Just got back from 3 weeks sarging in Addis Ababa.
Got my flag on the 3rd day there from previous online game.
I fclosed 6 girls: 2 from afro-introductions, 1 from facebook, 1 I met in the stairs of Edna Mall, 1 on the terrace of La Parisienne (Bole Road), and one in the courtyard of a restaurant (she was having injera lunch with a friend).
I must have seen about 30 girls on a date (I've been quite selective), most from afro-introductions (usually lower classes but some middle class university girls) and facebook (I added tons of girls before I went). But usually I shortened the dates to about 10 minutes if I didn't like the girls, telling them I was in a hurry but I would call them a few days later (not to be too rude). There are photographers shops everywhere in Addis so the pictures are usually much better than the reality.
Girls are sweet and friendly. Many beautiful ones if you like this type. Their faces have finer features and they have lighter skin as sub-Saharian Africans but their bodies are not as good, on average.
Girls are eager to meet foreigners and they will give up their numbers easily.
But then... the problems come...
FIRST OF ALL: The men...
The biggest assholes I've seen in 50 countries or such...
All passive aggressive cockblocking douchebags, you will never feel comfortable anywhere in public as a white man with a black girl and it will ruin your vacations mood :-)
They will literally change positions in their seats all around you to stare at the girl and make her feel as a whore... Not cool.
The result is that although women really want to be with a (handsome) young foreign guy, they are strongly discouraged to date one by social pressure. They will give you their numbers easily but then it's gonna be hard to actually meet (except the low class girls) and the actual date will usually feel very uncomfortable anywhere in public (it is a bit the case in Other African countries but not at all to the extent of Ethiopia).
In conclusion, I won't go back to Ethiopia even though I like the type of girls: it's not fun. I was very happy to leave the place
Anyways, if you're there and want to meet girls, I can give you the names of a few places where you will feel more or less ok, depending if it's crowded or not:
Cafe restaurant BON on Bole road (too crowded on weekends but good during the week)
The Bar of the Intercontinental hotel (Casanjes), I also like the pool and the food there and the wifi is very fast
Outside of Axum hotel there is one table that is quite good for a date.
“Pizza hut”, in area 22, is kind of Ok for a date but many young asshole Ethiopian guys are there.
Nightlife
Nightlife sucks. The only place I found interesting was Black Rose, on the second floor of Boston day Spa, on bole road. It's a bar lounge, with people dancing a bit sometimes.
Alizee jazz club could be a good place for a date but the music is so loud you have to shout at a girl's ear to communicate.
Restaurants:
Good food at Pizzeria Antica
Pizzeria Deli Roma (on Bole road)
Rico's restaurant, in front of Getu Commercial Center (15 yards down the road of New York cafe)
Axum Hotel restaurant
Gazebo Restaurant (by the museum): extremely good salads (bad pizzas)
Thanks Lika, this report sounds more realistic than the OP report. We have a large Somalian/Ethopian contingent in Canada and they rarely socialize outside there circles. The men are big cockblockers and the women are scared of them.
I will crack a Somalian/Ethopian this summer, mark my words. But I agree with you, you just gotta isolate them and pound the shyt out of them..
