Okay, so now you have your list of names from the social. Rank them from top to bottom using a combination of logical and intuitive criteria. Bottom line, rank them by which one appeals to you most based on what you know about her to date, and so on down the line.
Have the tour agency set up dates with the women for you. Book them every conceivable moment you can. If you are going on sight seeing tours, have one date join you for the few hours on the morning tour and another for the afternoon tour.
Have another meet you for lunch and yet another for coffee or tea before dinner. Save your evening plans for the women you like best.
Make The Best Use of Your Time.
By the time you have one day to one and one half days left in a city, you should narrow your list to one or two women that you want to spend the remaining time with. This is crunch time. You will be evaluating whether you want to pursue a long-term relationship with them.
Maybe you want to meet her family. Maybe you want to ask the most pointed of all your questions. How does she feel about you?
If you are typical, you may have found ‘the one.’ Or maybe she’s the one until you get to the next city and meet the next ‘one.’ You are going to feel confused and happy all at the same time. You are going to feel all mixed up. After all, you are in love.
Keep this process up until you have completed your tour. Each city. Each social provides a new opportunity. If you do it right, you will be happy but exhausted by the end of your tour.
You will have met a lot of dynamite women in two weeks – more than you would have ever met in two years at home. One of them may be the right one for you.

Should you date someone at the office? The long and short answer is–no. If you are both unrelentingly drawn to each other however, then you may have to consider another job in order to date because an office romance can have certain consequences for your career that you had not planned on.
We often do not think these things through when we meet someone we are attracted to. But an office romance can be a challenge. If you proceed to mix your love life with your work life, you can put yourself under significant stress.
Here are some choices to consider if you have a relationship so compelling, you cannot stay away from each other:
* Consider all of the consequences of dating this person before you date them.
If this person is so irresistible you cannot stay away from him or her, are you ready to give up your job for them if that is what is required?
If you date and then break up, how comfortable are you going to feel in the same workplace?
Are you or the person you want to date emotionally volatile? What would happen if you had a fight at work?
Is this person discreet and trustworthy? If you tell them your secrets, will they tell other people at work?
What are the policies where you work about dating someone you work with? Read those carefully before you proceed.
* Keep your dating life under the radar.
Before you decide that you want to “go public” with your relationship, keep your dates quiet and to yourselves. You will know within a reasonable amount of time if this romance has a chance of growing into something lasting.
* Consider removing yourself from the same work place as the person you are dating.
Look into getting promoted, transferred, or finding another job, depending on what your company policies are. Get a mentor or a coach to help you strategize what your choices are and to help you implement a plan.
Are you ready for an office romance? It’s complicated, it’s challenging, and it’s risky. If you have your life relatively in order; if you are known to make good decisions; and if you cannot deny that “something” is there between you, proceed with caution. If it’s love, it’s worth it.

This Chinese New Year was an eye-opener even to someone like me who had been celebrating this special occasion for the past twenty over years.
There are many more family practices we have to abide by and for me to learn.
For example, we would need to bring at least 8 Mandarin oranges back to in-law’s place with other gifts like abalone, bird nest and a box of chocolate.
Going back to the in-laws’ place for reunion dinner had to be planned 1 month before so that we could compromise on a date that can fit all. The reunion dinner was to be done on the day before new year’s eve as new year’s eve itself is reserved for the husband’s side.
After the reunion dinner, we have to come back with 8 oranges, 2 fried fishes and 2 big pans of carrot cakes. According to Cantonese custom, the wife has to return with lots of gifts so as to show that the wife’s side has a wealth of food to eat and even bring back.
Now, the next thing is for the in-laws to visit our family. It was really hard to fix a date as both of us have to be back in office to work…in holiday mood of course plus by the time my in-law leaves my house, it will be very late at night and it is only by then my wife can do her work.
Hmmm, I also don’t want her to sleep so late cos it is very unhealthy for her but how to tell her parents?
Hmmm, what to do? And do you know what is one thing that even great man finds difficult to do and that is to talk back to her mother-in-law.

Don’t wait until your relationship is totally dead to try to reawaken the passion. It takes a sincere effort to be aware of the passion starting to fade and being willing to do something about it. Depending on how cold you have allowed yours to get it may take only small things to get the passion back or it may take real effort and even counseling.
One easy way to help bring the fire back into a dying relationship is to plan a weekend for two at a romantic hideaway where you can just focus on each other with no work, no computers, and no cell phones! If you can plan these kinds of trips every few months it can go a long way to keeping the passion alive.
Many times the cause of the lack of passion goes hand in hand with the person feeling a lack of respect from their partner. For women, it may be that they feel that their mate isn’t as attracted to them anymore or they feel unwanted. For men, it is usually more of an issue with their job or income. They may feel that their partner doesn’t respect them because they don’t earn enough money or they may feel taken advantage of. All of these things should be discussed, if you are feeling any of this talk it out with your partner. Put your partner first and these problems will go away.
Another cool way to get that spark back is to try something together that neither of you have done before, something bold and exciting like going diving or even snorkeling in some place with clear pretty water like the Bahamas or Hawaii, or even where I live in Florida. Try kayaking on weekends, it is lots of fun and great exercise and you get to be alone for hours!
Sometimes just the simple act of holding hands can help to bring back the passion. For most women it is a big deal and it makes them feel wanted. Men, don’t just grab your woman’s hand when you see other guys gawking at her. This simple little act can go a long way to keeping the love alive.
Plan nights for dates to keep your relationship fresh and feeling like it did in the beginning. My wife and I go to the movies and dinner every Friday night, it isn’t that expensive and the rewards are priceless. Planning a date night like this lets your partner know that you care about them and that you want to spend time with them.
