Ok Everyone...let'sjust say that I would like to hear the opinion of some of you...This is my story...I came to the U.S from Cali when I was 6yrs old....I grew up here in the U.S...but I stayed true to my roots. I love my country and my people and everything about Colombia...but the past 3 years have been rough for me....Why? You ask? Because in the past three years I have been involved with two colombian guys that really put me thru some hard times. They both seemed so nice....So trustworthy...So serious....but Na-ah....One was sleeping with my uncle's wife, which was 20 something years older than he was....and the other one had one too many secrets that came along with him...now is it just me? or do Colombian men like to play women? I have been involved in relationships with an Italian, an Asian and an American...and never went thru all of this What is it? Really? Your opinions would be appreciated....GRACIAS!

DCShoeCo says on Jul 31, 2005, 13:55: Lauthra, I think you nailed it, I think NA men are just better at keeping their mouths shut. Colombian men need to brag to feed their egos more, hence they get caught and have the bad rep. NA just quietly do their thing.

Sylvie says on Jul 31, 2005, 14:08: It's not just Colombians, trust me on that one. There are some good guys out there and maybe you've gotten unlucky. I have a few girlfriends that have been unlucky like you and its hard. I on the other hand have dated great guys and am still friends with all 3 of my exes. You just have to be careful about who you date because there is always a rotten apple somewhere.

802MARK says on Jul 31, 2005, 19:51: TO MANY WOMEN I AM AMERICA WITH A NEW CALI WIFE, AND I WOULD NEVER CHEAT ON HER FOR ANYTHING IN THE WORLD, BUT IN MY TRAVELS TO CALI I SEE SO MANY WOMEN THAT ARE LIKE MODELS, AND THEY WERE ALL VERY EASY TO GET THEM IN BED, THIS IS BEFORE I MET MY WIFE, EACH TIME I FOUND ONE THAT I THOUGHT WAS A 10 I WOULD TURN MY HEAD TO FIND ANOTHER THAT WAS A 10 AND A HALF, AND SO ON, I'M NOT SURE BUT I THINK THERE IS FAR MORE WOMEN THEN MEN IN COLOMBIA FOR ONE THING, AND THE BIGGEST PROBLEM WITH THE MEN IS THAT THE WOMEN PUT UP WITH A MAN HAVING A FEW WIFES PLUS A FEW GIRLFRIENDS JUST AS LONG AS HE CAN TAKE CARE OF EVERYONE. I DATED A LADY THAT WAS UPPER CLASS SHE AND HER FATHER WERE LAWYERS, AND HE HAD A FEW WIFES AND GIRLFRIENDS, AND IT WAS COOL WITH EVERYONE, SO WHEN THESE YOUNG MEN LIVE WITH THIS AND GROW UP LIKE THAT, THEY SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, ALMOST A RIGHT OF PASSAGE FOR THEM TO BE WITH MANY WOMEN, THAT IS WHY THE YOUNGER LADIES IN CALI WANT AMERICAN MEN, THEY BELIEVE THAT WE ARE FAITHFUL, WE ARE NOT OF COURSE BUT MORE SO THEN COLOMBIAN MEN. YOU HAVE FOUND A FEW BAD APPLES THAT IS FOR SURE BUT YOUR LOOKING FOR A GOOD ONE IN A BARREL OF ALL BAD ONES. JUST MY TWO DIMES WORTH....

Alejandrita1981 says on Jul 31, 2005, 20:11: Crazy for Cali Actually...I don't like bad boys...and these guys did not have the bad boy look at all...believe me. They had the attitude of being very hard working, family oriented, good moral, loving and caring individuals...that's why I never saw it coming. I guess that growing up in a household where both my parents were Colombian...and my father never cheated or disrespected my mother...and were they love each other still after 28 years of marriage...I think this made me naive to the possibility of running into a low life.

bkelly says on Aug 1, 2005, 00:25: It is all men When I first arrived in Colombia, I heard a lot of bashing of the Colombian men. After being here awhile, I have to agree with what has been said above. Perhaps the Colombian men brag a bit more and get caught more often. Unfortunately I have seen the gringos, canadians and every other nationality do the exact same thing. I even see it when I am back home. Fidelity is a worldwide problem with both men and women. The good guys and gals are out there though! --bkelly 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

Crazy4Cali says on Aug 1, 2005, 07:58: OK, I stand corrected... But if your "handle" is an indication of your age (i.e. 24) then I'd say that's part of the problem assuming the men you're dating are of similar vintage. No offense to you, but men at 20-30 aren't a very stable lot (even the ones who think they are). They may say they are to get some of el chiquito, but what they say doesn't change what they are.

Alejandrita1981 says on Aug 2, 2005, 08:39: It takes a real man.. In my opinion it takes a REAL man to be faitfull. It takes a REAL man to go against what all the other men are doing and to be true and transparent with the woman that he has at home. A WEAK man will go after the first woman that will spread her legs....and it takes a DOG to do it more than once. If a man (or a woman) is not happy with the person that they are with and want to try something else...then why don't they ended it and them go out and look for something else?....and by doing this ...they at least respect the other person and also keep them from getting hurt?

I’m married to a girl, 20 years younger , but I still yearn for a 19 year old maybe 18, to be honest anything that’s willing to spread her legs for me. Are we (men) all dogs with no control, wild animals lower than a snake? I should be happy to have someone so young not throw up when she sees my naked body, sometime I accidentally take a look at myself and begin to gag, but not this lovely young girl, she sees me with her heart and not her eyes.

ElCheAmericano says on Aug 2, 2005, 10:23: I must agree, Sylvie's right One of my best friends lived with his girlfriend for 5 years and cheated on her almost the entire time. In my opinion he stayed an extra 3 years because he was a pussy and like Sylvie pointed it, he was comfortable. Personally I could never do that, I can't live my life lying constantly and feeling guilty. Maybe I'm a different type of pussy but I rather just end the relationship if I have doubts that I want to be with that person or if I have thoughts of being with someone else.

ontheRiZe says on Aug 2, 2005, 12:18: hold on Short and simple. Nowadays women are just as bad as men when it comes to fidelity or the lack thereof. Men are expected to cheat, in fact, maybe as much as 5/6 out of every 10 boyfriends/husbands cheat on thier women at one point or another(guesimation). But that has been going on for ages. Recently women have been playin the same game. I've heard crazy stories straight from the source. Women cheat out of spite. To get back at their husbands, boyfriends. Men cheat because it is in our basic instinct to conquer the female speices. I am not sayin all men cheat. Some of us are able to check our basic instincts. NARj. 0 funny, 0 helpful. |

Alejandrita1981 says on Aug 2, 2005, 14:48: OK OK Let's include women in this too...I admitt women can be cheaters too...some women think that if their husband/boyfriend cheats on them...that it is ok to cheat back...and it's not...but I think that women now a days are more liberal...they don't just stay home and wait for their husbands to cheat...I think some of them actually go out and cheat first. Some women don't have a serious boyfriend because they don't want to wake up to the same person every night...It is hard to generalize a certain gender with a certain behavior....every one is different I guess....Thanx for the compliment Utopiacowboy.
