Sosua Reports

[Doker44]

The blogger Russell who lives and blogs in Sosua is having a fucntion there and reported that BB was now Oasis. He could be wrong but I doubt it.

I don't post here anymore for this very reason and why people I know that are expats that live there that have valuable info don't bother either because of the complete and utter bad info of guys that are suppose to be insiders that have hijacked this forum with bad info. Making this mistake is inexcusable! How do you even make this mistake! If you are wrong you should ban yourself! I have literally seen you idiots post something is open because some "chicken man" and I am literally standing on Pedro looking at the closed business. I really wonder how often these so called "Know it all's" are down here!

To anybody researching these forums trying to gather new info take some of these regular posters with a grain of salt, they are probably sitting in NY and come down once a year. So sad this used to be one of the best forums on ISG years ago but a few guys have ruined it.

Rant over!

BB's has its occasional flaws, but makes a real effort to fix them. Its facilities are good quality for the most part. It was where I got introduced to the DR mongering scene, and I consider it the business standard for that type of establishment. For comfort and convenience, it is very good quality for the money. The fact that it is celebrating 16 years in business is undeniable testimony to that.

I saw the newsletter as well. Looks like things are alive and swinging there!

I too got my very first mongering cherry popped at BB's. I ended up hitting Sosua on the same trip, and immediately fell in love with her (Sosua) (circa 2008). Did not ever end up going back to Blackbeard's after that, but I have always steered newbie mongers to the place. Had I not gone to Sosua that first trip, I definitely would have continued going. Nothing bad to say about the place.

There should not even be a debate about this. Just take a look at the website that was found through google. The pictures here are of Field of Dreams, not Blackbeards.

A lot of what is posted here must be taken with a pinch of salt as it appears to have been written with a pinch of snuff.

It's Field Of Dreams that changed to Oasis not BB. It changed about 3 months or so ago & Pedro is no longer involved with it.

It sure wasn't Blackbeard's. I get their monthly newsletter and they plan on celebrating their 16th year in business. Compare that with the alternatives out there. FOD, going through yet another reincarnation, is in a precarious location. Its ideally located, across from the Playa Dorada resort complex, so guests at the resort can pop out for a quickie. At the same time, its location, back off the road, in a walled compound, struggles to avoid too much attention from local politicians. BB, located in a location that is too isolated for some, has been able to ward off the politicians eager to make a reputation, because it is not close to a tourism venue. Its walled complex shields the easily scandalized from the partying activities inside.

The infamous Blackbeards is under new management and has changed its name. It is now Oasis and has new owners. It wil be interesting tp see if it can survive in the hostile enviroment of anti puta efforts.

I was in the vicinity a couple months ago and dropped in to look around.

It looked like it was laid back, well run and a cool place to hang out! Definitely didn't look like it was on the way down!

If I wasn't connected down here, I could easily spend a few days there, with the great local beach and local cooking around the corner. Plus a couple of inviting bars on the beach, just around the bend!

They will lose their domesticity and replace the traditional role of the woman as homemaker, child-rearer and husband-pleaser with the American role of women which is money-grubbing, ball-busting, lazy, good-for-nothing.

I have a little trouble with that definition of "American women", in fact of all women. Whether in the DR or everywhere else I have visited, the mothers, despite their jobs (or lack of jobs) and other related pressure, manage to be the prime support for their children. Lazy? Raising children is a full time job and the "Western or Eastern" women do that every day in addition to their regular jobs. Many moons ago, my own mom, growing up in India, was a school teacher and she juggled two existences. I certainly would be nobody without her. I can also cite another present day example from my own personal life. Blaming women is a non-starter.

I would say this though: it was better (perhaps women would disagree) for women to be the home makers alone as the demands were a lot less compared to what a woman has to do today. Certainly, the mothers in the baby-boomer generation has had a modicum of comfort that their predecessors did not have. But, note this: long before women's emancipation, came WWII, and it is that demand that got the women move from home to factories and other places when the men were at war. Of course, you just could not put the genie back into the bottle once war was over.

If I get serious with a Filipina and have her move in with me it will not be in close proximity to her moocher relatives.

Smart, very smart decision. Don't ask me how I know, LOL.

I had a buddy who married and brought his girl to ATl. She went from the barrios of the DR to ATL. She was home sick with in weeks of arriving She went back home and never returned. He paid big money to get his divorce. I am always surprised by the guys who are out of control in love with these girls. Bringing thousands of dollars in gifts and paying appartments and life styles. Every trip I meet a guy whose nose is wide open. They describe how they have all these things in their luggage for their lady love. I bite my tongue every time.

That is not unique to women from the DR. More than one GI has brought home a bride from a foreign country who found themselves miserable in a new, strange environment. A foreign culture, everyone speaking a foreign language, not knowing how to do simple things that are easily done "back home. " It takes a toll. Depends on many factors. Can the girl communicate in English, drive a car, etc? Is there a Dominican community she can tap into, or is she completely isolated? One can imagine moving with a new wife to Taiwan, Korea, etc, and feeling cut off from family, friends, familiar food, etc. Some people can handle it, some can't. When there are local Dominican communities, ie, NJ, NY, etc, the girl can tap into a support group, make friends, get tips on the gringo life, etc.

I was in the military, and found that some families enjoyed being stationed in a foreign country, and others couldn't wait to return to the US. (And this is with the husband, wife, and kids together, with a complete American support system available to them). They couldn't or wouldn't try learning the language, mingling with locals, shopping, driving, public transport, etc.

I was really surprised when I came to live here, by the ex pats I met from all over, who were smart guys, ran businesses, restaurants and had been here a while.

The surprising part was that ALL of them, without exception, as I got to know and hang with them, had problems with their local GFs, even the wives they had kids with. They were watched, stalked and even slept in different beds. Unrealistic demands to support extended family, and so on. It wasn't working out at all.

Because they saw I had apparently stable and happy relationships, and also was a good listener, they all complained about the same stuff, enough so that it wasn't just an exception.

To be honest, though a lot of this stuff was discussed over a beer, when they "managed to slip away" for a while! So there's that consideration.

Their problems were that 1. They were emotionally or sexually tied to these ladies. 2. They shared living space. 3. They had business relationships with them, and 4. (worst of all) they had kids with them. They were generally generous in nature, but took an unacceptable amount of demands and abuse in return. But couldn't break away, and always went back for more of the same. Either that or they finished up tied to their kids, while the mother is somewhere in SD. The kids are beautiful, of course, and I can see the attachment. Then the matter of financial support rears its ugly head! Are they supporting their kids, or the mother's new boyfriend?

I told them that my situation depended on remaining completely independent of emotion, and setting the ground rules early on. That is the difficult part and you must be prepared to walk, no matter how good the sex, and I have only found two women that understood that, one for 8 years, and one who is still with me. Initially, we had two major differences over her desire to "own" me, and I walked both times. I told her 3 strikes is my philosophy, and she believes me. She has no key to my place, and comes only by invitation, although on weekends I make an exception, and she has the run of the place.

I am generous, and help her with a little money in return, depending on my budget, enough to improve her life a little, although it's a gift, not an obligation.

I look forward to my weekends with her, and so do my friends. Matter of fact the old GF's family and friends have adopted her and approve of her, since the other one went off to NJ. She now actually visits them while I am away. She and her 2 main girl friends insist on cleaning my place from top to bottom before they leave.

But it's all about control, either you are, or she will be. After a while, everybody is comfortable with that understanding. It's much easier when you are older and can suppress the ego to be believe that you are god's gift to women! But some guys, being human, let their emotions, their egos, and their dicks, rule their lives. Needy and insecure means pussy whipped, and the locals can spot one a mile away!

It's not mongering, in the usual sense of the word, but I still get amazing access to other women in the relationship, and I don't kid myself, that it is anything other than pay for play! I remember what my first GF's aunt once said to me, when after asking me why didn't I marry her, after 8 years, and I quipped next year I may be dead, and what will happen to her then? Without hesitation she said, "That's ok, she'll love you till you die, then she'll just find somebody else!" Now THAT's a philosophy I can understand!

I've had 10 good years, so far, and this one has done more for my health and well being (with her attitude, and home cooking) than any woman I've ever had!

No complaints here!

This is precisely why, in my opinion, if you want to settle down with a foreign girl (or surrender as Chris Rock says) you should do it in their country, not yours. One, they will miss their homeland, relatives, food, etc. As OK pointed out in his example. Two, we tend to fall in love with younger women whose age difference is socially unacceptable in the prudishness that represents the USA. And three, foreign women will become quickly tainted by American women if they stay in the USA for very long. They will lose their domesticity and replace the traditional role of the woman as homemaker, child-rearer and husband-pleaser with the American role of women which is money-grubbing, ball-busting, lazy, good-for-nothing. Just my. 02.

I will likely retire in the Philippines. If I get serious with a Filipina and have her move in with me it will not be in close proximity to her moocher relatives.

We have a couple of names for those types: Pathetic Losers or Pussy Whipped!

Tomjackin,

Saw our girl yesterday in Sosua. She is retired from the night life and working at Mango bar on the beach.
