Posts: 51The way I've heard this explained is that you're just making her more attractive to find a guy that's richer / better looking or just higher status than you. I'd NEVER sink that much money into any woman, let alone a woman who is clearly p4 p.

Posts: 35I've had no issues at the Haven hotel. The penthouse is for 8 guests but I don't see an issue having the ninth if the come separately but you may have a 100 k fee as that goes over the free guest count (number of rooms x 2).

Posts: 4347You lost me until you mentioned the language barrier. I thought you were writing about Colombians based on living here long term. It made no sense and then I realized you were making an observation about foreigners. That observation more than makes sense, it is dead obvious even allowing our group's strong disinclination toward marriage in general. Colombians and other latinos are in fact socially conservative, family oriented and favor long term primary relationships. This of course excludes the subculture of urban prepagos and their dodgy social circles that we rub elbows with. You definitely don't want to marry into any of that. Keep in mind we frequent a subculture. It's very different from the Colombians I worked with who know only enough about them to avoid them like the plague. For example, years ago Parque Lleras was a place to take the family for Sunday night dinner. You all know the rest.

Posts: 60Long term relationships
Well stated and succinct. Between the nature of this forum and the dynamic of MDE, it comes as NO surprise you get a lot of negative responses to it here.

Posts: 60AirBnb
AirBnb in the countryside if you can get outside the city, especially if it is for a weekend. As you probably know, Colombians often vacation with the whole family, so there are a LOT of options at all sorts of price levels and features. Finding anything like that in the city is difficult, as you have already found out.

Posts: 625I had that happen with a hoe I picked up in town. She gave me a blow job in the car, while grabbing my wallet when my pants were down. So clever I did not notice her slick hands were working on my wallet. She made off with a couple hundred $$.

Posts: 625Colombian Life Partners? Yeah, sure. Like a needle in a haystack!
No. Your search is a fantasy. Like finding the fountain of youth or Holy Grail. Or a unicorn under a rainbow.

Second one from Cali poked me in the eye with her fingers and I got rid of her, now on FB I see she is in Texas with some other husband who probably likes to be attacked.
In the 1990's there were alot of matrimonial agencies, so the girls could get away from the FARC, I went to several in Cali and Medellin. Only women from the agencies were opportunists, probably I was also. If you can find a cute retard you might have a chance.

Posts: 1887It happens in other cities. I'm aware of two recent incidents in Cali. But it's more common in MDE because an awful lot of foreigners (many of whom are really naive) go to MDE these days.

A girl in Thailand showed me the ghb (date raape) that they use. It was a green liquid. She said you have to be careful to only put a little or you will kill the person. It seems the difference is that the thieves in Medellin do not care whether they kill the person or not.

Posts: 18162Maybe it is a thing like you see people with covers on their luggage. They want a protector for the thing that is protecting their belongings. In his case he wants somewhere to keep the money that his pocket is going to keep. Only keeping it directly in the pocket is not good enough. Got to have that bulge to make it easier on the thieves.

Posts: 43Having lived in Colombia for many many years, I can tell you very few men find their wives in Colombia not just because of the language barrier but because of the cultural barrier. I've seen tons of men with the same idea to find a wife in Colombia only to leave only to leave a year later in complete distress. I would say that Colombia especially Medellin is probably the worst place to find a wife. They might find a girl out and about and think that she's a good girl only to get robbed after the 4th date or to find out that she's sleeping with other gringos on the side or she has a Colombian boyfriend (which she prefers above all). Out of all the Latin American countries I've been to Colombians, especially Paisas are the biggest liars I've ever met. And it's due to the legacy of Pablo Escobar. Even decades after his death, he's left a deep cultural imprint of criminality. The locals call it "cultura traqueta." Women here, although many have been taken on to more lavish trips by the age of 22 than you will ever go to, have never lived in another country. They don't know that cheating on their boyfriend is as bad as it is because it's so normalized in their culture. I've slept with so many Colombian women that have boyfriends who they really loved and they didn't feel guilty.

Most Paisas don't want to leave the country, don't want to be your husband because marriage isn't even a strong institution in the culture and they don't want to be married to a foreigner unless they're 35+ and they've had a lot of financial hardship in their life. They just want your money and they want to party in Medellin. They will lie, cheat, and steal in order to do that.

Posts: 6419I see the issue of finding a life partner in Colombia as an individual thing. What applies to one gent will not necessarily apply to another. Nevertheless, my experience in Colombia is that there are many options among non pros but you need to be able to speak Spanish.

Posts: 18162It is only slim if you are looking amongst hookers. I have found many life partners in Colombia, but I am not the settling down type.

Posts: 7Trying to find a place for 9 people.
I won't get into too many details and just get straight to the point. So what started as just me and my girlfriend has now expanded into my girlfriend and some of her friends and her sisters friends and now I'm up to about 9 people and we all need a place to meet for a group session. I'm having a very difficult time finding a place for this encounter to occur. My girlfriends apartment is too small for such a thing to occur so it would need to be elsewhere. Does anyone have any good ideas here? I'm stuck. I don't see a hotel that would allow so many visitors.
