Just go out with her a few times and if it doesn't feel right, break things off. Chinese girls are very understanding of this sort of thing.

Quit whining about floss! If the Chinese have gotten by without it this long, so can you.

Every Tuesday in China is "Naked Foreigner Day".  Show off your pride in being a foreign guest as well as your love for Chinese people by taking a nude stroll around town each week to celebrate.

Kevcom, I like No. 1 especially. The belief that a long-haired dictionary will be beneficial to one's language acquisition is incredibly widespread. and, in my opinion, incredibly false.

I disagree zero and kevcom. My "long-haired dictionary" has been incredibly beneficial to my language acquisition.

The key is that she doesn't speak English.

I agree about trusting people just because they are foreigners. That's just a stupid reason for trusting someone.

The higher a man's social rank is, the more aggressively you should flirt with his wife in front of him in public.  By doing so, you give him large amounts of face by indicating how desirable she is. afafafafaf

"You only thought you smelled burning when you stepped out on the balcony this morning to collect your laundry whilst noting you could but dimly squint through the malevolent orange-brown haze of a new day.  You will be happier if you tell yourself that blue skies only exist in photo-shopped pictures on the interweb and say something cheery like, "My land, it's foggy today!" whenever anyone passing you in the street coughs and expectorates a lungful."

Put that condom away. There hasn't been a case of herpes in a Chinese brothel since 1906.
