Important condition for marriage (chinanews.cn) Updated: 2006-08-18 15:12 They lived together just like a married couple, sharing joyful times. But
when Zhang mentioned about their marriage, she give a cold response. He asked
her time and again why she couldn't marry him, and she said bluntly, "I really
like you so I choose to live with you. If you want me to be your wife, you need
to have economic strength. Love does not mean everything. Without a house, I'm
afraid one day we will sleep on the streets."
Miss Xu told our reporter that "house is the most important condition for
marriage." She admitted she had such embarrassing experiences. She once had a
boyfriend and they had lived together for 3 years. But he came from a poor
family and couldn't offer her a house, and this became the main reason that they
parted company.
Xu's parents were ordinary workers, and all of their savings were spent on
her college tuition fees. The economic condition of her boyfriend's family was
even worse. His parents were laid-off workers, making their livings by selling
small merchandises. Xu and her boyfriend's incomes were not high, and thus they
couldn't get a loan to buy a house. She finally decided to leave her
boyfriend.
