Our CEO, Q Zhao, had the privilege to interview The Economist’s correspondent, Roseann Lake, on her new book “Leftover in China, The Women Shaping the World’s Next Superpower”.

The book explored lives of four individual women against a backdrop of colourful anecdotes, citing interviews and research to show how these ‘leftover women’ are the linchpin to China’s future. The English edition of this book…
If you are still single in three years, would you start to adjust and perhaps, lower your expectations for your future partner? Our experiences shape our thinking as we grow. Our expectations, needs and wants are constantly remodeled after these experiences. As we grow older each year -- it’s already 2018 --, do we raise our expectations as well? More specifically, when it comes to relationships, do we also raise the expectations we have for our future partner, assuming you’re still single of course? In this week’s survey, we tackled…
“2018. New year, new resolutions, new me.” We often tell ourselves to trust our feelings, feelings of love, and go with them. As Amelia Brand, portrayed by Anna Hathaway in the movie “Interstellar”, famously said in the movie: “Maybe it (love) means something more - something we can't yet understand.

Maybe we should trust that, even if we can't…

Let’s jump right into the numbers, shall we? *rubs hands* The results Out of the 357 male respondents, 67.8% of them are open to such relationships. Interestingly, 91% of…
Age. An undeniably important factor when it comes to dating and relationships. I mean, to be really frank, I'm 24 years old this year (I think you can trust me on this). You can't possibly ask me to date someone who is old enough to be my.. mum. Yes, age is an important factor, and it can be a touchy one. Just look at all the dating apps in the market. Age is a must-have factor, and it determines the primary group of people you choose to give a chance…

Again, I'm just kidding). So are you ready? *rubs hands* The Second Poll After the first poll that we did previously on the types of gifts girls really want (if you have not read it, you…
Have you ever walked into a shopping mall, browsed a few stores, flirted a little with the salesperson, and in the end, the three hours you spent only resulted in you buying a cup of iced Americano from Starbucks? Hell yeah, that's relatable to me. In these divided times, there is one thing that guys can agree on: It is a headache thinking of gifts for your girlfriend. Come on, I know you agree. This was one problem I faced with my ex-girlfriend. I'm sure guys would agree (and girls…
Starting today, 2RedBeans will be undergoing significant changes in an effort to improve the online dating experience and increase the chances of connecting. What's changed? A review process: To improve overall quality, photos and profiles will be reviewed before they're available to the public. That means no more pictures of your dog as your profile photo.
