Heart Breaker.

I've been here now for a little over a year and a half.  Hard to believe.  There's so much more I could say about my time here, but for now, I'll continue to record in snippets.

The other day I got a text message, or what locals here call a 'short message' on my cell phone.  I usually ignore whatever comes through on han zi, but I did read this one through:

我们能不能不分手亲爱的别走！

[Can we not break up? Sweetheart, please don't leave!]

After about an hour or so, it was followed up by this:

为什么不回？难道你要我死吗？

[Why haven't you replied? Could it be that you want me to die?] 

Yes, I'm breaking your heart out there, I know .
