In the new episode of "You Want to Date", the couple Mr. Dinh Manh Tung (37 years old, office worker in Ho Chi Minh City) and Ms. Nguyen Thuy Dung (36 years old, accountant) attracted attention with their simple but contemplative love story.
Opening the program, Mr. Tung created a good impression with the image of an independent, gentle and honest man. He said he came to Ho Chi Minh City at the age of 18 and built his own life. Meanwhile, Ms. Dung also shared that she is a person who knows how to take care of her family, loves cooking, yoga and aims for a balanced lifestyle.
The common point of both is that they both went through a deep love and aimed for marriage. Mr. Tung recounted a love story 10 years ago, lasting about 2 years but unable to reach a complete ending due to the girlfriend's family circumstances encountering upheavals. "That love was not wrong, it was just not the right time," he expressed.
On Ms. Dung's side, she said that she used to love someone but could not continue because of geographical distance and lack of time for each other. After that, despite getting to know some more people, she still could not find harmony.
When talking about the criteria for choosing a partner, Ms. Dung wants a man who is knowledgeable, sincere, responsible to his family and especially knows how to share housework. Meanwhile, Mr. Tung is looking for a gentle but not passive woman who knows how to manage the family and has understanding.
At the meeting, both were commented to be quite suitable in terms of criteria. Ms. Dung assessed Mr. Tung as "gentle, honest, reliable", while Mr. Tung also praised the gentleness and femininity of the other. The atmosphere became comfortable when the two exchanged views on life, work and future orientation.
Notably, Mr. Tung scored points when he affirmed that he can do housework thanks to being trained by his family from a young age. Meanwhile, Ms. Dung emphasized her desire to build an equal family where both share responsibility.
Although there are many similarities, the emotional factor becomes the biggest barrier. When asked about the final decision, Ms. Dung frankly said that there was no "touch" so she could not press the button. "I think you are a very good person, but I am afraid of making a hasty decision when there are no clear emotions," she shared.
Before this choice, Mr. Tung respected the opponent's decision and maintained a calm attitude. Both ended the meeting in a civilized, gentle manner, while still leaving open the possibility of finding out more outside the program.
