For the past 60 years I haven't noticed the world getting any hotter, forgive me for being sceptical about future predictions of doom. COVID same Sea level rises same Ozone layer same Peak oil same Over population same Famine same Drinking water same

I've got a tray of those 3.7v batteries sitting between my legs on my ebike, first hint of smoke from it and I'll be off and running. I already charge it in the front garden 'just in case'. No so worried about the house 3.2v lifepo4 battery pack sitting in my kitchen.

I used to teach in those UK council estate schools, and they were worse than the Thai government schools I've encountered. My 12yo son currently attends Thai government school in the CEP class (Chinese and English Project). Way better than any Brit highschool I ever taught in. 8kbht/term with a class size of 25.

Those trays of batteries (18650?) Started going off like firecrackers, and it all happened so quickly.

I don't see health insurance as necessary, I accept at some point in my life I will die. Hit an run got me last year while driving my m/c, 6 broken bones, collapsed lung, many cuts and bruises, total cost over 4 months (government hospital) was just over 13kbht (including physiotherapy for a month). Surprisingly completely paid for by my m/c government minimum insurance. Nobody forces a foreigner to use the most expensive private hospital.

This all seems irrelevant to me, why would anyone care about a woman's past. If you're worried about disease, get her tested (along with yourself). I've always been attracted to women in their early 30s, don't expect them to be virgins, neither am I. Yeah, I've had more than my fair share of teen virgins (I was a teen too), none of them were worthwhile

We are all acting a role, the difference being, my role is Captain Kirk, and your role is a crewman in a red shirt

I used to go to Barretto (PI), Siem Reap, Phnom Penh, Hanoi, Saigon, Da Nang every 3 months, but got tired of travelling. Too old for all that now.

I got money to spare so why not. If I didn't give it to her, how would I spend it all?

She can leave (or ask me to leave) whenever she likes. I won't be paying the mortgage if I ain't there though!

Ca08 in LINE.

My house is in the bank's name.

That price is only for tourists, everyone else pays 30bht/GM online.

The Thai law on adultery was just removed. Why not install a security camera at your CM home, you can view it on your phone from anywhere in the world.

Everywhere is safe, but enjoyable would depend on your age, fitness level and expectations. A 20yo vegan tea total backpacker wouldn't want the same as a 50yo divorcee. As a single 50yo guy on holiday in CM I found a 3 day hiking trip at Doi Inthanon worthwhile, kayaking at Wat Far Ham (50bht) group meet on Thursday 430pm, elephant care at Mae Wang river. Many ladies seem to enjoy the massage and Thai cooking courses widely available.

I've had a real wife (Brit, same age, lasted 30 years) and it was awful. I've had a pretend wife (Thai, -20 years, 15+ years) and it's been great. Pretend wife wins!

I married mine to have a kid, he's nearly 13 now.

While in the real world .... No man really wants to marry a 40yo woman for looks!

It's all about money, nothing but money. Most women will shag anyone if the material rewards are right.

The first rule of keeping your Thai gf ......... Remove her from encountering any foreigners at any time. Go and live outside tourist areas, don't take her to bars, don't introduce her to your foreign friends. Don't let her mix with other Thai ladies that have foreign partners.

Being famous also counts, especially if you can drag them around the party circuit with all the other rich and famous people. But it only counts for a short time, then they'll poop in your bed and make accusations. Whenever I wish I were rich, I like to think of Johnny Depp, Jeff Bezos, Paul McCartney, Bill Gates, Brad Pitt ............ and how successful they were with their women!

I prefer to drink home alone. As for the woman in the OP, she was probably hoping for an invite to join.

I would say the complete opposite! Women are designed for genetic diversity, their children are supposed to all be from different males. Which is why all women in LTRs start refusing their partners sex. The Thailand bar scene is showing as close to natural female behaviour as the modern world will allow.

I can edit the ride to ebike, but there's no option to add my equipment as an ebike, so I have to select it after every ride. Was going to have a day off today, but I woke up, the weather was great so another 25Km ...... 8 days in a row.

More about women that will actually have sex when you want IMHO. I've had 3x LTRs with Thai women and none of them were submissive in any way, I'd describe them as barely repressed angry, aggressive and demanding, but they were always OK with sex. Maybe I'm just meeting the wrong kind of Asian women?
