The World of Dating


We don't know for a fact how the universe came to be. It's all theories. When it comes to dating, no one has all the answers. But it is much like a chess game. There are rules and strategies. You've got to be somewhat acquainted with the game in order to know your next move. You can't go in it without a strategy; otherwise you'll end up empty handed, whether you are a man or a woman.

This is the first time in my life that I am a sexually active single woman. I am not all that familiar with the game, but luckily I can count on an array of smart sexy women who know the tricks and guide me through my learning process. They are all located in different parts of the world and don't know each other. They all have similar traits, but are so different at the same time. There is a reason they all have me in common, as I also share a lot of their passions, opinions, ideas and goals in life. We all want to be happy, achieve success and call the shots in our own lives. A new breed of women? Perhaps.

My Girls

Susana* The Sweet Lawyer
My Guatemalan baby girl. She is actually older than me, but is a kid at heart. Other than my mother, I know for a fact she will always be there for me and expect nothing in exchange. She is non confrontational, quiet, sweet, unselfish and somewhat naive. This last trait has been fading away over the years, as experience has taught her a thing or two. Susie does not have a mean bone in her body and would be the type to drop everything for you if you need her. How did she end up being a lawyer with that sweet nature of hers? No idea! Lol. I love you Susana.

Deborah* The Free Spirited Artist
There is absolutely nothing girlie about this Colombian firecracker. She is raw, blunt, adventurous, carefree, wise, incredibly smart and funny. Debbie has a way with words, but that's no surprise because she devours books of all sorts: Novels, politics, poetry, philosophy, etc. She sings, writes music and erotic poetry. I often tell her that if she were a boy, she'd have me eating out of her hand. I'd be so seduced by her sweet talk and brains. I do not know a single man who can speak with such power. I always look forward to our discussions as they never lack depth. We talk art, music, books, socioeconomic and political issues, love, sex and laugh nonstop through it all. We both are "Clowns of the cheap dirty kind" as Deb puts it. Did I mention she is bisexual?

Barbara* The Busy Model
Barbie is my worldly girlie girl. She has been all over the globe and is a successful model. A magazine spread, a billboard, a night hanging out with celebrities... that's just an average day for her. Down to earth, sweet, funny, ambitious, classy, poised and well spoken are only a few of her attributes. She is this beautiful Colombian doll. We can talk for hours on end. I enjoy my Skype dates with her to the fullest. When I need to feel feminine, she is my go to person. She gives me man and beauty advice. We also talk about photography (my passion and eternal love!), career and business.

Kimberly* The Practical Young Entrepreneur
She is an all American girl. A risk taker, confident, good looking and an extremely sexy woman. She is Midas with a vagina. Kim is good at making money, investing it and then making some more. You name it she's done it. She has been a waitress, a model, a career woman and now a business owner and she's not even 30. I rely on her advice a lot. She is my dating bible, sex adviser and social scene guide. If I need to know of a hot place for drinks, food, music, shopping and all of the above... she is my girl. Kim is very resourceful all around. She is very perspicacious. Nothing goes by her and that's the reason a lot of us unload our problems on her. You can expect to get perspective and a very useful solution to any situation you might be in; it doesn't hurt that she loves helping people.

All these women bring something to my life and represent a part of me for all the things we do have in common. What would I do without them? Thank you ladies. Thank you for showing you care through out the years.

Out On The Field

I won't deny it, it is quite exciting to be dating. It annoyed me at first. Too many actions are left to interpretation. I was so confused. I am a stranger to many situations and in every turn, I learn something new. Like we say in Guatemala "You gain more experience for the next time".

My Last Date

It was about a month ago. Time goes by so fast. Things had been going well, but he made a mistake and when I called him out on it, he decided to run away. Well, it wasn't that simple. This is what happened. We had had 2 casual dates. No kissing yet. The third date was unusual. It was a holiday weekend, so I met him out on the beach. I was a bit nervous about the whole setting, as every aspect of it led me to believe he was ready to get everything from me that night. Call me whatever, but I wasn't ready for kissing, let alone sex. By the end of the date, he was drunk, I was not. I walked him to his hotel room and left. He was in disbelief and confused. He seemed to think I was going to stay. It wasn't by far the ideal scenario. I wasn't about to jump the gun and dive right into sex, skipping the magic of a first kiss that I wasn't even ready to give. Especially not to a drunk man. It all stopped abruptly after that last encounter. Shame? Hardship dealing with rejection? He didn't get his sex so he's not interested? I don't know.

Welcome to my blog though ;)

*All the names have been changed.

  2. Paola's right in a way, a one night stand guy will never be with you on the right way or on the long run... let me explain... he might be interested in you that night... maybe he was drinking or found you interested and sexy and just wanted to get laid... but the women set who get a piece of the action not the guy so if you agree on going all the way and he never calls you back the girl gets her action somewhere else..., a real relationship is not based on looks or sex it´s more the bonding with the right person... well I guess I got al mixed up hahaha but what I'm trying to say is that not all guys will go all the way even if the girl wants it bad =) well on my case I really have to get into the girl to go all the way, because for me is more of making love and not just f...ing so if the girl doesn't arouse me from all angles I do reject her in the case that she wants it :)

  3. I know. I hate rules, especially for stuff like that. I abide some and break so many more. More in the whole abiding and breaking of rules, you end up playing the game. I am still deciphering a lot of it. But I am holding on and enjoying the hunt all at the same time.

    About the one night stand, I think he was investing a lot of effort for it to be a one night stand. Casual sex maybe. He could have been looking for a fuck buddy. One thing is true. I did try to still talk to him after that. He then, didn't put much effort. So I quit. If he is going to base our entire dating process on the fact that I didn't put out on the third date, then I figured he didn't deserve me.
