I'm up to something similar and it seems though that we share a similar mentality. However, I've got a questions and which I'm hesitating to ask: how did you support yourself (financially) during that long period? I'm sorry if that is too personal, but I'm wondering about how you stayed in another country.

I hope you are having fun over there though still. I find it kind of intriguing though that the club that bans a certain type of people would become so popular. But obviously the owners knew it would work... but still. I hope you can get some pictures soon-ish. Yikes dude. I hope you are having fun over there though still.

How do I use this theory in "the game of love"? I'm dating a man who lives in another country (not that far though). He's very stressed right now because of a "job hunt", wich is not going too well for him. Therefor he doesn't pay me too much attention. We've been dating on to occations (to weekends) during the past three weeks, but we've known eachother for half a year. Like most girls I want confirmation that he wants me just as much as I want him. It's hard to play hard to get, but I'm trying. :roll: In what way can I use this theory? I understand the theory, but I need more specifics in how to use it. Thanks Sofie How to get the man I want?

Better to invest in doing something for the world rather than handing money to strangers, if one thinks that is even worth it. Sadly this is the world we live in.

I agree completely that the best thing the Chinese government can do is allow open and free access to all media. By shutting it down it just makes them look like they've something to hide. All mainstream media has an agenda (Chinese/Western, there's no difference) and I think it's a tragedy that we live in an age where we can't trust our reporters for an unbiased story. @TheAnand: The Dalai Lama is no longer supported by the CIA. He was in the 60s and early 70s when anti-communism was at its hight in the US. The US was looking for a way they could drive a wedge into communist China. As the "red threat" has since died, so has any support he may at one time have received. Regardless, he shouldn't be judged to harshly, as they would technically have been taken by his 'government in exile' and distributed to train insurgency forces - it was, after all, the position of the Tibetan leadership (then, as now) that they were invaded by the PLA and that they needed to fight back. @Carl: Good post.
