Cultural differences often influence how emotions and concepts like love are perceived and expressed. In many Asian cultures, including Chinese, there is a greater emphasis on the collective and sometimes on the hardships or challenges faced in relationships, which might lead to a greater acknowledgment of aspects like disappointment in discussions of love compared to Western (e.g., American) narratives, which might focus more on personal happiness or fulfillment.
