I am sorry, I have been busy trying to finish work before I leave for Beijing. I am going to visit one lady, I don't believe in visiting multiple ladies at once. I decided on a special lady in December, we started writing around November. We stopped using EMF around March. She registered with the agency in Baoding, which is about 2 hours away from Beijing, but she lives in Beijing. I am self employed which means I have flex time with my schedule. I am trying to complete as much work as I can before leaving  I used to work in the corporate world so I know it is not easy to take time off. I have been working as a financial advisor for about 4 years and this is going to be my first vacation time. I have been pretty much working  6 days a week finally this year things started to look better. I need vacation really bad, I need to be away from my e-mail and phone

We can sure meet in Beijing. My girlfriend is  shy, I am not sure if she will agree to a meeting but I will ask her.

Dumbo , what do you mean by , not sure she will agree to meet you . Your going for four weeks and it is only going to be over the phone , the communication ? Hehehe . You must mean , meet you at the Airport , right ?  So Dumbo , you'll have four weeks to get her out of her shyness , but don't forget you have 140 + brothas helping you with that . How can you not have a great time ?

Dumbo,
Welcome to our unique club. Congratulations on finding a keeper. I am pretty sure I will be visiting Beijing this summer sometime in late August. Wanted to know if you wanted to meet the infamous China Shark from Nashan, Shenzhen. I'm not sure what lady might or might be coming along with me right. Too much of a selection at the present moment. Also, I am going to visit my friend Wendy that I met when I first joined Chnlove over 7 months ago. Enjoy your well deserved vacation as well as your China doll. Country is beautiful you'll have a great time.
Good Luck
New Brother
China Shark Mike

I bought 6 more apples today. One apple a day for 6 days, and I am in Beijing. I have nothing planned for next friday or saturday. I will finish all my laundry, pack my clothes and reading material. Jian is concerned about the swine flu. According to her if someone is sick on the plane, they will quarantine 3 rows front and 3 rows back of the sick person. My seat is on the last row so I only have to worry about the front 3 rows.

Hi Dumbo I arrive in China same day as you but at the other end of the country.  
Little chance of us meeting up as I fly into Hong Kong - but have a great time.

[Hi,

I finally have access to this site. This is my 2nd day in Beijing. Everything is awesome.

When the airplane lands, we waited 5 minutes and 2 nurses came checked everyone body temp. They were very efficient. The line to pass thru for for flu is very slow, they check everyone, you need to give them a phone number and contact info in China. Some American tourist had the hotel name only, that slowed down the line. Then after spending all that time, my luggage was there and Jian and I meet for the first time. She was very nervous, but we hit it off right away. Due to swine flu, I can not see her son for 1 week. Her ex husband made this rule. I am fine with it, but I know Jian will start missing her son. She may have to leave me home and check on her son.

It is very hot in Beijing. The day that I arrived on Monday, the government announced price increases in gasoline effective Tuesday, so there were many line ups everywhere for people buying gas. I have registered with the local police station this morning.

jian, is like everything I expected, we spent many hours on the skype before, She is very romantic. She takes care of many small things, it is unbelievable. Her English is okay, but she does not have confidence. My first Chinese breakfast, she brought me Mcdonalds because she wanted me to adjust to China slowly. My fruit plate is always full, my cold water bottle gets filled up all the time. I helped here make some dumplings today, she was very impressed

dumbo,

Have a great time in Beijing. You have to try the Scorpion-On-A-Stick. The claws & tail is too crunchy but the body is tasty. Home-made dumplings ??? ..... Martin and I are jealous !!!

Your lady, Jian, sounds like a winner. Best to the both of you two.

Dumbo, when it seems out of balance, that's she's doing too much for you, DONT stop her from doing something for you. That will only frustrate/aggrivate her. Let her do what she feels her duty tells her to. Achieve balance by doing things for her. It takes a couple days to find something she regularly does that you can do for her. That's what I did. It worked out really well since I felt better doing something for her and she was very appreciative for anything I'd do for her. Often times she was pleasently surprised.

Sounds like your going to have a great time!

Dumbo , hope you and Jian can handle four weeks of that ?

You know us western Men are not used to be treated that nice sometimes :icon_cheesygrin:

Enjoy , there is sooo much to see . So happy for both of you .
Scott , wish you the same good time with your Lady . The Brotherhood rush to China has started on the right foot .
