Are Taiwanese girls generally more submissive compared to their Western counterparts?

So submissive women don’t deserve to have partners? There’s an old sock for every hole, or whatever it was that a well-known fm member used to say.

It all depends what you mean by ‘submissive’, surely. Plenty of people are happy to just drift though life having their decisions made for them, and that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re going to match up with some domineering asshole who treats them like a doormat. It just means their ideal partner will be happy to take the lead in making decisions.

I haven’t gone out with her for over 2 weeks as I found out lots of things that I didn’t like about her. She’s now pressuring me to have dinner again with her.

84

My girlfriend is only submissive in things she has no opinion or doesn’t want to make a decision on. Such as what to eat, where to go at the weekend etc etc.

That kind of stuff is given to me as the mans job. And driving etc.

But being submissive as in -doing what i say or not challenging my opinion on things she disagrees with. Absolutely not. The one who has to ‘submit’ more often than not is me. :smiling_face_with_tear:

85

Probably shouldn’t have done it the first time

86

There are no positives in noting previous errors. The main point is the OP doesn’t compound things by going for a second dinner date. I wonder whether he will?

87

And now has to say no very carefully…

88

Do it!

Then post about how it went on here.

89

It’s not going to go well is it? He already said there’s quite a few things he dislikes about her.

90

Yeah.
Do it.
And write about it, so others can learn from your actions.

She (my manager) exempted me from attending weekly dept. meetings.

93

she wants you all for herself
Now is the time to close the deal

94

she also told other managers that she is not my manager. I don’t know what to make of this.

Listen very carefully to the lyrics this song from 1975.

You made a fool of me
But them broken dreams have got to end

Hey woman, you got the blues
'Cause you ain’t got no one else to use
There’s an open road that leads nowhere
So just make some miles between here and there

There’s a hole in my head where the rain comes in
You took my body and played to win
Ha, ha, woman, it’s a cryin’ shame
But you ain’t got nobody else to blame

Evil woman
Evil woman
Evil woman
Evil woman

Rolled in from another town
Hit some gold, too hot to settle down
But a fool and his money soon go separate ways
You found a fool lyin’ in a daze

Ha, ha woman, what you gonna do?
You destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you
It’s so good that you’re feeling pain
But you better get your face on board the very next train

Evil woman
Evil woman
Evil woman (you’re an evil woman)
Evil woman

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Evil woman
Evil woman
Evil woman (you’re an evil woman)
Evil woman

Evil woman, how you’ve done me wrong
But now you’re tryin’ to wail a different song
Ha, ha, funny how you broke me up
You made the wine, now you drink the cup

I came runnin’ every time you cried
Thought I saw love smilin’ in your eyes
Ha, ha, very nice to know
That you ain’t got no place left to go

Evil woman
Evil woman
Evil woman (you’re an evil woman)
Evil woman

Evil woman (you’re an evil woman)
Evil woman (such an evil woman)
Evil woman (you’re an evil woman)
Evil woman (such an evil woman)

Evil woman (you’re an evil woman)
Evil woman (such an evil woman)
Evil woman (you’re an evil woman)

It turns out that my manager has known her current boss for quite some time. So my manager is well-connected at this company. They were previous coworkers. Therefore, if things go sour between me and my manager, then she has ways to get me in trouble.

97

Most companies that are sensible would require you or the manager be reassigned to a different department. This has conflict of interest written all over it.

98

Her current manager was the one who hired me at the start of this year. He hired her 2 months ago.

99

She told coworkers that she feels nervous, shy around me.

100

Ask her out for another meal and share a bottle of wine.

101

If things go sour between me and her, I think she might use her relationships with her higher-ups against me.
