Mike,
I think our Colombianas,like AW,have a certain attraction to bad boys,but the Colombiana probably has alot more experience with them.Better to get her after she has already been screwed over by one or more bad boys.They won't look so appealing anymore.Actually I think the ones we meet come to the opinion of getting a gringo might be their only shot at a guy that is at all responsble."Irreessponsebilee" they say about their Colombian boy friend.With a capital I.Total f--king jerk to usually.
So hopefully she is over that,but watch out,some still are involved with these guys while trying to land a gringo,like Calipro's last ex wife.I don't know what he did with the guy but it sounded pretty sinister.Better to assure yourself they are not still in one of these realtionships.Sometimes they can go on for years,with the Colombiana playing several girls at the same time.Be carefull he doesn't still have her heart,if not her better judgement.
One of my wifes friends had a baby by a Colombiano,who totally flaked out on her.She was adament she never wanted another Colombiano.She met a good guy gringo and they are very happy living in the US.
Now there are good guy Colombianos.One of my brother in laws sure seems like one.But there are not enough of them to go around.Most young Colombianos who are not already married would rather live with mama and be an irresponsible play boy.The father of my step son fits that catagory.40 or so and still living with mama.Probably will untill she dies,at which time he just might grow up a little.But hey,if we had alot better opportunities for  just playing around we might not want to get married either,especially if it means a very difficult life.

Pete,
I'm not proud to say this, but a few of the women (both AW and LW) in my past who I probably treated the worst were the ones who pursued me and had the strongest feelings towards me.  Conversely, I got crapped on by some of the ones I treated best.  Is there a lesson in this? - not sure, except that a man shouldn't be "too nice" IMO!  It's a guaranty to be taken advantage of by certain women, and isn't much appreciated by the others.  "Too nice" is the equivalent of "boring" to all too many women - they end up leaving for a dangerous and arrogant a-hole who can break their heart and make their blood rush.

Along the lines of what you posted above about women who are still into the old boyfriend:  I met a stunningly gorgeous 34 year old Colombian woman here in NJ a couple of weeks back.  Has lived here 5 years, looks 10 years under her age, sweet as can be.  Except she's been involved with a rich married guy for most of the past 5 years - and probably will continue to be for next 5.  Cried on my shoulder for an hour - the guy just won't leave his wife (go figure!).  She's decided she wants a husband now, and probably will find one with ease.  Poor guy who marries her.  As dysfunctional as any woman you could hope to meet.

Seems that there are many Colombian and Brazilian women who are adamant that they do not want men from their own countries.  Most, I suppose, are women with bad relationship histories (and I find it hard to believe that it's only & always the man's fault as per agency legend).  Hope to find one who doesn't carry too much baggage from her past and can appreciate a decent man.

JerseyMike,
 Bingo!! You hit the nail on the head "she was involved with the super rich guy".  I am a working professional and own property but, far from "super rich".   This is a common story: beautiful woman with a "super rich guy" that treats her horribly.  How many times have you heard this (with AW or the world)?  When the beautiful Colombian woman tells the story of "cheatin husband" or "cheatin boyfriend" you can bet this guy has a good income with a fair amount of prestige(yes, there are good incomes in Colombia). I promise you he ain't the janitor.
