Panama downer

[pandabear]

My trip to Panama in October, was at first a sucess. I had fun and I
thought that I had a possible relationship developing. I couldn't be
more wrong. I had communicated with a lady from Panama City for about 4 months. She was nice, when we first meet and a gracious host
while I was there. She gave me the impression when I left that there
could be more in the future.

About 3 weeks after I returned to the states, she asked me for 500
dollars on the chat line, which I declined, since we weren't involved in no way. Two days later she informed me that she got the
money from her fiance, whom she had met a month before me.

Two weeks later I get an email from her telling me she was to marry
a guy she never met in 15 days. She was obvious a gold digger and not
a very nice person. I felt relieved that I didn't get involved with
her and I feel sorry for the guy she married.

Moral to my story, be very cautious when you travel south and don't
let a pretty face change your judgement. I was lucky in that reguard,
although it still hurt some. Use common sence and think out each step. I think that I am all done with Central and South American
woman, they can be just as mean and untruful as US woman. If you are
involved with a lady, a definate RED FLAG is when they start asking
for money. Even if you a commitment from a lady, use caution before
sending money to them.

This is my story from Panama, sad but true.

This sort of bizarre behavior sounds like a woman I was dealing with in Panama last year who caused an uproar here in PL when she posted a message attacking me.

I wonder if it is the same woman.  Does this woman speak English and French?  Does she play classical piano?

Hamlet, I don't know if she played classic piano, but she does speak English and French. She also told me she was banned from posting messages. I call her the devil lady,
she sure acts like the real deal, devil that is.

Pandabear,

Is her name Marie?  

You said she was banned from posting messages.  Did you mean here on PL?

If so, I was writing to this chick about two years ago, and I quickly ascertained that she was nuts.  She went online here attacking me and telling the board that I agreed to marry her and then I was cheating on her with some Colombianas which assertions were both false.  The ensuing thread, in which it became quickly apparent from her responses that she was crazy, was a hoot but Patrick eventually erased it.

During this debacle, she declared that she did not need me anymore because she met a rich Jewish man at a TLC party the night before and agreed to marry him.

I did some research and found out that this chick had been advertising herself in TLC for ten years.  Once she sent me an unsolicited nude photo.  I hope you got to check out those goods.

Hamlet, I think one in the same, her name was Maria and about two years ago she did marry a guy she met at TLC party. It didn't last very long. She wrote so very hurtful and mean emails to me. I was unfortunately a gentleman to her, man was I a fool. I completely misjudged her, although
I have to agree with you, she is certifably crazy. She told me the day before Thanksgiving that she was marring a guy she never meet. I consider myself lucky. Thanks for sharing your experience with me.

Pandabear,

I am bored here in Nicaragua and I want to f--- with her.  Can you give me her email address?

Hamlet, her email adress is now not in service. If she got
married she must have changed it. Sorry I can't help you.

Pandabear,

Well I guess I am better off not starting anything with her.  She changed her email address on me several times.  Once after she sent me a nasty message she blocked my responses.

She will become legend on PL.

Whoa there!!

Despite my post below there are loads of sweet women down here - I have some on my site - I KNOW they are sweet as I know them very well. I don't know if there are more sweet women here or less than in the USA or elsewhere, at a guess I'd say a higher number - percentage wise.
But, consumerism and materialism are taking over the World,
imo, and that's gotta be bad news as far as finding 'sweet' women.
 I know loads of guys on this site will disagree with me - but I'd have to say that on blance you're less likely to find a sweet women in Cali ( too many players) than in the Colombian countryside. As nobody is likely to go to the countryside, I'd say next best bet is away from the big cities in safer countries. And then get to know them VERY well. You were doing the right thing getting to know your women - and it paid dividends. She saved you from making a bad mistake. Of course its expensive to go down to LA and then find yourself back at square 1 - so try to get to know a number of women in your 3 week stay. That doesn't mean hopping in the sack with every women.
 You may have to spend $10,000 over 5 or 6 trips to find the women who is your soulmate - but marrying the wrong one would probably cost you more in a later divorce - so take your time and stick at it.

Pandabear,

good post and sorry to hear about your bad luck but,....

Why stop visiting this area of the world where there is so much too enjoy from the people, culture, and weather??  There are plenty of good times to be had down there but maybe just reset your expectations a bit.  Hang out and party and enjoy life!!! If you meet the right person you will know it, and if you don't you can still enjoy meeting the beautiful women and hanging out on a tropical beach somewhere!!! Sounds like you can see through alot of BS so you are probably doing better then alot of other gringos....
