A single mom with two youngsters, I lately met a South Korean man who’s 5 years older than me, single, and childless.
My eldest little one is at college, and the youthful one is in highschool. My husband handed away when our youthful child was simply over a 12 months previous, and I’ve been a single father or mother since then. My job as a public officer brings in about VND10 million (US$411) month-to-month, making elevating two youngsters fairly difficult.
As my youngsters have grown extra impartial, I’ve discovered extra time for myself. Becoming a member of teams for single individuals worldwide, I’ve met new individuals, realized lots about totally different cultures, and broadened my horizons.
I began speaking with a South Korean man lately. He lives along with his aged mom close to Seoul and has a manager-level place at his firm, relatively than working in guide labor or engineering.
He has proposed marriage to me and has stated that my youthful little one and I can transfer to South Korea, as my older little one prefers to remain in Vietnam for profession prospects. He stated I can spend time studying the language and adjusting to South Korean life at first earlier than finally discovering a job in order that I can contribute to our household financially.
I love his dedication and his willingness to decide to spending the remainder of his life with me. Regardless of years of single parenthood, I nonetheless search companionship, particularly as my youngsters are actually extra self-sufficient.
Nonetheless, marrying a foreigner and relocating overseas is formidable to me. My information of South Korean life is proscribed, leaving me with considerations about potential challenges, together with employment prospects at my age. I can’t predict which obstacles I could must take care of after relocating there both.
Alternatively, staying in Vietnam means persevering with my present job for about 5 extra years after which having fun with a modest, peaceable retirement.
What ought to I do? Can somebody, particularly these with expertise in South Korea, give me recommendation?
