Apartment hunting / visits
TIPS.
From my experience (been here 9 wks now), I have had to firstly go through the hassle of finding the physical door, getting the apartment no (difficult to wait outside in the winter), then you are in. Hoping that your timing is good and girl number is max. Fri, Sat, Sun 6-9 pm are good periods.
I found it easier to go with someone, preferably someone who can talk Russian and relax and distract the girls. This allows you to properly check out a girl physically, which is difficult when they are all staring at you!!
Its difficult to hang around long enough to assess their personalities so buy the overpriced drink and / or ask to smoke a ciggie. Creating more hanging around time.
Take all their names down, secretly noting the one you like.
Within 15 to 30 minutes, your work is done and you must leave or take a girl.
I have got used to doing this, telling the mamasan that I prefer to call a girl to my apartment than fuck on site. Which is actually the truth.
Unfortunately this valuable info may only be relevant for a short period as the girls lives and situations change so quickly. But it can save money on those punts when a crap girl arrives at your apartment and its an average 2 k wasted.
I have also found that a lot of mongers are too attached to their 'finds' to share this info. Lots of them seem to be looking for a perfect girlfriend, whether they are clear about it or not. This is perfectly normal in humans and I have no problems with it.
Personally, the way I see it is like this. Her pussy and attention is rarely exclusive to one person. So getting too involved will only result in pain upon discovery of her other lovers, local or foreign. Its easier said than done of course.
P.S. Get used to google translate, and if you're lucky / social enough, offer to pay a young Ukrainian guy, anyone that you may chat too, up to 500, to just go with you, to these apartments. I pay mine 500 for 4 hrs of visits, he's fucking useless with girls LOL, a total beta, but he's honest. And hopefully a long term friend.
