“You’re so handsome” can get a bit too much after hearing it for like the 100th time. However that’s probably the usual line that you’ll hear once some of the Vietnamese lady locals find out you’re a possible single male looking for a bit of fun. However I was advised to stay away from these women since they’re nothing but a waste of time, unless you’re looking for some midnight romance then it’s a different story. I only thought of writing this since a girl that I still keep in touch with, tells me that she misses me very much. But the thing is I only met her in a bar and just chatted for fifteen minutes or so. After that it’s been occasional emails with my Vietglish to her and her replying. Add in some yahoo chat for some webcam hilarities and it adds more spice then the regular emails. Still not enough to warrant a “I miss you” response, but when you’re stuck in a country like Vietnam, then you gotta do what you can just to get out and live a better life. Even if it means giving up your body and going through crap treatment by your average chauvinistic males. Males who possibly are still married, have kids back in their respective homeland and say that they love their wives. These males though, are possibly looking for their own happiness and wanna break free of their regular routine. Oh how it’s a vicious circle for both genders…..
