The program "You want to date" broadcast on November 23 continues the matchmaking journey led by MC Quyen Linh and Ngoc Lan, bringing the story of connecting Mr. Tu Quoc Tien (51 years old), hotel manager in Phu Quoc, and Ms. Tran Thi Thanh Tinh (38 years old), a freelancer in Ho Chi Minh City.
The sincere conversation between the two guests opened up new hope for adults who are still looking for happiness after many incidents.
In the interaction with the MC, Quoc Tien shared that he experienced many shortcomings in his childhood and youth when his father passed away early and his mother passed away 18 years ago. In 2004, the bankruptcy incident caused him to collapse and develop feelings for each other, thereby ending his relationship with a woman. He had been in a relationship for 3 years but admitted that he was not capable of bringing a stable future to the other person. Later, even though they met someone else, the two did not go far because their feelings were not deep enough.
At the age of 51, Quoc Tien said he no longer has to put too many criteria or expectations, but only hopes to find someone who can accompany him from the number 0. Listening to his story, MC Quyen Linh commented that the groom had gone through many years of loneliness and should open his heart to find spiritual support.
On the girl's side, Thanh Tinh said that she has been a single mother since 2018. She took responsibility for her broken marriage because she was "too strong", sometimes lacking sharing with her partner. She currently lives with her 15-year-old son and is financially stable. What she hopes for in her partner is a calm, mature personality and enough courage to build a future together.
When the fence opened, the conversation between the two became more open. Thanh Tinh expressed his sympathy for Quoc Tien's sincerity and courage - who alone overcame many difficulties. For her, a relationship that wants to last long requires respect and sharing.
In response, Quoc Tien said that his age was no longer suitable for adventure, but he believed that he could become a solid support if both of them looked forward to each other.
Referring to the fact that the girl already has her own child, Quoc Tien expressed a very clear point of view: "I not only go to find a husband, but also find a father who is brave enough and tolerant for my child. I lost my father and worshiped my stepfather until now, so I understand how important that is. He said he would consider Thanh Tinh's child as his own and not focus on the past marriage.
When asked about starting a career in Ho Chi Minh City, Quoc Tien frankly said that he was rebuilding his career so he did not have much in hand. Currently, his work in Phu Quoc is the main source of income, but in the future he will still head to Ho Chi Minh City and be ready to move to visit his girlfriend if both of them move forward.
MC Quyen Linh once again reminded him to be more decisive when he is over 50 years old, especially if he wants someone to accompany and take care of his family. Quoc Tien affirmed that he was serious about the relationship and clearly understood his responsibility towards his girlfriend's stepchild in the long term. At the end of the meeting, both pressed the button to agree.
