Christ, dude, it's a bit of an extended topic. Basically - proceed as you would if she was western.

However - understand that most Chinese women take relationships pretty seriously. I don't the history of how you met or where she's from but chances are that she'll get very serious very quickly and you'll have a hard time pulling out of it if you're not upfront with her about your intentions.

About your intentions...it sounds like you're kind of new here and that this thing with this girl is pretty new and that you may not fully understand what it is you're after yourself. If that's the case that proceed with caution.

How old is this girl? The older she gets the more inclined to marriage she will be. It's a bit of an adventure but it's fun.

There'll be more replies to follow - I expect a decent discussion about this topic so stay tuned. I'll add more as I see fit.

Girls are girls. Culture changes their outward behavior, but not how they feel deep down inside at the end of the day.

The biggest thing I could advise you to be aware of is that chinese girls like to say that they are "nice traditional girls" and therefore don't do things like drink alcohol, smoke, or kiss/sleep with boys they aren't married to.
This is usually a lie. They just don't want to FEEL like bad girls, so you have to take charge, be the instigator, push a little bit (not TOO much, we're not going for date rape here, but still just a tiny bit past their comfort level), all the while reassuring them that they are still nice and traditional.

Aside from that, I don't think you need to worry so much about accidentally offending her culture. Living in Australia, she should be aware that there are differences you just don't know about, and if you accidentally do something that would be a faux-pas in china, just talk about it and ask her to explain it because you didn't know before.

Oh and pay for the first date. (After that it's your call.)

Nah...too easy to be nasty... .

-Try not to speak too fast if her english is a bit clumsy
-Try not to force her eating western food (this will come with time, trust me)
-Try not to comment on her armpits and mustache
-Try not to talk politics (at least the first couple dates)
-Try not to go faster than her with your electric scooter
-Try not to argue when she wants to pay the restaurant's bill (it's a good thing anyways, ain't it?)
-Try to believe her if she says she's still virgin (even if she's 28, it might be true)
-Try to smother your laugh when she comes around with a T-shirt "I love Australia" or "Hello Kitty"
-Try to understand when she pulls out her umbrella under a bright sky.
-Try to not get angry when she'll be telling you "zhong guo you yi ju hua" (you might hear that one ten thousand times, get use to it)
-Try to pay attention, if she says "hummmm I love the color of your passport" or "hummmm your bank notes are so fancy, I love it", it might be a sign... .
-Try to run as far as possible if she goes like "You know, I have a 23 members family living in the outskirts of Beijing"

That's all I can think of right now. I'll get stonned for that but trust me some of these points are not to be taken lightly.

My girl gave me a clock as a present. There's the real world and then there's the Lonely Planet world.

Do the romantic sh*t first up, walk around hou hai, restaraunts, get to first base on a park bench.

Use language practice as the guise for getting her in your place. Play some hot lez porn they love that.

we r not her .the best answer is from her.so ask her .that is a way to show ur heart too.

Thats pure genius. I wish you knew this much about English Teaching

They don't.

Think that is.

yeah uh ,like standing in a park throwing out a stone cold statue pose, waiting for this pretty girl to walk by as she is shopping and she never shows.. whats up, YYZ ?

hell yea, im no fool.
a good thing is worth waiting on. right.

Hey YYZ I'll meet you at that same park in twenty minutes OK?

You want to meet the famous, handsome and talented Robert Black don't you?

Better wear someting sexy.

Well maybe but I don't get that feeling when she says something like that. I would on the other hand rather buy a nice gift from time to time so that she appreciates it more than if it is expected of me and I have to do it several times a month. We are basically like children that way. If you give a child everything he wants all the time he won't appreciate anything and he will be spoiled and out of touch with how real life works. I guess its similar to those princess girl types. If a girl gets angry with me and wants to break up just because I am not showering her with gifts all the time (some weird idea of proof of love?) then she probably isn't worth spending time on anyway.

fact is fact that is not hard to face, what is hard to face is how people jutify the truth by their own standard.

i thought it was a good advice because it perhaps could really save OP from awkard situation in case he confronts the issue to his girl, i mean if she was a tough chinese lady, she might tell him to shave his armpits and be her bitch. i bet she wouldnt mind his mustache though.

ＹＹＺ can you stop PM'ing me please. It's getting on my nerves.

Xelium23 i was just about to set you free but you seem to enjoy staying in jail too much, ok then, as you wish, i'll let you get back there.
