Cartagena Reports

[Rzrfl69]

I was talking to my friend from Medellin, she's in Cartagena right now and she's complaining the Venezuelans are leaving for 200 k. And it seems from tinder, Instagram, and the videos being put out that there are a ton of girls there at the moment.

Any recent reports on how things are at the airport? Knock on wood I never experienced it. But heard stories of hour long waits at immigration coming in. Luckily I usually have early flights.

I'm debating a trip to cartagena in July. I wanted a trip for punting but also a beach. Reading the forums here and elsewhere it appears hollywood beach is good but a lot of people complain about beach vendors. Is it that bad all over?

Like Medellin is there a Cartagena version of the mansion or safe-ish gringo area I. E. Poblado? Any guidance for a first timer would be appreciated. Cheers.

I am sure you are familiar with the expression "Take a moment and walk in another mans shoes. ". That is not a natural thought process.!

Or as Billy Connolly would say "Before you judge someone, trying walking a mile in his shoes. After that who cares? He's a mile away and you've got his shoes!

I can't with this guy hahaha.

No you can't. And for good reason.

Just ignoring his posts.

No you are not ignoring my posts. You are reading every word. And then commenting in a passive aggressive way each and every time. Below I will answer the questions that you asked.

Is this guy facilitating groups?? Or just wanting to feel a victim?

Neither. Just pointing out biases. In life I am winning, in all aspects of the word. Only individuals that allow their happiness to be affected by others are victims. Let's see if the complaints continue and who makes them.

That's it on that!

Excellent. Continue to enjoy the mutual admiration society your community has established. Enjoy your trip. And I hope the (secret, unnamed) groups that bother you so much don't interfere with your next trip. Good day Sir!

Nypher for sure you still have to watch your back. But it's nothing like it was 4 months ago. There is a large police presence now and they are and have been cracking down.

Looking forward to my trip soon. There's no shortage of girls there. That's for sure! Something for everyone's taste.

Another clue is that if she makes her living fucking guys and you are one of them. It's prostitution.

There are 50 shades of grey on this. I have had women I met as prostitutes who became friends, either while they still worked or after they worked. One moved in with me, and one I travel with regularly off the clock. Sometimes we fucked for money, sometimes we fucked for no money, sometimes we didn't fuck and I gave them money anyway, and sometimes we didn't fuck and I didn't give them money. If you need to classify other people, if they still have sex with other people for money they are prostitutes; if they don't anymore they are former prostitutes. That is a job they have (or had) and it doesn't mean they are somehow disqualified from having "real" relationships. I don't feel any need to categorize or classify my relationships (yes, they are relationships), and if anyone else wants to offer their totally uninformed opinion on my relationships I will have a good laugh.

That is right. Relationships (real or otherwise) are fluid. That is how things work in the real world. You and I feel the same way about those using their own definitions to define the relationships of others. And then attacking you when you reject their narrow minded thinking and present your alternative views. Speaking to you from a point of superiority like they are a parent and you are the child. Most are simply keyboard warriors who would never speak to anyone in person the way they do from the safety of sitting behind their keyboard. I been putting up with mess like that from the same people for nearly ten years. It gets tiring.

How does the expression go? Those of you who think you know it all really irritate those of us who actually do know it all. LOL!

No need for arguing over a matter that is so simple and which the 'arguers' are actually on the same page. P4P is a relationship that is based entirely on money. A 'real' relationship is not based entirely on money, both parties have made a commitment to each other. There are usually several factors that could lead to such a commitment being made and the financial resources of one or other of the parties may be one such factor. Other factors could be looks, background, interests, etc.

Good point and good summary. Yeah, we got a newbie here who is arguing just to argue. There is no point to any of it outside of his trying to show how "brilliant he is.

I am always amazed how many folks seem to think that everyone else needs to be like them.

I think that is just human nature. Everyone sees life through our own individual paradigm. I am sure you are familiar with the expression "Take a moment and walk in another mans shoes. ". That is not a natural thought process. I can tell you from my personal life experience that it took a long time to realize that everyone did not think like me because they were all not as intelligent as I was. Once I realized that, I understood the world much better and my personal interactions improved.

In the end, only my dick matters. And it is fun talking about this stuff here. But it is the moisture of the pussy and my dick inside of it until I ejaculate that matters to me. How I get to that point is a matter of personal preference and not up for debate or judgement by other people. LOL!

[JustTK]

could we say that in a committed relationship neither party is fucking other people? . Or at least I'd hope the woman isn't LOL.

[SubCmdr]

And since it was open both would be "fucking other people". Meanwhile, a more interesting question is if a relationship where the man is fucking other people is a real relationship. I say it is not. Unless the man is open about it. Because real relationships are not based on deception (IMO).

Also, could we say that in a committed relationship neither party is fucking other people? . Or at least I'd hope the woman isn't LOL.

I agree with this. Also, could we say that in a committed relationship neither party is fucking other people? . Or at least I'd hope the woman isn't LOL.

I mean videos interviewing girls. Come on. It's just too much. No more discretion.

[SubCmdr]

Sorry you disagree with me. I understand your need to be right. Everyone who reads our exchanges can see that is the case. But if you need someone to tell you that you are right to feel better about yourself then you need to talk to one of the girls you are in a real relationship with and ask for that affirmation from her. Because you will not get it in anyplace in this entire forum as you continue to challenge my personal views because you disagree with them.

My degree in Sociology from one the top ten departments in the discipline and allows me to speak with authority on the subject. In my opinion, prostitution is what the society says it is. This is not a point of fact. It is a point of opinion. Reasoned opinion but opinion none the less. I know I am not going to open your mind on the subject because like many people here who cannot accept that others do not agree with them I am just putting my ideas out there. Disagreement just to be disagreeable is not my game. My game is the intellectual sharing of ideas. And I believe what I write. Call me stupid or and idiot if you like. Name calling says more about the person doing the name calling.

Make a deal to have sex for life and it is called marriage. Make a deal to have sex for 1 hour and it is called prostitution. But you do not buy your prostitute a house, car, clothes, food and other items of life that wind up costing much more than paying the hourly fee for a prostitute. So in my mind marriage looks a lot like having your prostitute on retainer for life. And if you think that is not in the minds of girl the world over then you should get out and experience the world a little more. No blessings needed. I there was such thing as true love there would not me multiple marriages and divorce. Hell, people even move one after their spouse dies. Tell me why some of the richest girls in the entire world a rich because they divorced a rich husband. Who actually made that money? And you are going to tell me that "real relationships are not based on money"?

The deal that is made between two people is a bright line issue only to the individuals making the deal. I don't know how you can define a relationship that is not based on money because in a shared money relationship stop putting in your half and sit on your ass all day while your wife works her ass off. And see how long that lasts? Money is a core issue in relationships. It is estimated (depending upon who you want to believe) that 20 - 40% of marriages end in divorce over financial issues. A relationship may not be based on money. But is sure looks to be pretty important in a relationship for sure. Personally I don't believe you can separate the issues.

Even Ray Charles can see how disingenuous you are and he is blind and dead, but go ahead and disagree for the sake of disagreeing. There is a thick line between paying for pussy and being in a traditional relationship with someone. Bless the person's heart who can't or claims he can not tell the difference.

[SubCmdr]

Well allow me to rephrase real relationship to relationship that is not based on money. But I prefer my relationships not to be based on whether I have or give the other person money or not. I prefer my partner to like me for me, not because the check is coming.

On this we are in complete agreement. And that is my preference also. Now I'll wait for another 1000 of your replies to my posts for the next point of agreement.
