I am happier abroad :)
Thu Jun 20, 2013 1:26 am
Hi,
My name is xhatox and I am a 23 year old American woman. I've been browsing the Happier Abroad forums for a few years now, but never felt comfortable posting much due to the large number of members who disliked American women.
I am really happy to find a Ladies forum, however!
I have lived in 4 countries, and am currently back in America. I plan on moving back to Asia next year.
I am currently trying to start my own ways of making money. It's pretty stressful right now.
As far as dating, I don't dislike American men, but dating-wise I prefer Asian men, namely Chinese.
Anyway, nice to meet everyone! Yay Ladies Forum!

Welcome xhatox!
I'm glad to see your intro. You're the kind of lurker that I was hoping to get to post when I created this board.
Wow you are only 23 and you've lived in 4 countries? That's impressive. Were they all in Asia? What were you doing there?
So what are you doing back in the states? Are you in reverse culture shock? I still am. I was in Asia for a long time too. There is a modesty and humbleness there that you miss.
What do you like about Asian/Chinese men?
If you like Chinese men, you will like this movie I just saw called "Mao's Last Dancer" about a Chinese male ballet dancer who came to America in 1981, based on a true story. It was very touching. Here is the film's IMDB page:

Hi xhatox!
Do you agree with what is said on Happier Abroad about American women?

Hi Xhatox,
Welcome!
Nice username, is it a Chinese word? What does it mean? I've very fascinated about Asian culture and I'm always dabling in their business and customs, but I've never been over there yet. It would be great to see some of your pics & Trip reports about the continent.
Do share. .. & Nice to meet you!
