At the end of my stay.... now he wanted to be just friends/penpals to get my email adress and telephone number, so I gave it to him as I had lots of penpals from around the world before and was curious to find out about other cultures and about how people live.... All he wrote was again the same: "te amo"..... I was bombarded with emails demanding me to visit him at my own cost.... he immediately answered that I should buy him a ticket.... "No you can, you are rich..." That was it, he couldn't believe I was not rich.
Then he called again and asked to call back. I didn't. Then he called again accusing me that I don't want to call and he is spending his last 5 dollars on the call.....


... I felt pity for him seeing how little they earn there and didn't want to be guilty for him losing his job...
Please excuse me for breaking down your report, but I think the above sentences are quite typical for these guys and shows that...

- someone who is interested in people and their culture is easily exploited by sankies;

- people who are insecure and/or unexperienced in dealing with other races are prime targets for sankies;

- sankies have nothing to lose and much to gain from foreigners and thus use any method (as dishonest and unpolite it may be) to reach their goal;

- have been conditioned to this behaviour by foregoing easy 'kills';

- that sankies work in a favourable environment in which growing numbers of female tourists come for sex with local men (30% on their first visit; 26 % come back more often for more);

- sankiism has become a phenomenon in DR tourism and an accepted way of generating Dominican income;

BTW, welcome to the board.
