Colombian men and Gringas

Do Colombian do well with Gringas? They probably are very good at romancing and sweet talking American women, being such they learn to be "carinosa" at a young age.
I was surprised when I first went to Colombia, I did not see many guapo looking hombres, but I guess Colombian woman do not care, but I wonder how the Colombianos do in the US., or they long to return to Colombia.

Also, I would suspect a gringa in Colombia, would have all these Colombian men chasing after her, so they can get to the US.

American women don't care about sweet talk and romance. They will just laugh at you and think you are a loser.

The amazing Morphus speaks yet again!!! "I have my doubts that many gringas are attracted to short, dark, broke guys that don't speak their language."

Morphus' wonderfully frank thoughts on the nature of Colombian men.

I seem to remember you not ever thinking about marrying a Colombian girl if she was not a virgin. Why are Colombian girls the moral exception, are they inferior or slutty?

Anyway Morphus, you're an odd fellow, you seem to have something against Colombians, at the very least you seem to be very disingenuous about them. Questions must be asked as to what you are doing on this site!

Those are'nt my words. Expatriate wrote that. Although it does make sense. Americanas tend to be ho's when they are on vacation but when they are looking for husband, they want someone they can communicate with.

"I seem to remember you not ever thinking about marrying a Colombian girl if she was not a virgin. Why are Colombian girls the moral exception, are they inferior or slutty"

I would'nt marry an American woman unless she is a virgin either. Not that all Colombian girls are slutty but there would have to be some real love for the gringo if the Colombiana to gave him her virginity. Even the most mercenary Colombiana looking to scam a gringo most likely would'nt do that. For me, not only would the Colombiana have to be a virgin, but also from a middle class or rich family. Then when I bring her to the U.S. I will only give her $4 a day for lunch until she finds a job. Then we will split all living expenses down the middle. Thats real love.

"Questions must be asked as to what you are doing on this site!"

I'm a seasoned Colombia traveller. I think my input has to worth something.

Virgins will be hard to find I seem to remember you not ever thinking about marrying a Colombian girl if she was not a virgin.

Well, the odds are that you won't find a Virgin over 18. The news stated that 60% of the school girls between the ages 12 and 15 are pregant.

That tells me poverty isn't going away soon and finding a virgin, at least one going to public school will be difficult. Maybe impossible unless one would consider "MAKING AN UGLY WOMAN YOUR WIFE". (for the rest of your life).

I still wonder about school kids aged 16 to 18 ? What's the deal ? Who knows, that's the problem with T.V. news, it can sometimes leave you wondering.

I had lofty goals, same as Morphus.

I wanted a woman with BIG BOOBS and was willing to work hard to meet that goal. Not just any big boobed broad,, a really nice pair, no silicone and THAT REQUIRED a nice car and the appearance of having money. My goals were fulfilled at about age 23. Since then I've been goal-less, bouncing around like a pachinko machine ball not knowing where I'll end up.

PS: See what happens when you're young and impressionable ?

I met 5 virgin girls in Colombia that were either 18 or older. The oldest virgin was 24.

Poco At least you have a shot in Colombia. Virgin gringas are even harder to find. I tried meeting a 19 year old gringa on the internet. She thinks 35 is too old. This is what she wrote:

"nope, trust me your wasting your time
older guys are gross and certainly aren't a turn on
no offense
just walk away and think I'm an immature little girl
bye"

She's not even that good looking. Heres her pic:

I think looks matter less to women than to men. I would guess that morphus has met quite a few "born again virgins". Colombians I've met in Canada are generally good dancers, sociable and fun-loving. They do okay with Canadian gringas.

jay1234 says on Feb 7, 2007, 18:37:

Just a question... How do you know they are virgins? My guess is they told you. I am thinking that it may be possible that they could be lying. Same question when looking for that virgin bride. I would consider the possibility that a woman could lie about this. Especially if she thinks it's a dealbreaker.

manu1999 says on Feb 7, 2007, 18:52:

but morphus, surely don't reject the notion of true and pure love with someone who has had a relationship in the past (and therefore sex)?

I agree that virgin values are something special , but even you admit they are rare, surely you can look past virginity when it comes to true love, with whichever nationality, colombians aside?

manu1999 says on Feb 7, 2007, 18:55:

and before anyone points out the hypocricy, i'll point it out, that it's hypocritical for me (and anyone else for that matter similar to me in this respect) to glorify virginity as a wonderful value that people should have, especially when I don't ever expect myself realistically to act that way ;)

Monita Linda says on Feb 7, 2007, 23:35:

As usual this thread went off-topic in useless talking of older guys about younger girls.

Well.. from my own experience I can say a Colombian can do very well with an extranjera girl (I am not from the States, so no gringa :P).
We have been together for almost 3 years, we'll get married this summer.
I'm his first girl and he's my first guy, even though he is a bit older than me (he is almost 24 and I'm 20). He speaks English fluently and is well educated.
He is really great with me and very loyal.
Soon will be moving back to Colombia to live with him, study and build up our life together IN Colombia.

My gym in London used to offer salsa classes. The instructor came from Bogota and looked like a hobbit- and a perpetually miserable hobbit at that. But his buff blonde English girlfriend was a peach.

INCHES Gringas like inches and Colombian men are not popular for that,
also Colombia has a lot of beautifull woman but the men are not that good looking, like for example ARGENTINOs. But then love is everywhere, even in the space shuttle.

Not sure I understand this thread. Both Colombian women and men are exceptionally good looking. They are a handsome people. Of course you can find "ugly" men just like every where.

Portena says on Feb 9, 2007, 19:46:

ARGENTINOS are EXTRAORDINARILY handsome! I don't know that many Colombianos - so
nothing to say regarding THEIR looks. I do find it hard to believe that the same genetics would produce lovely women and unattractive men. And I do recall seeing a very handsome Colombiano news broadcaster on CNN once, but who knows - maybe he was short. He was sitting at a desk so he could have been a munchkin.

larumberainglesa says on Feb 10, 2007, 07:29:

Beware the sweet talk I am not gringa I am a Brit but married to a Colombiano for 7 years (together 10). I was in a 16 year relationship which I ended when I met him. I fell in love big time. He is tall and good looking. BUT I have never had as many problems as I have since we got married. I just don't think he's the marrying type. Unfortunately it's a bit late now as we have a child. There are certain in built stereotypes (ie I stay home while he goes out to enjoy himself in clubs) that seem irreconcilable. We are so different that sometimes I just spend all my time trying to understand him and it's exhausting. I would just say take your time with a Colombiano and don't rush into it as I did.

larumberainglesa says on Feb 10, 2007, 08:12:

Not sure what you are trying to say. I suspect you are criticising me for ending a relationship of 16 years which was dead anyway and which we both wanted to end but didn't have the guts to do so.

Larumberainglesa, Mario is partially retarded. Don't listen to him! He's nobody to talk. He has a part time relationship with a woman in Colombia. If she came to the U.S. he would be dumped in a second.

Blondie says on Feb 11, 2007, 15:53:

Just got back from spending a few days with my lovely colombiano!! I can say a few things... definately romantic, affectionate, sweet, respectful, considerate, polite, sexy, very good looking, great in bed, and definately did NOT lack in the "inches" department! Also.. one of the best kissers i have layed my lips on. He has no desire to move to the U.S., but got his Visa to be able to visit me. I'd be more than happy to be with this colombiano all of the time, but i cant say that i would seek out another colombiano or want to be with another one if he were no longer in the picture. Then again.. i havent really looked at any other cept for him.

Im gonna ignore the "gringa" comments from Mario.. cuz they are just funny.... and have nothing to do with being a gringa!!!
