After reading through this section it struck me that most of the threads are about bad experiences.
I wonder: is it that most of the relationships here are disfunctional, or are those of us in good ones just less likely to talk about it?
So my question is this for the most part have your dating experiences in Taiwan been positive or negative?
Let’s hear your horror stories and your success stories.
I will start the ball rolling with this little diddy:
The first girl I dated here was introduced to me my a mutual friend. On first meeting she seemed nice enough but I quickly realized her entire life revolved around drinking and hangovers.
Her idea of foreplay was saying “stick it in”.
I soon realized that if I did not want to drink with her I would not be seeing her.
Her solution was to go out get hammered, show up at my place at 4 am demand I shove it in, pass out and then lie in my bed all day crying about her head ache.
When I told her I was more interested in going places and doing things together. She flipped out and tried to seduce my roomate.
There is an odd girl in Chung-Li who likes to sleep with foreigners. Almost everyone I know of has been with her. But she’s very attractive. Funny thing is she gets bored of men really fast. She’ll date guys for about a week…then never speak to them again. I lasted two weeks and was proud of it at the time.
Other than that…worst experiences are getting girls home to find out they have 4 inch hairs hanging down from their nipples.
I am no longer in Taiwan, but I had some crazy experiences dating the girls ! Here was 1 of the funniest!
Once I was in SOGO in Taipei when it was pretty slow.
A girl selling men’s products tried to get me to buy some lotion. We talked blah blah. I bought the lotion in the end for fun. When I opened the box there was a folded paper inside. Her number and a few words!!! I called her 2 days later and we went out on Friday night. Well… she brought a friend.
No problem. Taiwanese style eh. When she went to the bathroom during dinner, her sexy little friend straight up said!" I know you have a big ----!" Black guys are big right! I was like… what the ----! She said if I was too big for her friend to call her because she had a LOT of experience with foreign SIZE!
When her friend came back they discussed this situation in Chinese. Well they ended up having a loud, heated debated right there in the restaurant as to who was more qualified to …you know!!! Some people could hear what they were talking about I’m sure, and caught even more than I did as to what was being said!
I ended up leaving as the staff and a lot of other people continued staring at our table. They were both pissed over me splitin’, I was like let me out of here. Needless to say I left them to their own devices. :loco:
Positive note: One of the last local girls I dated ended up being a really good friend after we broke up. She was unique. Well spoken, well traveled and still keeps in touch with me. She was interested in a multitude of things. I was lucky to have met someone like this near the end of my time in Taiwan!
I used to date a Chinese girl about two years ago who, on an all-expenses-paid-by-me weekend trip to Hong Kong decided to wake me up at 2am the day we were coming back to Taiwan to break up with me because I didn’t play the guitar…seriously. This is the same girl who broke up with me about two weeks earlier because I was getting my hair cut when she called me and couldn’t talk to her…then she called me back 5 minutes later in tears begging me to take her back…which for some reason I did…anyway, the same day she breaks up with me in Hong Kong, on the flight back to Taiwan, she decides she wants to spend the night at my apartment and sleep in the same bed with me…I had a spare bed in another room…
Anyway, best experience was the first time my wife and I kissed…we were just hanging out at my place, listening to some music and talking when it just kind of happened…like most first kisses do…after that I was hooked!!

at least it has happy ending
So, shifty, that dating experience in your first post: was that your worst or best?
I don’t know about worst or best, but one of my funniest experiences was the time I was in college and met a girl in the bars where the students hang out on Friday and Saturday nights. She asked me if I wanted to go get stoned at her place. I did, so I went with her. We smoked a joint and before you know it she takes off her clothes and we’re in bed. We have sex but then I start to get disgusted. Disgusted because she’s really not all that attractive, she’s kindof out of shape, her legs are hairy, and after sex she lit up a cigarrette, which I definitely don’t care for. So then she gets up to go to the toilet and I’m lying there feeling really disgusted with her and with myself and I just don’t want to deal with the situation any longer, so I’m looking around and I notice we’re on the first floor and her window is open. So I quickly pull on my clothes, climb out the window and jog home in the darkness, chuckling about what she will think when she walks back in the room and I’m gone. Maybe it was cruel, maybe not, maybe she liked the ending too, but it’s certainly the only time I’ve done that.
Well J when I liked the girl(s) I got plenty like a lot of foreign guys, and thats what I mean. A lot of girls (NOT ALL) in Taiwan are flakes.
Look at rob_the_canucks post! Now thats a flake!!! :loco:
I figure with so many available girls in Taiwan, and I don’t mean that in a negative way. I’m not bringing home a potential nutcase, and I’m telling you both of these girls were pretty hot! Especially the size queen!
Just did not need the headache! Probably could have positioned myself to have both!
MT, that sounds like a classic example of the Law of Repulsion After Orgasm:
[quote]When I’m drunk I can’t remember that I’m drinking to forget,
And back comes that vision, you know it haunts me yet -
I’m as guilty as Macbeth, she’s my Banquo -
You shoulda guessed by now that I’m suffering R.A.O.
My dick’s had its say, now I’m left with my head
Asking what I’m doing here in this girl’s bed.
Immediately after the sticky white emulsion
Comes the ol’ familiar sensation of repulsion.
Repulsion after orgasm - you can’t escape the law:
I’m really just a middle class boy who wants to find the door,
And the answer to the question: what was I doing matin’
With this ugly fucking weirdo who calls her dildo Satan?
Repulsion after orgasm - it’ll get you in the end,
When you’re lying there disgusted, but having to pretend -
Just after I come, all I want to do is go:
That’s not a double entendre, that’s R.A.O.[/quote]
The worst date I’ve ever had in Taiwan? It’s hard to narrow it down to on single bad experience that tops the rest. Maybe having my hair compared to Einstein’s on a first date or being told by an SABC that he found it strange to hear non-Asians speaking Chinese and then later bitched at me for not being able to speak Chinese very well or the undies incident.
As for the best date I’ve ever had in Taiwan…the best romantic (as opposed to platonic) date has yet to come. But I’ve already thrown my towel in so no breath holding here.

He was a rich Ben Affleck look-alike whose family owned some winery land. Six years younger. At the restaurant he took my hand and asked me what was my dream. I said it was to become a millionaire. He said, “Don’t worry, 914. You marry me and we’ll wait for my parents to die.” Awww…all my life I’ve waited for someone to whisper those sweet words in my ear. It could have been a best date story.
Then…
It was going real well, up till the point we had to say good night and I saw he didn’t have a ride. He bussed it. :s I drove him home, shook his hand and left.
You blew it 914. If the two of you had sat down and worked out a plan, I’m sure you could have found a way for him to come into his inheritance early. Do the names Lyle and Erik Menendez ring a bell?
They were both pissed over me splitin’, I was like let me out of here. Needless to say I left them to their own devices. :loco:
