How old are you? I've made a new friend yesterday who she is from Armenia. First , we talked about her Chinese name. There are two Chinese words "莉" and "利". That's an interesting conversation. And , of course, we have different points each other. But that's OK. People ,of course, who has right to chose their names by themselves. Second, I wanna start a Chinese subject. Then, I said "As I know, in Western countries, ask new friend's age especially women that is not considered polite. But in Chinese, that's OK. What's your point?" . I said the subject in Chinese. Then she send me a voice message. "Sorry but I don't understand." I reply with smiles "That's Ok. ....." . I send the subject in English. Then she told me "If someone who looks like 35 - 40 years old. Asking age is not polite. But to young, it's OK." Then I reply with laugh "I was born in 1981." . Do you guys smile when you read about this? haha ... I love to meet foreign friends and love to talk about culture. That's fun.

Well done!

I put ??? where I could not work out what you are saying.

Your use of 'subject' is strange: you must have a misleading translation for it, so look it up in a good dictionary.
