Among the people who read my articles, some of you are interested in knowing more about finding a nice girl in Colombia to date. And if you are serious about it, you eventually will be meeting your Colombian girlfriend’s family as you get to know her
Ideally, she will be someone who would make a great girlfriend and could perhaps be a good wife also someday
Someone who can love you forever and help raise a nice family with
After all, most of us get tired of messing around with chicks as we get older
It’s fun always but it loses some of its importance in life as we get older and want something serious
Someone we can enjoy a nice trip or experience with and then talk about that moment 5 or more years down the road
However, I’ll be honest….
It’s not easy finding a girl here in Colombia who would be a good girlfriend or wife
The reality is that there is a lot of infidelity in this country
And plenty of women who also only want to use you for your money
Others who are not serious whatsoever and are just wasting your time
So this will be one of many articles that I will dedicate to discussing different characteristics about women in Colombia who are faithful and those who are not faithful
So you can better know how to avoid the chicks who only want to use you…
And will ideally help you have a better understanding of what to look for as you spend time in this beautiful country looking for someone to spend a better life with
So what are some of the things you should look for in a girl who is high quality in Colombia?
Here’s one major tip.
I have mentioned before in another article just how important “the family” is in Colombia and all of the things you should look for in her family to make sure the relationship can work well.
However, there is more to it than that
It could be said that article was making an assumption…
Which is that she even introduced you at all to her family
In the years that I have been here in Colombia, I have noticed that there are numerous details that separate chicks who areserious from chicks who are not serious
And one of those details is very obvious
Are you even going to be meeting your Colombian girlfriend’s family?
It’s such an obviously important detail but it’s one that we don’t always think about
For example, I met a young guy here at a more touristy bar in Bogota just a month ago who said that he had been dating thiscute Colombian chick for about 9 months now
He says that they are both “boyfriend and girlfriend”
Well, that’s nice!
However, he never once met her family and he has never met her friends either
How is it that he is dating her for 9 months officially but doesn’t even know her family or friends?
When he asked her a few times to be introduced to her family, she always replies that “they will get around to it” and that“everything is slower in Colombia and takes time”
Well, that is true that things are slower in Colombia
But 9 months is obviously too long
And more importantly, a serious Colombian woman here is going to make it a priority to introduce you to her family
Because Colombian chicks tend to be a little bit more possessive and they want to make things between you very serious if they are interested in you
They want you to be hers only and one way to speed things along that way is for her to meet your family and you to meet hers
Which, by the way, if she doesn’t even show the slightest interest in your family and never asks details about them, that shows she is not as serious about you
Scary enough, this guy told me at the bar that he had been giving her money too
And they haven’t even had sex yet!
So no sex, no family but lots of money to be given to her when she needs it to help take care of her kid since she is a single mom
How is that a serious relationship?
Unfortunately, I felt the guy was being taken for a ride and tricked into sending his money to a girl who was just using him
I gave him my advice as respectfully as I could but he felt insulted when I suggested she was using him
I guess some guys dig themselves so far into a hole that they don’t even notice that they are sitting in a grave….
Anyway……
As mentioned elsewhere on my website, I had a more serious relationship with a girl in Colombia when I first spent time here in Barranquilla while studying abroad many years ago
Though she wasn’t perfect and the relationship ultimately ended, she was more serious than the girl mentioned in the previous story with the guy I met at the bar
In this case, this girl did introduce me to her family fairly quickly
About a week after we had decided to start a more serious relationship
As a funny side note, I remember her parents being stunned by seeing a gringo for the first time ever and that their daughter was dating one.
Even more stunned to see one speaking Spanish to them.
Almost the same of seeing a wild animal from a far away land speaking English to you.
That’s kinda how they were when they saw this gringo speaking Spanish when so many people down here assume we gringos don’t speak Spanish.
Anyway, her mom was nice.
Her dad was a very nice guy too. Quiet and respectful.
Later, she introduced me to a much larger portion of her family
When she decided to take me to a small town in Colombia.
It was a little bit remote but kinda close to nearby big cities so it wasn’t like it was hours away in the jungle from Leticia or anything.
And the town had just about a little over 15,000 people more or less.
We spent a little over a week there
Which, fortunately for me, I had already finished my classes while studying abroad in Colombia
So I had all the time to meet her family in this very small town
They were very nice and greeted me warmly.
The place was very laid back and I learned how much of her family lived in a more rural area of Colombia
And how she had spent a significant part of her childhood living here also
So in the end, it was a nice experience and I met a great deal of her family and a part of Colombia most never travel to
Which was pretty cool
And something any serious girl in Colombia would do if she is serious about starting a serious relationship.
Overall, meeting your Colombian girlfriend’s family and friends is obviously something you should do when looking for a serious girl.
It seems very obvious but not something we always think about
The usual things we think about are obviously details like fidelity
Either way, keep this in mind as any serious Colombian girl will emphasize greatly the family and for you to meet her familyand her to meet your family
And when you go to meet them, make sure to dress nicely with a decent shirt such as this or some nice shoes such as these
Hope this article was helpful in understanding the importance of meeting your Colombian girlfriend’s family.
