Q: Any foreign ladies dating or had dated a local guy?

This question even applies to you ABC's, BBC's, etc. Seems like most of my foreign guy friends have a local gf and all my foreign female friends is single or has a foreign bf.

I tried dating a local guy once.  But since neither of us were gay, it didn't work out.  All of our dates were just prolonged awkward silences.  He did offer to buy me an iPad though.  That was nice of him.

So John, you were... hhhmm.... 'foreign lady'surprise

without iPad?

Since I am chinese guy, I guess my perspective can be different from those come from other countries.

frist, the language and cultural gaps block lot of chinese guys from communicate with foreign girls, it is easy to make friends with local guys, but when it comes to a relationship or marriage, it takes great efford.

second, the tradtional chinese society poses great pressure to a serious relationship. It's hard to believe marrying a foreign girl to the chinese.

third, I guess the paradigms that have been mentioned above is a adverse choice. to those who stay together, either the foreign girl is interested in chinese culture and people, or the local guy received good education and understands the language and culture where the girl comes from well. 

to the average people, it's very hard to believe a relationship between a local guy and a foreign girl, which is so different when it comes to a local girl & a foreign guy.

sorrel:

As a foreign girl who has dated a Chinese guy, being interested in Chinese culture an language, I have made a big effort to change my thinking and knowledge, but was met with rigid thinking. it is disappointing as there are many foreign women I have met who find overcoming this 'fire-wall' a barrier to many potential relationships

The only combination I've seen is tall, good-looking local guys with insane/fat/ugly (sometimes all three) expat women.

I know one quite hot NZ chick who had yellow fever. And I know a few other cute girls who are also taken by Asian looks, the same way that guys often are towards the girls here.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
