I have a Tica whom I see almost exclusively now, aside from a few daytime trips to the ZB, did four straight TLNs with her on my Thanksgiving trip. I have her number, and after the first meeting, we set a time for the next night and she comes to the hotel on her own. However, I won't call her a "novia", my preferred term is "regular", or maybe "part-time novia"--she only sees you while you're there, but once gone who knows what she does.
A better term though might be "sugar babe". There are "sugar dating" sites out there, like sugardaddie.com, that are about women looking for men to pamper them--sex is usually involved but it is more about companionship in return for some financial compensation, i.e. "sugar". That's how I think of my Tica regular, she's my Costa Rican sugar babe.
You still seem to be in denial about what you are doing. Sugar daddy, regluar, blah. She is a prostitute and you are a "john." I re-read your previous posts about calling it a propina if you pay afterwards. Does this make it feel normal or like a natural relationship based upon trust, love and all that other crap? You pay her $120 afterwards and assume she is exclusively yours, when you are present. Open your eyes, she may be sessioning with others, inbetween your sessions. In fact, I bet she is looking for more money as the "easy money" factor makes 'em greedy. She will session with ANYONE while she is not under your arm.
Seriously, I'm just trying to shed light on reality. She is not a novia. She is a prostitute.
