In the new episode of the program "You Want to Date", viewers witnessed the matchmaking between Nguyen Doan Phuong (47 years old, primary school teacher in Dong Nai) and Doan Ngoc Thao (40 years old, working in the field of tourism in Dong Thap). Despite many similarities and receiving support from relatives, the two still decided not to press the dating button at the last minute.
Appearing on stage, the bride's family impressed with their openness and humor when admitting that the main purpose of coming to the program was to meet MC Quyen Linh. Her sharing made the studio burst into laughter. Ngoc Thao currently works in the field of tour organization since 2009 and regularly leads tours abroad.
Speaking about herself, she said her advantage is being honest, true to the personality of people in the Mekong Delta. However, she admits that she is hot-tempered because of the "Fire Network". Previously, Ngoc Thao got married at the age of 27 and divorced 4 years ago. According to her, conflicts in family life, especially views on raising children, caused the marriage to break down.
On the groom's side, Nguyen Doan Phuong is a primary school teacher with 23 years of teaching experience. In addition to teaching, he also does business to increase income. He said that he knows how to cook, takes care of housework and always maintains his word in life.
The male teacher's love life also went through many ups and downs. He had two broken marriages and raised his daughter alone when she was only 2 and a half years old. His daughter is now 17 years old.
Sharing about her life partner model, Doan Phuong hopes to find a woman who knows how to manage the family, accompany and sit down together to resolve all disagreements in life instead of choosing to leave when conflicts occur.
Meanwhile, Ngoc Thao frankly admitted that her specific job makes her often go on business trips, with little time to take care of the kitchen. "I only know how to enjoy, not how to cook. I like a man who cooks for me," she said.
When chatting deeper, differences in life views gradually became apparent. The bride's family said that she is passionate about traveling and often has to travel. At times, she goes abroad twice a month. Therefore, she hopes that her future partner can understand and create conditions for her work.
Conversely, the male teacher said he wants to build a stable home after many years of hard work. He believes that men must be the economic pillar in the family, and women should spend more time on family life.
Another obstacle is future plans. Ngoc Thao said that her son is still young and is in 6th grade. Therefore, she plans to wait until her son enters university to think about remarrying.
In the sharing with the program, Doan Phuong's relatives all praised him a lot. The aunt said that the male teacher is hardworking, loves his son, does not mind housework and currently has a stable economic life. In particular, his daughter also expressed sympathy for the bride's family when asked about her feelings. Meanwhile, the representative of the bride's family was also impressed and had a lot of sympathy for Mr. Doan Phuong.
Although the conversation took place quite openly, even the groom's family showed sincerity with an exchange song on stage, the two still did not press the dating button when the decision time ended.
The result made many viewers regretful. However, the two characters still happily kept in touch, considering each other as friends after the program.
