A bit off topic but I have to say this is classical of a person digging his own grave. Sorry, for the interruption.
Here it’s a questions targeted directly for the old timers of DR1 and anyone living in DR for more than a decade… Has Americans lost theirs charm In last recent years with Dominican females ? … allowed me to rephrase the question utilizing more contemporary words (slangs) , DO American shine less than years ago as far as sparking an interest on female for the simple fact of being an American 🇺🇸 ?
My friend told me that 20 years ago Dominican women will throw them self at you just cause you were an American citizen , Are those days over ?
IF yes , what cause the decline ?
Good answerLet's just say you will be astonished by what you find this time around.
Blame it on the internet.
Times have changed a lot over the years and although money is and always will be a huge influence, it is not the only influence. Having access to better education than before there are more students at university studying for a career. You will always find opportunists, especially in the areas such as Boca Chica, Sosua, Cabarete etc. but as Johne says above, if you walk around many areas in Santo Domingo and even Santiago, you will find a totally different attitude towards foreigners. Many of them won't even give you the time of day because many Dominican women relate foreign men to the sex trade readily available here. It is changing very slowly, which is very positive, but there is still a long way to go. I have lived here for 20 years, married to a Dominican lady and I have a 19 year old daughter and it is interesting to see her, and her university friends attitudes towards foreigners...they are just not interested. It is also how you educate your children that can make a difference.
And when it comes to the chance of getting a visa, the funny thing is that many women try everything they can to get one, especially by marrying a foreigner, but it is incredible the amount of women that have left the DR only to return saying that life is in fact better here in the DR!
Mmmh, I dont know. Just recently, a few days ago, I got a lot of not-very-catholic looks from a group of university students.
Not too sure what university, it was on the metro L1, a stop or 2 before the Centre de los Heroes (??).
I think they assumed I didnt speak spanish, and just discussed me 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Nothing " wrong" per se, but if --- God forbid--- I had daughters, I would prefer they were " into" boys of their own age and not 40 year old men ........ but thats just me 😑😑.
HEY ! You need to show respect to all members of this forum and their opinions: you didn’t read the rules and regulation of the forum ? Are we clear ? I AM GOING TO NEED YOU TO MAINTAIN A HIGH LEVEL OF SENSITIVITY AND RESPECT AND PROFESSIONALISM WHEN YOU REPLIED TO THREADS FROM ME or ANY OTHER MEMBER …. DO YOU COPY ?
by the way :
F.U. M.F …. How is that English for you ?
And there it is. You’re 40, not a senior citizen. 😊
At times I feel like one 🤣🤣🤣
I was under the impression that the OP was kind of around that age. Not to sure why though.
It always was and still is $US, charm never came into play also a rare commodity by most players.The charm is being an US CITIZEN …. what do you mean what charm , every one knows that was a HUGE plus being an american 20 years ago as far as sparking Dominican women interest
Perhaps your friend with 20 year old view points is not aware of the strong, independent position Dominican women have achieved over that period of time? Some of those ideas might have a genesis born in some northern cities that have gained a reputation as a "sin city". Your friend is old, old, old and you are trying to put a "shine" on antiquated views toward the real women of the D.R. Try walking around Naco, Piatini, etc, in the capital for a week and form your opinpons from what you observe. Ask those women( those in business dress), and those going to the universities what they think. That would be a more "contemporary " inquiry" NOT the advise of some old farts trying to re-live their past.

From what you posted in other threads - this is yet another of a multitude of stupid questions,
I'd say charm is something you will need to work on, as well as whatever you are using to translate your questions into English.
You can have a relationship sure, but there are not many women here who think Americans or other foreigners, for that metter, are any great shakes.
However based on your English, it appears you are not likely a natural born US citizen
A good percentage of the time you make no sense

Say what you want, there are many women in the DR lacking a great education but many of them are very intelligent.Those women with attitude would stack up at best to middle class in US, CAN, EU, if that.
The wealth created by the seriously rich is usually from daddy, not generated by a majority of DR women.
Regardless they are the exception.
As far to University education in the DR, it is limping way behind 1st world standards.
The few shining stars remain the exception. not the average standard.
Indeed they are.Say what you want, there are many women in the DR lacking a great education but many of them are very intelligent.
100% agree.Say what you want, there are many women in the DR lacking a great education but many of them are very intelligent.
