RE: Review of Medellin, Colombia
Wow! So what a night! Ok, you want the details, you got 'em!
Before the details of my first flag, I'm just gonna come out and say, I got robbed tonight. It was bound to happen sooner or later I guess. 7 months in Latin America and it was my first time, I guess I should consider myself somewhat lucky. Dude had a knife, I had about $20 plus my maybe $30 wallet, I suppose I made the right move by just handing it over. But that's neither here nor there.
So... About the flag... It was a girl I met on Latinamericancupid. She's cute, but for me nothing special. I told a couple friends I didn't think much of her, but they thought she was nice. They said she was maybe a 7, and I would agree if I was in the states, but for here, she's just an average ass girl if you ask me. The first night I didn't make any moves other than the kiss. The second night I tried but she showed resistance. She told me that night she wasn't a slut and and that she moves slow. So after that. I slow down. Don't respond as fast to her messages, try and give her the hint that, "Look, I'm here to have a good time!" It seemed she got the message on the 3rd date. We went out with some guys on the forum and my room mates to my favorite happy hour spot. It seemed like everyone was gonna take it easy for the most part, so I decided, I'll give her one more drink and take her home. I already had it set up... She needed a cab home and I told her, "Look, I didn't bring enough for the cab with me, we have to go back to my house and grab the money." Perfect! We went to my place and she was much more aggressive this time than the past two times, and this time I was a little more loose than the other times. I get her into my room and she starts to take my shirt off. I know where this is going, so I take over. I get her naked and bam! No resistance at all this time. She knew I meant business! Da me la bandeira!!!!
So fast forward to tonight... Me and the awkward Hungarian room mate are eating dinner at Lleras Town, which happens to be my favorite restaurant in the area. The Polllo al Limon is awesome and only COP$16. We see two girls eating, I go to have a smoke and make a call, I come back and my room mate is talking to them. I must say, this kid is a little weird and knows no Spanish, but he will approach any girl that passes him! The kid has balls! I have to give him that. He earned points in my book tonight. These girls were ok. I saw they didn't speak English and he was struggling, so I stepped in to give him a hand. The girls say they have to go home because they have to work in the morning. No big deal, we get their numbers, I let him choose which he wanted of course because he approached. Whatever, we continue with our meal.
15 minutes later, two BAD BITCHES walk in. He dogs them like you couldn't imagine. I already knew he was gonna go talk to them. He tells me, "You see those two?" Of course I did, they were the two finest girls in Lleras that night. He says, "I'm gonna go talk to them." I'm thinking, yeah, good luck dude, you know no spanish and they are both out of control. We ask for the bill, and while I wait, he approaches. I expect about a 2 minute, "Thanks for trying to talk to us in your feable spanish, now please let us enjoy our meal.." But NO! I wait for the bill and it takes too long. I notice he is doing good work. I walk up to the waiter and say, "Just bring our check to this table." I approach them with Spanish, come to find the girl my roomie is talking to speaks English, the other doesn't. Cool, I'll take the one who doesn't, even though the other looks better, he approached, he chooses, plus principal, he doesn't speak Spanish and I can make it work. Regardless, both are fucking smokin'. In any other scenario, the girl I was talking to would be the best looking just about anywhere she was, but the one my room mate was talking to was just on another level. I don't say this much, but for me she was a 10! I couldn't believe the awkward roomie got us set up!
When I came up, the girls were friendly. At first I thought, ok, maybe this will be a 5-10 minute convo and then we're off. But the girls invite us to join them with their pitcher sangria... Ok, looks like we might be here for a half hour or so. I'm supposed to meet up with a couple dudes from the forum (Which by the way, fucking awesome guys!) I tell them, "Look, we just met some stunners, give me about 20 minutes and I'll give you a call." About 30 minutes goes by and things are looking nice. I tell the boys we need a little more time. I tell the girls about a spot, which I think is somewhat new, that they hadn't been to. At first they said they were just going to go home and call it a night. After about 40 minutes of drinking, I wasn't even trying to push it at all, they decided they wanted to come with us. At first it seemed like their plans were set in stone, but then with a simple, "We're gonna meet up with some friends at Chupitos," they were ready to go. I didn't even ask, I suggested and the one I was with asked her friend, and she decided, fuck it! Nice! On top of that, I tell the girls, "Look, we drank most of your sangria, we'll pay." Unbelievably (And if you've been to Medellin and seen how most the real good looking girls here act, you'll know what I mean) they say, "Know, we all drank it, we'll split it 4 ways." These are some down ass bitches.
The guys are almost ready to go to meet us at another spot, assuming these girls are about to go home, but I call them and tell them to stay there cause we're coming with our girls. We head over, and it's pretty empty. The guys were pretty ready to go it seemed like because there was nothing single there for them, and I don't blame them. One of the buddies already had a girl so he was cool (And big ups for the bottle later on that night! Cool kickin' it with you while you were out here!). Anyways, we brought the girls out, met up with the homies, eventually everyone left and we were there solo with the girls. My girl was showing a decent amount of resistance at first. She wanted me to think she was of high value, and that she was. But I moved slow, and I think it worked. At the beggining of the night we were talking about what kind of things I could do before I left, since I haven't seen much of Medellin. She brought up somewhere next to Rio Negro and how there was a great spot there. I said, "Yeah, that sounds nice, want to come with me next Sunday?" She starts talking to her friend and comes back to me and says, "How about this Sunday? In two days?" Daaaaammnn, I already have plans with my origional colombian flag. But you know what? She doesn't compare. I tell her it's on. Now I have to think of something to tell the origional girl.
Once we got there, me and the girl I'm with start dancing, but she was very timid. We dance one song and she sits down. She's playing hard to get. I play it cool. Eventually, I get her to ask me to dance. I tell her I like the music, she says, "Wanna dance to it?" Yeah I do... We start dancing, my room mate is going a little two hard. All good though, nothing out of the ordinary, he went for the kiss, she denied. I felt I knew how to deal with the girl I was with well though. I took it real easy. I suggest the girl I was with and I go take a shot next door and Chupitos Shots, it's a cool atmosphere, I described it above. She was down and we did. We head back and my girl asks, "Let's meet for dinner in this area tomorrow night too?" Awesome! Playing it slow seems to be paying off. Inside I'm thinking, "Fuck yeah we'll go to dinner tomorrow!" But I give her a casual, "Yeah, let's exchange numbers and I'll give you a call sometimes tomorrow afternoon." Things are starting to fall in place. At first she seemed a little resistant, but now she is the one trying to make plans with me, perfect! Eventually the girls call it a night around 3. I felt we did good work.
We went from dinner at 10:30, to taking them out 'til 3 am when they didn't plan on going out at all. I felt I threw some great game. I don't wanna count my chickens before they hatch, and I know it won't be easy, but I know I did a damn good job. Maybe I won't get it, but I feel confident I will. I really was on my A-game tonight. These girls are definitely worth the work they may potentially take. I'm finally working on the type of colombian girl that I've been looking at and thinking, "Damn, if only I could get that." Like I said, it might not be easy, but I promise you this, I'll give it what I got. I feel confident she's not gonna flake, but who knows with these girls. Alls I can say is I put in damn good effort. I'll keep you guys updated.
Now though, I have to deal with the other girl. We have plans for the next two days, but I already know I have to cancel. Yeah, it's a sure thing, but to hold it off is worth it. I hate to hurt the girl, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. And I'm out, wish me luck!
