[QUOTE=Jackie888;2528504]As I understand it, the Mexican culture is less direct than the American direct culture. So when you turn someone down nicely, you do it softly with a plain "gracias." In fact this is the norm around the world including Asia and Europe. You do this to avoid embarrassing the other party. And I often say this to a woman to avoid embarrassing her with a rejection. It is a tough job and I empathize with her struggle.

On the other hand, the meseros are dickheads. Many are borderline convicts. So you do have to say "no" to ensure that you are the boss. Personally I have been known to use a universal sign language when a waiter tries a scam. I give them the bird.[/QUOTE]It's all about situation and context. As another poster explained, on the street vs inside a Zona club are completely different situations.

[QUOTE=LuvMexicanas;2528433]Why enter by foot when you can just PM Jinxx and get dropped off right in front of your Tijuana hotel? Do it and thank me later.[/QUOTE]Absolutely.

[QUOTE=Rextor;2528429]And how does one cross back into the US on foot? I've heard that pedwest is closed, which is what I usually use.[/QUOTE]Depending on the night if you cross back after 8 pm there tends to be minimal wait and if you go back even later sometimes no wait. It's not an exact science.

[QUOTE=Frogg;2528479]This does not apply inside clubs, resturants, or any venue. It applies when walking on the sidewalk or street, out and about. I suppose the original thread was dealing with meseros--that's different. A firm 'no' is in order.[/QUOTE]Actually a "no mames wey" might be appropriate there.

Yes, my advice was for use with all the vendors that harass you. You could use it in the club. For example with the snack guy that comes around. But the Spanish equivalent of GTFO is more appropriate when the try to charge you for something you didn't order.

Went to hotel Korea to drink, got ganged up on by staff. Felt like the day I got choked out on street. The problem was I bought a beer for a heavy waitress who asked me to. The thing is I was just there to drink, hang out, look at my phone didn't want working girl. So $8 drink for this girl, set off the radar for the 25 female and male waiters who thought, wow, this guy has money for her, he will defiantly buy drink for everyone in here. 1st, the male waiter wouldn't leave us alone, he literally was picking up our drinks every 45 seconds to see if they were empty and standing next to us not walking away. He saw me getting pissed and waiving him away so tried to play the friendly guy shake my hand. I don't shake hands. He wouldn't leave I told the girl I didn't want another drink with her, he bought drinks over anyway. Once they realized I won't pay all the waiters bought a girl over every 7 seconds until one female waiter sat next to me tobask me why they are bringing woman over every 6 seconds. I explained cause I bought the female waiter a drink. So I get up to leave they throw more beers on my table and start more begging me to stay surrounded by 3 men. I didbt know what was gona happen. This is supposed to be a hk club but staff is not trained. ID been going every week for 3 months never again. As soon as I walked out at the corner cops jumped from van told me to get in. The. Let me stay in street. They were obsessed to find drugs. Had 5 minute argument with them over viagra pills of different shapes he didn't recognize. He even handed me 1 dollar he took from back pocket. Anyway walked into Gloria bar upstairs mad packed with Mexican men but that place is 3 x worse for covid than hk. Walked into the bar, above playboy club, that place was actually good. A number of attractive woman in it. No pressure to buy drinks for them tipped a dancer. I'd defiantly go back to that place.

I'll usually say "Mas tarde" or "Tal vez en otro momento". Or a wave of the hand and a shake of the head while saying "Gracias".

[QUOTE=Frogg;2528479]I suppose the original thread was dealing with meseros--that's different. A firm 'no' is in order.[/QUOTE]Yep, I was talking about meseros who bring drinks that I neither ordered nor want. Dickus Maximus said that I shouldn't say "no, gracias" to a mesero because it would make me look like a gringo.

Strangely, this was part of my lesson on Duolingo today.

I plan on visiting the second week of March for the first time. What are some good hotels to stay in that Mileroticos girls will come to but also close to HK?

Damn dogers. You must have the worse luck of anyone when it comes to Tijuana.

As far as the bars and covid. I have been staying out of that petri dish known as HK 7th floor. On the other hand, when I'm in Tijuana I practicly live in the La Gloria speakeasy with no problem.

[QUOTE=AdweyLand;2528786]I plan on visiting the second week of March for the first time. What are some good hotels to stay in that Mileroticos girls will come to but also close to HK?[/QUOTE]Well, Mileroticos girls are independent and they all have different ideas for what is acceptable. Some will even go to the zona. On the other hand, some will only go to a love motel like La Mansion. But in general, most will go to any decent hotel or motel.

And it depends on how close is "close". Do you want to be able to walk to the zona? Hotels like [URL=http://www.hotelticuan.mx/]Ticuan[/URL] ($80-$100) and [URL=http://www.hotelcaesars.com.mx/]Caesars[/URL] ($50-$80) are about a 10 minute walk through well-lit touristy areas. Generally safe to walk almost any time -- or a $2 uber will get you there in 5 minutes. [URL=http://hotelvillatij.com/]Villa de Zaragoza[/URL] ($60-100) is a bit off Revo, but still not far -- it is more like a motel, so girls can go straight to your room without checking in at the front desk. All are available on the hotel booking sites, but may be cheaper to book directly.

And if a 10-minute uber ride is acceptable, there are dozens of decent hotels all around Tijuana. This list from an agency is a good overview of the kinds of places a decent girl will go:

Also, contrary to rumors, the HK club remains closed as I confirmed last night. Thanks for the tip on La Gloria which will be on the agenda tonight for sure.

He touches my drink and automatically, I tell him I want a new waiter.

I also always keep the vitamins in their original packaging, because I know that it is nearly impossible to tell the different between these and contraband. Original packaging have identification names on them, so there are no confusion to as what they are.
