My long term friend, by the way, who is also from Shanghai and has a long-term western bf once told me that if the relationship did not work out, she wound never go for another western guy b/c of the cultural gap. If i am not mistaken, LZ is looking for a long-term relationship which may eventually lead to marriage. Just a piece of advice, be aware of "womanizer", or professional lover, who always says the exact right things.
As for cultural conflict, let's face it, don't tell me that there is no such thing between you and your shanghainese wife. You may say life is about compromise. Yes, compromise exists among same-race marriage, but it is harder between interrace couples. The old one gets, the hard it is to change someone. In other words, should the relationship goes to the right direction, LZ should be prepared to compromise a lot, even some of her fundamental principals which is often taken as granted when dealling with a chinese man.
