关于婚礼的中西文化差异

Hi there, 

I'm a British Black guy and I've been dating my Chinese girlfriend for over a year now. 

She is a international student. She moved in with me with 2 months of knowing each other.

She wants to know if we have a future together. 

We had an argument recently as we wanted to talk about marrying. 

I wanted to discuss with her how we can plan financially and how we can help each with mortgages¹, bills and food. My Girlfriend said that in Chinese 

culture that the man should pay for the house and that she will play no part in helping² out at all. 

She also mentioned that in China when the man gets paid all the money goes to the woman account³ and she will sort out the bills. 

I'm a western guy and this came as a big shock to me what I was hearing. I thought a couple should share all responsibilities⁴ together. 

I love my girlfriend and her parents are totally happy with us being together and I would like to see a future with her. 

Can someone please give me some advice on Chinese culture and the roles a man and woman play in marriage. 

How can we compromise⁵?
