Man Vince , does anything come easy for you ? I guess your wonderful Daughters keep you from going Crazy and loosing it with this Ex of yours . Can't tell you to Hang in there , when that is all you do already . I know you do your best and I really hope you find that wonderful Chinese Woman that will make you forget all that is in the Past .

Hey I got an idea for a reality show - Lets call it "The Ex Factor". Every week we can explore how an Ex factors into messing up our life. Then we can give a big sigh man  when frustration sets in. :o

Rhonald great idea but I don't think this site is big enough for that.   ::)

I think one of the bigger problems here, is the lack of new members.  This is most likely because many of us don't go to the official much anymore.  I don't know if anyone is "plugging" this site over there.  I certainly don't go over there, with all the bad blood between myself and some of the regulars over there.  And since I just found out I have a very tall norwegian woman...hahaha...forget it...too funny.  We need more new members, and somehow, motivate them to be active, and actually make their presence known.

what is the "other" one? I'm kinda clueless on that aspect being that I did find this site in a very roundabout way starting with google....

Better to plunge in and drowned, than sit on the pier wondering.

The other one is the Chnlove forum (aka the official).

The other site, as Vince said, is the official as we call it here.  Most members started out using the chnlove.com web site to meet a lady.  Their forum is heavily moderated.  Each post by members needs to be read by a moderator before it is posted.  You can ask a question there, and might be days before your question is ever posted for the world to see.  Since most members find this forum through that forum, that is where we dropped our name from time to time.  But since most of us have moved past that site, we aren't plugging this site anymore.

Sadly, I must admit, I've never liked the official site, as far as the forum anyway. Totally sucked, hated waiting for answers and like everyone else here, kind of past using them. Being the current situation.

But we have so many informative post in numerous threads that newcomers can find the answers without having to ask the questions. 

Maybe it has run its course.  I don't know. 

I have noted of late that the banter has started to return in small quantities.   That was a quality this forum had over others. But then we all got warned off for too much and just after that the interest seemed to wane.

Also, like radio, you need a few shock jockeys to keep it active.  But they have gone by the wayside - ever voluntary of not. 

Maybe we should open it up to going further than just China - Phillipines, Thailand, Vietnam - in fact any country outside the western world.  The same principles will apply for getting your wives back to your own countries just the proceedure in each will be different.

Make need a different name as well.

I think you are probably right when you note that there is now so much info. here that people who visit the site can find most of what they are looking for ??

I see every time I log on that there are many "guests" viewing, but only few posts/intros for newbies.
I am not sure I agree that the site may have run its race.

But for the "old timers" and now married Men, it is not easy to know what others want from the site. I am sure that nobody wants a day by day, account of my life with Ming in Perth...most of it is just the usual living together stuff...and the other bits are private  ;D ;D ;D

I know that we all are ready and willing to help anybody who needs it...they just gotta ask !!!

ps....Robbie....you asked what happened to my hand......a picture says a thousand words....here it is !!!...hope it does not upset your breafast !!!!

Boy the last time I saw those kind of Stitches , was on a Stuffed Pork Roast . I sure hope this will heal well for you , but also imagine at our Age .. it will slow the healing part down somewhat . Anyway , I know for sure this freaked out your Ming to say the least . Take care of it David , you do write with your Right I hope ?
