Yes, I bought a book of 10 massages there and never used them all before he closed. When I mentioned that to him at Circus, that I had a couple of coupons left, he laughed. I was expecting him to say, bring them here, Ill give you something of value here in exchange for those prepaid coupons I took your money for.....but no, nothing 🙄

was going to write the same thing....

One of us should drag @reader there...literally , take his brace and drag him there 😛

How many packages did you buy? btw, I'm still thinking about your comment that you'd drag yourself to the massage shops from the skytrain, the visual, I can't stop laughing 😝

Same thing happens in Brasil, Americans tipping like crazy, annoying the local clients, who outnumber the western clients.

The guy that owns circus now told me when he only owned the massage place off Convent Rd, that these types of Chinese are the ones throwing money, because it's their one trip in a lifetime and they want to enjoy it without worrying about prices....your story makes more sense, but what in the world makes sense anymore?

I never tipped a teacher, is that a custom where you grew up ?

but you're not as frugal with the boys as you are with yourself 😇

And I thought this story would be the answer to @Olddaddy quest to find a bf this year 😟

your loss....keep your wits about you, as you should anywhere and don't feed the Gremlins after midnight, tons of people go without incident.,,, Medellin seems safer than a dozen years ago, to me.

Cash is king...there is an app many use, called Nequi, to transfer money, you'd have to set up a remitly account, that have them set u to receive money from outside the country....some guys have PayPal.. but, yeah...CASH.

I could see that you replied while I was scrolling, I was already thinking of a smart ass comment , then you say something nice and ruin it all 😝

I was writing my post as yours posted, lol

And here's where we're different and I'm not in a cult....I'll call Biden out on his faults, as will most Democrats, which can't be said for people in a cult, yet deny they are cultish. He had 16 deaths during his time 13 from a suicide bomber and 3 killed by an enemy drone. Trump behaved, for Trump and did pretty good, I was impressed that he did that. However, it really comes down to the administration and what they want to do behind the scenes that worry me...I'm talking about the Republicans. You've already seen what the 6-3 majority on the supreme court is capable of......hold on to your seats for the future cases, you think it doesn't affect you. The ruling they just made, to the benefit of corporations, is taking the teeth out of dozens of government organizations like the EPA....yeah, we can trust big business to not pollute and keep clean water and air?? My head is spinning from what can come from this....safe food, doesn't matter either we can trust them not to worry about profits and do the right thing. This isn't you and I against each other....this is what the US was like when there was no child labor laws, no OSHA, no 40 hr work week, no unions....our parents and grandparents fought and struggled to get the US to where it is today and people are willing to give all that up because they want THEIR guy to win. This isn't the Yankees vs the Red Sox.....is much bigger. You've been told to study history, "Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it". Look at banks, are going back to zero down/ no qualification mortgages, we've all seen that movie and know how it'll end, because we lived it. Spanish flu and Covid.....roaring 20's then and now....are we setting ourselves for the next Great Depression??? Because of everything I've mentioned and this, remember, we're not just voting for a person, it's the others behind him too.... Seth McFarland had a PERFECT analogy why to vote for Biden, you're voting for his TEAM (Administration) vs Trump's TEAM that will do everything he wants, not good in a Democracy. Please watch just 2 minutes of this video from this point...2 minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzgFE8XIVZY&t=4883s

It's not like shopping for a car or clothes......it happens when it happens, can't be forced. So many guys that love whoring around while young, realize later they aren't as young or as desirable anymore and want to "settle down", finally, because life can be boring, retired life even more so. So they expect a 20 or 30 yr old guy that's experiencing his horniest time of his life to settle down with him 🙄 Even if they do find someone "suitable" , the old whore instincts kick in on a whim when given the opportunity and cheat on their relationship, because they think they can be loyal....ha, good luck trying that. I have a bf for 6 yrs, he wanted a "only us" relationship, I told him he was searching for a pot of gold....even in hetero relationships, men are dogs (some females too). We're meant to breed (or be bred) and go out hunting for sex like animals. I explained to my bf that people confuse love and sex, two VERY different things. I LOVE pizza and could eat it 28 days a month, but every so often I want Thai food or Mexican food, no sense in depriving those cravings.....took awhile, but he totally gets it. We've traveled together and done 3 ways, went to sex clubs, or in Thailand had our own massages....no jealously and our relationship is so healthy and understanding. He works and manages our business, saves his own money, thanks me for showing him so much and we laugh a lot when people we know have relationship issues because one got caught cheating on their partner, he says...yup you were right. Love is more than sex, a good sign is that after sex, you BOTH want to be around each other still...not the "I have to go do something, I'll talk to you later" after sex hookup feeling, lol really?

Living together is the real test....imagine people together 10, 20 30+ years 😬 traveling with just friends can really test a friendship.... like @vinapu and the other board member experienced, sounds like it went well. I've been lucky with travel partners, but I have a couple of friends I'd never travel with again 😱

how long were you together and did you live together?

and whine and whine and whine......🙄

give @reader his knee braces back...how else will he get from the Skytrain to the massage shops?

agree

She was a legend 🤷‍♂️

Neither have I, only time because of offing a non-performer from bars. It's the freelancers and app guys you need to watch out for, I had a string of bad choices from DJ some years ago 🙄

I'm not concerned, Trump says the election is rigged...so that must mean Biden is going to win, because if it's rigged how can Trump win .....or if he wins, was that the rigging that was done 🤔

Or the Taxi/Uber driver does that....😉

Irony runs deep behind the Iron Curtain.....
