Hello everyone! I'm 31F, working as a pharmacist at a hospital in China. My English is pretty basic — I can read a little and use some English apps, but when it comes to speaking... I've literally never opened my mouth to speak English 😭

Honestly, I'm actually quite chatty when I type — I have a lot of interests and can talk about all kinds of topics. But the second I try to speak, my brain just freezes. It's really frustrating.

I'm looking for a partner（native） who needs Mandarin practice. We can encourage each other, help each other output, and hopefully become good friends along the way. If you're patient and don't mind someone who's starting from zero with speaking, I'd love to hear from you

I’ve never been in a relationship in my whole life, and it’s pretty likely I’ll choose to stay single forever. I feel like I really need genuine friends and connections who are in the same boat as me—people I can walk through the rest of my life with. Chances are, I won’t have a partner, get married, or have kids. Back where I’m from, that’s really uncommon, and it’s caused a lot of tension and disagreements between me and my parents. Because of that, I’ve had to build my own way of living and thinking, just to keep my mind peaceful and healthy. I don’t know if there are other people out there going through the same thing, but I truly believe there must be. I hope we can support and inspire each other, grow together, and gradually become more mature and comfortable with who we are and the choices we make. Most of all, I hope all of us get to live our lives exactly the way we want to.
