Dating in Guadalajara
Guadalajara is the most underrated dating city in Mexico. Less foreign saturation than CDMX or Playa, strong local scene in Chapultepec and Providencia, real culture, real food. The men who do well treat it like a smaller, friendlier CDMX.
- Guadalajara dating runs on Tinder, Bumble and Instagram, in that order.
- Voice notes once warm. Spanish if you can.
- Close inside three days from match.
- Respect time. Do not perform a character.
