Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=PepolesBuddy;2732362]Living here is a whole different game then vacation . . . take time to get to know the girls you're fucking, invest in them emotionally / mentally / and obviously money. If you're able to connect with them at a emotional intelligent level. They will show you perspectives of medallo that even the richest person in the world will never get to experience. These girls showing me their families, inviting me to outings etc. Is something that money can't buy and google can't find.[/QUOTE]Well said. I have also received inspiration from the Asian King of Medallo (not sure what that means, jaja). The standards are different when you have your "harem" of long-term steadies who you trust and have built relationships. Once a chica trusts you and feels safe around you, the experiences are truly loving and special. Good for you. You sound happy and that's who I am usually going to notice when it comes to modeling behaviors.

[QUOTE=LoveItHere69;2732399]You are listing the exception not the rule. Most girls with boobs jobs are average at best. SO many girls like you to look and feel their boobs, but just a little. Most do not like you to really feel or suck on them like their tits should be admired from a distance.[/QUOTE]Sounds like personal bias from too small a sample size, to me. Just guessing but that's what it sounds like.

I have a large, statistically significant sample size and I would have to report nearly opposite results. Perhaps there are other reasons for this discrepancy but I can't think of one off the top of my head.

Like I posted before, boob jobs, a very polarizing topic.

Some fucker just tried to rob me.

I decided to check out Plaza Minorista around lunch time. Followed Avenida de Greiff. Starting from Plazuela Franciso Antonio Zea the area gets rough, full of trash, and lots of homeless people, some even camping in tents, all like that right up until the roundabout next to Plaza Minorista.

I didn't want to walk back the same way so went looking for a safer route. I knew the general direction towards which I should be going and just followed the crowd from Plaza Minorista, bunch of home supplies shops around, tiles, chairs etc. Relatively clean and no homeless. About two blocks from Plaza Botero a guy started walking next to me and struck up a conversation. Where am I from etc. He started in Spanish then switched to botched English. We exchanged couple friendly words, names, handshake, he said "Welcome to Colombia" and split to the right. I continue walking.

There was a short and empty street. I noticed the guy is back walking alongside me, he waved and came close. He put his arm around my neck to give me friendly 'hug', more like a strong squeeze. I jiggled out of it and continued walking. He asked for money with no so friendly look now. OK so it's like that then, I better get the fuck out of this situation ASAP. I stalled to buy some time and eventually gave him some 2's I keep loose in my pocket and picked up my pace, hoping he'll piss off. He wasn't satisfied. He started pointing to a wallet in my pocket. I decidedly said no. He tried to take off my backpack, but I didn't allow him, pushing his hands back on couple attempts. Some random guy carrying big black trash bag walked nearby curiously observing the scene, he didn't look homeless just like a local (the would be robber too BTW, he wasn't wearing rugs just normal clothes and a cap).

We are out the quiet street now. I stopped in front of one of the hardware shops with the shopkeeper moving his stuff around. We were standing there three of us, the robber then wanted to use my phone 'for a minute'. I repeatedly said 'no' with 'no fucking way, period' attitude and we were just staring at each other. He tied to pull it out form my pocket. Again, I pushed off his attempts.

After a while he went couple meters forward and waited with the guy which was carrying a trash bag. Then they disappeared somewhere but I knew they are waiting. The shopkeeper shrugged his shoulders and went back to doing his stuff. I noticed another shop in the opposite direction and darted that way. Surely, the guy was soon next to me. I stopped next to the shopkeeper and a customer, again said 'no' to the guy and waved for him to go the fuck away. He walked away and I lost sight of him.

I was getting closer to the crowds, halfway between Carrera 53 and 52 on Avenida de Greiff I noticed him again on the other side of the street, walking parallel and looking at me. He then started his attempt to cross the street to cut me off and I decide to cross as well to avoid that and join the crowds on the other side. We meet on a little concrete patch in the middle of the Avenida de Greiff and he attempts again to pull out my phone and I push him back. I run across the street just before the traffic starts to move, so he's cut off now.

Finally he catches up with me on the crosswalk between the corner of Carrera 52 and Plaza Botero but gives up another attempt. We exchange not so friendly looks as he walks north on Carrera 52 and blends with the crowd. Taxi driver standing next to his car points at him and asks me what's going on. Not sure how to explain it, I just say 'Celural. Puta. ', seemed he understood. I'm in no mood for play so move thought the crowds to Parque Berrio station and catch a metro back home.

Fuck. If he had a knife or decide to hit me in the face I'd be probably done for, since he was stronger than me. Clearly he wasn't prepared or too sure of himself but saw an opportunity. I don't dress fancy; sneakers, blue jeans, simple t-shirt and no jewellery nor a watch, but there is no mistaking me for a local either.

Why wouldn't you immediately call an Uber or flag down a cab the first time you stopped at the shop?

Its shocking that he kept coming back even when you tried to blend into the crowd multiple times.

[QUOTE=Tasss;2732187]I have a set of mental filters to try to eliminate fat or unfriendly girls.

- Fake tits, not only do I dislike fake tits, it's a sure sign that the girl has been around and / or has / had sponsors. Expect a mediocre experience at best.

- No face pics, with the quantity of FB chicas in MDE, why deal with the uncertainty of what she looks like.

- No body pics, only face pics, likely fat.

- No recent pictures, no story posts, possibly using old pics and have gained weight.

- If you don't like fat chicks, look for thick upper arms in the photos. This a tip from a girl. Photo filters can make a face look skinny but usually leave the arms alone.

- Pics of trips to countries abroad (usually Mexico, Dubai, parts of Asia), been around money before. Also home-bound mongers in those countries spoil them with $, may still be sponsoring them while the girls are back in Colombia.[/QUOTE]Finally some informative post after pages of BS regarding baggage scanning and iPhones. I can add a few more points to your list. If a chica in question has very few pictures, I always politely ask for more pics or a social media account, preferably Instagram. If she sends me an additional selfie or two, and no full body pics, or no Insta, I wish her all the best and end the conversation. Happened to me sooo many times. She has a few selfies on SA or FB, I ask for more pics, she sends me more selfies which are almost the same as the ones she posted (wtf? Good point about upper arms, also look for thick waist. I also avoid chicas with blurry or low quality photos. I understand they have shitty phones, but this is not my problem, if she sells pussy online or wants to date / find a SD, she has to have good clear pics, period. Pics of trips to countries abroad. This could be a good or a bad thing. Good thing is that she would have plenty of pics of high quality, and some stories and videos, so her looks may be assessed correctly. Bad thing is that she might be spoiled and not interested in meeting. Some guys would not even give it a try, thinking, oh, she is probably high maintenance or her rates are too high. Or thinking she is too hot for them. I don't give a shit, I message all the hot girls I can find, and see what happens. Because I have nothing to lose. In most cases, they don't even respond, or indeed, ask for too much money, but I was lucky enough to meet a few whose rates were reasonable despite the image of a "luxury, high maintenance girl", so there is always a chance of hitting a jackpot, but you got to try.

Video chat with no filters or move on is my advice. It's so time consuming to wait around and then find out the girl is underwhelming.

I know guys (gringos) that have had knives pulled on them in the middle of the day while walking along the glass covered walk way by the Veracruz Church.

And a lot of the Colombians / Venezuelans, both men and women in Centro carry knives to protect themselves.

Sorry to hear about what happened, at least you didn't get robbed, let alone sliced up.

You can never let your guard down anywhere in Colombia.

It's good that you posted about what happened to you, as it's a reminder of how easy it is to get jacked up in Colombia.

Or they are just completely leaving the country and making more money than they would ever get in Colombia regardless of the city. The pandemic and the ability to make money over the internet without ever having meet the guys face to face has changed the game some too.

I know this area you are talking about between like Prado and Minorista. Lots of homeless people and drug addicts and like zero police presence. There's a place where homeless people can go to shower its called servicios basicos DIA #2 or some shit like that. Lots of drugs and drug addicts in this area they smoke a drug called bazuko which is similar to crack. I've been thru there once but I had a vennie with me. Although I never had anyone try to mess with me like what you're describing, I did feel alot of bad vibes there.

I would not recommend walking through there alone. Probably not even with locals, there's nothing over there anyways unless if you wanted to buy drugs which I wouldn't recommend either.

No need to even say Hello, to random dudes that approach you. The only thing they could possibly want is money. Just give them a look like leave me the fuck alone and keep walking.
