Tieng Viet lovers club

[Darkstorm]

Besides Casanova07, anyone else here married a Viet girl he knew from the Viet pubs here?

Viet girls are a problematic bunch.

If they pretend to like you (in fact they like you for your money), you are in shit.

If they really like you, you are in bigger shit.

The Adguy believes that a good drink, a good game of pool, and a good PCC at home is the best night out.

Hi Darkstorm,

I agree with Reaper. You have to take it slowly, step-by-steps. Dun over commit and later on get "hurt"... Just treat her as a normal friend first, just like you with the people here in SBF... If the relationship flourish, then its good for you.

That is not to say she is ill intentions towards you. It is just a precaution that you must take to protect yourself. In no way am I saying she is a bad person.

I am sure she is a lovely sweet lady as you are the consumate gentleman but then dont forget under what circumstances you met.

Hi, I have a idea to learn some simple vietnamese from vietnamese students that study in NTU, NUS, SMU, etc. I felt their english must be good enough for them to understand university level of teaching. As such they will be qualified enough to be our teacher. I have got in touch with 1 student I met in NUS and she had agreed to help me to ask her friends anyone interested to give vietnamese language tuition..... The price is negotiable

Interested parties, please let me know their names.

I found this in the website:

Singapore
Phone: (65) 6389 1677 or (65) 9062 5169
Fax: (65) 6474 1766

Each course consists of 10 sessions. Each session spans on a two-and-a-half-hour lesson. The fee is $495 (nett) per course.

Why? Please elaborate.

I'm not married and I have no girlfriend now.

Thanks man. Appreciated.

But I think it is really going to be hard for any postive outcome since I'm in Singapore and she is in Vietnam.

Plus a major obstacle now is that I can't speak Viet. Most people will probably just tell me to give up and move on.

I wonder how successful guys like Casanova07 overcame their obstacles (eg: language obstacles)

if u really love her, with sheer determination u'll learn n master d language altho it may take time. some of d bros in SB r good examples.

likewise, if she likes u she shd oso make efforts to learn our chinese lang. if u walk along 51, thr r so many Viets who can speak chinese. so it depends whthr if d indiv wants to make an effort.

g'luck bro.

Very pricey ley anh Jackbl...Got discount? BTW, they don't issue certificates like Language schools...Which is a minus point for me already. This being just my own personal opinion.

Cheers,

bro its a concerted effort on both parties...the more you try to learn viet and the more she tries to learn either english or chinese, the more the both of you know and can exchange meanings...you will get stronger by the day....

my wife view is that chinese is easier to learn than english....

That day after enquiry with bro Thom07, i went down to GL to spot for some ICC. I found one, Yellow in color, called "Talk-a-thon". Direct icc call is 130min, while call-back is 100min. The cost is $8-$8.50.

Note that it has connection charge, meaning, I called 15min, but it charge me 17min. Therefore i advised that it is more economical to talk a 1 hour block rather than calling 4 times of 15min....

To call straight will be around 88 mins.
Call back gets around 80 mins.
