Baby steps/getting started.

[trwme]

I might have to try that agency, I am drawn once again to Wuhan. When are you going Roy? I might go in late April if I find someone worth visiting.

Have you seen her on webcam?

Well, it's going to be the fall at least before I can go. I have two issues to clear up, one of them being a custody fight over my daughter which will impact when I can go. That will be over the first part of next month, at which point I will be able to plan. This is also the beginning of the busiest time at the place where I work, and since I've burned up my vacation time going to court already I'll have to work that out, which pretty much means it will be sometime in the fall when things slow down at work before I'll be able to take the at least two weeks off I want to take.

I haven't see her on webcam, no, but she's sent me plenty of normal pics taken at her home. Of course they aren't as slick and flattering as the professional photos, but she is the same woman and still attractive-to me at least! But it's her laughing, playful personalty that's drawn me in.

trwme,

good to hear that all is good. my wife did the same thing to me when we chatted
on web cam and still does. she has that playful personality along with these goofy
faces she makes when we are talking and haveing fun that i found very attractive
along with her laugh. and sometimes she makes these really cute remarks that make
no sense but with the funny face and laughing i find them really cute. i am sure as you
continue with her all things will be well.

Well, right now I'm awaiting her response to the emf I sent her after our phone chat this morning. I basically asked for us to be exclusive. I think I know what her answer will be, but I'm not going to assume too much before the fact-although I've already hidden my profile, and put the other ladies I'd written in the past on my blocked list. I have 35 credits left and I intend to use them with Xin, depending on how she feels about things.

The word that keeps going through my head is 'enchanting', lol.

Grats, Roy!

No wonder I never hear from you anymore ! lolz :icon_cheesygrin:
I am also now talking to more ladies than I can easily handle (over the phone) and my phone bills will be titanic this month. But things are looking much better than when I started.

Keep us posted k?

Peking duck. :icon_cheesygrin:

Ah yes, I have tried it in many places, Beijing & elsewhere.... but the best in terms of price I ever had was in.... of all places, Kunming !!!

In Beijing it is usually Y30-50/duck, so far as I knew, but only Y10 in Kunming, where in addition they roasted it in pine cones to give that heavenly aroma. You guys should try it if you happen to go there.

Well, I DID ask ya to tie me to the freakin' mast...see what happens? Dived right in....

Sitting on pins and needles right now awaiting her reply to my last emf, lol, hope I didn't speak too soon! As soon as I hear from her, I'll give the official word on the status....

[trwme]

Ok, it's official now, she told me tonight she is mine. I got the easy part out of the way, now on to developing the relationship, learning the language, and getting the heck over there to meet in person. Since it seems customary here to post a pic of your lady, I'll go ahead and post a couple-one is an agency photo not on her profile, and the other is one of the 'regular' home photos she's sent me. Hopefully the photos are sized properly, and if there is somewhere else here these are to be posted, let me know.

[Bee964]

Congratulations Roy. Nice looking lady. Hope that all works out for you.

[trwme]

Thanks Bee. I feel very lucky and blessed at this so far. There's a long way to go and I have a ton of work to do, but I am getting after it.

[mustfocus]

Yeah, congrats Roy!  Hope this relationship will cement really quickly.

[trwme]

Roy, calm down and take your time.

Ok, will do.

[Bee964]

Roy,

I am going to meet my lady the end of march. I am having trouble staying calm too. Just relax and continue on with getting everything else in your life settled. Then when you're ready go meet her. You will find that you will be meeting her before you know it.

Dave C

[trwme]

Well, it'll be late fall/winter before I can go to meet her more than likely, at the earliest. Not because of money, but because of work issues. I've let her know this, and she says she'll wait. But she's also let me know that she was involved with another man in the past who promised to come, and never did. So I'm trying to show her that I am serious about it, and the main way I can do that right now is to work hard at learning the language. That's my main focus, and what I was refering to when I said I was 'getting after it'.

Good luck with your lady Dave, I'll look forward to your reports when the time comes!

She's a lovely lady.

You need to work on getting out to China as soon as you can - these ladies have heard it all before.

Don't worry about the language. I got all the way to my Wuhan hotel on "ni hao" and "xie xie". I knew even less Japanese in Tokyo, but it didn't seem to matter :icon_cheesygrin:.

[odysseus007]

My my, no wonder Roy is putty in her hands :icon_cheesygrin:
Good job, now you gotta maintain the freshness til fall, there ain't no mast on the steamboat, it's a very long time til Sep/Oct.

Thanks Brett. I want to get there as soon as it is realistic to do so, and I broached the subject of a couple of weeks off later on this year with my boss today. At least he didn't say no way, lol.

I'm mainly trying to learn the language for a couple of reasons, one to show her I'n serious and working at this too, and for another to help us build up our direct personal communication. Plus, once I get to Wuhan I'd like to not have to drag a translator around with us everywhere we go, lol....might want a little time alone?

lol...uh huh, I'm her little puppy dog right now. And you more than anyone else know a bit more about the inside skinny here, lol. She had me from Ni Hao. Fortunately for me I'm a romantic at heart, and I have a good imagination to go with my writing skills, so hopefully I can maintain her interest long enough to meet in person...........don't need a mast to be tied to anymore, lol, just going to enjoy the ride and see where I'm being taken to.
