Wow.., some interesting replies!
Hmmm, some insightful stuff from the Brotherhood.
First, the Freudian comment may be more accurate than I would like to admit. As I mentioned before, I am moving away from HK in the not too distant future. Maybe I did subconciously sabbatauge things. (but actually... the fact I am moving, and the way it is happening, gives me the motivation and opportunity to play in Wanchai a bit more excessively. So I think I just got careless...)
The Chinese-girl rivalry with those from SEAsia? Easy one. Status. Gals from SEAsia are KEENLY aware of their low status in HK. It is thrown in their faces daily. So if we date a much-higher-status Chinese gal they see it as almost an unsurmountable defeat. Like if your girlfriend suddenly started having lunch dates with Prince Harry on his private yacht or something -- "Holy Crap! How do I compete with that!!"
And no, these gals dont know about each other. I got caught with other gals. The WG-grapevine is sharp, and I am too recognizable in WanChai. It was bound to happen (again.., I am surprised it didnt hit a head until now... and then all three at once!!!). Shit!.
Would I want any of the three back? Ummmm, all of them! Just re-set things to 1.5 years ago where we politely avoided this topic. Dont ask, Dont tell was the unwritten rule. Funny how these relationships evolve. It starts with us talking about everything - my exploits, her life in the bars, sometimes laughing at very specific anecdotes, sometimes at specific punters or gals ("That guy took me out once but was so drunk he couldnt get it up! Paid me anyway. haha"). That sort of detailed stuff where we simply know everything about each other's Wanchai ways. Then, over time, as you get close, learn about each other's "real" life, family, kids, etc. this topic quickly evaporates..., she doesnt want to hear about other gals; and you dont want to hear about other guys. It just sorta happens... And this is when it starts getting messy...
