Re: Indonesian man, 26, marries beautiful English lady, 21
I sometimes think Asian(F)/Western(M) relationships can work well because Asian women come with low expectations of men and Western men with low expectations of women (from their own cultures). Thus both have potential upside in the cross-cultural relationship.
Unfortunately it works in reverse with Asian(M)/Western(F). She is unhappy that he won't help with the cleaning etc (as she has been brought up to expect) and he is unhappy that she expects him to, etc etc. There are honourable exceptions but disappointment often ensues.

Yeah, I don't get why this has made such a sensation in Indonesia.. Haven't they had inter-racial marriages before? Or is it coz she presumably not moslem?
By the way, she looks like a doll in the first pic.

This. More so in a moslem culture and environment. Maybe she will convert to Islam like Sinead O'Conner..armchairlawyer wrote: ↑Fri Dec 21, 2018 1:17 pm I sometimes think Asian(F)/Western(M) relationships can work well because Asian women come with low expectations of men and Western men with low expectations of women (from their own cultures).

It says in the article she did convert to Islam.
But she is not wearing a head scarf in many of the photos.
Maybe he is not a strict Muslim.
I am interested to see how this relationship goes in future years.
Who is the little girl? Maybe his daughter from a previous relationship.

That's his other wife.
