Fantastic tips for befriending on Facebook
Mojo Bandit,
Thank you for being so helpful and detailing so many steps in your post. I did understand that this requires time but now I am more clearer that this can not be achieved in 2-3 weeks.
Yes, price point seemed to have moved up to 250+taxi. However what surprised me was the general lack of response. I will start slowly again.
You are really a FB pro Amigo.
[QUOTE=MojoBandit;2702592]First thing: I have had seasoned mongers writing me lately telling me that 200 k is not enough right now. Chicas are all asking for more. My advice is to get into negotiaition with them but it sounds like you are first going to have to get their attention.
Second: I would not advise you to upload a "Brad Pitt" pic. FB could very well flag your account and shut it down. If anything consider putting on sunglasses and and hat and taking a selfie to use as your profile pic.
Third: Speaking for myself only I usually do not start off talking to these chicas in an "all business" way. I do start off saying that I frequent Medellin and then a general timeframe for when I am coming there but I start off with some kind of small talk first, maybe some flirting but I get down to business when I start moving toward setting up a cita. So you are going to then have to lob the ball to them to see what's up. Say something more like "the last chica I was with wanted 200 k plus taxi, how much do you charge?" then you can see what they are willing to negotiate down to.[/QUOTE]
How much is your time worth?
[QUOTE=Oterri;2702542]I agree. Casas are the simplest solution. No need to prepare for hours.
[/QUOTE]It all boils down to "How much is your time worth"? If you have no job and can spend hours each night on FB, then your time is worth very little and you make accomplish a lot. If your time is worth a lot, your highest and best use is to visit a casa, get laid, then party with your friends.
Same thing about travelling by air. How much are you saving by booking a connecting instead of a direct flight? You will spend 3 or more hours in an airport, waiting for a connection, it probably is not worth $100, and more likely your luggage will get lost.
