Re: International Marriages

That isn't the case so much really. I've been in China for 5 years and I know, literally thousands of gals who wouldn't dare marry a laowai, waiguoren or gweilo!

Re: International Marriages

I guess it is more the big cities, I have only met one girl in Shanghai who would not like to marry a laowai. Some of them are quite obsessed by the idea. It has almost become a fad.

Re: International Marriages

A lot of my female students "say" they'd like to marry a foreigner or even that they love me....but I merely tell them that they're in love with an idea. Really, many of the young ones here have no concept of love and just romanticise. They have no idea of the problems involved and only see themselves either being out of China or living a life of relative comfort while in China, but always with the goal of travelling abroad one day. It's not as you think Sam........I have taught thousands of such people of the years and it's always the same.

Could you please explain then, I would love to hear your take on it seeming as you have lived here 5 years. From my limited experience I thought that Chinese women saw it as a way out of their current life or in some cases it was because all their friends were doing it.

Cheers

Re: International Marriages

Various forms of international migration have contributed to the transformation of marital patterns. International marriage markets, the separation of spouses as a result of economic migration and the emergence of high-mobility forms of employment have all changed the environment in which people have formed their relationships.

Multiple Streams of Income, best work from home business strategy

Until recently I thought earning online, or creating a home based small business as an impossible task. Lately after interacting some of the industry experts, I developed a methodology to earn continuous stream of income. The mantra is to earn money thorugh multiple streams, this will cut down on the risks involved. Do check my site, where I have listed out all free and easy money making oppotunities, checkEarn Easy Online Money. Do feel free to comment about the methods, your feedback is important for me. Regards
