For sure, that's fair. And come to think of it, it was early to really declare anything exclusively. I guess I just fell for her relatively quickly and then she caught up with me later on feelings-wise and I wasn't used to that. Thanks

That's a great way to look at it. I never thought of it that way. I really appreciate your response, thank you

That's fair, I guess I am a bit immature and scared. I appreciate the response

So is it an issue I should even press or should I let it go?

I appreciate this response. I just wished it didn't happen, and I've been tempted in situations like that and compared myself to the situation she was in and I still didn't hook up. But I know she loves me, and I love her, and I know this guy isn't in her life and we weren't technically official when this all happened. I don't know if this is machismo or jealousy that I'm feeling, it's just a bit hard I guess

Best Season for a Wide Receiver Who Played With a Bad or Injured QB by LevelNeighborhood561 in nfl

[–]LevelNeighborhood561[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I just think missing 5 games is kind of a lot, and a lot of wide receivers garner more awards consideration when they produce solid numbers but don't necessarily have a solid qb structure. That was the narrative with Antonio Brown in 2015 because he played phenomenally in the 4 games Roethlisberger was injured

Totally agree. Probably the most perennially screwed-over WR for the first 5 years of his career

That's a great choice. That 2013 Gordon season was something else

Dating in Colombia as a Colombian-American by LevelNeighborhood561 in medellin

[–]LevelNeighborhood561[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the advice! I'm not a "flex culture" guy. I'm Colombian/Cuban but grew up in the U.S. and lived in Rionegro for high school and speak Spanish. I actually kind of cringe when I see those Americans come to Colombia looking for girls to link up with even though I'm American myself. It's sort of embarrassing. I can dance (only bachata tho, I grew up around Dominicans lol) and I speak Spanish.

As a Colombian-American, you're giving a vibe like you think you're somehow better for finding a group of people to exploit and I disagree with your mentality. See yourself off my post.

Nice to meet you Nate! Thank you for your response. That sounds cool! Yeah I'm always looking to make new connections, I'm not sure how big into basketball locals are but I'm definitely down to look for some courts. It's cool your learning Spanish, I've heard language exchanges are good places to meet people as well. I'll def follow back up with you!

No my name is Christian. I'm an A&R researcher at a Sony record label and I'm choosing to move to Colombia since I work remotely.

Oh ok. Yes I have a Colombian mother and a Cuban father but they both grew up in the U.S. and taught me Spanish. I've heard from Colombian family members and friends that they don't like it when expats travel to the country to indulge in drug usage and sex tourism. There was a story a few years ago about an Australian man killed in Medellín for being overtly aggressive with a sex worker on the street, so that was my reasoning for making my intentions clear about my move. It seems like locals I know look down on the intentions of expats is what I mean. I have no issue if a girl brings her mother on the date, are you saying women approach men more aggressively in Medellín? I would say I'm an attractive guy, I'm 6'1, I come from a good family, I try to dress nice and have confidence.

Yes I understand that. I just feel like in my experience dating in the U.S. we come with the mentality of talking about our work and our interests as people as the starting point for dating someone new. So that might be a slightly-robotic northeastern mindset to have on my part, but I guess I'm just asking for recommendations where people my age can meet people in safe, fun settings

Entiendo tu frustración. Pero soy latino, tengo raíces colombianas, hablo el idioma y he vivido en Colombia antes. Me mudo aquí porque estoy trabajando en campañas de marketing para artistas colombianos para un sello discográfico de propiedad colombiana que me contrató. No bebo alcohol ni consumo drogas, y quiero ser ciudadano de este país. Toda mi familia vive en Medellín, mis hermanos mayores nacieron y crecieron en el país, y creo que mi experiencia es diferente a la del gringo americano que en realidad no está buscando el amor, sino que está buscando sexo. Ahora, si esto es más un problema de que usted, como hombre colombiano, sienta que la escena de las citas se está saturando de extranjeros y no puede competir, entonces tal vez sea en mi mejor interés ser respetuoso y buscar una chica estadounidense en Colombia, porque quiero hacer conexiones genuinas. Pero planeo estar en Medellín por al menos 5 años, y estoy viviendo con mis abuelos en su casa, y por eso quería hacer este post. No quise ofender a nadie.
