Good! All the best. Some advise - hope for the best but be prepared for the worst. For God's sake dont freak her out by coming on too strong right out of the gate. Take it easy the first couple of dates to get a feel of how she feels.
First thing is to find out if she is single .. many a local here tend to compartmentalize their life, personal / work, and many many years ago I did ask a colleague out for dinner and in Holland V, and only then did I find out that she was engaged / ROM'd
And sheepishly I had to cut short my 'desert' plans and call it a day .. and her BF picked her up in Holland V.
And subsequently I ensured that the person is single and no bf (or gf ? well, that's a different story though it also exists in Singapore) before asking 'em out ... you never know ..
Well, now I don't do it cos I am off the shelf

Hence I advice when I can ..

Better than being friend zoned, IMHO.

now, now .. slow down.
G-Spot ? Of course, All Indians can find a G-Spot ! After all, G-Spot -or commonly known as Gold-Spot, is a well known fizzy drink / soda

Ah that explains the "virgin" bit!
Sorry couldn't resist

I'm Indian myself living in Singapore but way above the marraigeable age now. However I've known many Chinese girls over the years mainly on a socialising basis.
Two years ago a female Professor friend of mine from China came to India for a conference which I attended as well and we went together to Amtristra to visit the Golden Temple. We also went to the Pakistani border to see the daily ritual of closing the border gates. She was very excited seeing those tall handsome Indian soldiers guarding the border and got me to take some pictures with them.
She later told me that women in China thinks that Indian men are very handsome and have a lot of stamina. But the Chinese women don't know how to communicate with them. I suppose its vice-versa too!
So there you go. Give it a try .. but don't think about marraige just yet.

Please do keep us updated with your progress.
For some reason I can't quite fathom, our OP hasn't returned here to give us a progress report. So I guess we'll be forever pondering JR8's question...
Be careful what you wish for

Nice one but remember, this is Singaporean Chinese we are talking about here and I think it clear to most people that they are different from the mainland Chinese in many ways, just as how different India-born Indians are from Singapore-born, Malaysia-born, Australia-born etc...

I think while culture is an obvious factor to consider, we'll have to bear in mind that the love for one another is the most important

That being said, is this a one-sided love? Do you know how she feels about you? Maybe that's why OP hasn't checked in.

Also, it is a known fact that those mainland chinese woman who seek foreigner man usually prefer either oversea chinese males or caucasian males.
