For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

I bet you cannot solve this puzzle!

Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors: Behind one door is a car; behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a goat. He then says to you, "Do you want to pick door No. 2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice?

Wim - you are not allowed to enter!

I have read the answer and I still don't get it!

Relationships Blog

After age 11 I grew up without a Dad which means my Dad didn't teach me the social strategies about meeting girls. I was a very awkward teenager and I had to learn all this stuff about girls in my 20s.



Many people have asked me about my experience and what they can learn from them but the truth is I'm still single and still learning but I have been through a lot of girls and gained a lot of experience. After reading many books, talked to a lot of friends, and having many personal…
