Q: How do you deal with the whole breaking up with the GF and wanting to go back to your home country?

-I think it says it all. It lasted a year, and I made major changes in my life because of her. Now, I'm stuck in a job I don't really like for the next 5 months, in a city that isn't so good. I feel like quitting and going back to the states to make burgers or pump gas (I worked since I was 14 illegally, so I actually don't care what I do).

Try to do it with as much respect as possible, say that you don't feel you can genuinely commit to a life in China, or a life with her and that you want to let her find somebody who can, so she can be happy. It'll be a comforting lie, but there are rare occasions where a comforting lie is best. 

 

I should point out, this is not the first "how do I dump my GF" question here, and based on previous responses to those questions, check she's not holding anything flammable, or sharp and pointy, at the crucial moment when you tell her it's over.

 

Good luck.

danielmarino:

Yes, don't break up in the kitchen or a restaurant, too many sharp things there.

if she's from hunan , my advice is to break up with her when you are safely in your home country.

This is sound advice for breaking up with any Chinese girl...

It was easy to break up with her, cause she threw me out of my house...the next day my boss and a mutual friend of the ex-girlfriend, moved out her stuff. She's back in her dorm.

-My boss actually said "You want me to change locks" and "you get younger better girlfriend now!"

How the F does someone throw you out of your F*ing own house, did you leave your balls in her purse while carrying it around for her?

i actually feel for him, remember he is a foreigner in china. and if he put up any resistance at the time she could easily lie on him and have him arrested. he handled it the right way, go back with mutual friends.

I'm packing my bags now getting ready to go home, I'll put my computer away last, but before I walk out the door I'll send her an email. I've got the goodbye in my drafts and there are always taxis at my driveway.

Go into the bathroom, look at yourself in the mirror, slap yourself for not being a man, gain your composure and make the best out of the situation.

Just remember your a foreigner...its already expected that you will leave her...

 

Problem is if you decide to go back to the US and flip burgers you wont be slamming any hot girls with that kind of job..

get used to having a MCbutterass girlfriend.

 

stop reading this fukin site and all the negatives people post about china.

think of the good things...slamming high school girls..girls dont know how much of a loser you were before... since you dont have a car it doesnt matter.. 

rasklnik:

Wow, I knew some people love to insult strangers on the net, but this is just...well it is just what it is.

Rask, if you have been working illegally for so many years, this probably means you're not a College Grad. This leaves you in a pickle of a situation. 

 

EYON5: do you really have to be that racist? Look, I know really s**t white people too, you seem to be leaning on that side. Do any other colors other than white not offend you some how?

-I regret posting my questions in a drunk break up haze, but since it lets us all see an obvious racist troll, maybe it was worth it.

"Suck it up noone wants to flip burgers in the US with all those niggers n mexicans.." -EYN05

 

@EYN05: ​My god man! I laughed my butt off and at the same time felt utterly disgusted by your comment. Bloody marvelous, and racist.. shame on you.

 

Ahem... My advice to the original poster would be to find a place for yourself somewhere in China so when you do leave you don't leave for some woman.

 

Speaking in all honesty, my initial reason for coming here was to marry my fiance, a Chinese classmate from the USA. We were together for 4 years, when I came here, I lived in south China, worked, even bought a small apartment. On the eve of my marriage she walked out because her family hated me for being a foreigner.. and I had to learn she instead accepted a man from her hometown that her mom and dad introduced to her.. whom she had cheated on me with even before I asked her to marry me.  That was a brutal mess.

 

I also considering going back home, but instead I decided to stay here and find some place that I could call home. Some place suited for me where I could be happy. I have found that in Shanghai.

 

You should look for some place, otherwise your suffering is all for someone who is now gone. Best of luck!

A:Good question!  I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
