Some really good advice here. I'm a guy who made a relationship work for a couple years. The key is the relationship. There is no such thing as temporary help. As Zeos said, "help" provides an increase in standard of living. But they get accustomed to that and need your continued help. The example Zeos gives is very common.

With a relationship, it can work. But even that has challenges, depending on the living situation. But great advice, Zeos.

No such thing as "temporary help" ??

Huh?

You send some help to a girl you think deserves a little something, and say that's it.

You don't have to put her on a weekly allowance, LOL.

Yoooo! Hello fellow mongers. Inaugural post here on the international side, I've got a few posts on the USA end of things with "Earlystart83" profile. Wanted to give a shot out to the active accounts that share knowledge and experience here and really give a huge head start to those that want to do a bit a research. Respect!

Tiny background: late thirties, American, 50 nations, tons of states. Mongered in many of those spots despite the vast majority of the trips not being "mongering trips". . Done some quintessential legs of the worldwide monger scene: Thailand, Tijuana, Brazil, Vietnam, DR, Costa Rica, Holland, Germany etc etc. Experienced the high end FKK / thermas styles, revolving door Hot Tocs (blow job salons), to abandoned lot / back alley <$10 streetwalker blowjobs in sketchy areas. Really enjoy the streetwalker tango in USA despite all of the potential risks (cops, getting robbed, drug addicted chicks, hyper low quality broads at.

Times etc). The thrill of that can be pretty exhilarating and sometimes you can find some diamonds in the rough. But that is specifically about just getting a blowjob in the car here and there. Done some fun streetwalker car acquisitions in Italy, CR, DR. But generally it's been by foot when I find myself abroad, so I'm ready to hit the pavement in MED.

I'm so excited to try Colombia. Heard about the quality and quantity for over a decade but the trip just never came together. From what I've gathered it's a special place with a lot of different options and styles. Here's my proposed plan: I'm there for 5 days. I know I love a good street scene and from what I've deduced from some research is: like all.

Places there is a certain level of risk, much lower percentage of top level chicks (compared to other higher end options), but with experience and some Spanish skills there are some treasures to excavate. I've got a seemingly solid air Bnb within about 12 blocks of plaza Bortero (south west of it across Oriental, seemingly not crazy sketchy based on reviews and research). I figure I can just hop over to some of the centro areas I've jotted down and peep the scene and slowly start to gauge the situation. I have no desire to hit Llera. Might hit up a few casas. I'the like to have at least one La isla type experience to see what the top end looks like so I can compare to the same levels / styles elsewhere in Brazil, Germany, Hong Kong etc. But I'm way more excited about the full on freelance scene where there are a wider range of variables, you satisfy that addictive feeling of a chase / hunt, and there is plenty of room for negotiation.

Would be stoked to hear what some of y'all think of that plan. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and YMMV but I know what I like and from what I hear, the centro street scene rivals any as far as price: quality goes. I'm aware of most pitfalls and I keep my head on a swivel so I'm not one to fall victim to most bonehead situations. I've also been known to love to ask girls to take photos and / or film which doesn't seem as conducive while chasing tail in higher end / nice spots or even most casas. My goal isn't to get deals, and awesome rates, it's just to get find high quality Colombianas, and once they've proven their worth, keep 'them around for more hours, overnight, or even repeat. Thoughts / advice?

[MaddTraveler]

All great advice in general.

I follow my own rules, however.

I know who is deserving and who's playing or trying to play me.

Girls are in different buckets of our particular friendships / relationships.

If I help out a particular girl who I have a great relationship with, and who I believe is deserving, I help out, and I really don't care what she uses the money for.

If she happens to get too "give me give me" later, I just say No if I want. It's not difficult..

I can relate to this 100% and most of the other comments on this topic are also correct in their own way. In my early years I was a total mess, confused, wanted to help various people I'd meet in person, like feeling bad, guilty, etc; Until one day a fellow gringo sat me down and schooled me on this and how to tackle it.

This is by far the most complication we get in this lifestyle. We travel for fun, extend our stay, oops we decided or found the skills and balls to mingle with the locals, blend in, even starting to dress like a chico, then let's roleplay a relationship, and that's where the danger starts.

In nearly 15 years in this I've had my fair share of issues but usually mostly handled. In that amount of years I've sent less than $500 USD total to random novias, friends, and I still think that's too much. I think I'm the El Cheapo WU papi of the century. That's in about 15 yrs! Like many of the comments state, your girl will ask $50 for a minor emergency and you'll feel like an asshole if you don't send it, especially if it's a local you've been banging for free which were my cases. Local novias will happen in my extended stays of 30 days or longer. One thing however I never sent nor will ever send money to a prepago or women I've paid for sex. I would rather drink bleach before I do that. But come on amigos, I don't think it's a big deal if she was a real friend, and in fact you can help a friend that you're not banging. That's just my general philosophy although I barely practice it. Yes I'm super friendly, make friends easily, speak average Spanish. I'm financially secure, great job, I invest, but my personality and core values deeply hates the feeling of being a bank account to someone or befriended for such opportunities. Again I respect those who do.

I would say to take the same caution that we all seem to be hinting, that is key. Don't be a chomp and allow someone to use you or play you, and for me that's the line I carefully study to know who's really in need vs who's playing games. Then of course when no games or not are played, if I send a one time gift it means one time, period. Get a job, go start hooking if you haven't already, do what you have to do. Sometimes I would bore them with my high bills and taxes and scare the shit out of them till they pity me and stop asking LOL. Play reverse psychology and manipulate if you have to. And yes, I am an asshole too. These girls or any indv you befriend from anywhere who's much much poorer than you, well technically is not your real friend, you became a source. It's the same concept as to why most rich folks or celebrities don't mingle or marry regular average joes. It's silly and yes it still happens for real love blah blah horseshit.

I get phone numbers from all types of locals when I travel incl cops, merchants, business owners, novias, putas, gringos, you name it. With all those encounters I have yet to meet one, except for the gringos, where I would gain anything from their friendship or me not being a source or an opportunity. If you can't tell yet I'm all about a balanced scale. Life itself and everything in it should be so or at least I try to make it so. I don't even consider myself wise, what I maintain is basically learned over years w some experience, and some good pointers by few fellow travel buds.

Now, let's go fuck some more WG.

I plan to stay at the Mansion for a couple of nights because I am a lazy fuck and I enjoy a pool but I am looking for a nice hotel that is guest friendly either near parque lleras or central. I know it is a big spread but still asking. First time in MDE. I have the World Traveler 69 map and intend to use and report on it but the guest at the hotel thing, I need advice.

I also love a pool, but heard many times the pool at Mansion is very very cold and hardly ever anyone swims in it, including the girls, just a heads up.

Can you give me the website for this mansion place and what is this world traveler map you speak of?

Sending money is a sucker's game.

About a year ago I posted what I called Villainy's Rules .

I won't repost them again (do I hear a collective sigh of relief?

Rule 3 A.

Never send money to a girl you don't know. This should be an absolute. First and foremost you can't be sure you're sending it to a girl. That's right it may be a guy with some girl's / model's photos. You might even discover this by using the on-line program called "Tin-Eye". Nevertheless, even if it really is a girl. You don't know her, so why would you ever consider sending her money? If you are really desperate, send me the money and I'll send you some naked pictures (of a girl, of course) jajajaja and you can fantasize all you want. OK Mr. Admin. That was a joke.

Rule 3 B.

I read complaints about guest fees at Haven. I read this on tripadvisor so it might it's best to confirm with the hotel.

I really liked Haven. It's was pretty nice had a rooftop pool and bar and guest friendly.

I think helping out for a time may be a good thing. ....

There was a young girl that just came out of period told me she didn't have money to buy food. I said take metro to me and I will buy food for her. She said she did not have Civica card. I said that was the only condition I could buy her food. She showed up because her mother gave her the taxi money. LOL. So I took her to have dinner and gave her some money to go home with, and she took taxi back.

That above is not even the observation I try to make. What happened after is she asked my wingman for money after she got money from me. I taught her a bad lesson. LOL.

My guess is the girls that take metro regularly are usually the girls with regular job. Many girls I know don't even have metro card so I guess it probably has nothing to do with P4 P.

Chica tried to insist she meant $200 usd not 200 k pesos LOL. Needless to say she left with the 200 k smh.

Better yet, explicitly state that you're talking mil pesos in your communications.

Of course, she could still try to say you agreed on a USD amount. But being very explicit that the deal in is pesos will avoid this most of the time.

[Dcrist0527]

I think helping out for a time may be a good thing. But there is a huge problem with getting in and not being able to get out. The issue is that the lifestyle of the gal and her child or children will rapidly change. And I'm not talking anything extravagant necessarily. I know from experience how this works. Gal 1 moved into a better apartment, still basic, but better. And gave up prostitution. Got a civi job. Problem. Big big shortfall in money for basic needs, food, rent, etc. Etc. So I continue to help. Guess what. Lifetime commitment, or in some cases just too much to afford. Believe me there is no good way to exit. People get hurt very very badly. I could elaborate but I won't. You may be helping the greatest gal in the world, you may be in love, whatever. But the minute their life improves with your contributions those contributions become a necessity. If your pocketbook is deep enough and you have the intention of a permanent connection, ok perhaps. But only if you have a lot of extra cash and are prepared to make a real relationship out of it if it comes to that.

Some really good advice here. I'm a guy who made a relationship work for a couple years. The key is the relationship. There is no such thing as temporary help. As Zeos said, "help" provides an increase in standard of living. But they get accustomed to that and need your continued help. The example Zeos gives is very common.

I feel like I reached a milestone yesterday. Sort of proud of myself. I walked from a session yesterday that I was very much looking for because I had visited before. She was almost 20 minutes late in letting me into the apartment. Then said she couldn't do an hour because she had to leave in 40 minutes. So I asked about the reduced rate / medio and it was the same as the hour. So I just said no gracias and walked. If she had apologized for the poor communication around letting me in I would have handled it differently probably. I figured I probably wouldn't have a good time at that point anyways.

Ask her how much the average Colombian makes in a month. Then when she answers say and you seriously think someone is going to give you 900,000 pesos for a couple of hours? Since 200 sounds like a low number for currency for them, they think it is nothing to us.

Perhaps you can clarify where you met this Chica, because it doesn't sound like a Centro street hoe.
