Anyone here dating or writing a Mexican lady?

[Frank O]

I recently returned from a trip to Ukraine, talk about GORGEOUS Ladies in the very sense of the word ladies. However they simply do NOT have the same "heat" Latinas have. I'm half Latino so I guess their "cold" nature sort of puzzled me. Anyways I currently am seeing a VERY attractive 19 year old Mexican girl from Monterrey who is now living here in the US. She is very nice & honestly I never thought about having a relationship with her however things are going VERY good between us & I'm thinking about getting serious with her QUICK if things don't work out with my Ukrainian lady. I seem to here a lot about Colomibans & Brazilians but VERY little about Mexicans. IS there a reason for this? Just VERY curious.

I think Mexican women are much less likely to join a marriage agency than are Colombian women.  It definitely shows in the response rate to our advertisments running in Mexico and Colombia.  Since most guys on this board use agencies, most of them are going to go where they find the best selection of women in agencies, so they go to Colombia.

I don't think agencies in Mexico can find enough attractive women to join to get the gringos comming in large numbers.  Some guys take a look at the agency women in Mexico versus Colombia and say that Colombian women are more attractive, but I think that's mostly due to the fact that marriage agencies can't be as selective in Mexico as they can be in Colombia.  There's just not enough women interested in joining them, so they end up with less physically attractive women on average.

I totally agree with you.  I think the agency scene is much more accepted in Colombia.  In Mexico the this can be viewed pretty bad by a lot of people.  Many a gringo has crossed the border with a lot of promises that he had no intention of keeping in Mexico.  This has happened for so long that some Mexican girls don't want to be seen in public alone with a gringo.  If she don't mind there is still her father or one of her 12 brothers to deal with.  Mexico is much more conservative than Colombia.  Go into the interior of Mexico and the beauty of a Mexican woman will rival that of a Calena any day.  On March 29 I will be marrying a girl in Cali, but I would recommend a guy try Mexico if he is interested.  It is not difficult, but it is different than using an agency.  It will take a little more time probably also.  I met a couple of very beautiful girls on video chat programs online.  One girl lived in Mexico City and was great but smoked (as do most Mexican girls).  The other girl lived in Mazatlan and was so jealous that I was afraid to go out in public with her.  If you go to Mexico looking it is better to make your intentions known.  Don't say I am looking for a girlfriend.  Say I am looking for a woman to build a relationship with that will hopefully lead to marriage.  If you know a Mexican here in the states then tell them what you are looking for.  You will be surprised how quickly you will form a network of people helping you.  I know a lot of gringo/mexicana couples here and that is basically how they met.  My first trip to Cali was to visit a girl I met on a plane.  While there I found her to be a liar.  While in the bank exchanging dollars for pesos I met a girl who after talking to her for an hour at lunch, I knew I wanted to marry her.  That was over a year ago and in a few more weeks I will be doing that.

Really? You found most Mexican girls smoked? I have found just the opposite in my travels to Mexico. Many men but few women. I also haven't encountered many Mexican girls not wanting to be seen in public with gringos - in fact in many many of the Gringo/Mexicana couples I've known, the woman is rather proud of her catch. Your ideas about networking are excellent and I'd wager are probably the most effective way to meet sincere people - ones that wouldn't ever join an agency. The Asian board did a little survey a while back and 50% of the couples met by being introduced by friends, 25% by meeting accidentally in the woman's country and only 25% through advertising/agency/internet means. Just some thoughts.

I was rather amazed at the number of girls smoking.  This only applies to the cities.  The smaller towns are much more traditional I think.  In the cities it seems every girl smokes.  I would visit Monterrey, Mexico City, and Mazatlan the most.  In these three citites many more girls smoke than don't.  As for the girls being seen with a gringo I agree with you when it is a relationship that developed and grew.  What I am talking about is a gringo going to Mexico cold turkey, meeting a girl in the mall or somewhere and then her being seen in public by friends and family.  It seemed to me that most girls I knew needed a little time to mention the gringos name a few times around the home instead of saying oh we met yesterday.  I have found that most girls (regardless of age) is not only in subjection to their father but also their brothers, uncles, etc.  

I will also say that if any guys want to have a great weekend in a beautiful and safe city, go to Queretero, Queretero.  It is a couple hours north of Mexico City.  The nights are cool to cold.  It is a nice drive down a toll road all the way should you want to drive.  The downtown has a center or square that is nothing but little bars and restaruants.  At night you will think you are sitting at the mall in Cali with the number of beautiful girls you will see here.  It is not a place for a guy looking for a girl many years younger than he is, but they are among the most beautiful girls I have ever seen anywhere.

Agreed, Queretero is a great city. I get there a couple times per year and will be there again next month. It reminds me much more of Europe than most of the rest of Mexico with the sidewalk cafes, impeccably clean streets, carefully groomed parks, and old fashioned but elegant architecture. I've flown in on the commuter airline, rented a car in Guadalajara and driven the four or five hours through Jalisco and Guanajuato, and also taken the bus from DF. I kind of liked the drive the best. The autopistos are as nice as most roads in the US. Guadalajara also has some great night spots, beautiful women and fun times. The hospitality of Mexico is sure some of the best.
