So an unexpectedly quick return to CR after my Feb/Mar birthday trip. Yesterday I found out I have business in Houston on 4/24, so quickly looked to extend that into a long weekend in SJO, and when I found the flights (from SFO) were a reasonable-for-2012 $850 (and at least half picked up by the company) and the HLH had a room for me, I pulled the trigger. Stoked, since I wasn't yet even fully recovered from Chepe withdrawal from the last one...

And the drama part - I called sweet little Jimena, my GFE from the last trip (see "3rd time's the charm" for the back story), on Saturday to wish her a happy birthday, and through the language barrier I understood that something had happened at the SL involving another chica and she had received a 4-month ban from the premises. So she is back working at the HLH, and she wanted to make sure than when I came down in mid-May (the original Houston biz trip schedule) or early July (tentative vacation) that I didn't stay at the SL. Wasn't able to get any understanding of what happened, though.

Then I texted her this morning with my new plans, and she was pleased, but then about an hour later I received... my very first RFM! Seems the combination of the venue switch and Semana Santa has her in a cash deficit position. Hard to say how I feel about that, and this afternoon, in a moment of cynicism, I was picturing all the chicas sitting around a very dead HLH bar having a little RFM party, and maybe even Boyd letting them borrow his laptop to shoot off some heart-wrenching emails! But then I felt a little guilty; I mean, it's not impossible that it could be genuine, right? I assume they're all feeling the pinch.

So I returned the text tonight, and tried to let her down easy, or at least as best I could with my abysmal command of Spanish. Although, feeling kinda punchy, I did say something about up here we have a rule that I try to live by, which is "no go, no squid pro quo". Hell, at least it was in English... and Latin...

The original trip game plan was to spend furious days working through the talent pool at the HLH (with first recons to some of the MPs), and then quite likely most of my nights with Jimena at the SL. But now there's a sweet little monkey in that wrench...

Anyway, for a real novice I'm starting to feel like I'm already hip-deep in this mongering thing - whoah!

First of all do not be too worried. There is no way she is going to be turning down business right in front of you. She is going to work. That is all the leverage you should need to establish some boundaries.

Before you even let guilt creap into your mind, remember that she is a prostitute. Plain and simple. It is not like you are going to bring her home and introduce her to the family. If you take another girl in front of her, she is still human and might be a little hurt but, she will get over it very fast.

As for the RFM. I have had many and even now still receive them evy few months. On the advice of another working girl my response has always remained the same. I cannot and do not send money electronically however, the next time I am in town I will be glad to help you. Basically that is code for no phucking way I am sending you money but you can blow me for it when I get there.

Once I do that, i never hear from some of them again. Others wait a respectable amount of time to dump me, while others who are much smarter and seem to be growing in numbers these days play the long game. They usually appear to be very understanding.

Heh, heh, this is the sort of thing I picture going on behind the scenes down there during these lean times (with appropriate gender swap, of course):

Anyway, my main thoughts about Jimena landing in my playpen down there were the switch to plan B, the mechanics of dealing with it and what opportunities it might present - didn't take me long to wind back to the HLH in March on the last morning of my trip, moments before checkout, with Jimena on the phone and gorgeous little Melissa naked in my room, and how nice it would be to somehow put that together in one sweaty little pile. Well, dawg, here's my opportunity, I just gotta figure out the best way to close that particular deal...

The CR, it's all about bringing dreams to life...

I've been to HLH a few times lately and it was not dead. More like alive with a full on party. Girls that want to work, and treat their customers well, will have work.

As a matter of fact, one girl had one client going to the room and another guy waiting. I suggested they all go together. They all just gave me a funny look, Guess I'll mind my own business.

"Despite rumors to the contrary the normal prohibition on the sale of alcoholic beverages will be in effect for this Semanta Santa. The rule applies from the night of Wednesday, April 4, to dawn Saturday, April 7. Bars normally close unless they have a restaurant or hotel business to keep running. Rumor has it that several private parties may break commence at HLH, and while the turn out of girls may decline they are still being encouraged to make an appearance."

Doesn't sound like that much of a wild party to me, and what Jimena was telling me was that she was concerned about what would happen when the tappers got shut down today.

Sorry but I've heard this all before. People will survive! She is not going to die if you don't send her money, she will survive. I love it when I get a RFM because that's when I'm the most popular. They are calling me, texting me, they Skype me when they are looking for money. Once I let them know I'm not the one, the texting and calling stops. Then I'm just a regular person again. jajajaja I just love those girls.

Many girls in the DR have 3 or 4 boyfriends sending them money while they continue to work. They are very crafty the way they can create a crisis whenever 2 of their boyfriends are scheduled to be in town at the same time. I even know one whose boyfriend was calling her constantly while she was upstairs with 3 guys doing a gangbang. Putas are the same all over the world. The three most famous hooker problems are:

1) My K*D is sick. This one gets the most abuse.

2) I need money because they are going to turn off our electricity.

3) My mother needs money for her medication and if she doesn't get it she will die.

As a neophyte in this arena, some of the things I wonder about are:

1) Does this have any reality to it, is there some sort of temporary financial dip that maybe wasn't planned for and therefore inspired the RFM activity, or is it just part of chica SOP?

2) Was the choice of going to me a function of some cold call on success potential, i.e., because I'm a nice guy, because I was reasonably generous in paying her when I was down there, because I seem to be an easy mark, or was there anything else involved? That's not to say she didn't or doesn't go to others as well, and certainly that she had my contact info was a prerequisite.

3) Is there a "kill the golden goose" aspect to this chica, and others for that matter, will they blindly pursue as much dinero as the can get and as quickly as they can get it, or do they recognize the value in maintaining a good customer over the longer haul? Will my no-pay response change things somehow? Will this matter just be dropped, or will the play continue when I'm down there?

I mostly view this as being just another opportunity to hone my chica management skills, just as balancing my time with her and all the others that are so ready and waiting will be over this oh-so-short visit. As much as I'll almost certainly have a huge, shit-eating grin on my face on the flight back, I suspect I'll also be mulling over the things I did wrong and the obvious-in-retrospect alternatives I should have taken...

Btw, I was done in on my HLH reservation (I really wish they didn't send emails that say "HLH reservation confirmation" in the subject line,when it's actually nothing more than an automated reservation request receipt confirmation), they're fully booked, so am staying at the Dunn Inn instead, my first time there. Kind of disappointing not to be right in the shit, but in the end maybe a healthy distance instead, and it seems like a nice place. Oh, and it was Jimena's choice as well...

I think after all the years reading this forum, drama is a necesary part for a large % of guys who like to play with the chicas. I don't get it, but that is just me not understanding things that aren't logical. As for the "special" ones. The same scenarios are played over 100's of times 365 days a year. Go to any venue, any day, and it is the exact same scene, only different guys faces. Many of them play their roles very well, and I applaud this as it is what they are supposed to do. In the end, if drama enhances your experience, do what you've got to do. But don't delude yourself and think it is anything but a grand play.

I don't know you, your girl, nor anybody here for that matter but this happens all over the world with Putas. Even if it is a true crisis only she knows the truth. If it is it won't be her first and she has managed to get through all of the others without you there to help her. IMHO it's not very likely there is validity. Putas don't have a standard income therefore they are terrible with budgeting themselves. She probably got caught with her pants down (not literally and is trying to overcome her shortage by utilizing what she figures is her "Ace in the hole.)"

You guys don't yet know me here on this board but I am a well traveled monger in many parts of the world and have heard these same stories on several different continents. If I run into you the next beer is on me.

Just my guess here, but the alternative would seem to be (in the extreme) a cold business transaction for a phuck, a partner in team masturbation as it were, and then a quick handshake and off you go in your separate directions, with a lighter wallet and a heavier purse. Sorry, but I can't see myself ever taking that approach. One is engaging another human being in what is a rather intimate interpersonal interaction, and I think it cheapens it unnecessarily not to at least acknowledge that much. And I have a hard time believing that the chicas engaging in this are any more all the same than the guys who do; that would be illogical.

I remember on my first visit to SJO and the HDR and KL last year seeing all these age 60 give-or-take guys sitting at the bars with their drinks looking oh-so-bored and disengaged, and thinking, "man, I don't want to EVER be one of those guys". I don't think it's illogical to want to derive something more from the experience than just sticking one's dick in a warm hole, or sportfucking one's way to the maximum number in the minimum amount of time with the minimum amount of money spent. And what is life in its totality, if not a grand play?

In the end, if all drama negatively impacts your experience, do what you've got to do...

Hopefully, you will find a happy balance in your mongering experience that enables you to enjoy it... and survive it, as well.
