OKay.....so I just spent 2 weeks in the Dominican and I met this totally amazing guy!

He claims to "love" me and i have been very scepticle about it up until I read all of these reviews.....now I think that he may mean what he says. I told him that I can only be his friend right now because I want to be cautious about the situation....however, I am going back to see him in April and we will see how it goes.

If anyone can give me any advice I would really appreciate it!

Christine

Hola and welcome back to earth. If someone came up to you in your home town after a week and said "I love you" what would you think? You had a vacation. A great vacation now wake up. Takes time to know a person.

You didn't read those reviews very well did you? Some of those people have known their partners for a few years.

Best to say Dominican Republic or DR.

What reviews are you talking about? Can you send us the links to the reviews that have caused you to abandon your good sense and comendable caution? I certainly don't recall reading them.

If I was a young girl vacationing in the Dominican Republic and some young Dominican buck, probably an employee of the animation department in the hotel, told me he was in love with me, I would know that he was trying to get into my pants and my purse, and dreaming of getting me to take him to the US.

Please post those links.

Ken she posted under successful relationships so I split the thread because it wasn't meant for newly found love.

I have a feeling one of my posts is going to be quoted soon!

I have know Guillermo since March 2001 and we started dating August 2001....we're still together. I definitely did not make up my mind about him overnight, we have both taken our time and and we've only been engaged since December 2002 (corrected to the right year). And we haven't made any wedding plans yet!

Do you normally rush into relationships on your own soil?

P.S. When I saw the title of this thread, I was certain it was Scott again tooting his horn! Sorry Scott, but it's the first thing that crossed my mind! hahahahahaha

Ok, I understand. I knew she couldn't be referring to the zillions of threads in the archives started either by starry eyed girls or sadder but wiser girls who had earlier been starry eyed.

Cristinem, I hope you aren't calling him on the telephone. If you are, he is laughing with his buddies when he tells them about your call. Tell him that it is your belief that a guy that loves a girl will make the calls.

Also, when he tells you about a serious financial reverse, such as a sick mother, or his motor cycle got stolen, do not send money.

Finally, if he knows the dates of your return in April, don't make the mistake of surprising him by coming early. You will be the one that gets the surprise.

Christine (mine is sp. with a "K") -

where did you meet the guy? is he Dominican or a transplant?

how old are you, and what is your appearance?

You may get better advice if we knew some details.
