So the time is slowlier around BH., Lats assume I am hanging around one BH (with a girl and stuff of course), and 2 light years away, another BH with another guy (he is single but trying).
Our time is twice slowlier then without BH around. So I send him a light signal. It will travel 2 years, but for us it would be 1 year.
So for us we exchanged information faster then speed of light??.

wtf? you need to ask your questions more clearly

No, it would still be 2 years. Remember the distance is 2 light years, and time is slowed for everyone and everything in the vicinity of a black hole. So, if time is slowed for you, so it is for the light signal that you send. There is no distinction between any kind of mass or energy for the time slowing effect near a black hole.
Remember that a black hole sucks into itself everything, including light because of its huge gravity.

No, because if you were still in a distance to a black hole that you survive its gravitational pull, these effects on "time" wouldn't apply. If they do, you are to close to survive and you friend wouldn't get your signal of light any more within 2 years, but maybe within 10 years ... and it would never ever a signal come back to you, 'coz you'd be gone meanwhile. .

On the contrary. If you send a signal, it will take 2 years to arrive to your friend (as expected), but you won’t see it bouncing back to you. It will take too long. Since light is moving in a bent space, it will seem to you that your friend doesn’t move and any signal he tried to send to your girlfriend in his final seconds (before crossing event horizon) will shift towards red. Exactly the opposite as your reasoning.

no time isn't slower around a black hole, time is slower for moving things, and in the cases of relativity it's due to the speed of light. It just happeneds black holes spin so fast that light can't escape form it, so the light would travel very slow and then you'd be getting very deep into theoretical things.
