    Are Chinese people too shy to express their love?

    Hello, this is my first post here. I have a question. Are Chinese people too shy to express their love?

    I have a friend who has been dating a Chinese man for two years. My friend told me that the man loved her very much. He had done almost anything for her: sending gifts to her on valentines’ day, cooking Chinese food for her. Nevertheless, the Chinese man has kissed her. He has even never expressed “his affection” to my friend directly and explicitly. I am not sure if he has ever stated “ I love you” to my friend. Transparently, he wants to be with my friend and my friend falls for him. However, my friend talked about him yesterday. She just can not understand why it is so hard for Chinese man to express their love to their gals. Does it have something to do with traditional Chinese culture? I have heard that Chinese men are often reserved.

    I discussed it with my Chinese friends and they all said it\'s for older generation. For young people, they dont hesitate to express their love when it\'s needed

    I know it from chinese girls and they are shy in showing afection to the one they love. So kissing or touching in public (i mean holding hands or hand on the lap) is a thing they only do if you \"force\" it and then they sit around and look as every moment somebody would come and arrest them.
    With other couples i saw i have seen the mostly the girls are shy in this part and the boys more or less force it.
    From this and other things i got the impression that chinese man like it to \"dominate\".
    So i also guess that chinese man are normaly not soooooo shy as your example. but of course there are many different chinese....
