HAAAAAAA, the dude that literally RUNS after girls and jumps in front of them to say hi to every fine piece of ass he sees the first night I meet him....sober. lol, keep fightin the good fight man, whatever anxiety you have its all internal - I think I relate alot as I feel like a really shy kid but most people think im super out-going. That's just why I try and get white girl wasted every time we go out to loosen up!
Honestly that girl seems horrible if she's not putting up an equal effort in establishing a relationship...but i think ur a bit more find em, **** em, and flee is a bit more of the lord's style, gettin them trophy 9s and 10s
I'm not a beast in any means with girls, I'm just really nice and whatnot with ones I like, basically never pressure a girl into anything, and play a nice guy roll which is very different I think than the average macho local guy or sex crazed tourist that's here for a week and wants to hit and quit...and also being willing to put my penis in 94% of the females under 30 years old living in Medellin helps a bit. Whatever, zero standards and pretty eyes gets me by just fine.

yea, prob the absolute hands down most common place to get robbed is in Poblado. I still do like an idiot, but seriously don't walk around at night through anywhere dark or unpopulated...it doesn't matter if its a nice part of town, that actually works huuugely against you since all the thiefs go there to rob tourists since they all have more money on em than the average local in the hood. Combine that with dark spots all over poblado due to how foresty it is and how many little parks, creeks, nature walk type of spots and its just prime time for thiefs. I know 20+ people that have been robbed in Poblado, and a couple on la 70, and literally can't think of anyone else that has been robbed in normal parts of town...and its because that's where people go that have money - Poblado. Please note I have never heard of a violent incident ever in medellin involving a mugging, although alot of guns and knives - give up ur **** and you have nothing to worry about.
And no das papaya, which we all do in one way or another. I dress like a grimey skate rat most of the time, but just having a closed new era hat instead of a snapback can be considered dando papaya. Buying a water bottle instead of a bag of water can be considered the same when I'm with local friends, but I've stopped giving a crap as people just don't seem to mess with me when I'm rockin my skate rat style - had a bum give me money the other day.
It's been covered, but to dar papaya can range from pulling out your cell phone to text somebody, speaking english, dressing like a gringo, wearing jewelry, flashing money in any way that shows you might have more than $10 in your pocket, not haggling on prices, leaving a bag unattended, etc etc etc. Basically I understand it to not be a low-hanging fruit, ripe for the pickin
Si das papaya....que penaaaaaaa
Also I'll be up there next weekend, down for a 2p2 dinner. Keep us posted whoever wants to organize that, I call not it. Could also probably get in touch with pokerstars and have them pay for the whole thing for supernovas and above, they've done it before for us in mexico (like 11 course dinner at fancy restaurant for 20 of us) and many times in canada as well.
What I've been up to lately besides the pokers:
6 natural hot spring fed pools, with alot of waterfalls and other pretty stuff all around
Re-learning how to skateboard
Chupitos!!
