All and all it is a hodgepodge of confusion that men have struggled with for thousands upon thousands of years.

With this specific girl I was ready to marry her. Well, at least act like it. She was probably the best girl I have met yet in China. But she didn't make the time to see me for me to make a move. Kinda hard when your ready to go but she is always busy.

So whatever, I've moved on. For now a 500ml bottle of booze will be a good enough lover tonight.


That's a bad idea. I personally think people who try to forget something by hurting themselves (numbing their feelings) is a bit immature. (no offense). It's ok to grieve for your loss, or find a friend to talk to, or even talk to a helpline.

1000% right


dito!

Don't occupy her time and spoil her future chances just because you want some company.
If you truly do have regard for this girl then let her go if she is just someone to date while you live in the 3/4 city.

I guess my next question is that, it is that normal for this to happen all the time. Pending I'm not the ugliest person in the world, why is it that I can't find a girl to follow through.

It's cake getting numbers, digits, QQ, weixin, but when it comes to starting a relationship, it never happens. It's odd. If there was signs it would be obvious. Dates go bad etc. But for the most part usually everything is hunky dory then it just stops.

If I lived in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen it would also be pretty easy to pick up girls, the bad ones. But I don't want that. So I am actually a good guy that doesn't want to hurt girls and just sleep with them, and I can't find one that wants that either. Kind of a juxtaposition don't you think.

It's frustrating. Of course I think I am super cool and a good guy, but why can't anyone else see that? My friend's wife is Chinese, she doesn't have any local friends or she would hook me up, even she is perplexed as to why in the hell I can't find a girl.


It is normal I think... there are so many awesome single girls out there... esp in big cities. So... don't think you're the only one being single in the world.

Sometimes it just happens, people might feel a bit attraction then as it goes, it just fades away. Perhaps you're not her type, perhaps she just wants to find someone who will definitely marry soon, perhaps she's just being polite to you. The movie 500 days with Summer is like that. When feelings fade, there is nothing we could do but to learn to let it go and move on.

Another thing is that, it could well be your frustration subconsciously affects the air you carry yourself. You might have done something that changed her mind, but you didn't realize that. It's hard to say judged this far.

I've encountered those things before too, and it makes sad as well. Then I just realize that I I have to let it go. After all love is free to go, if we don't give others freedom we won't be free either. So don't lose hope, but keep being a good guy who hopes for love and good relationship. It doesn't guarantee you a girlfriend soon, but it is simply good for your wellbeing.



I'm sure there are awesome girls out there in the big cities. Unfortunately I don't live in a big major city. Which is fine, it just narrows down the awesome girl count into oblivion.

I'm not sure if I subconsciously did anything. Pointless to ponder that question. I will say that if anything I was super happy. She was one of the first girls that I thought that I could actually be with. As in "with" I mean serious.

It's not a big deal. I was just blabbering on about why these things happen rather then being hung up on her.

All is well that ends well I suppose.

The bottle comment was sarcasm. Perhaps one shouldn't joke about those things.

Anter, I don' t know if you read the post in it's entirety but I didn't get the chance to start hogging her time. And even if I had, I would of did so with good intentions. I am well aware of what happens after dating a foreigner.

Nevertheless, perhaps one day I will be fortunate enough to hog one lucky Chinese girl's free time and maybe even ruin her chances of ever dating a guy again. Someday, yes someday.

Cheer up! You never know.. perhaps you will travel to big cities sometimes and meet someone there... who is willing to coming to yours! I have a friend (Chinese) who met her husband(American) in the airport (in US) once, they didn't contact each other for about a year, but one year later, she flied to t¡bet and married him there. Of course it seems all magic, but I am always touched by their story. They are now back to States and she's gonna have their fourth baby. Just don't let those disappointing and heartbroken moments ruined your good intention to be a good guy seeking real love. 8)
