Again, she may live in Lleras but how do you know she doesn't date gringos regularily and have one paying for her pad. This is just an example of what I'm getting at. There are plenty of hookers and prepagos who live in Poblado and the higher end parts of town amongst common folk.
My good friend who goes to bogota regularily was dating a tv / actress. Who do you think paid for her pad...her clothes etc... He is ugly as sin, can't speak a word of spanish and makes tenderman seem young. All he was is a deposit. The girl in this case is not a hooker he met her through an upscale colombian living abroad. But she might as well be. A girl like this one may very well hope t be with a younger foreigner.
Think about it, ask yourself why she would go out with you? Maybe shes lower in the looks department than yourself for example.
Maybe the girl got into the nicer areas by having dated a narco but amongst the upper class people she doesn't really fit in.
If you met her on colombiancupid shes on the gringotrail as is.
You may have met her through your social circle which enabled you higher value. There are a zillion possible reasons. Heck maybe you are her perfect 10.
I think people may do better in Peru for example because the guys are worse looking than elsewhere as the average gringo is rating goes up.
Generally speaking though, as you improve in language you will be less likely to be banging the hookers, sluts ,green card chasers.
Maybe you have some sort of hidden value.
Internation from what I recall your from Miami and have lived extensively in Brazil as well as travelled a fair bit. You probably have great stories which when communicated were a big advantage. You also probably were atleast able to communicate and get your point accross. Its a marginal scale game. Not linear persay. The difference in going from 0-80 is far more than 95-100. Accent isn't an issue its more being able to get the point accross and being able to understand whats being said to you. You may be able to use portuguese to understand much of what is said to you whereas the typical speaker with the same amount of vocab can't understand a word thats being said because they can't process it quickly enough.
When you feel you are swooping high end girls though you may be an 8 swooping an 8 without realizing it. This is far different than say a 5 trying to move up to 9s as your value is already far more in line. You have to make up less in other areas. This can easily happen when one has latina fever. It happens to me all the time. I think some girl is banging and my buddy who happens to like slim, pale redheads will think im an alien.
My guess is you are probably above average in looks, understand when spanish is verbally spoken to you far more than a typical speaker with the same level of knowledge (which is huge, as this is probably the most difficult and most important thing), had time on your side (i.e. weren't breezing through town on a weekend trip etc.)
People generally score in line with their own looks.
There are outliers in every example.
If I went to Sao Paolo right now (I don't know any portuguese beyond Bom dia and what I've seen in Brazilian cinema which is fantastic) i'd surely be scoring atleast 2 points lower than I would in a spanish speaking country with hot girls on average. I couldn't imagine pulling higher end girls. With 1000+ words maybe I could bridge that gap and then be at 1.5 points lower then with 5000 1 etc. But I'd certainly be hitting lower than in a 2nd/3rd world country where spanish is spoken and there are many attractive women. I picked Sao Paolo because the girls will have higher value and there will be more higher value guys than if I picked a place thats been spoken here like Minas Gerais.
In your report you mentioned a 9+ hanging out with your hungarian goofy roommate. Think about why a 9+ would hang around with him. A 9+ is just about guaranteed to be able to attract a high end cat in her own city. She probably had something offsetting her looks be it a history, poor etc. Heck, she probably wouldn't be caught dead with a guy who didn't fully fit in in her city otherwise. If your Hungarian buddy was a 9 then it would hardly be surprising but from what I recall reading he wasn't close to it.
Gringos do tend to date better looking girls than back home when they go abroad. They simply are bringing more value to the table than back home. If I bring 40k a year to the phillipines or 40k a year in Texas, In one place I live an exceptional lifestyle in the other I live very moderately. But when you get to really high end girls, they have no need for gringos as there are plenty of equally well off and fun guys in their own countries.
Volk being a colombian will certainly agree with my explanation of the 9 and your hungarian buddy.
If Fisto was with a 9 none of us would even bat an eye. If Jabbathehut started getting 9's there'd have to be an explanation beyond hes from gringoland or he has nice skin.
I'm speaking from my experience with learning language and game and I have been able to pretty accurately monitor as my trips are every may-september for a few years now. My experiences may be atypical. I believe roosh made a blog post back in the day outlining a similar theory to what I've suggested.
