thank you for above posts to encourage me a lot.i noticed that most members here are american man ,disscussed about their storis with chinese women,maybe some of you met "bad women",but one thing is same:all your guys like chinese women,so can meet here. my sotries,even now ,i don't know what is going on . due to my job(i working in intrnation-trade company,hae deal with usa and european countries),i have more connection with western people,i feel western people are very gentaleman,and wide-heart which i really appreciated much.so i wanna.... anyway,i met a amrecian man,first time,he came here,i covered all the expense in china,hotel,food,travelling to beijing...(coz two reasons:1.he told me his store biz is very slow,short of cash,2.i think he spend ticket fee to come here,and i have the ability to afford this),also i thought money,is earned by person. and second time he came here,also same reason,i coverd everything,but he said he need go to seoul to visit his friends dicussing about new biz,want to borrow about $4500 from me,be honestly i not like this,but he,a big man,already opened his mouth,i no like hurt him also,so i think just like gambling(he promised pay back end of Jan,2008),and he is first man i met online,really heavy shocking if he cheated me,i 'd rather just believe most humen being inthe world is good.but until now,no payback,he said he would come china to see me end of last month,but on the last day,he left message to me,something happen with his son,so delayed ,until when?God know. but i am ok ,i am stronger enough.storm ,come,i not scared. all of you,if have some confused about chinese women thinking or others things,can ask me,i will try my best to explain in a fair,middle point. thanks drew send me message,but ihave no any evidence about borrow money,so can do nothing about this matter. one caution to all you,one chinese idiom"men dang hu dui",mean for couple,both family must match each other,when i was 20's,i thought it is compeltely wrong concept,but now i agreed it at least 80%. when you met you g/f in china,you need see her family,if her family is kind,wealthy,she can havewell-education,she is not only starring at your wallet(in most case,it is correct,but not all). i read another post here about his first visiting to china,but struggled with woman's son using knife,if i were he,after first breakfast costing rmb900,i flight back right away... ok,thank again for all you reading my post good lucky for all of us.
