@Zodiac Dracula Yes thank you so much! I actually just got great news the other day that i don't need surgery after all! I started taking it easy on my knees, other stretches and physical therapy and rest and taking things like glucosamine has been helping tremendously! I have already lost close to 80lbs but i definitely need to lose some more and well just continue my treatment and most likely won't need any surgery. I know of the dangers of surgery and always try to find alternatives. I only had 1 doctor out of the multiple I've seen out here recommend it and it was a doctor with close ties to the US. But all Mexican doctors offer better alternatives and treatment. Right now everything I'm taking is organic and natural and it's working wonders and was all prescribed by a surgeon. Anyways thanks again i already follow many of the procedures you mentioned and yeah at the end of the day there is no magic pill just patience and doing the right thing. 🙂

Hey Jose, very well said. And to add on to your high opinion of Mexican girls, it's that they are not afraid to show you that they are interested in knowing you, as it's natural to do. It's a great feeling when a girl smiles at you and says "Hola!" ...and it makes it easier to approach them. Back in the states that's considered to be an old-fashioned, anti-feminine sign of desperation, or even just some chick looking for sex...hence the reason relationships are so f'd up back home. And thank you for sharing real and important information...it's good stuff! Peace.

Excellent topic and video Jose. Yes as an American I can say through experience that dating in the states is a monster especially with my generation and younger. Not to say that there are no good women in America but it is very slim. I met my girlfriend and soon to be wife in Mexico and the experience and love is like no other I came across.

Love the green screen. I'm married so..but I agree, the way society is in the U.S. it makes it harder for men (that's what she said) to date or find a real partner, tell me if I am wrong but I think women in Mexico feel free to be what they want and still be a woman, they still want family and still take care of their husbands but let a man be a man and not emasculate him, just as the men there respect their wives, it can still be found in the U.S. but it's just uncommon now.

I think you may see a difference in younger generation compared to a bit older generation in both men and women, their expectations and even cultural changes. It may have happened a bit slower in a place like Mexico that is heavily Catholic influenced still. I'm happy you found your person there and wish you many years of happiness.

This was a VERY NICE video Jose. I really enjoyed your purple hair & beard and the blue/green screen with all the homes as you drove by; very enjoyable content and I enjoyed your story of love and respect for Christian. Very nice. I also love the culture of Mexico and Central America; the family unit. And the food; you know, you should be selling hamburgers or hotdogs with chili or sauerkraut outside at the edge of your driveway; why not? Everybody else is and you are a good cook. Think about it; maybe it's about time people came to you for something good to eat. I'll bet your neighbors would love it. The idea is making me hungry! And it would give you more time to rest your knee. The other thing I really enjoyed was how everybody had pride in their home; as a master gardener, I love to see how people landscape their yards. Question: Where was that neighborhood? It was very nice.

I love hearing and seeing how you are in your relationship with Christian, she appears to have a lot of the same qualities I have, I am strong, want to see women succeed and be treated equally, and also like that i’m more interdependent than anything and love the latino family bond, and I love that you allow her to be who she is. I know that this was catered to the wonderful men out there but I was curious if the roles were reversed, do u think a Mexican man would be open to those same qualities in a woman, who wants to be part of his world and culture etc but is strong and has her own life/interests going on? I am curious because I am strong but I still believe that I have all those loving, emotional open qualities Christian has and I mean no offense, I know women have come a long way but alot of men here seem to think that I no longer want to be seen or treated like a woman just because I work hard know who I am what I want and don’t think a man should be the only thing in your world, and I get frustrated...sometimes I think that whole concept of being gentle and feminine and loving isnt even a thing here anymore especially for a woman who knows when its time to hold her own! Wow im sorry if that was long LOL I’m just curious to hear ur opinion if i have one. Thanks for another great video Jose!

Well all I can say is that i have seen many success stories in reverse as well and all you can do is come out here and try.

But like I said all you can do is come out here and try and see how it works for you

No 22 year old wants to be with a dirty old man unless you plan on being her sugar daddy. With that being said you better have more than just your social security check other wise there are plenty of other single retirees out there that would love to hang out with you and play some shuffle board.
