... in response to Re: A B C's of selling contact info on i..., posted by Gorm on Nov 16, 2005The girls say that they are interested in meeting guys from another culture, but they do not take enough initiative. You would think the girls would take the initiate and meet a guy half way but the majority don't. Even if they "choose you" it will interesting to see if they maintan their half of a budding relationship.
For example this morning I got an e-mail from a girl who lives 30 minutes away from me in Cali and to whom I had last sent an e-mail on 27 Oct, over two weeks ago. She finally responded this morning with an e-mail that failed to address anything I said in my last e-mail to her and by saying "what happened to you, how come you don't write or call?" I let her have it and reminded her that after more than two weeks her only response was to tell me that I don't pay her enough attention - i.e. entertain me.... She can take her crappy attitude and her twisted plea for attention and throw it in the same virtual toilet where I tossed her e-mail address and phone number. She is part of the 90% I weed out. I will focus my resources on women that are interested in me (a guy with my profile) and don't have mental problems, emotional disorders or other significant issues..... It is the same with my male frienships, I know hundreds or thousands of guys but I only maintain a close ongoing friendship type relationships with a handfull of male friends with whom I click....
Any guy can make a relationship work for a time if he really wants it, but if the other person is not truly compatible the relationship will take an ever increasing toll over time. I speak from experience, I married my first girlfriend at a young age and after 7 pleasant years and 5 unpleasant years it mercifully ended. She is a nice person, very attractive, we had common interests, there was chemistry, but we were NOT compatible. Now, older and wiser, I have choosen to go beyond just the attraction and common interests phases... but the majority of single guys that I meet in latin america are making the same mistake I made 20 years ago. How many guys are visiting a foreign country where they don't speak the language or understand the culture and after a week and after meeting 2 dozen girls they settle for a pretty face, bumps in all the right places and nice company.... Any girl, even bad girls, can put on a good show for a week.... So IMHO most of the guys that fall into the profile I described above are entering into disapointing relationships and are just as out of touch as most of the ladies.
I am not dissatisfied, I just report stuff the way I see it. For example, with an internet connection and for less than $20, the price of two drinks in a singels bar in the good old USA, I am in contact with a handful (about 5 weeded down from 200) of really, really good candidates for a serioius partner. As an added bonus I have made about 2 dozen amistades.... Your chances ARE better for hooking up in Latin America.... However the streets in Latin America are not lined with golden eager p*ssy like most agencies like to portray and only about 5% or 10% of the agencies avoid all types of unethical behavior.... hopefully your agency will be in that 10%.
I have never met Jamie of International Introductions in Baranquilla but from what I have observed he has most if not all angles of the agency business figured out pretty well. You might be able to pick up some concepts from his web page http://www.latin-wife.com/ , by doing a search on his posts here on Planet-Love, by contacting him, or even visiting his agency and paying his fee. Even though he or some other agency might run a tight ship, the girls in his city, in your city, in my city fall basically into the same or similar statistical patterns. And it IS a numbers game........
