Let’s suppose that you befriended a Chinese girl. Leaving a good first impression is not enough. If you want to build a long-term relationship, you should know what personal characteristics are most important in her eyes.

As a kind of disclaimer I’d like to state that I am talking about common Chinese girls living in mainland China. 

I cannot guarantee for all Chinese girls, but most of us are simple and frank and don’t hide anything behind a smile. As I mentioned in one of previous articles – Don’t make these mistakes with Chinese girls – Chinese girls hate being cheated. Thus a basic merit – is to be honest and sincere.

Be a man of your word. If you made a promise – keep it. No matter how insignificant the promise is in your eyes, don’t break or ignore it. If you constantly break little promises – you will leave an impression of unreliable person. Keep doing so and one day you will find it’s too late to regret.

Be ambitious! Many people note that Chinese girls are very practical. Please – don’t confuse it with greediness. We don’t need you to be rich. But you must have ambitions.

In one forum I read comment of a girl who stated that she likes successful men not because of what they HAVE, but because of their mindset – that same mindset that made them successful.

Caution! Ambitious is not the same as arrogant.

Be filial. Chinese tradition values the filial piety above many other virtues. Thus – pay attention to the way in which you talk about your parents, and respect the girl’s family as well.

Maybe you paid attention that I didn’t advise you to be romantic and sweet. Though the famous saying states that women love with ears – I would urge to let the actions talk about your care and love instead of words.

I hope that you find this reading helpful. Wish you good luck and happiness.

Sincerely yours, Crystal Tao
