Should I ask, or maybe not...
sorry, can't help myself.
What did the girls say the reasons were?
Cheers,

Bueno The girls commented on the "in general" ability of the gringos to be faithfull, more grounded, responsible, etc. None of them commented on the dancing of these gringos.

Was the Show Christina?? I saw this about 6 months ago in the Reruns of Christina running in the early AM hours. If this was the same show I saw-it had 3 Young Colombianas and one gringo appearing Male but in fact he was not a Gringo but a German who speaks very fluent spanish, along with english, german, french and italian. I personally know him and he is married to a lady from manizales, Col.I kidded him the next time I saw him as he hardly said a word on the show. The Ladies stated they were looking for a Northamerican for the above reasons another posted stated. Dancing ability was never mentioned ; concerning this subject, Dancing, the World Ballroom Champs(Latin Ballroom Division) a few years ago in Salsa was a British Couple. A japanese couple were the runner-ups so that defies the cliche "Fair skinned guys dance with 2 left feet and no rhythm".It would have been interesting to see if these 3 colombian ladies ever found their "mitad mejor" through the agency.Some of these Colombian Ladies have inaccurate ideas on American Males-not all americanos are bad, not all are good. Perfect we are not!!

miguel The only thing funnier than watching those gringos dance is trying to read your spanish. Those in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks.
No, I take that back, reading your spanish isn't funny, it's downright painful!!

They're losers trying to find other losers to marry. I should know because I'm a loser married to a loser. If I could only get her to stay inflated.

Disclaimer: any comment I make is inane and is not to be taken seriously, and is so patently ridiculous that no one should take it seriously, even as an insult.

losers Any gringo who goes through these agencies to find somebody is a total loser in my book. The chicas I can understand a little bit more, more or less -- they need a meal ticket, and they aren't finding one in Colombia.

I met one gringo here in Miami -- and I know for a fact his story is far from atypical -- who went through two of these babes before the third was able to get a visa.

He talked about going back to Colombia for a wife as if he were going to the freakin' store. Who the woman was didn't matter, as long as she fit his idea of a mujer sumisa.

I felt sorry for his wife -- a professional in Bogotá, who sat next to him not comprehending what he was saying because she still hadn't learned English.

This guy was, and still is, a fat, disgusting loser.

Now, Miamigo, don't be too hard on them. Somebody's got to feed and clothe these single Colombiana mothers and their children. Who better than some misfit gringo loser? Later she can dump him for somebody else.

miami mike re. "mitad mejor" querido:

instead of "mitad mejor" -- you would say "media naranja" - the other half of her/his orange, sort of a "soul mate" if you will .......any corrections for me?
You know us chicks, while waiting for modofoques like Elmo to ram our CHIKITOWES, we sit around reading romance novels and boning up on our romantic phrases.

I do love MEDIA NARANJA, anyone have a story on using MEDIA NARANJA in real life?

ciaoito!

I call her my media manzana - she hates apples. So you don't think getting on all fours and getting your chiquito rammed is romantic?

Debateable Inflatable? In a hotel in Bogota I hired an inflatable for a reasonable price. On reaching my room I proceeded to give it the works and unfortunately she developed an air leak.

I rang the manager and told him that my inflatable had gone down on me.

He said "in that case sir I will have to charge you extra for that service"

As they say, "the old ones are the best"
