A few western friends, who are married to Chinese Nationals, get lessons in both spoken and written Chinese from their wifes.
My wife does not do this. She is reluctant to teach me, for two reason.
1. I am not a good linguist. So she gest fustrated trying to teach me. She can't explain it to me, even though her English is perfect.
2. I am already too independent of her with my limited Chinese. What would I get up to if my Chinese was better?

Nope, I asked my wife many times.
She is just WAY too lazy when it comes to this... or maybe she doesn't want me to learn to assert some kind of control but I learn on my own anyway.
its easier for them to speak english to us so they dont make the effort to teach. Ive tried with many gf's but they always go back to speaking english and i get tired of saying "TELL ME IN CHINESE".............or i say say in english then in chinese........damn they dont want to make the f effort.
Yes, she helped me, no need anymore.
I know other people in the same situation.
Then I know some who consider their Chinese partner as an instant translator.
"I won't learn no chong chong, I have a slave to translate for me".
Better learn to be independent.
