I saw it this same way at your age. My libido dick-tated most of my actions like this. It was great to have this option. It usually averaged 2 to 3 dates to get into a Gringas pants which was fun but just like you I was taking care of my libido & didn't want the responsibility of really dealing with keeping these relationships going. I put business first always over pu$$y & hindsight has proven this was the right thing for me to do. Another problem with these "real relationships" you have to deal with ducking their calls & being pissed at you. It can wear on a guy where a place like the gulch you can just have fun without all the headaches & worries.

I would concentrate on my profession & making $$ first then play second. Work hard play hard was win win for me. It always seemed to me a guy could never go too wrong on taking care of finances first, women will always be around later. At least you seem to understand yourself well & are being honest about it. I think you are being very smart about it all.

There is always plenty of time for a man to find a soul mate later especially if he is set financially. Later is better also I feel since what you are doing is working most of your "kinks" out so you know more what you truly want in the end. Also you will have less libido pulling at you by the time you might want to settle down. You will also not feel you missed out on much of anything which may make you more content with what ever choice you chose in your future.

There are always inherent risks with the fires we play with. Many men start to stray one way thinking this is only a break from normalcy & they can get back on their original course before they hit the point of NO RETURN. It seems to me most of the time men are slowly but surly consumed by the mongering life style which generally involves some very poisonous habits of drugs & alcoholism. I guess as long as they are happy…..

I sure spend a lot on my libido & have to laugh about it all now but I don't regret it at all since it was great fun. I sure learned a lot along the way while I had that fun. Another win-win IMHO. For me the worst thing I could have done would have been to marry real young. It really pays to kick a lot of tires out there before one makes a big decision like that. Variety is the spice to life without a doubt to me but true love is in a league of it’s own. I believe the problem with true love it becomes much more difficult to find as we get older since by that time we all just know & have seen way too much.

We all arrived from solar winds & are soon to be little more than dust in the wind. Some people called me selfish because I wouldn’t yield to their ways or desires. I always felt life was way to short to not follow your true wants & convictions as long as they didn’t hurt others directly with intent & deceit. The only way I feel I could cover the ground I wanted was to pay women for it. I felt better about myself this way than all the lies to get what I was really after. So many men I know look for a woman to make them happy . I feel you should find your happiness first & then enjoy that with a good woman .

Gotta agree with you Zippy.

I've got several friends that married either early or out of desperation. Few of those marriages were "you are the ONE I want to be with forever". Most were of the "You're the best I think I can get now" variety.

Guilty, your honor... No sir, I've not smoked any crack... Nor snorted any either...

Uh, but I've phucked quite a few... And yes, I've been called a cunt kisser before... Actually I can't get enough of that additive orifice...

I am a habitual offender as I'm definitely hooked on hookers...

Not sure Im looking for Novia, my definition of Novia is someone I care about and someone who has shown me with her actions that she feels the same. So, I guess that's what I would look for, someone that I believe is for real. Thats hard to do in places like CR, Med. or DR. Since you would have trouble believing it in the first place.

So, I am trying to learn to take what I can get and leave the negative stuff where I found it.

You sure need to keep that negative thinking out of the equation....Take what you can get? Why? ...perhaps it's time for you to look in that 'local" mirror of yours and keep a 100% positive attitude when you travel to foreign countries and cultures....JMHO

Back to the original question from Bilko which I find interesting since it was first posted in '07 when I first arrived here in CR to today, where I can now honestly respond....

Bilko Wrote:

What is the ideal age? Ideal is someone who can carry multi-topic conversations. For me-->> 23-28 yrs old
Does she have to have a spinner body? Yes, and not a pouch of a stomach from her previous pregnancies...lol
What sort of education level? I retired here from "Siliicon Valley, CA" - as previously stated, someone who can converse with me --> College-level
How many K*ds will you accept? Accept? Depends on a LOT of things, but for me she has zero which makes life perfect (for us)
Is it okay if she is/has been a hooker? You mean like Pamela from ZB? LOL No thanks....imho each person is 100% a unique case study
Does she have to want to relocate to the USA (or Canada)? No - but I am getting her a US Visa so we can visit our bud's in FLA and NY (don't forget Vegas ! LOL)

I think the Novia question should be taken seriously by guys who are considering living (at least part time) in CR.

1) No pros, (part time or full time) I would never trust a Tica that was in the bizz.
2) Trust, you must have some level of trust, even if you do not plan to co-habitate or entertain legal commitments.
3) Educated/skill, she must have some kind of education/skill, i.e bi-lingual, skilled or has held a job.
4) Responsible, she has a plan, other than clean out the Gringo, and is committed to it.
5) Compatibilty, you can bring something to the table which works with the plan.
6) Attractive to you.
7) K*ds and family do not impact your relationship.

Other wish list items that are insignificant:
1) Chemistry (chemica) wears off.
2) Age, young enough to fulfil item 6, to young and she won't have items 1-6
3) Body type. Whatever, over time you will get bored with it.


If you are hung up on the second list, then you are looking for favorita not a novia.

You're taking novia, right? Not a one night stand, but someone you could actually have a life with, a conversation and share common interests...

What is the ideal age? 24 - 32

Does she have to have a spinner body? A body so hard you could bounce a quarter of her abs, think Sammi at HLH

What sort of education level? The more the better, but common sense is a must

How many K*ds will you accept? Uh, NONE

Is it okay if she is/has been a hooker? Nope. Once a ho, always a ho

Does she have to want to relocate to the USA (or Canada)? If she even mentions going to the US for anything other than a vacation, I would dump her so fast it would make her head spin...

Now, if you're talking about a rental who is on retainer to fulfill all my kinky requests...

What is the ideal age? 18

Does she have to have a spinner body? Yes

What sort of education level? Who cares, we ain't gonna be having much convo

How many K*ds will you accept? who cares

Is it okay if she is/has been a hooker? the nastier the better

Does she have to want to relocate to the USA (or Canada)? who cares, not on my nickle

haha pretty good Muadib!

So many men are not willing to take responsibility for their own mistakes that its much easier to go through life blaming the woman for not being up to Western standards(when talking about foreign women), when the same core values are needed for any relationship to work. Money, Education, etc are NOT the most important things. Those looking for highly educated women, how's that working for you? Likely not so well or you wouldn't be posting here, you should signal the failure of finding such a thing or go searching in a country with a larger pool of perspective women. You might find somebody that you can converse with on world issues, current events and all that, but is lacking in so many other areas. Also too many people put too much value on material success and put that ahead of finding overall happiness. I say both should work hand in hand.

Any woman that wants an "established" man, you should be very wary of those women because even if you don't believe or they don't believe they are Gold Diggers, guess what, they are Gold Diggers. Any woman that would rather be involved with a poor local and but only want a Westerner in a better financial position is in fact a Gold Digger. Any woman that complains that all her dates are "cheap" in a country with a lower average income than Western countries, she's a Gold Digger. I could continue but you get the point...

Any woman that has to consider the welfare of their Ch*ldren will try and move upmarket, but even then you should be cautious.

I would like to find a woman without Ch*ldren because it a) cost less right now b) less complication. But I want Ch*ldren, just not her's from a previous relationship. For men in their 50's and 60's this a bit of an issue, as many of you have been married before, have Ch*ldren already and not interested in having more. You should automatically be looking at women in their mid to late 30's, not early to mid 20's. Yeah that sucks but those are the realities. A majority of women in their 20's are going to want to have Ch*ldren at some point, asking a 22 year old about Ch*ldren and expecting to get a fully thought out answer is expecting WAY too much. Many women who've never been married but in their 30's would also like to have Ch*ldren. You should be looking for non-Pro women in their mid to late 30's as most of these women have had Ch*ldren already, can't have Ch*ldren or don't want any Ch*ldren.

I personally think I'm in an unique situation and I won't spell that out, you need to figure it out yourself. I am not early retired ex-Silicon Valley read:$$$ and I'm not former/current small business owner, etc. I've never firmed established myself as I am not a believer in "Build It and They Will Come" nonsense. You're just inviting a Gold Digger in varying degrees IMHO. When men seek out women who will except this elevated status, little do they understand that a majority of women gain wealth in their lives via marriage. This includes so-called "Career Women". This is why many of those women demand economic and social "equals". They usually marry to a man of higher economic or social status. Those marriages are not any more successful than those of equals of lesser means.

This is why M-O-N-E-Y should always be left out of any discussion. Don't get it twisted that hookers are into you beyond the money. If a woman who happens to be a hooker is into you, then count your blessings that you found somebody that is actually a woman still and not something else

SHM at some of the demands or desires of some men, you would have more success in America if you accept older women. Nobody said women late 30's to mid 40's can't be attractive, its just the majority aren't. Nobody said a woman in her mid to late 30's, early to mid 40's can't have Ch*ldren. Women over 35 having Ch*ldren for the first time has tripled since the 1970's...

Good Luck finding a Chica early to mid 20's, who's educated, attractive, childless, mature and wants to date a Western Man in the first place. I haven't even gotten to having things in common, speaking a common language, etc. If Costa Rica or frankly any of these developing nations had a wealth of these women don't you think their economic situation would be much further along?????????

When you land in a country that is full of attractive women that are begging to marry Western Men, let me and millions of other Western Men know because that country does not exist. You missed that opportunity anyway, that was shortly after the fall of the Soviet Union.... So if you missed that, your SOL.

Bravo


Cujo

Actually, I prefer a woman as dumb as a box of rocks. Provided she doesn't talk very much..

hhmm...
lets see--chemistry a must but i never been attracted to ugly chicks so i guess she has to have something;
she has K*ds?--she better have income to support them;
virgin?--i never met one, cannot have opinion;
contemplate to marry her?--only with prenuptual agreement;
she has to understand basics--be a whore in bed, be good in kithen, and queen in streets;
ok, i am old fart, so i kinda dont discriminate on age basis but somehow all hookers are young;
most chicks / including with degrees / dont know how to hold conversation so they should be good in bed;
lately i try to be married multiple times without asking anything and they reject me anyway--after they milk me.

What is the ideal age?
20-29

1) Does she have to have a spinner body?
Don't have to, but I do like spinners. Big Dominican girls can break my little a$$ in half

2) What sort of education level?
I don't really care. Novia and wife (or someone you live together) are different in my view.

3) How many K*ds will you accept?
0-1

4) Is it okay if she is/has been a hooker?
Was, ok. Current, probably not. My thought on this is similar to Q2.

5) Does she have to want to relocate to the USA (or Canada)?
Nope.
