Cartagena is bad vibes so far

Wow, it loks like you spent a fair amount of time on this. And that you were in Cartagena a while. I take it you liked it?
I'm wondering how this city compares to Medelin for this hobby. So far, I haven't been impresed with Cartagena. It seems overun with backpackers and super agresive touts (I'm not a bad speler. Keyboard is mesed up, from this humidity I think.)
Last night, a couple of guys tried to get me to go to a strip club, and actualy folowed me through the streets at some point, reapearing an hour later: "Remember us?" Not the experience you want your first night in Colombia.
Just right now, this guy cursed me out be / see I didn't want to hear his pitch. We exchanged profanities in English and I walked away.
Now I know I shouldn't let a few bad aples spoil the bunch. But in my experience, this is what hapens when there's s too damn any tourists. Is Medelin a beter experience, in terms of interacting with the local populace and for the chicas as wel? There's ben so much street crap and I haven't even goten to the chicas.
