I sometimes think about what would happen if I ever become a recognized artist, would I need any body guards? Would my girlfriend who swear to not marry me until I have a "more secure and stable" job suddenly want to marry me? Would my family finally think of me as a worthy member? Will my life be any different than what I have now?
Probably not.
I have learned many things all while adapting into this asian society I am somewhat familiar with now.
First, being rude is okay as long as you have no business with the said person or company. However, if you do, be polite because you might one day need their help.
I hope I am making sense with this.
Second, before you stick your nose in someone else's business, make sure if there is any liabilities you might endure later. Even if that is life/ death situation. Example: traffic accident, two elderly members of our society struck down by a car. Car driver standing looking at the said elderly members on the ground, not doing anything. People starting to come out of their life to check out the situation, but no one is taking action.
LIABILITY is spelled with L, I, A, B, I, L, I, T,and Y.
Third, you will never know as much as your girlfriend because evidently, she has been living here longer then you. Her word of wisdom counts, you don't. Your worldly experience don't mean shit, because this is Taiwan. And, she knows more about it than you.
