At the age of 37, Nguyen Huynh Phuong Thao (Head of Administration - Human Resources Department, currently living in Ho Chi Minh City) appeared on the stage of the program "You Want to Date" with a radiant smile. However, her sharing about her love story surprised the two MCs when for 37 years, she had never experienced any love affair.
Speaking about the reason for being single for a long time, Phuong Thao confided to the MC: "It's very difficult to do human resources, isn't it, everyone is afraid... My shortcomings are probably because I'm too picky, considered partly worried, too meticulous".
On the other side of the fence, Hoai Bao (37 years old, bank credit officer in Lam Dong province). He had a deep love affair lasting 3 years as a student but had to stop because his ex-girlfriend moved to Germany to settle down. When asked about the criteria for choosing a partner, Hoai Bao simply shared with the MC: "I am a neat and tidy person, and I want my girlfriend to dress simply and neatly, being good at cooking is also a good point. If possible, you two cook together, share with each other, I will not impose it".
Although finding harmony in neat living thinking and progressive spirit, the geographical distance between Lam Dong and Ho Chi Minh City quickly became a difficult problem. Phuong Thao frankly expressed her opinion to the groom's family: "Actually, I never thought before that I would leave Ho Chi Minh City and move to a place far from my parents to live. I never thought about it, but I don't know what the future will be like.
Before the bride's family's concerns, Hoai Bao hesitantly offered a plan: "At the weekend, if work is not too busy, I will take advantage of arranging to go down to Ho Chi Minh City... I will try to go down at least once a week". However, this somewhat fragile arrangement is not enough to create peace of mind for a girl who is inherently cautious and calm.
Entering the time of direct conversation, when mentioning marriage, Phuong Thao maintains a very realistic perspective: "The important thing is whether we are compatible or not, we can decide. Because marriage is a lifetime, so we must find the right person.
At the decisive moment, the lights from Phuong Thao's side were not on. MC Quyen Linh and Ngoc Lan expressed regret but also sympathized with the girl's decision, because the geographical distance and hesitation from the groom's family were not enough to remove accumulated concerns.
