    They get in the way when you want to go back to the room for a few days.

    Start your spitting in Robert's direction. He's a big target.

    I've mongered all over the world, virtually every trip without a wingman. You will be fine.

    Re: solo trip

    I always go solo. It has never been a problem meeting people to hang with. To me it seems better to have friends in town rather than a wing, people to hang with and freedom when I want to do my own thing.

    I am coming down on 5/9 so if you are feeling lonely, message me and we can go look at putas together.

    Re: solo trip

    There are advantages to traveling with wings and advantages traveling solo.

    More than half of my trips have been solo. One of my current wings I met on a previous trip while traveling solo.

    If you take enough trips it's only a matter of time before a wing looses his job, gets married (yeah I know) or something else happens to cause one to cancel. It just happens sometimes. I planned my last trip with two wings from a previous trip and according to dates that we all agreed on and both canceled--not for no pussy reasons, but it happens.

    When traveling solo it's cool because everyone you talk to is someone new that you're getting to know. Now that you know you're going solo just think of all the shit that you can get into that you don't have to worry about others agreeing with you on. Just get your mind wrapped around the idea of having a great trip and hell with the canceled one.

    Re: solo trip

    For the past 5 years I only roll solo.

    Eat when I want, venture off when I want, fuck when I want, move around islands when I want and on and on. Making temp friends to fill the void if needed is easy and they are easy to discard without regret if your plans differ.

    Looking back at all the times a wingman fucked up my plans or the other way around it's just not worth it too me.

    Re: solo trip

    Looks like my ISOC bro's have restored confidence! a lot of good points made! I have been held back many times because of wingmen. just got in touch with Rick this morning it looks like I'm gonna give Sosua Suites a try based on the recommendations! 275 a week is smooth.

    It is both. You can't beat the price if you are on Dr. Rosen!

    Not only is it cheaper, it's bigger, and the customer service you get from Rick goes way above and beyond what you will get anywhere.


    Unless of course your talking to mikelodge.

    I think it's both. New Garden is $400+ per week (for the old wing, new wing is probably closer to $500), Sosua Suites is $305 - for a full apartment with kitchen, and free airport pickup. New Garden maybe has a nicer pool, but that's probably about it.

    That never happens when I dine with you now, ever since passing chicas do not distract you any longer. Your oxygen tube and catheter are your only distractions these days.
    Enjoy it while you can.

    Are you trying to say I am getting fat? I guess I can't argue with you on that.

    If you're eating with a chick, figure out what she wants before the waiter comes, and order for her. Tell her that's what men do when they are true gentlemen.

    I've got a news flash for you: most of the girls have no idea what they're looking at on a menu.

    They don't have a clue between chicken cordon bleu or wiener schnitzel. NOT.A.CLUE. They always pick camarones, because it's the only expensive thing on the menu that they recognize.

    So, the best way to handle that?

    If she selects something expensive, just ask " Te gusta picante? Eso tiene picante" and make a fanning motion with your mouth.

    Repeat until she settles on something she likes, then you place the order for her with the waiter.
    If you think it's love try not paying in the morning..
