WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“I am being realistic with you: don't expect marriage from this.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Dating for Results (冲着结果去)

In Chinese dating culture, romantic relationships are traditionally judged by whether they 'produce a result' (lead to marriage), so explicitly stating a relationship lacks that guarantee is a serious pragmatic step.
