¿Casarse para pagar $55.000 de deudas? Los jóvenes chinos dicen NO al amor... y al compromiso

Getting married to pay $55,000 in debt? Chinese young people say no to love and commitment. China, the second largest economy in the world with more than 1,400 million inhabitants, is facing a very serious demographic crisis. The marriage rate is falling sharply, the age to get married is increasing more and more, and the birth rate, well, so low that it's already a red alert level. Before, single men everywhere, because there were no women. But now, even if you publish pretty girls, young, with studies and good work, no one pays attention to them. Instead, it is enough to publish a boy born in 1995 who has a house, See? The wind has changed direction. In the end, are there more boys or girls going on blind dates? I've been a matchmaker for nine years, and today I finally dropped 20. There are more girls. Why do I say that? In my area, the numbers are even, like 1 to 1, but in the area of ​​a colleague, the proportion is 5 girls for each boy. It's not a joke, it's true. I recently published some girls born in 2000. I thought they were great, and I put them in the group with my colleagues. I told them, hey, I know some very pretty girls, if anyone is interested, I'll contact you. I thought it was going to be a trend, that my colleagues were going to beg me to meet them. But what's going on? It's been like 10 days, and no one wrote to me. I published them on the Internet. See for yourselves, they have good conditions, they are young, they have studies, decent income, good work, and no one even asked me. Yesterday I published a normal boy, born in 1995, with a house. My God, right away I got 7 or 8 messages wanting to make the connection. And the guy is not even that tall, he measures 1.73. My God, I never thought that a boy like that would be so premium. Did things change? Did the wind turn? I asked my colleagues, hey, I have several girls, don't you want to? Send me some guys from there to make the crossing. And seriously, I have proof, I recorded the screen. My colleagues told me, there are too many girls, we don't even reach the ones who paid. How are we going to take care of the free ones like yours? I told them, well, if you have guys, send me. There are too many girls here, and they sent me more than 10 at once. Among the girls who sent me, the oldest was born in 1991. The youngest in 2002. There's everything, pretty like queens of beauty. Adorable, with good work, car, house, ideal body. They have it all, and they are still single. More than 10 girls, check them out if you want. They are all on my phone. This is crazy, really crazy. Should I get more guys with good conditions to grow my business? Really? Now with the economy so difficult, the guys with good income and skills are overpriced. Even those who only have stable work, no house or car debts, are also sought. Many girls are now very realistic. They don't care if the boy is handsome or how tall he is. As long as he has money, they all fight him. My God, there are few men and many women. Now with the crisis, girls want to go on dates or look for a partner more than before. I'm not exaggerating, what do you think? Now families with male children are no longer as desperate as before. Before, when the children reached the age of marriage and still had no partner, the parents got super anxious. They ran everywhere looking for matchmakers. But as soon as they talked about marriage, dowry, buying a house or car, their faces fell, they sighed non-stop. The wedding was celebrated, the son got married, yes, but the house was empty, without a penny. Some families even owed up to their necks just to get their son married. And after the wedding? They lived worried, afraid that their daughter-in-law would not be happy and leave. But now it's different. Many parents on the boy's side are already well awake. If the bride's family asks for $12,000 to $16,000, there are families that simply say, thank you, but no. If the bride wants her name to be on the house deed, the other side says directly, no way. The attitude is clear. If we match, we get married. If not, nothing happens. If the girl demands the five pieces of gold without negotiation, the boy answers, well, I won't marry, that easy. I've met many older women who are still single. Most think that getting married won't improve their lives, that it won't give them anything. For them, marriage doesn't make sense. These women live in a somewhat selfish way, although very refined. If they get married, it's to live better than now. But the truth is that many are full of debts and their life is not as happy as it seems. Don't be fooled by seeing them drive a Mercedes, a BMW or an Audi. They hardly have any cash. These women, in addition to being older and still single, never stop to think. Born in 1982, 1984, 1986, I've traveled all over the country and this is the twelfth point of marital encounters I come to. All have the same requirements. That the man has a university degree, a house, a car, that he is handsome, positive, with a stable job. But why would a man like that have to choose a woman from 1982, 1984, 1986 or 1989? They have money. They're not crazy. They can easily get a 20-year-old girl. If a 20-year-old and a 40-year-old have the same conditions, why would they choose the 40-year-old? These women never put themselves in the other person's shoes. They don't accept aging. They don't accept losing. The reason is not that men don't have money. It's that they see a lot of risk. They spend a lot of money on getting married and if they get divorced later, they lose the money, they lose the woman and the house is in ruins. Who wants to live like that? It's better not to get married. Young boys are now also afraid of marriage. Instead of spending everything to bring a princess home, they prefer to be single and live in peace. Now even the parents have changed their minds. If the son does not find someone he likes, it is better for him to stay single And you still dare to raise your voice with me? An employee gets paid. But me? What do I get married for then? To wash the clothes? Cook? Take care of the children? If this is not being a free maid, then what is it? My God, you speak as if your teeth had not yet come out, girl. Let's see, why don't you change this role with your boyfriend? You go out to make money and I stay at home taking care of you as a maid. You always say you're being a free wife. Free in what? You didn't ask for a dowry? You didn't ask for a house and a car? You didn't demand gold and diamond rings? And is there any maid who insults her boss like you insult? You still say you don't have a salary? Then tell me, where does the food and expenses you use come from? Does your boyfriend give all his salary to a maid? And besides, is there a maid with the air of a queen like you? I don't understand. Taking care of your own children, cleaning your own house, and that seems to you to be being a free maid? I'm sorry to tell you this, but do you think anyone can be? Or without? Who hires a maid as lazy as you? All day talking nonsense. I'm serious. Nowadays hiring a good domestic worker costs like six or seven thousand yuan a month. So shut up already. And if you really think that being a domestic worker gives you so much money, then go ahead, do it. Sister, make yourself rich. We all trust you. But are you sure? Think about it. Your parents pamper you, your boyfriend pampers you, your husband supports you. But out there, no one is going to treat you like that. Seriously. In 2024, only 6.1 million couples in China registered to get married. A drop of 20.5% compared to last year. And that last year was already very low. Now, even worse. It's the lowest figure since 1986. Do you remember 2013? At that time, 13 million couples got married. Today, not even half. Only in the second quarter of 2024, 1.46 million marriages were registered. 18% less than the same period last year. That number is only higher than that of the fourth quarter of 2022, when the whole country was fighting COVID-19. But it doesn't end there. The average age to get married also skyrocketed. In 2010, people got married at 24.89 years old. By 2020, it went up to 28.67. Almost four years later. The reason? Youth study longer, start working later, and the economic pressure weighs like a rock. They get married late, have children late, or just don't have them. Result? Aging of the population, less labor force, and the pension system is screaming for help. In the face of such a complicated situation, the Chinese government didn't sit still. They got everything out of it. They extended the marriage permit days to 15 or up to 30 days. They simplified registration procedures. There are even cities that propose to lower the legal age to get married to 18 years old. Some cities even offer subsidies. 10,000 yuan for the first child. 50,000 yuan for the second. Sounds good, right? But in the end, all this is like a drop in the ocean. Because the real problem is not the lack of money, but the lack of faith in marriage. See how things are? Getting married in China is no longer just out of love. It's like a commercial deal. A very high-risk deal. Men are afraid of becoming automatic cashiers. Women are afraid of becoming free housemaids. It's the reality of millions of Chinese young people trapped between the weight of money, the traditional mentality, and the chaotic rhythm of modern life. Meanwhile, the marriage rate is falling, the population is aging, and the government keeps turning it around. If the mentality does not change, if economic pressure is not alleviated, then getting married will continue to be an impossible mission. And what do you think? If you were there, would you dare to get involved in this marriage game? Leave it in the comments.
