Do you believe it's the same in Taiwan? Cause I believe in Taiwan people are generally politer, it's not AS stigmatised to say thank you to your family

@@cm-yu6gu Like I said, it's not about "politeness". Mainland people could be as polite as anyone in the world to non-family members. As for Taiwan, we all know it underwent a long period of Japanese colonization, while the Japanese are well-known for their hierarchy manner. Plus, my personal experience in Taiwan was also not perfect: people treat you differently just because you speak Mandarin or English. It's a highly politically and culturally inconsistent area, so anything won't surprise me really.

Hi! This is really interesting and I’m glad you have imparted this wisdom upon us all. I never knew this before reading your comment. It made me realize as an American that the phrase thank you is used a lot and in relation to service industries and retail workers who are in a way social and economic outsiders in our country. If I were to travel to China, would you mind sharing a phrase I could use (Chinese or English) that would express gratitude? :) If I were to travel to China

It really is a cultural difference. We are taught from when we are children to say "thank you" whenever someone does something nice for you, and that you are very rude if you don't do it! Even with family and friends. In fact, if you don't say "thank you" enough, people will think you don't appreciate them and will get upset lol

@@AG-ne3rh I think "thank you" would be ok to use with people you don't know well (like service workers), although they would probably use it less often than we would. Using it with family and friends is the cultural difference - it makes it seem very formal to Chinese people.

I had a woman try to sleep with me, just to learn more English. That was her direct offer. No lessons, no practice pronunciation, just let me talk to you in English anytime and you can get with me in exchange.

If you speak to older Americans, you will realize that we used to be pragmatic as well. Statements like "he's got no business getting married when he can't even take care of himself".

Credit card debt and welfare are not long term solutions or things anyone should be relying on in any country.

@@BlueskyDenver in the wise words of Chris Rock. "There's no soul mate, ....There's a mate." He attached someone when you are single and you are attached to someone when he's single. My professor ran the numbers as a statistical example. He was calculating on the number of people someone has to date to find the potential one with the given criteria. College age, common, interests, similar finances.... That person had to go on about 5 dates a day for the next 15-17 years.

Hope Todorova let things fall into place what meant to be will be!

@@BlueskyDenver I agree. Yeah...that was ten years ago when social media isn't as big or invasive and people's psyche were somewhat more stable. Now the numbers are probably much worse. I realized at 19 yrs old that the ideal relationship between men and women have existed, because they voluntarily wanted to share a part of their life with that person. It is a want not a need. Thus their own contentment and happiness rely on themselves mostly. So, they must possessed self awareness physically, mentally, spiritually and financially. It was always strange to me growing up in the West that teens in middle school have boyfriends and girlfriends. In the traditional culture of dating and courtship, it was used as a step towards marriage and a family. If people just exercise a small amount of standards it would eliminate a huge amount of the current problems. Example. Before you sleep with that person. Make sure that they have good finances, little to no debt with savings. Good health and strong ethical values. No STDs or STis. That's like 95%-98% of the dating population is eliminated. That's just the basics, just incase you knock someone up that you have the finances to take of that child. That child won't have health problems, because of genetics. Noticed I left out education, religion, politics, home economics, number of sexual partners etc.... Add those in and pretty much, just give up. Of course you should possessed those qualities yourself if you seek a partner that can match it. I do possessed those qualities. I disagree with the waiting for God to send someone to towards my way. You need to be proactive and at the same time always improve yourself to be ready for that person.

@@BlueskyDenver I agree somewhat. I guess you can called me a Buddhist but I practice a belief that is distinctive to my culture, in essence aligning with the Buddhist philosophy. The Buddha does not spent time explaining about the Creator or God, as it does nothing for the liberation of the human soul. The universe is not loving nor is it evil, it just is, same for the Tao. Faith alone won't do it, it is also your own effort of free will that cuts the karmic cycles. So effort is needed to find that person. Thus you practice meditation. If you can come enlighten without any effort then everyone would be have achieved it already. Enlightenment can be spontaneous or achieved through practice, that's a debate for another time. Of course it is always good to practice right thought, speech and action daily. Mediation and chants are tools, just like Koans are tools to break the human learned foundation, which brings you closer to enlightenment. The "know" that we are based our understanding and interaction with the world is learned through our physiology experience, thus won't allow you to reach enlightenment/spiritual freedom. Karmic debt or fate is a hard concept to explain sometime. Your coincidental chance of exchanging your ideas to me could be consider a karmic tie. If we were to apply the Karmic laws in the application of romantic relationship, then it is not a good thing. Because it will impede the spiritual liberation of cutting the reincarnation cycle. It could be karmic that you met that horrible person to pay debt a off by learning that can help your spiritual growth. If I were to intervene then I will be standing in your way of learning your lesson. In short you will have to make some effort to meet that person. But that's a debate of fate and karma and free will.

@@Ryo8761 yup those basics before you get into personality, religion and such I agree hardly the majority of population cover these. They’re lacking in at least 1 or more. I cover them but its frustrating because I hardly find anyone attractive, if they cover the basics, nice personality and funny and even just an 8/10, I wouldn’t mind. Doesn’t even cover that. But then again where I live people have low standards for themselves yet some got high standards for they who they want. It’s ridiculous. Some don’t want to put effort yet want someone out of their league or think I would be interested in them. Rather be alone then settle. Being single is way better in my case then and only insecure people would be mopping around about being single simply because they don’t value or love themselves enough to not need someone or seek affection.

Hahahahah love her 💞💞💞

Baechy face?

He gives of very self-centred, attention seeking, white saviour vibes. Also, I feel like he would be so tiring in a conversation, more like a monologue.

@@miruna2453 Right on. Like taking a picture outside Costco. What could be the worst thing happen? Just do it. I would not last that long to dump him.

wait what, saying 'thank you' because someone bought you something or gave you a present is a unnecessary formality? how many toxic relationships have you been

@@ussreall it’s like saying I love you too much... it takes away from the meaning

It does if you say thank you for every single insignificant thing, but if a friend gives a gift or helps to solve some problem, a thank you is a nice way to show appreciation to them.

i have lived in scotland my whole life and i dont think ive ever done that (unless it was some sort of special occasion)

We do where I come from in Ross - Snire

@@frostyclouded people don't do that in Glasgow. But we just bring alcohols like buckfast hahaha.

I'm in the US and if you stay at someone's house it's nice to bring something as a gift.

It’s disgusting race mixing is 🤮
