I am seeing a strange familiarity with postings from cjp2010 and Omar. Kind of like deja-vu

This is why I date men.

i support this claim. i always dated men and it is cool because they tend to pay the bills in order to get into girl's panties. but because it's dinner first and panties later you can always say no to the latter after you wined and dined. which is why it is the wisest advice is never ever to date and just do the whacking yourself.

I don't get your reply. The OP has indicated to tip good service, therefore, tipping a bartender for keeping your beer cold would qualify in my book and deserve the extra 10%. What's so complicated?

Well......
For one thing, I wonder if it ever occurred to the OP that what he may save by buying the "Grande", he will spend by increasing the % of tip required for the expanded service.(beer on ice)
And anyway, what self-respecting, Presidente drinking guy is going to ask to put a beer on ice?
I mean really, he might as well ask for a big straw. :rambo:

No doubt that after 18 years you need more time to get it up and because of that the cost is higher....

Both the WHO and IMF would agree with your last sentence, lessen the chance of a STD and stick the money you would have played with in the bank, that way the govn't can grab it or tax it in times of austerity...... however, all this would make Jack a dull boy and possibly even short sighted. Vive Pro Diem!

cjp2010 I think it is about time you started a thread about " Dominican food" now because I see you are talking about everything under the sun LOL but I like that. Tell us what are you favorite food in DR, favorite dishes, fruit, drink etc.

Then after the food thread talk about transportaion in DR like are guaguas right for gringos, do public cars make a great second car for less money, subway, what are the best cars to own in DR, keeping your tires filled with air etc.

Last but no least C2010 I want you to talk about being a "pet owner" in DR because of all the stray dogs on the island. People poison dogs in DR and I was wonder how you would handle this?

BTW You would make a good mayor for any DR city because after reading your threads DR is not a bad place to JMB773 anymore THANKS!!!

haha.

I actually do use the public car now. We didn't use the truck enough to justify keeping it. Would have been nice to have had it instead of walking to the gym in the rain today though.

Yeah the pet thing is terrible. I don't face that as something in my daily life but every time you are out you see it. And its farm animals too. Animals in general are so mistreated here and in many poor countries. I don't have a solution for that.

My Dominican relatives always say "You can't buy anything from a gringo. They want too much and don't negotiate. They only negotiate when they want to buy but not when they sell."


1. If you rent, re-negotiate it. And never pay an up-charge after just one year (or whatever your term is). First, don't let your landlord tell you when it is time to renew the lease that he wants more moeny. There is too much competition for renters. You might pay him the same if you like the place but don't pay more. After a few years in one place, maybe, but not year after year. Also, try negotiating it lower yourself. Rents drop around here often. Last time we were set to renew ours we were paying $725. The landlord said he wanted to put $800 on the new lease. I told him we have a big problem because i don't want to pay $725 again, much less $800. I told him we could get a similar place for $550 now since rents have come down. He said ok, he'll keep it at $725. I said ok, we'll be moving. He came back the next day and offered it at $600 and we accepted.



funny
you sound like that gringo your family was talking about

It is funny. I am just like that. I would never negotiate that much if I was selling anything. But I have nothing here to sell so they will never know.

Especially a Dominicana.

She just wants more and more and more SEX!!!!!!!!

I was glad to give..............................

Mine wanted sex every night while I was there. In fact, we made our first romp almost immediately after I landed in SDQ.

I was going to be a gentleman and at least wait until the following night. Seeing as though I landed, met her and drove her with me to the hotel in the wee hours of the night, I figured we'd both feel a little timid.

The minute I locked the door to my room, all that timidness went right out the window. It almost felt like a scene from a porn flick :D

That's EXACTLY what the other 10 guys she has met at the airport said!!!!
I have "Several" questions I ask guys who want to know if "THEIR" Dominicana is a working/semi-"Working Girl".
1st. is "Did You meet her on a "Latin Lovelies" type internet site?
Second is always, "Did she have sex with you the day/night you first met her?
Things are not looking too good for you so far, OMAR.
I have MORE, if you need to be 100% positive.

Just remember, the words "SEX", and "TIMID" NEVER appear in the same sentence here!
"OMAR", it's MUCH better that I "Bust Your Bubble" now, than she busts your bank account, or WORSE, your HEART later!
Overwhelming a man with sex is the oldest, and BEST, trick in the "Dominicanas" "BAG"!
Be very careful, if she treats you like you are the only man in the WORLD, and you "Buy It",it may be too late!
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
In later "Lessons", I'll teach you how to "Get Over" on a "Dominicana",FIGURATIVELY SPEAKING!!!!
It only took me 10 years, 200.000 dollars, and 7 broken hearts to learn the technique!
