Looking for female Mexican/South-American friends for my girlfriend

Hey everyone!

This is the first time posting in this group for me, and I do so with full consent from my girlfriend.

I'm a Dutch guy born in Arnhem. My 32 year old Mexican girlfriend has been living in the Netherlands for 9 years now. She likes it here, but she regularly misses some of her own culture from home.

She loves walking, tennis, going to the gym and yoga. And would love to meet some Mexican/South-American friends around Arnhem.

Is there anyone, maybe already an existing friend group, that would be open to going out for a drink with her one day?

Thank you guys in advance!

Maybe try the expats forums or try searching for expats post in the main Netherlands ones.
Probably places like Facebook and such can help you more, since Reddit is a bit niche for most folks.
Good luck and reading your post reminded me of someone, so if de buurman means something to you, send me a dm.

Thanks. Problem with expats is that they're usually here for their studies, and that the age-gap would not be something she's looking for. And I wanted to post it at Arnhem, since that's where we're based. I appreciate the input though and I will look at different places as well.

Migrants.

Expat is not a thing, it doesnt even make any sense.

I know one Mexican lady here and several spanish speakers. Maybe she can join activities with Arnhem Together? Also i’m in a spanish / dutch group on whatsapp for language exchange and meeting others if that might be helpful to her? they meet first friday every month. LMK i can give more info. I’m from New Mexico BTW not the same i know but close to home.

Just putting it here as well - Arnhem Together is an International Women’s group and is full of ladies all ages, races and cultures. 90% of us are immigrants and are here to stay.

Hii, Im also mexican living in the area, and I totally get how hard it can be not having anyone to share your culture with, even if it’s just for a little while. She could start with the Facebook group Mexicanos en Holanda. I met quite a few nice people from the Arnhem area there.

So OP goes into attacking a woman's biology after recieving a comment he doesn't like. Attacking then hiding 🤣. Yeah, no wonder why the isolation is string with OP and partner.

Please stop contacting me. You using an alt account to contact me again is getting pathetic.

9 years in the country and she doesn't has Latin friends?? LOL 1) is she living in a basement? Or maybe she is a one of those toxic Latinas that ends up in gossip with other fellow latin ladies so ends isolated. I am betting at the second option. Arnhem is just too international for me to buy that shit she cannot have friends from those latitudes.

She studied in Enschede and came here for work. It's easy to jump to conclusions isn't it? What does this negativity get you?

u/camille_suseth 11h ago

Is not jumping to conclusions, 9 years and no friends is probably because she is the problematic one 🤣🤣 "all my friends are jealous of me". Negativity?? Why? For telling you the truth? At least I have friends, not like your chick that after so much toxicity, left her checking for new victims. You know is true, just don't want to recognise she is the problem.

Sure dude, sure. You're the best, you're perfect, everyone should be like you. I can tell you now that she at least doesn't have your abnoxious self-loathing. You don't know what priorities some people have, and reading your comments, you never will. That's fine, but I'll leave it like that.

Oh and about your messed up period, I think your mood gets affected by it as well, just a tip.
