Parent since my father already passed away. My mother is 63 years old. Im 31 and she never neglected me in anyways but she always bosses me around. I think she will reach late 70s and early 80s since she has diabetes and her twin sister has cancer. Two of my aunts got diabetes. But she plans to retire in Australia maybe and I will be left all alone. My problem is I am not sure if Im able to survive by myself. How do I find a wife?

how have your asian parents not been trying to find a match for you since you were 18? my mother has been showing me "nice" girls, except she continually gets big things wrong. like i'm in america and only speak english, and she can finds girls overseas who can't speak english and/or don't want to come to america

then she's like "go out and date anyone you want" then continually speaks bad about certain big groups of people because she's of the older generation and doesn't care about annoying people

The expectation is much greater. Like I'm taking care of my parents now, and people are like "lol you live with your parents". Man fucker. I have to take care of them and myself while your fake adulting asses barely can cover yourself. Pay all their bills. Take them to the doctor. Schedule everything. Take care of any issues that come up.

Living on my own was a million times easier than this shit.

It's understood that Asian children takes care of their parents and elderly until they past away. Unlike Western kids who just puts their parents in some old people home and gives no shits.
