No matter the circumstances, politeness is never superfluous.
First impressions are incredibly important, not only in life but in any situation.
Therefore, the first meeting leaves a very strong impression on others.
A good first impression will create a positive feeling in the other person. Conversely, leaving a bad impression means you won't have another chance to meet them again.
Similarly, in relationships, when discussing marriage, meeting the other person's family is essential. This is also an opportunity for your partner to "score points" with their family, and vice versa.
A young man living in Chongqing, China, drove six hours to meet his girlfriend's family. Upon arrival, he found his girlfriend waiting at the gate. He had bought a gift basket as a token of his appreciation for her family.
Seeing her boyfriend arrive, she quickly took the gift basket from his hand and walked ahead, leaving him bewildered behind.
He felt flustered by his girlfriend's actions and tried to pull her hand, but failed.
His girlfriend's actions made him feel disrespected, so he decided to drive home.
The girlfriend heard the car engine start and turned around to look, only to realize her boyfriend had driven home.
She didn't know why, why her boyfriend suddenly stormed off without coming inside.
Their homes were 600km apart, so he had to drive for six hours, starting at 3 a.m., to get to his girlfriend's house. When he arrived, he received no greetings or concern from his girlfriend.
On the contrary, his girlfriend was only focused on carrying the gift basket into the house. This made him realize her true feelings. That's why he drove home.
The girlfriend didn't know what she had done wrong. Netizens said that she was only focused on the gift basket and didn't pay attention to her boyfriend, which showed a lack of respect for him.
Additionally, one person argued that because she considered her boyfriend a close relative, she didn't take etiquette too seriously and acted that way, and that she should be understood.
Some people have a different opinion:
"When introducing her boyfriend to her family for the first time, the girlfriend should lead him into the house, not do it like that. I think the way her family welcomed him needs to be reviewed."
Whether it's your first time visiting your significant other's home or just visiting someone else's, as the host, you should offer a warm welcome.
That's what shows hospitality, and it's the kind of attitude a good family should have. Therefore, the girlfriend's actions were wrong, and the boyfriend's actions were right.
"The girlfriend's family didn't take her seriously from the first meeting. Furthermore, the girlfriend's lack of understanding of what caused her boyfriend to leave shows a significant lack of courtesy and etiquette; she needs to learn much more."
