It is a double edged sword

[Fuzzyone]

Stop being so sensitive.  I did not call YOU a looser.  Innerposter, and others agree with the characterization without insult. This opinion is relevant to those trying to get a handle on things.  It may turn out that they agree with this assessment with there own experience - or not.I think we ought be more pragmatic.  There ought to be less "sacred cows"

  So let me get this right

1  you worked for a congressmen but job did not last he must have been voted out of office.

2 you worked in the stock market I bet it was lehman brothers right? that job did not last either, wife left you because you could not make the money you did right?

3 you started your own whore houses with some other guy that crashed and burned.

4 Now you bum around Colombia so you don't fell like a failure?

  Now I call that one less scared cow! Did I miss anything Hugh?

that is sounds like complete BS that I would suggest that a 45 - 60 year old man that kept physically fit, with current fashion, and socially capable, would feel 10 years younger in Colombia.  THAT IS ALL.

You never said it like that till recently, and I have REPEATDLY said anybody can FEEL anyway they want it does not make it so. What more do you want from the issue…

Point well made.  My observation that the "majority of wife-hunters" were X, Y, and Z was a product of real experience.  Guys proposing to women in less than 72 hours.  Guys flaunting money for the sake of attraction.  Guys looking for a possible life mate as a child would enter an Easter egg hunt.   Candid conversation with amigas who were staff members and translators (many of whom wanted NOTHING to do with any Ameridcano because of their personal observations too!)  That being said: there are some good girls online and in agencies for sure.  There are also good guys - but it is the minority.

Everything you say, can be true for not just wife-hunters but all gringos, what exactly are you trying to say? Come on out with it don’t be shy…

The role of the man is higher in Colombia than here.  I conclude that is due to security and resources.

I will agree with you, for the reasons I already stated before.
