No, and not taken personally. You brought the 'mum' thing into a guys future stuff, why was that...?
I think the point I was making is pretty self-explanatory.

LOL.
They do wash you know, at least some of them.
It's a bit like taking a taxi where you don't really care which fat ass sat in the seat 30 minutes earlier.
I generally keep my pants on in a taxi.

No, that's not what I said at all. You appear to have taken my comment rather too personally, for some reason.
Are you done now?

Dude, don't be ridiculous. I made a generalised suggestion that some people may be happier in a relationship because they've never spent much time on their own, or learned to fend for themselves. It wasn't a cue to interrogate me on my life story.
I've told you as much as you need to know in the context of this discussion. I'm not going to write my memoirs just to satisfy you. Let's move on.
-
My story is far from perfect, believe me.
Like I said, I'm not interested in telling my life story just to satisfy you. This thread isn't about me.
Shall we move on before this becomes another one of your 'mum' episodes?

But you keep talking about everybody else's business...Tell us how you gave up mum and became incredibly wise.....Just tell all.....You are in your 40's, been around a bit, so tell all...Easy....
Sorry. I'm not interested in publicly telling my life story just to satisfy some bored retiree with nothing better to do than start petty arguments online.
I certainly didn't go direct from mum to wife to wife, though.

Sorry, not so Great any more. no Scotland and no Green country. In two years, it will only be England and the Whalers.
Scotland hasn't left the union just yet, you know.

And your story is......?
None of your business.
I'm certainly capable of caring for myself, though.

Some of these guys went from mum to first wife to second wife and so on. They'd be lost if they had to fend for themselves.

Come on mr know it all you tell me the truth, if you didn't have a thai wife would you be in thailand for thailand I would say no way .
And you have know idea about me .
i just ask a question ok and you turn it around against Me .
i not care about your country ok .

i am telling you ok thailand is getting very Expensive .
how bad is it for the thai people on 300 bht a day .

i just ask if most western man are happy and a lot are and I am happy for them and they are lots who are not .
I don't have a Thai wife, and yet here I am in Thailand. Many of my friends don't have Thai partners either.
We're all happy here.

Thank you for your considered contribution, professor.
-
I think you should do it more often. Giving these guys something to complain about seems to have fractionally reduced the amount of moaning elsewhere on the forum.

Yes ....and ur point ???
What do you wear on your feet?
-
Where is Great Britain?
-
Those who say they only wear flip flops or sandals - do you never take your wife or girlfriend out to a nice restaurant or anywhere like that?
-
I'm amazed how many people seem to think the only options are 'single' or 'Thai partner'.

I shouldn't be responding on this thread as I'm not a Western male. But my (limited) experience is that those who make the most effort to tell everyone how happy they are - are the ones in trouble, and far from happy.
I think the main reason we see people talk about how happy they are here is as an attempt to counter the relentless negativity that pervades this forum.
-
How delightfully ironic to be accused of failure to read by someone who's just completely misread your post.
-
Yeah. I didn't think you'd put your mouth where your money was.
I'm guessing you paid an embarrassing amount over the odds.

I'm glad you've taken a swipe, because that allows me to swipe back. You aren't very bright, are you? I'm paid what a college lecturer in the UK gets paid. It's plenty. I've also got the same sum again coming in from other sources. The reason I've got these resources is because I don't p**s money away. You - again - can't imagine spending less than you can spend, so one day fortune will blow and you'll be wiped away. I'm tweaking my handout on Machiavelli just at the moment, funnily enough. You're Italy, I'm Germany. I prepare when the river is low, you'll be washed away the first time the predictably unpredictable hits you.
Thing is, though, you know nothing about me - mainly because I'm not the one telling my life story in a vain effort to justify an embarrassing thread about a foolish decision.
But seeing as you're so cunning with your money, impress us - what bargain price did you get this hutch for, and where was it?

And yet again, you just don't read. You think you do, but you don't. Ikea furniture is precisely what you don't have in these condos. As I said at the start, you get garbage dining room chairs, plastic garden furniture and similar.
And yet again, again, again, we're stuck - like a dog chasing its tail - on "you rented the wrong apartment". For **** sake, how many times. Mee hawng wang mai? Doo hawng dai mai? And you go for a look and yup, there we are - huge bed, no space, no proper desk, no proper seat.......Are you actually able to understand my claim, even if you think it's false? Let's suppose I'd never been in Thailand. If I said, "All the scooters are painted purple" then this would be an empirical claim which would be false. If I said, "Most of the scooters are four strokes and the Honda Wave remains popular" then this would be true. If I'd never been in the country then these statements couldn't be about my experience of the country, although they could still be true or false. They're what we philosophers call - and I don't want to blind you with science - "descriptive". I'm looking to describe the world. I might describe it accurately or inaccurately, but it's a (purported) description. You do see this? You understand the kind of claim it is? You do know that it's possible to do different things with words?
Your call to (your own) authority is somewhat undermined by the fact that you're apparently not paid enough for your academic expertise to be able to afford to rent a place where you don't bang your shins on the furniture when you get up to take a leak.
-
Let's face it, this isn't about a trend - it's about one apartment. Unless the OP did a survey of a large number of studios, knocking on doors with tape measure in hand, frowning to himself as he notes yet another inappropriate king-size.
-
Please yourself. But I'm not the one who kept stubbing his toe on the Ikea furniture and then cursing someone else's stupidity.
Good luck finding anybody who actually agrees with you, rather than just thinking you rented the wrong apartment.
-
I'm not sure that skilled, well-educated folk are exactly the target market for cheap shoebox studio apartments.
But this is all speculation. The only facts we have here are that you've rented a place you find unsuitable for your needs, and somehow you seem to think thats anyone else's fault but your own.
Do expats need a relationship to be happy here?

Nobody but you used that phrase.
