ok, ill tell you the story, im equadorean/american (neigbor to your friend), also have dark hair, dark eyes, normal tone skin, not dark not light and i currently live here in florence for the last 4 years.
when i left the states i thought it was going to be the same, i thought it was going to be easy for me to find guys who find me attractive. im naturally thin, have a normal south american face and in the states i recall, its wasnt hard to find a cute guy to date. so i thought it woudl be the same...but it wasnt!! surprise surprise!!...and i began to realize why...
here in italy, florence, rome, milan, ecc....almost ALL of the women are beautiful, and about 85% of them have a real good figure, even taller than me (im 5'5''), all slim, all dark hair, ligh eyes, tan skin, and many many of them have the blue eyes and black hair...so! my thought-to-be good looks was 'blended' in...and from my experience going to college here meeting new people, ive seen girls at college, who are like, wow! really really pretty and what do the italian guys do??? nothing. they just talk, walk away, no flirting, nothing, and i thought, why is that??? when i was in college back in the states, if there was a pretty girll all the guys would jump all over her. so my theory got to be, that here in italy, having SOO many beautiful woman around, the italians are use to it and cant notice how LUCKY they are to have pretty woman around, being their own sisters, brothers, gays, whatever, they all come attractive (and yes gay guys are cute too!! you have to visit a gym!!).
SO...the idea of being pretty, being thin, being tanned, dark hair, dark eyes, its no big deal for the italians, yeah ofcourse there are some that would recognize a south american and her beautiful values, but...lets just put it this way....they are more recoginzed in the states than in italy.
:) thats my theory!
oh and about you going to spain, yeah i know people there speak more english, but here in italy, only very very few people speak english..sadly :( but its true. |
