>>19766278I have a Japanese girlfriend, it will be one year in March 17th. We live together.
I've had two white girlfriends before, they were a fucking pain to deal with, always complaining, always bitching about everything and anything, most importantly, because our society is so prone to promiscuity, there was always the issue of them hanging way too much with one of their "guy friend".
I am enrolled in a PhD at ETHZ and previously studied at a similar level uni, two top tier schools at the top of European and World rankings that are very demanding, and this shit is taking away all my personal time, my white girlfriends would literally complain about me achieving what nobody in my family has ever achieved before, crying bitching and moaning about me not being present enough and using that as a reason to hang out around other men.
My current girlfriend cooks and seriously enjoys doing it (literally refuses that I cook dinner, I can do breakfast or lunch but she has to cook once a day). She works but believes that if one of us has to leave work to take care of a child, it will be her. She does all the household stuff, and while I do obviously help, she's okay with doing most of it, if it means I use that free time for my thesis.
It's a fair relationship, and we both try and help each other out, whereas I felt like setting up deals with my past girlfriends was necessary, and it felt more like negotiating a contract with a ruthless employer than actually trying to relieve stress from each other. It's not a zero sum game anymore, it's a situation in which we both do our best for one another.
She also likes sex which is good, dont know if this is cultural or not however.
