曾经亲密的情侣分手之后，要如何处置那些充满美好回忆和甜蜜的物品？丢弃又舍不得，留下又担心引起以后的误会。日前在北京开业的"恐龙爱情银行"提供了这样一个私密场所。

In a small apartment room, two showcase cabinets are filled with all kinds of stuff - photos, baseball cap, stuffed toys, mug, computer games and even tablemat. Each one has a note with it about the owner's innermost feelings.

"She left me, taking all her things away and only left this tablemat."

"This is a Christmas gift that Xiaoxue gave me in 2003. She got married but I am not the bridegroom."

"She left me because she thought I spent too much time playing computer games. I put my games here. I stopped playing them but she will not come back."

This is actually a place that you can store your love, "The Dinosaurs' Love Bank". A young man Gong Yelong opened it a month ago in Beijing.

"I learned the concept of 'Love Bank' more than a year ago. And until last December, I opened the 'the Dinosaurs' Love Bank' and also an online store. In an ideal way, I think the love bank should give people the sense of security and trust just like normal banks. My love bank will try its best to serve the people with love related offers."

As he says, in the Dinosaurs' Love Bank, Gong provides all kinds of love-related services. People can store their tokens of love there to commemorate their departed love.

"One day I asked my friend by chance whether he had some thing that he wanted to keep, such as the gift from his ex-girlfriend. Although they broke up and have started new lives, he or she may still want to keep the memories. But sometimes, it may not be proper to store them at home so in my love bank, I have a service to deposit love tokens. And there is also a love deposit book, recording your love deposit and withdrawal."

Gong Yelong's concept actually came from Dr. Willard Harley from Germany. According to Dr. Harley, "inside all of us is a 'Love Bank' with accounts in the names of everyone we know. When these people are associated with our good feelings, 'love units' are deposited into their accounts, and when they are associated with our bad feelings, love units are withdrawn."

Well, Gong Yelong brings the idea into practice in China. He expanded it in a broader way. Within a month, his love bank has received about thirty love tokens and many have opened their own love bank accounts. Gong tries his best to regularize his business. He wants to transfer people's love and make his business meaningful.

"We have a detailed contract for deposit love tokens. It clears our regulations such as the right ownership when your storage is overdue. For example, if your deposit has expired then the bank will keep it for you for 2 months. After that time, we'll put your deposit online to sell. But we'll donate all the proceeds to charity organizations. I think it should make the money meaningful."

Besides the love deposit, the love bank can also help you to find your long-lost friend or help you to design a surprise for your lover, or produce a love video for you, just anything for love, the love between a couple and the love between friends and family.

No matter whether you need a love bank or not, the concept is quite practical. Try to be nice to the people around you, especially those you care about and you'll be a rich person in terms of love.
