Sosua Reports

[QUOTE=Funinthesun63; 1541247]Last time I was in Sosua, I tried the Scotia Bank atm up at the pharmacia / Metro bus stop & could only withdraw 5000 pesos. It was a Sunday night and maybe the limit was reduced for the weekend. This was end of February. Back in early January, I was able to get 10, 000 pesos per withdrawl but don't remember what day of the week I used it. I am told the limit per withdrawl at the ScotiaBank branch in Cabarete is 12, 000 pesos per withdrawl. Possibly, having a ScotiaBank card may make a difference, which I do not have. My wingman does, and pays no fees for atm withdrawls.

Seems to me all banks in Sosua are reducing their withdrawl limits and forcing us to pay more in fees. I checked several banks & the most I could get per withdrawl is 5000 pesos, unless you hold a debit card & account with the bank, then it might be sightly more.[/QUOTE]I too have used that SB ATM at the farmacia / bus station and could only withdraw a maximum of 5, 000 pesos per transaction. I believe the amount can be reduced for ALL ATM's for many reasons. Expected heavy tourist usage because of high season. Superbowl week generated extremely heavy usage. Heavy usage during the weekend like you said. Or perhaps when the machine has dispensed a certain amount of currency, and reaches a certain level, it automatically changes how much can be dispensed so it doesn't run out of money as fast. Once it can't meet any demand for cash, perhaps it registers the "temporarily out of service" message. I suspect that a certain time the next day, the machines are refilled and up and running again.

The Sosua SB ATM, I have got 5, 000 pesos one visit, and the next day was back to getting the 10, 000 max. Next time I use the ATM in PP I will check to see if I can get 12, 000 pesos max. I swear I tried to get above 10k before, and the machines wouldn't do it. Maybe it will dispense that amount for those with SB cards?

Having a SB card should make a difference. However, that also means having an account, and putting money in that account. I can bypass that by simply bringing enough US currency for the time I am in country, and go to the exchange places that give the maximum rate, which will be higher than the bank. For instance. Knowing I was going to be in the country from 1/25 until 2/27 I brought a little more than $5, 000 us cash. This is the 1st time staying this long so I wasnt sure how much I would need for that time frame. I changed my return date to mid March. That meant I would be spending more money towards my stay. I had to pay for the extra days towards my car rental, I bought a bicycle, and I paid for March rent for my spot. These expenditures as well as now having to spend more for chicas, and everything else, caused me to hit the ATM on 3 occasions. A total of 12 transactions, each 10, 000 pesos.

Early in my vacation, when I had most of my US cash, I started off taking 2, 000 US and went to get it exchanged at the place that IMO has the highest rate (one of the places where the change guys go ). That is Banco Providential on PC, across from Sinatras restaurant. Between Maui Mau and the small mercado. They tend to have the best rate around, but they are flaky when it comes to when they will exchange and how much. I think they cator more to businesses and the "change" guys. Sometimes they will tell you to come back at a certain hour. I think that is to discourage you.

Or tell you they can only exchange half of what you push through the window. Like in my case, they exchanged 1, 000 US instead of the 2, 000 I pushed through the window. Thats why I will always push more cash through the window than I really intend to exchange. That way if they turn me down for the full amount, I may end up exchanging what I wanted in the 1st place. The next place with a good rate, but slightly less than this bank, is the exchange place in the rear of the plaza where Orange is, next door to M & M massage.

After that, Western Union. After that, the Playero supermarket. In all instances a passport may be required. I did not use a passport at the one behind Orange, but I would recommend bringing it (or at least a copy) just in case.

There is a dominican gentleman named Mapello. (809) 491-3024. He is the mobile exchange guy. He often gives rates better than any of the other exchange guys. Maybe the same or better than WU. His rates will fluctuate along with the international daily rate. He is always on the move, often walking at a swift pace. And nobody fucks with him even though he carries a shit load of cash on his person. Lets say you are at the beach, New Garden / Baileys / Rockys but need money exchanged. This gentleman will get to you within a few minutes and exchange decent amounts of cash in an instant.

I was chillin at the playa one day, intending to go to WU to exchange. I didn't really want to leave the playa. So I called Mapello and told him I'm at #blah blah blah on the playa, I need to exchange money. He was there in less than 15 minutes. He exchanged $1, 000 US right there on the playa. Saved me from having to leave to go to WU. Now thats convenience. His rate at the time was $42. 80 (early February ). I spotted him about a week and half ago and asked him what his rate was then. He was giving 43 to 1 US. Not bad. And the best part is, he will come to you if you are in the local area.

[QUOTE=Mr Enternational;1541208]I said but you said they already have a father. She said,"Look, if you want to be with me my kids are part of the package. If you don't feel the same then it is best not to come or look for a woman who does not have kids." So whenever she has a new boyfriend, the kids from the previous guy(s) become the new guy's responsibility and the real father is let off the hook? Or does this only hold if the new guy is a foreigner?[/QUOTE]I think the bottom line is, enough women (not all) generally have a meter attached to their pussies. It just doesn't sit well having a man fucking them, and having a good ass time, but him not compensating them in some manner that satisfies their egos. Even if the father is taking care of his kids with her, another man enjoying her pussy but not compensating her, just doesn't sit well con / subconsciously with enough women.

It's like you are getting the benefit of enjoying an amusement park ride but not paying for it like the other patrons on the ride or those waiting their turn to pay and ride. The DR men have already provided the children. Their job is done. If she can get the foreigner to play his expected role, that foreigner can be guilted or charmed into taking on another mans responsibility in it's entirety. If successful, she has her children by DR men for heritage purposes, and then she can have her foreigner supply the "superior" financial or status benefits the DR man may not have, or the female does not feel the DR man can be relied on for.

Plus DR men may come off as resenting the DR womans focus seemingly mostly about money. Thats too much work trying to make DR women happy. Often DR men start off with good intentions ( taking care of their children ) , but may drop off, or may not be relied on for whatever reasons. Not to mention, foreign men generally come off as being more compassionate towards the dominican female. Something that stimulates interest in the DR female to seek out foreign men.

In your case, I suspect the woman is reasonably attractive. Enough so, whereas she feels confident enough that she can find another dude to be attracted to her, and willing to go through some form of her obstacle course in order to get to that pussy. Even if the benefits are short lived, the DR female usually gets by because she usually has her family and friends for support. Besides they are used to being alone. They can always get somebody to fuck them. That aint a problem. They can live like they are playing a bad football game. They may never get to the goal line, but they can play ( p4p ) just to get a "1st down" with each new guy they encounter. Each new guy is another "1st down". A woman can live like that for a lifetime. It can be with a foreigner or another unsuspecting DR man who initially thinks he just struck gold.

I forgot to add. Many DR women claim once they have children, especially more than one, many DR men avoid them like they have the plague. And that may be another reason why enough DR women seek out foreign men. They have hope that a foreigner with his superior benefits and financial standings may come to their rescue ( whether he knows it or not ) to support her children/family.

[QUOTE=Phuquer;1541254]You're leaving before the 14th? Damn. I was hoping to get a chance to chat and buy you a beer or a drink.[/QUOTE]Buying drinks is a nice gesture. Not necessary to entice me to meet for conversation, but thanks for the thought. Perhaps one day we'll both be there at the same time to have that chat?

[QUOTE=Mr Enternational;1541249]Time to start bringing cash to exchange, unless you can bear the brunt of paying $4 for every $115 (3%) that you take out plus the charges of your home bank.[/QUOTE]Exactly. Which is what I just wrote about.

[QUOTE=Wrx2005;1541333]Buying drinks is a nice gesture. Not necessary to entice me to meet for conversation, but thanks for the thought. Perhaps one day we'll both be there at the same time to have that chat?[/QUOTE]Looking forward to it. Have a safe trip.

[QUOTE=Mr Enternational;1541227]You handled that well. No matter what the amount, I would have said well I always give X for short time, but I already gave you X+500 because you sucked me so good.[/QUOTE]What you said comes off better. I thought about giving her props like that. But then I also put in a lot of work to make her come orally too. And she took just as long to come as I did. So technically I thought she had a lot of nerve to be asking me for more money after all the work I put in too. Or perhaps my jaw was pretty raw at the time, and I couldn't get the words out the way you mentioned. LOL.

[QUOTE=Wrx2005;1541338]I also put in a lot of work to make her come orally too.[/QUOTE]See its guys like you. Now I know why the girls in D'Latin are asking dudes if they eat Dominican sushi O_o

[QUOTE=Phuquer;1541336]Looking forward to it. Have a safe trip.[/QUOTE]Funny you should say that. I feel now, like I am taking a trip back to the states as if I'm going on vacation there, but I live in the DR. Not the other way around.

[QUOTE=Orgasmico;1541339]See its guys like you. Now I know why the girls in D'Latin are asking dudes if they eat Dominican sushi O_o[/QUOTE]Seriously, they are asking guys if they eat pussy? I have never been asked that by any DR woman. And no DR woman has to ask me that. Especially if she was attractive enough for me to choose her in the 1st place. She just better not be so fine that I want her ass too.

[QUOTE=Wrx2005;1541344]She just better not be so fine that I want her ass too.[/QUOTE]Damn, you giving 2 4 1 red light specials LOL. Naw, just kidding. In 10 years, I've only been asked twice about eating punanny.

[QUOTE=Mr Enternational; 1541215]As well it should be.

A mark set up for a long con is still a mark. And when you are being a WU novio that is exactly what you are. Did you meet this woman on the strip in Sosua? Did you give her money after the first time you fucked her? Are you now sending her money through electronic transfer? If you have answered yes to all of these questions then you are indeed trying to Save a Hoe.[/QUOTE]1. I would not be able to be in another person's shoes to know exactly how he feels / perceives things that started him on that road. Hence, no, I have no right to judge another person.

2, You are mixing thing up. I do not know how much of a hunk you are or how rich for that matter so perhaps girls just pay you for the pleasure of being with you. In any case, for most dudes here (including the undersigned) , there is not a chance that a 20 year old give you even a thought, let alone a look. Most would be happy to land a 40 year old and that too not without paying.perhaps in kind. So your referring to US is a non-starter. Of course, I have no knowledge of inner city and so no idea about how the school dropout scene works but, but for social security, I would imagine it would be exactly like it is in the DR.no matter what color the women have. Uneducated and lower class moms fending for their kids the only way a woman can and has done so through eternity.

In any case, without straying too far from my main point, I would imagine people who are sending money, do that to keep a romantic illusion alive and that might be a hard thing for the "worldly" ones to comprehend. Personally, who am I to tell another that his is just a fantasy, including that of exclusivity?

Had a sweet non pro who lived in San fran democurris. I ask her what she like in the bed and she said oral. At first I thought she was BS but when I went do on her she went nuts. It was and awesome experience. I am a more selective when it comes to pros. I use oil and toys but oral is optional.

[QUOTE=Orgasmico;1541349]Damn, you giving 2 4 1 red light specials LOL. Naw, just kidding. In 10 years, I've only been asked twice about eating punanny.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Manizales911;1541102]No problem Tempoecorto, it's all good and you can flame me anytime you want to, I have thick skin from being on these forums for many years.[/QUOTE]Thanks. I was making a generic point. Besides, what little I know of you, you are an honorable man.

What gets my goat is people complaining either because the girls lie about having other guys or that some guys send money. I think girls lie when walking the strip with another dude, is a reflection of what many dudes here call the females they have screwed for an hour or two: "my girl". Ha! Perhaps some of those same folks are gullible (or romantic. Depending on the point of view) enough to become SAH but again, that is none of my business.

A buddy of mine just put this up on fb:

Colombia and Costa Rica as well as the DR are not included. The #1 country, Venezuela, hasn't had a post on ISG for 5 months. What happened to Vietnam? I don't like or trust articles that don't list sources. I think you guys should fund me so I can do an unbiased and scientific study. It may require numerous trips to each country, but I'll take one for the team.
