Potz4prez Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 Does anyone have any insight? I just recently started talking to a girl around my age (25) from Colombia (been in the states for ~14 years). I asked her out for drinks sunday night, but she was going to be out of town and instead she invited me along to a festival. It was her, her sister and her BF, and that BF's sister and her BF - all Colombian except for one Mexican dude. So basically family - two couples than me and her. I also met some of her other female friends there as well. Her sister would occasionally have to talk me into dancing with a "Go! She wants to dance with you!" or something like that. I don't want to jump straight to the friendzone conclusion, because I'll wait to see what her response is the next time I ask her out. It's just that while it seems odd, maybe I'm missing some cultural context?
frankvega Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 with Latinos Especially Colombians dancing is part of their culture it is so engraved in there culture that it literally means nothing when a women dances with you and should not be interpreted as she is interested. The only exception to this rule is if her husband or boyfriend was present. That would mean that she is very interested in you. But I assure you if her husband or boyfriend where present you would not have a chance in hell of dancing with her.
Assasda Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 I dont understand the question or the conundrum that he's facing
frankvega Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 He is probably infatuated that a pretty Colombian danced with him at a family get together. I would too. I am not Colombian but where I live Colombian women are considered one of the most cultured, educated and friendliest people here in south Florida.
Ruby Slippers Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 It sounds like she likes you. Why are you assuming she doesn't?
Author Potz4prez Posted August 31, 2014 Author Posted August 31, 2014 It sounds like she likes you. Why are you assuming she doesn't? Haha, I'm not. I'm just used to the typical: ask a girl out, just you and girl go on date, follow with second date, etc. This was my first time out with her since meeting her in person, and the whole meet-the-family-and-friends bit threw me for a loop.
Joaquin Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 In my experience latina girls demand a lot more respect than your average girl Show your interest in a gentlemanly and straight forward way. 1
angel.eyes Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 I agree with Ruby Slippers. She had a conflict, but tried to spend time with you anyway. Ask her out again on a real date. See if she'll date you one-on-one. 1
