badatpool Posted March 3, 2004 at 03:34 PM Report Share Posted March 3, 2004 at 03:34 PM Now in China,if you want to turn down someone who is chasing you,then you can say---"What on earth do you like me?!I would rather change that,ok?" Can you get it?Maybe it's funnier in Chinese:你到底喜欢我什么,我改还不行吗? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very hard to turn down a girl if she is nice and pleasant even though you don't like her that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
