And if i were in your shoes, i would have the same feeling as you have. I would feel bored cause the question is always the same kind of. Any one can be bored with that, I think. But i really dont know at times how to start a conservaction, I had an awful experience i want to share with you. A couple of weeks ago, I met two canaidan guy at a big mall here in my city, at first i didnt know they were from Canada, i just heard them speaking english with each other, so i asked "hi, sir, you from America?" (i must say i was a little nervous at that time, even though i have american colleague with me all the time, but he- my american colleague speaks perfect chinese, so most of the time, we speak chinese with each other), then one of a guy answered, "no, canada, ameria is ...." he made a sign of "thump down" and showed me the america is no good. i was very embarrassed at the moment. so i slipt away as soon as i can. This is the most awful experience i had i can say, i always dreaming of speak english well. But i always hate myself the progress i made is far too slow...

Yes, I suppose that most of us have the same problem that we prefer to begin the conversion by asking those similar and boring topics... Maybe that is owing to the different cultures betwen east and west. As we know Chinese people and Westerners have the absolute different thinking methods based on the different background. I should say I have learn a lot from your blog that what is real feeling of a westerner. It is really helpful. Thanks.:) Ya, Andrew, you have pointed out main problem for most of Chinsese people who wanna make friend with westerners.

I have to say that kind of date was so boring... Only 3 minute for the conversion then moving. What else can talk? only where are you from, why are you in shanghai, what do you do? blah, blah, they asked me and I aske them. That made all of us cannot remember each other after date due to those same questions.haha...So so so boring...

You're totally right! Most people consider making friends with foreigners is an easy thing to do.Making a friend with someone needs a lot of time as well as a lot of understanding.You need to know what the other person is really interested in, and whether if you have things in common or not.For example , a person who spends the whole day reading , writing or playing chess , would never get along with a person who spends most of his time hanging out , watching TV and having fun. I hope I succeeded at getting my point of view across.Thanks Andrew for your honesty! Anas Hi andrew!
