While I'm learning stuff, what'd you say to the Gendarmerie to get em to put the dirty envelope away? Note to self: crosses Italy off bucket list. I said something like "Je suis tres desole" and handed over the money and didn't bat an eyelash when they didn't give me change. I think they must have also asked for my driver license and I gave them my California one and had to translate it because I remember a conversation about hazel eyes because in the US it's kind of a catchall term for a lot of colors and they don't have that in France. I was just super polite and used the little French that I speak to at least convey that I was trying and not just being all stupid American about it. It was kind of scary. They surrounded me on motorcycles and forced me off the auto-route, which given my limited experience with interactions with law enforcement seemed totally over the top for the minor speeding I was doing, so at first I had no clue what was going on. It could have been totally legit -- they do have on the spot fines in France, but it just seemed totally sketch being they were keeping the money in a dirty envelope and wouldn't give change. Aside from surrounding my car and escorting me off the road and into a trailer and taking my money they were super nice to me. I went to Italy last year and really loved it. We didn't get pulled over at all, but we've been getting crazy traffic tickets in the mail recently. Our cars had German tourist plates so the tickets are in Italian and German and it takes a long time to translate them because they are long and full of legal shit. But Italy is really beautiful and I wouldn't avoid it just because of that. I did some reading once we started getting tickets and it sounds like some areas are total speed traps, especially if you have tourist plates, and driving should be avoided. We didn't have any in person LEO interactions. I'm white, but had an African American traveling companion. Most of the places we went in Italy it was like if we lost him we could just look for the only black person in the area, but it didn't seem like he was getting stared at or treated poorly.

Neurochick March 4, 2018 Share March 4, 2018 (edited) Shay sounds like someone who's drank too much whiskey and smoked too many cigarettes; she's either a drunk or damn close to being one. I don't like Alejandro because he reminds me of men I used to see a lot of when I was a teenager, guys who think they're God's gift to women; and his pants are too tight, but he makes Ashley feel good, so I guess it's all good. Mercedes needs to stop trying to convert people; if she wants to do that, she should become a missionary. Nakita needs to chill out; she's as bad as Mercedes, too damn shallow, "is my booty gonna fit in this seat?" and "I've got three bundles of hair," ugh, where's YOUR hair woman?

sATL March 5, 2018 Share March 5, 2018 sorry for joining the party late.. my interest in this show was high at the beginning - I guess to see Rome attractions, to see if women could , I guess find a healthy companion ship in a man, and if any American men are watching, to find new ways to romance a women. I would admit I was a Gina Neely fan and was sadden when they divorced - but she seems to be floundering every since (bouncing on a few shows b/c she lost weight)- kinda going though a mid-life crisis. She doesn't like people to refer or remind her of "down home with the neeleys" but to be honest - who is she otherwise? She is a current celebrity of what? She's a little too motherly for this group and maybe would do better in a US version of this show. I think Mercedes can find what she is looking for, I think she probably has been looking in the wrong places, Most who are deeply religious and want a religious person meet them in religious places. If she is in Rome, surely she would have better luck near/at a church than just cruizing the street. And trying to "convert" a man - good luck with that . RE- the rest - I tend to loose interest and track. agree that one that drinks, who is also a chef, might need more help in putting down the alcohol and Rome isn't the place to "go on the wagon:.

Anyway, I like her Ray Romano looking beau but looks like he fucks up his chance with her next week. Mercedes, you might want to remember the scene in Coming to America, where the barber was telling Akeem to go to church if he wanted to find a good Christian girl…..how bout you do that to get your husband?! Whoever she gets will have to accept her high maintenance issues though. I remember as a child hating it when the old church members would try to convert me; all I wanted was my fried chicken platter and to go home, leave me alone you old battleax! I liked Nakita’s date….however, as a big gal you don’t want your mate to be big too, just sayin’ from a sexual point of view. He was sexy though, liked the cigarillos he kept smoking and I liked the way he asked her to kiss him. Alejandro looks like the Hamburglar, not attractive at all. But I like the way he treats Shay in spite of her ghetto behind. Really, who in the bluedilly fuck asks for dick pics on the first date.

red12 March 12, 2018 Share March 12, 2018 (edited) Mercedes lies to everyone including herself. She is a con who wants to present the image of a Christian girl who falls down, but gets back up and is just looking for a relationship. She actually is a woman who wants to get laid by a black man with money who speaks enough Jesus to pray before dinner, go to church on Easter, feel temporarily guilty enough about all of the premarital sex they will be having to marry her and go to the occasional alter call. I don't care about her criteria. I just want her to honestly admit what they are and tell the team. As my g-ma used to say, "Why lie when the truth'll do?". She was pissed at Diane because Mercedes does not intend to be spoken to honestly. You are supposed to tolerate whatever BS she hands you and be thankful for a breakthrough if she sheds a tear and move on. She initially wanted to leave the date because she thought her date was the one who ratted her out and didn't want to deal with him. When she interrupted Ashley and Alejandro and Ashley actually came out to talk to her, I was like "WTH?" The only person who has developed even slightly during this trip is Nakita. The rest are exactly the same person they were when they started this "journey". Diane and team should just drop the pretense and admit they are tour guides for desperate women who want to see Rome with the possibility of meeting a few Italian guys in a controlled environment.

Irlandesa March 13, 2018 Author Share March 13, 2018 (edited) So is sex talk at the dinner table an "in" thing now? First there was Shay. Then there weas Gina's guy asking her if she'd sleep with him. And then there was Nakita's new guy asking how she likes having sex. It was weird but even weirder was Nakita's "you're going to have to find out and explore what I like." She could also just be adult and just tell him---but not at the dinner table. That'd be weird and she'd be right to say no to that. Overall, even though he was a smooth operator, this week he felt like a real person and like they were having a real conversation. I don't get Nakita's worries about how it'd "all work out" with the fact that they live in different countries. If that bothered, her, this experience shouldn't be with her. I get that there's only a week left but the whole trip was only supposed to last 4-5 weeks. I wish Gina would just break up with her guy. They make me so uncomfortable. I respect that it takes her a while to feel it with a guy (although again, they were never going to have more than five weeks) but he's clearly wanting to push things further and faster than she does. They're on different paths and I can't see them bridging their gap before she leaves. But it even goes beyond that like when she chastised him for asking the guide questions. I question whether she likes him at all. Just put a stop to it. Ashley and Alejandra made me equally uncomfortable with their making out at the dinner table. Oh how awkward for Gina and Olivero(?). I'm torn on the whole Diane and Mercedes fight. Mercedes is sneaking around. And she is a bit of a mess in what she's attracted to. For instance, she keeps comparing the men to her father and how they might remind her of him but she's also admitted that her father was basically a ho who may have treated her well but did not treat his partners well. But Diane is infantalizing her. I'm still loving Emiliano. I didn't care that Shay ordered a hamburger. He did tell her they had a good one there.

That guy is too young and handsome to be thinking about settling down. I hope he gives her the orgasm of her life so far, because all he really wants to do is flirt and fuck. Plus, what the hell does he have to offer? He sells men's clothing. Unlike Kwame, probably hasn't pursued an education. Speaking of Kwame, after all of that he sure did play you, Mercedes. I also was struck by his taking the Lord's name in vain. I wasn't offended but wondered why she wasn't since she's such a holy roller. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/65181-to-rome-for-love-general-discussion/page/2/#findComment-4159348

Maybe I just know people who are slutty! I was looking on her bio because I was curious how old her kids were because I only halfway pay attention to the show and she is only 37, I thought she was at least mid 40s.

The decision to wait for Mercedes*, Ashley** and Nakita*** baffle me****, especially since they allegedly came to Rome for love. I'm not saying it's impossible that they could engage in a celibate love affair and have it turn into something real but I bet their odds would increase if sex were part of the relationships. *Kwame played Mercedes. Or Mercedes played herself. He wanted her so he told her he'd do church. She wanted him so she told herself she believed him. **Although I think Ashley strikes me as an "everything but" girl. If he's sleeping over every night, like it appears as if he is, I suspect they're doing stuff. ***Just what Nakita's kids want to hear--they need to approve of her boyfriend so she can get some. ****I'm letting Gina off the hook because she was pretty straight forward that her date never revved her engine even though she liked him. And I think Shay would have slept with her first guy but her second guy is the one who is taking it slowly....perhaps on purpose.

I would know he was in it for a good time and still jump into that with both feet. I didn't even initially find him that attractive, but he sneaks up on you. Except lose the smoking. And don't tell me you love me after just a few dates. Otherwise?

I'm sure her daughters just loved watching their mama doing the old-woman Wobble. Lliked the red pantsuit though. Old woman?

Wow, whoda thought that Alejandro would still be seeing Ashley? She must have put it on him! Was disappointed in Shay’s decision….that’s right girl, go back to the Peanut and nem type of guys that you can drink under the table. Went Aww to the breakup of Nikita and Alberto, hope she got her bow-chicka-wow-wow on before heading back to the States. And I agree, it sounded like Alberto was referring to his ex-wife as the ex; I would have gotten that confirmed as he said it, not ten minutes later. Now, where were those fine men during the course of the series? The one Gina was flirting with and a few at the ball were definitely hot and should have been on the show. Will there be a new season with new people or was this it? Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/65181-to-rome-for-love-general-discussion/page/2/#findComment-4177217

Vixenstud March 27, 2018 Share March 27, 2018 (edited) Cheewhiz, see my profile pic? Don't make me come after you, that's my man! Ooh! Didn’t think of this….just finished watching Wendy Williams, who said all she could think of when seeing Alejandro was ‘Green Card’! Never thought of it at all. I did give side-eye when, after a vulnerable Ashley mentioned the word love a few times, all he could respond was how happy he was with her. Heh, he was ‘happy’ to grind her out after seeing her in that dinner outfit.
