Aaron Kwok: “I Will Marry Before Turning 50!”
Yesterday, Aaron Kwok’s (郭富城) girlfriend, Lynn Hung (熊黛林), turned 31-years-old. In past birthdays, Lynn had celebrated with Aaron in a high-profile manner. Although Lynn did not have a big birthday celebration this year, she happily posted a photo of her “entire family” in which she hugged her two dogs, Cookie and Cocoa. On her blog, Lynn wrote, “I have an extra princess now. Cookie gained weight again!” Lynn noted that she had an enjoyable birthday on her blog, “I had a very happy birthday! Thank you everyone for your well wishes. I got them all!”
Aaron Kwok Wishes to Get Married Before 50
Earlier, there were rumors that Aaron Kwok would marry Lynn Hung this year. Appearing at a Guangzhou promotional event, Aaron indicated, “I have always placed marriage in my life plans. However, I still feel that there is a small wish inside my heart which has not been fulfilled. I do want to fulfill the responsibility of being a husband and a father. I will get married before 50-years-old. It is also possible that I get married after I turn 50. Many of my friends got married after the age of 50.
Born in the year of 1965, Aaron Kwok was 46 years-old this year. From a conservative estimate, Lynn Hung may have to wait another 4 years before officially tying the knot with Aaron!
Excerpt from Sohu.com
Jayne: IMO, men who do not wish to get married until a certain age (e.g. 40 or 50) value their independence too much. They want to preserve their self-identity greatly and do not wish to be attached to anyone yet.Will time truly be able to change their marriage tendencies?
If you love someone who is unwilling to give you a definite answer on when he is ready to get married, will you wait? 3 years? 5 years? 10 years?
How long have the couple been dating?
I believe Lynn started dating Aaron when she was only 24/25 years old, now she’s 31. She loves the guy, but I don’t think he loves her as much.
@Cloud: I agree with you. I don’t think he loves her that much because if he really into her, he must’ve realized that her biological mummy clock is ticking.
continue: and he will give her that wife status.
I agree that I think Lynn loves Aaron a lot more than he loves her. But then again, isn’t that how it is in most relationships and marriages? One person always loves the other one a bit more or at times a lot more than the other person.
would be interesting to see Arron and lynn together for years to come, but could relationship for them last a life time, or could it only be outside their industry? Arron looks that he aged so much than 2 -3 years ago!!
Nahhh he’s just a commitment phobe.
““I Will Marry Before Turning 50!””
So he will marry now? 49? 49 and 11 months? Is this his way of just giving an answer she wants to hear?
Shouldn’t it be “I will marry by the time I reach 50”? which makes more sense?
Funn,
I think Aaron is just avoiding the “shackles” of marriage. 50 is but a random number… what does he truly hope to accomplish before age 50 that will make he feel like he is ready for marriage?
IMO, if a man is past the “marriage bug” that bites around the 30s and moves past the 40s, then he would have gotten used to living a certain independent lifestyle already. Obviously, he’s been putting off marriage because he wishes to chase a certain lifestyle. In the end, it is about lifestyle preferences rather than career ambitions determining when a person wishes to get married.
Maybe Aaron wants to be like George clooney. No need to marry when u can just keep changing models. 🙂
I think ah Lynn shouldn’t hold her breath.
There are unsubstantiated rumours recently that Lynn’s mother met up with Aaron to discuss wedding plans but apparently her dowry demands were too high even by Aaron’s standard.
Really? If that were the case, then we can’t blame Aaron for putting off the marriage.
How many expensive sports cars has Aaron bought? He can surely afford the “lai gum”. Whether he wants to pay it is the question.
so lynns mom selling her like a commodity haha.
aaron prolly wants a new model after all
Aaron can sell one of his Lamboghinis then 😀
Sorry but I think even men have biological clocks. 50 is WAY to late even for a guy to get married. But then again, there have been many couples that just have kids, live together and do everything else before they officially get married. I wonder if marriage even means anything to some people anymore?? I guess some think that just dating and living together is good enough and don’t want to sign a piece of paper that will bind them or hold them down.
I personally would not be with a guy that refuses to marry me because what is the point of that?? That shows that he just doesn’t want to commit which is not a healthy thing for any relationship or marriage.
I can’t believe that Aaron had friends that got married after the age of 50?? Is he serious or just saying that?? Sorry but even for men, the latest age of marriage that I have heard was 45. Anything more than that means that they may not get married at all.
Maybe someone should send a copy of “he’s not into you” lolz
Yah that’s true. If a guy does that to you, he’s really not that into you.
If he finally does marry you, it’ll be like twisting his arm to do it.
Although I’m a fan of his. I have to agree with Funn. This guy really does seem to have commitment phobia.
I bet, when the time near, he will have more and more unfulfilled wish that he has to complete before marriage.
Iirc, his current unfulfilled wish is to star in a Broadway musical or something like that.
i honestly think kwok is way past his prime. to marry or not, who cares.
A lot of people say “What difference does a piece of paper make” and if you truly love another then living together is ok. Why go through all the fuss of church wedding or a register office and pay lots of money on reception etc…. I totally and very strongly DISAGREE.
If that is the case then why do people need certificates or a diploma or a degree when they graduate – afterall its still just a piece of paper. What about a driving licence as that is just a piece of paper also. All these “piece of paper” so to speak mean something. They are very important and not just a piece of paper. A marriage certiciate means commitment although in a lot of cases, it may not be for life. Some people will say that I say these things because I am a very happily married woman but I still believe in marriage. Its give and take and need lots of tolerance, understanding and love of course.
With regards to Aaron, I also think that he doesn’t really want to commit himself. Why wait till you are 50 for heavens sake. He may as well say that he may not bother. If I was the girlfriend, I would certainly not wait. Afterall, he may change his mind by the time he is 50 and then what…..
well certicates are only a piece of paper. a degree doesn’t mean that you should be qualified for a job and vice versa.
it’s the society that makes these “rules” that it’s important to have a degree. marriage is just a ceremony and useless if people are not in love with each other.
Certificates of education are VERY different than marriage certificates. You are comparing apples to oranges. There is no test to pass for love. There is no exam, no lessons, no skill required. Too many people get wrapped up in the marriage ceremony, in the event, and the “piece of paper” that they totally lose sight of what is truly important – which is their love for one another. Too much hype goes into the actual “wedding” event.
A simple visit to the justice of the peace costs about the same as a good meal out, and you can have the piece of paper. In my opinion, it is only a legality… I don’t need a piece of paper, or a ceremony to tell me who I love.
And by looking at the divorce statistics now a days, that piece of paper really hasn’t helped many people.
As to Aaron.. his comments about setting an age show more that he it still into himself more than anything.
I think that we have had this discussion before. If people are saying that the marriage certificate is just a piece of paper, then what about money?? Money is paper and it is really dirty paper as well, but yet people live and die for it…
But money carries perceived value 😉 I can walk into a store and use money to buy something I want. I’m not sure a vendor is going to accept my marriage certificate as payment for goods 😀
I guess those who said that foresee they will got divorce one day and avoid all of the financial hassle. Actually it is just not a piece of paper. For rich people it cost them a lot that piece of paper. I think that’s the reason why some hesitate to sign the paper.
If it is just a piece of paper why not just sign it.
@TVBfanatic,
You missed my point… What I meant was a piece of paper can have lots of power, such as a marriage certificate, your degree, money,etc… They are all forms of paper with different forms of power… Your marriage certificate is not just any old piece of paper. It is a piece of paper with POWER.
It isn’t the certificate that is important but the act of marriage and the revelation to the public you two are married that is important, at least from a traditional perspective. It tells ppl you are off the market, it warns ppl to change the way they should behave around such persons. Its also a signification to others about your devotion to your spouse. It’s a sign of responsibility, of devotion, of loyalty and of intimacy. And these signs have meaning not to the two ppl but to there position relative to everyone else in the society they live. But in modern times these signs aren’t as important due to the breakdown of tradition and the rise of new philosophies post modernity. So it’s really up to how you interpret what a marriage means. De facto relationships have already changed the dynamics at law, and civil unions will further reinterpret what a marriage certificate will mean.
Sorry – typed “certificate” wrongly above.
He thinks he’s still 25?
his girlfriend should find another man.why waste her youth waiting there are a lot of examples around woman marrying late and having problem with conceiving
bc he got the money
goodluck to her if money is the most important for her
i guess she loves him to some extent as well
he is not exactly bad looking and is plastic free…
he is really into himself kinda guy. Watch his interview b4. Even though he married her don’t think it will be the happy one. Is it just me or seems like most celebrity don’t have a happy marriage. It is just sad!.
Man let his woman wait in uncertainty
Man let his woman worry
Man let his woman jealous
Man let his woman feel unproductive
============================
These kind of man is…well…at least they have money.
Anyway, I think Kwok should marry now, his golden age passed (long ago), his still-look-okay does not cover him from the fact that he is old.
*These kind of men
He makes marriage sound like the way I feel about making an appointment to see the dentist… this week, to maybe in three weeks, then maybe next month… like it’s something he has to do, but doesn’t want to.
It he doesn’t wanna marry, then don’t. Marriage isn’t for everybody. Look at Brad and Angelina… perfectly happy in a committed certificate-less relationship.
If you are truly committed then why not just get married?? If you claim to be committed but yet refuse to sign that piece of paper, then I think something is really wrong…
The longer he waits the less likely he will want to marry her, it’s virtually an unstated truth for guys. You just get use to it one way or another. It’s like boiling soup, boil too long and you lose alot of the water, the ingredients become mushy or chewy and the whole soup loses it’s appeal. of course he may be telling the truth and he has some condition he must fulfil before marriage but thats just unlikely. Do you make it a condition to drink soup that you must get elected as chairman? Totally irrelevant consideration. If it’s not money or interest or health, there is no other good reason.
SDS,
Thanks for offering your perspective. I suspect it’s a lifestyle change that men such as Aaron do not want after marriage. It’s more about preservation of self-interests. Marriage involves a lot more compromise than a dating relationship does. Maybe Aaron knows all this and wants to delay it as much as possible. Maybe he doesn’t even want to get married. But when a man tells a woman that he doesn’t ever want to get married, it is rather discouraging as it may be considered lack of commitment.
From girlfriend to wife, many women also experience a dramatic shift in how they treat their men. Same thing for guys in their shift from boyfriend to husband. Is it simply a result of time? Or the expectations that come along with marriage? The responsibilities that a married couple may be more prone to deal with? The dynamics between a man and woman surely change after marriage.
Good points Jayne and I think that IF this goes on too long, Lynn Xiong may just find someone else that will commit. I really hope that Aaron realizes that if he truly loves Lynn that he should just marry her. Even if she does really love him, I don’t know if she will be willing to wait so long since her biological clock is ticking as well…
Maybe Aaron just doesn’t want to get married at all??
Marriage not impt for them.
They should have a beautiful baby together!
Seriously no comment on this guy and agree with Jayne that he has a phobia in commitment.
Aaron is another Ekin C. String people along and wasting their youth, beauty and time. Lynn, wake up and move on to someone who would think about you, cherish you and love you more than they love themselves. Don’t wast anymore time with him! Find love and happiest who will put in 1st!
The thing is if she wants marriage she should leave him because it is obvious that he isn’t planning to marry her or has been planning it. However if it’s about love it shouldn’t have to be about marriage. Just because you love someone doesn’t mean you need to marry them. Marriage doesn’t equal love.
I don’t know why people can’t understand marriage is just a union. There are rules within marriage people don’t follow anyway. Love your spouse until death, etc. Don’t cheat and a whole bunch of other things. In the end if one wants to get married and the other doesn’t then it’s obvious she needs to leave him but doesn’t mean there is a problem with how he is.
To say that is like saying that everyone that has a different set of values than you is different. I would love to get married but I also know people who are not married that are together and they are happy.
What happens even if they were married? Would her life really be better? Even if he were to have married her already. It really makes no difference even if they are the most compatible. Marriage should be about love. But love doesn’t equal marriage.
Marriage is the willingness to take that step to commit to a person. Marriage is easy but divorce takes a long time and a lot of messy procedures. After marriage, you can’t split whenever you like it.
To me, people who are unwilling to that take the step have the ‘easy come easy go’ mentality. They don’t want to take that step so that if later they want to separate, they can just do so easily.
I agree with Kidd and I feel it is sad that people are viewing marriage so negatively these days. I also don’t understand what is so scary about marriage. Honestly, IF you truly love a person that much and want to commit and spend the rest of your life with them, then why not just marry them?? I personally believe that if you don’t want to marry a person, then does that truly mean that you really “love” them? If you did, then the least you can do is to marry them. If you don’t, then I really question if you truly love a person or not.
@HeTieShou @Kidd
“I agree with Kidd and I feel it is sad that people are viewing marriage so negatively these days.”
It’s just an easier tendency to quit than to persevere, to run away from problems than to face them through. I’ll say that if a person has a weak tendency in quitting things in life, then maybe the person may be an “emotional quitter” and if not physically divorce, then to think about it often.
Perhaps some people quit their marriage too soon. I heard of friends’ friends who were only married for less than a year before divorcing.
We know that relationships require compromise, which everyone says is very hard. The problem is romantic love seems to conditional, that we need to feed off each other’s love and expect in return. If romantic love were more selfless like a mother loving a child, perhaps the compromise will be seen as more tolerant and divorce would occur less often.
From what I hear, the second marriage doesn’t get easier. The period after a divorce is especially isolating and lonely.
