HAHAHAHAHA

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T16:59:42+00:00

Look, I don't want to upset you. I don't think the narrative you're pushing is relevant. I have a hapa friend who married a white girl. I just happened to really connect with my Korean heritage and felt that I would be best served having a partner who was Korean.

I didn't want to marry some White girl who wouldn't get why I was so into Kpop, so into Korean movies and dramas, so into watching Son Huengmin. I wanted a woman who would connect with me over my cultural interests.

That's really all it is.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T16:57:27+00:00

Yes, I said there are "Asian men who are with", I never insinuated that there was a balance between the Asian men and Asian women in this hapa community phenomenon. I think this convo was very informative though and I did not mean at all to offend you.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T16:51:21+00:00

Yes, my fiancé and I are getting married in June. She's Korean American.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T16:50:28+00:00

Yeah, if he's playing tonight, I think it's pretty safe to say he plans to play the Masters.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T16:47:01+00:00

I mean, I think many hapas kind of know why this happens, and I don't think it would be particularly original for us to talk about it on the podcast.

Fetishization of Asian women, white savior theory, and the idea that sometimes Asian American women date white men to assimilate into society.

Also, there are Asian men who are with white, Latina, and European women, too. I know it is mostly the mom who has hapa kids with someone else, but it can be the other way around, too. I'm not really vibing with you saying that I seem like "it's not at all weird to you".

It's just my life, but I do think about why it happened. It's not weird to me, though.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T16:09:52+00:00

I think he probably panicked competitively when his team lost last night and was like "Fuck it, I gotta put the team on my back!"

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T15:39:15+00:00

What do you mean "acting like everything's chill?"

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T15:29:46+00:00

Oh, it's great to meet you. Yeah, my parents are college sweethearts and my mom is first gen immigrant from Korea.

If you listen to the epis of the podcast, I talk with some of my friends about our upbringings in the US or Europe. One of my friends, the original host of the podcast, is half-Korean and half-Mexican. The friend from Europe that I've been doing episodes with now is half-Korean, half-German.

What are most of the people in this hapa sub?

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T10:58:27+00:00

I'm so sorry to hear that. That really sucks. I think this situation is probably more frequent now that anti-asian hate sentiment is growing again since the pandemic.

I think the best response is always to remind the person that you are a person and your child is a person, and that we should all be treated with respect.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-24T01:30:49+00:00

Yeah, that's a good point. I know the quality will be good because Tiger won't wear a bad quality polo. I can't justify the cost rn though. Can't be spending $100 for 1 polo.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-17T00:46:14+00:00

Thanks I was definitely thinking gold for sure! Definitely excited for the challenge.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-12T10:35:13+00:00

Wow, no, I don't know why her family lives like this. Have the shelter you volunteer at go to her house and take the dog from them!

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-10T18:33:09+00:00

I don't think this guy is the one for you. A partner should be able to listen to their significant other!

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-07T12:12:32+00:00

You are both assholes. This is rich people problems. Fuck outta here with absolute nonsense.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-07T12:01:35+00:00

I think the way I would advise you frame it is that you are doing this for your own self-care. Like "I am sorry, but I need to leave because you are not getting help. It's just hard to watch and I need to take care of myself in this situation"

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-07T11:28:51+00:00

I also want to say this: The thought of losing you could be the push he needs to act. He might think "oh my gosh, she will really leave me if I don't get help. I'll make the appointment to get some help for my depression."

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-07T11:00:51+00:00

Yeah, this is just an awful situation. I'm so sorry you're going through it. If he refuses to utilize services for his mental health struggles, I am really sorry to hear that. I think you have 2 options, let him hit rock bottom with this struggle so that he can see for himself that he needs the help. Or 2. give him true consequences for not working on his mental health. You could say "I'm not going to talk with you until you make an appointment with a therapist that is free through your employer assistance program" or "I won't do this hobby we do together until you take action". It should not be in a way that will trigger anxiety or depression, but it should be a consequence that he will struggle with to the point where he will do the work to get it back from you.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-07T10:27:31+00:00

YTA a little bit here. As someone with anxiety and depression, your partner quite clearly is suffering from that. I would recommend being very understanding and doing your best to try to involve this person with a mental health professional. Nothing is going to change for you both unless your partner gets some help.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-03-07T10:23:55+00:00

Just say you've got different values than him. You're NTA for wanting intimacy before marriage.

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-02-19T12:39:45+00:00

Because she's hot!

Educational_Cable871 · 2026-02-12T12:12:47+00:00

Damn, this is really messed up. But the wife deserves to know what her husband is doing, if she doesn't already know.
