I'm writing this more as therapy then an informative post but you all can take out of it what you want. I recently had a conversation with a fellow monger who is lucky (?) enough to get to TJ more then I can. He, more then most, is privy to all of my actions there and knows the emotions and non-emotions I have about the place and the chicas there. He recently spoke with an amiga of a certain chica (Smith, for those of you keeping score!) and was informed that she was not in GDL as she said she was but was "vacationing" in a Southern Mexico resort town for a few weeks with a novio/amigo/monger. It welled up within me emotions that I thought I could suppress...but more importantly...it reinforced an observation I've had that I want to lay out here. It's nothing new to the mongering world, but even though my family & friends all know about my trips to TJ (and why!), this is something I can't share with them. These chicas wear many faces. More concisely, individual chicas are many different chicas to many different mongers. Smith for example: to my good friend, she's a sex kitten who he's seen "grow up" in the zona starting at HK in it's heyday to the "more adult" version now at AB. He has had many conversations with her and takes what she says seriously. I know her as a sexy shrewd businesswoman who loves sex (with males & females) but I wouldn't trust her even if she said the sun was going to rise the next morning. This is not only because of the times she has flaked on me...but also just from the many conversations I've had with her. I know she's been "burned" a few times by mongers/amigos and in the ecosystem of the zona...she's developed a pretty thick skin. "Who is she" to her vacationing partner? Jealous? You bet I am! But, would the "Smith" vacationing with me be the same "Smith" vacationing with this other guy? No, probably not! That's where the lesson is somewhere. Love, lust, companionship, & friendship are all great things to strive for in life...just how realistic are they to strive for in TJ? Unless you're willing to devote as much time and energy in a relationship with a TJ chica (puta) as you would in a "normal" relationship...you will never be sure of what you're getting.
