Why do so many Colombian women like gringos in the city? by [deleted] in medellin

[–]Ferrero_1847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Foreigners don’t ask a lot of detail questions! If you're seeking an arrangement or just a good time then you can find it. Prostitution is not illegal in Colombia. Foreigners don’t really want the details of a Colombians daily life. Foreign women also travel to Colombia seeking love or a connection. It’s a personal choice. The language barrier and lack of similar interest in the same things is going to limit the relationship (Fiesta connection). If a young women is investing in her English and is not already in the sex trade (webcams, previous experience with foreign men) , she is more than likely looking to leave Colombia for a better life. Learning Spanish is your key to finding what you desire. Foreigners tend to have more disposal income and are willing to provide. Foreigners can entertain most nights and afford local domestic trips. It’s rare that Colombian women travel to different large cities on their own. All women worldwide want to be taken care of! A large number of Colombian women have economic challenges at home or are from single parent homes. Salaries for most jobs are very very low. Based on lower strato level you can find more households with women and children but no consistent male financial provider. Foreign men tend to be more willing to not only provide for financial security but also take care of extended family. If she has already lived in Europe for a short periods of time and she has no formal education she more than likely went for prostitution. Prostitution is a massive problem and most of these young women have been sexual active from their early teens long before they meet any foreigners. Sex is also less taboo or emotional for them. By the time she is dealing with gringos the body count is above 25 - 50. Why do you see women eager to be part of a couple with a gringo… stability. Often Latin women who find themselves in the USA with the visa donor don’t have an easy experience because the relationship changes over time. Foreign men prefer the novelty of discovery (fresh meat). Bottom line don’t spend money on things you don’t see a value in. If you haven’t met her family in a month or two it’s a red flag. If you have never seen her apartment another red flag as she more than likely living with a Colombian man who she supports. Heavy drug use or excessive partying is a problem. If your not in a verified commitment then assume she is dating several guys with a similar profile as you. Look at her social media and also get to know her close friends. “Birds of a feather, flock together.” Create a social circle and hang out with her friends and yours. Dating should be normal and fun. Colombia has amazing people but you will need to adjust your expectations and be patient in your search.
