I was alone for a while. I had a lot of girlfriends hanging around. Every weekend, I always arrange someting, clubbing, concerts, eating out, musumes, poetry reading. When I have no company, I watch films by myself. I had a good time. In the meanwhile, I read a lot of books about guys. I came from a broken marriage home. I did not know a lot about the male. I had some relationships which did not work out, we were always in different pace. So I read a lot. I realized you have to be your own woman. American guys really respect you for that. In the meanwhile, keep your good tradition of being easy going and considerate. My bf thinks that Asian girls are very easy going and feminate. He discussed that with his coworkers. They agreed that Asian girls are the best. He told me, I just laughed saying that American women are too independent and liberated for their tastes. So we can learn from the best of two worlds, being independent and yet still feminate. Also, something I learned is that American guys need space. You need space too. Anyway, you can learn how they think, feel, and express. Then you will be more in harmony with them. When you just enjoy your relationship without worrying about what is happening, it is more likely that you have it. It is a combination of finding the one and working it out. Good luck.
