REALLY WANT TO ESCAPE...

What kind of family pressure are you experiencing?

Em oi!
"All that glitters is not gold"
I guess you are too young to decide your future now.If it's not a severe problem(we don't know your actual problem yet), try to solve and understand your parents.We cannot give you an exact guidance until you explain it fully. Here so many of girls came over from other provinces and living "Happily".Job is big problem everywhere. If you completed your study (don't know your qualification)and have a good degree or plus you can try some job here. Otherwise need to work for cheap salary as bar girl, or something like that. Anyway you need money for living anywhere whether it is Ha Noi or in Saigon. Please don't leap before you think carefully. City life is colorful but has many drawbacks.If you can find out a job from there, it's more easy to come and stay here. So no worries!

I'm 35, 3500 kms away from my mom and I still get pressure from my mom lol.

I don't even know how to tell her I've quit my job sold my houses so that I can be in Vietnam with the one I love. I know she will be furious but in a few days she will be calm again.

That's pretty much sums up every life decision I make and the outcome of it.

You feel pressure is good. That means you respect and know your parents care for you but don't want to hurt them emotionally. I find best way to get them over their pressure on you is to make your life better. Doesn't hurt to show them you're making life better financially too.

Hi Ricky,
Don't think like that. You are too young to do that. You have to think that your family is the best, your home is number one.
Your friend is number 2. You have to think carefully so you won't feel regret then.
