I arrived back in Salvador at 9 am and was at my hotel by 9:30. I called the LE lady I missed on Friday to confirm our meeting that afternoon. The phone rang again almost immediately after I hung up. It was one of the LE ladies I had previously met who wanted to see me again. The gorgeous evangelical 23 year old asked if I could meet her that afternoon. I agreed to see her in the early afternoon despite knowing that we were incompatible. She came with her sister again though she didn't participate in our conversation this time. The talk confirmed our incompatibility not only on religion but also on maturity and intellect. She was interested in foreign men almost solely because she wanted to leave Brazil. I found the reasons she gave quite frivolous. She disliked the dirty streets and poorly built or maintained houses. She wanted to live in a more visually appealing environment, which meant clean well kept houses and clean streets in good repair. Though she denied it (I challenged her on this point) it seemed clear to me that she was looking for a sugar daddy. I found the religious values she professed to have and the goals her behavior reflected very inconsistent.
I met the next LE lady at the same place we were supposed to meet on Friday, Shopping Iguatemi. The picture on the LE site portrayed her as gorgeous and sexy. She told me she had sent in 5 or 6 different pictures but LE used the only one of her in a bikini. Well, LE made the profit maximizing decision because that picture was extremely flattering and she received HUNDREDS of letters (except for mine) including gifts, candy, and MONEY!!! In person, she was less attractive to me. She had blemished skin, fake hair (extensions), and an unappealing figure (to me). She had beautiful blue-green eyes and large breasts, but no hips. Our conversation revealed that we were very incompatible. She was 27 and wanted to wait at least 5 years to start having children. She wanted at most 2, preferably in one pregnancy in the form of twins. I have a very different timetable for children. We also differed on other issues, generally having different life priorities.
Our conversation also revealed that she had become serious about one man, they spoke on the phone frequently. He is an American living in a northeast state. He is in his late 40's or early 50's and has a health condition. From her description it sounded like he had a pacemaker. I remembered what a former female LWL member said about young wives nursing invalid older husbands. So I went and opened my big mouth, stuck my size 13 feet in, and asked her opinion on that matter. Well, she gave it with tears streaming down her cheeks. She thought a lot about his health and it made her very sad to realize that she was falling in love with a man who may die of a heart attack very soon. After apologizing profusely, and talking more about superficial things, we ended our meeting. I wrote her a note thanking her for our meeting and wishing her the best of luck in her relationship. I won't be contacting her again.
That was my last meeting as I used my last day to relax.
