Hi Guys,
I just returned from a fabulous 6 day weekend

in CR. The no cien rule must be taking hold at the DR because I got at least half a dozen chicas tell me $99 LOL. Anyway, I actually found the prices to be easier to negotiate than on previous visits. Either I’m getting better due to my continued education or there really is deflation there.
On another note, I wanted to share a story with you guys that have a regular or who think that a chica is really in love with you. I was visiting with a buddy who is Spanish but looks like a gringo. One night at the DR a chica caught my eye. She was a tall, slender, and blonde and looked very classy. She was well dressed and the thing that set her apart that she did not show much flesh. A novel idea at the DR… She could speak fluent English and she was a bit older than most there.
We sat down and introduced ourselves. Her name was Samantha and she was there with a friend. We had not been in the conversation for too long when she started conversing with her friend in Spanish not knowing that my friend was also fluent. My friend then motioned to me to go and get a drink. We excused ourselves and got up and walked to the bar. He then told me what he overheard.
Apparently, this Samantha was educating her fiend on “dumb gringosâ€. She went on to say that all you need to do is get one of these guys to like you and act like you like them and then you can stay in Costa Rica and milk them for all they are worth. You can get the really stupid ones to send you money every month and you can live a good life while these “dumb gringo’s†are paying for it.
I know I should not be surprised by this but I was a little upset that someone would talk about it right in front of us. We ended up going back to the table and started talking to them again. When they asked for a drink, my friend turned to them in his fluent Spanish and told her that since we were just dumb gringos, perhaps she would like to buy us a drink instead. It was priceless! We then got up and walked away.
There are a lot of great women in CR and some I’m sure will actually like you but I’d recommend you stick to the pay for play rule.
That’s my 2 cents…
Pura Vida!
