Colombian and Latin Cupid

4 years ago

With everything being so heavy and at times depressing I thought I would bring up a lighter topic. I have jumped on an off these two sites since my first trip in April of 2012 to Medellin. I have learned some valuable lessons on these two sites and if you are new on there, I recommend a learners permit before you go all in. The sad thing about Latin Cupid is you can tell how a nation is doing by the demographics on the site. The DR which I know well going there with ex wife some 28 years ago and since always has a strong showing, and normally Colombia does as well. Over the last 3 years or so it is now lots of Venezuelans, Brazilians, Cubans, and still the DR and Colombia have good showing. In 2012-2015 you could hardly find a Venezuelan on the site. It may not be scientific (some fake profiles) but a pretty good indicator of a nations economy I believe. Sadly, as a result of this virus you can see the results more clearly there and how people need help. I am 8 years older now, and hardly any thinner or better looking but many want to be friends now more then ever sadly for them. I have actually dated and met some nice women on there if dating age appropriate. If you go with 20's or 30's though it is likely a prepago or postpago at my age. I know many are married on our thread, and may luckily have missed out on Cupid, but it kills the time during the shutdown and sometimes you actually make a new friend. I'll not share any private stories here, but is a interesting area if your single. As a side note my friends in the states say ask why I go to Colombia. I go into weather, cost of living etc.. and if that doesn't work bring up Colombian Cupid on phone and use qualifiers petite, slim, or athletic, and attractive or very attractive. I promise that will convince them. This is not a sex tourist post, because I am not that at all, but you can meet nice women to date, if you tread carefully,
