Batam make me happy

Of late I have still continued to visit the same gal. Have not paid her tips ever since my last few visits. Am truly broke! However, she has still treated me the same like the earlier time when I had given her tips. She has said that it is okay if I did not gave her tips. Had bought me meals when I was broke and paid even for the cab fare or local buses etc. However, I would fork out for the ferry ticket and hotel accomodation.

My trips budget there are normally bare minimum due to my own high commitments here. Have brought her out for shopping but have never even ask for a t-shirt etc. Still shedding the same amount of tears whenever I am with her and when I am about to depart. Had never mention to me to buy her out so far even when I had earlier gave her tips.

She is suggesting to me to follow her and to work in Jakarta.

Had even told me that she would buy me an air-ticket from Batam to Jakarta under her own account once her contract expires in November a couple of times but I simply said "see how". For the Chinese, if one comes from a traditional home, bringing one's partner back after she is abroad or away for a period of time is normally seen as a serious matter and it implies that the guy/gal is her steady boy/galfriend. Anyone who knows what is the implication if I were to follow her back to her kampung.

By agreeing, is it an implication of me marrying her on the trip to Jakarta? She has said that we will be sleeping in the same bedroom in her brother's house. Care to enlighten me on this point. I would not be working or staying in Jakarta.
