life was not as smooth.
Her parents urged her to marry at this age and arranged many blind dates for her.
However, Meimei was very selective because she believed her education was valuable and sought a man who matched her.
Her parents felt that, despite her achievements, she should settle down with someone similar in age. They advised her to lower her standards, but Meimei believed she deserved someone better.
Recently, friends introduced her to a wealthy second-generation man.
Impressed by his status, Meimei agreed to the blind date.
At the restaurant, he appeared gentlemanly, and Meimei was interested.
While dining, they had a pleasant conversation.
Meimei boldly stated, “Since we’re here for marriage, I have three requirements. Let’s be straightforward.”
He agreed to hear her out.
Meimei said, “I’ll marry you if your annual income exceeds a million, you own a car and a house. Secondly, I won’t have children after marriage; I want to focus on my career. Thirdly, if we marry, I won’t live with your family. You must live with me at my parents’ place since I’m an only child. If you meet these requirements, let’s get married.”
Upon hearing her demands, he just smiled and asked, “Do you think your requests are unreasonable?”
Meimei replied confidently, “Not at all. A talented female Ph.D. like me marrying into your family benefits you. So, my requests are reasonable.”
Seeing her arrogance, he joked, “With all these demands, can you even have kids?”
Feeling hurt, Meimei left without a word, ending their blind date.
In real life, talented women like Meimei are common, but few are as picky.
Talent doesn’t always correlate with character.
As the saying goes, “The more one brags, the more they lack.”
Meimei, a female Ph.D., may have talent, but her values are questionable.
While we recognize her talent, her condescending attitude towards blind dates invites mockery and doubt.
Outstanding women are respected primarily for their emotional intelligence. A woman with high emotional intelligence earns respect wherever she goes.
Every woman desires to marry someone outstanding, which is not wrong.
However, when setting standards for others, one must meet similar criteria.
In love, equality doesn’t mean flaunting your education to dominate others.
In communication, emotional intelligence matters. Respect begets respect.
In love, mutual respect and sincerity lead to pure and beautiful relationships. Complications only lead to failure.
Love cannot be measured by money. If you truly love someone, accept them fully.
While education reflects capability, it doesn’t define character.
High-quality individuals show sincerity in love rather than bargaining with their education. Qualifications may impress, but communication skills matter more.
In love, loyalty, respect, and honesty pave the way to happiness.
May every exceptional woman find the happiness she deserves.
