SiamOne

Hey, but how do Thai girls know for instance if a foreigner is has a good personality in the first place? They must be attracted to something else in the first place like opposite cultures or money.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Right on Fanta. you're right on the mark with that but don't tell Siam & others who think same. Those dudes have captured Thai chicks from day one with their looks, charm and wit; cash was never ever a factor

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

oh dear, I saw it!!

Strangely enough, Thai women are a bit similar to other women around the world. When they talk to a guy they can sort of find out his personality by conversation.

Or do farang girls have some special 6th sense we don't have?

Of course, if you are talking about meeting a girl in a bar, maybe your only contact with Thai girls, then the size of your wallet is important.

We are part of a network. We start from here, as soon we have some more members from Thailand we will add some local bells and whistles.

We opted to join an existing network, instead of starting with an empty database with ONE member only  

Hey, please sign up, it's free and SPAM free. Let's see how it works out.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

sorry, I think it is the usual rubbish

anyone who would beinterested has probably already joined the same network elsewhere

better just go to a bar and make friends!!

It was not nothing... it was a mean sounding swipe at a member's wife.

That's not a "sense of humor".

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Wife or just another Thai HO? Why should fome Thai HO get respect just because fome J-ass married her?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

See Mr Moderator, that wasn't me!

nasty and malevolent, not funny at all

It was not nothing... it was a mean sounding swipe at a member's wife.

That's not a "sense of humor".

There's nothing OTT about his wife's report. Inflation IS very present in Thailand...

Eggs last year 20 baht, this year 40 baht... price doubled.

Almost all commodities are rising quickly... petrol, chief among them, with diesel also nearly doubling in a year.

You dislike when people unnecessarily diss Thailand... that's fine... and I tend to agree... but then you lose all credibility when you diss someone unnecessarily on a very personal level.

sorry... "diss" - degrade, knock, mean-sprited.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

oh dear, it was not meant to be mean!! it was a JOKE

I apologise unreservedly to his wife and himself if it caused any unecessary pain

sorry, really Totster, no offence meant

As someone who has gotten to be 50ish I can say you wont neccesarily pick the one your own age. For me the ideal is the decade from about mid 30s. That is the age that intelligence, personality and caring comes to the fore. The twenty somethings only think about looks, body, fashions, shoes, phones, girly friends and most of all, themselves. Great to look at, but very high maintenance.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Yes, my ancient hubbie says he can't wait till I am 30, for the above reasons

hmmmm

I have just bought a Worldspace satellite radio. I have spent hours trying to get the thing working without any success. A few friends at work have them up and running, but I am really struggling. I am hoping someone has one and can help me out.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Is that same as DAB radio. I think you need an outside aerial, not like normal ones

why dont the guys at work help you?

I asked the wife about the price of eggs.. she said now 1 egg bt5, before it was bt2-bt3

ps - special thanks to SiamOne for another TROLL post.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

That's Ok Tottie, just that I need to laugh a couple of times a day and this subject was a good target

don't be upset, I may be a real troll

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

In the future, for a good laugh... instead of trolling and aggrevating another TV member completely unnecessarily, try a newspaper.

Mr. T is usually an excellent source for some nice, hearty laughter on a daily basis.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

hey, dont tell me off for nothing

sense of humour is a nice thing, and I was not trolling, whatever that means

and I am sure he can defend himself if he needs to, as he has done previously

just that the subject was not exactly fascinating, and his partner was a bit OTT

I asked the wife about the price of eggs.. she said now 1 egg bt5, before it was bt2-bt3

What style is this please. I'm not always the sharpest guy around that may be why I do not see the obvious. See I need you guy/girls. Thanks.

Stunning Lanna Thai style home!

I agree with you

The dude feels that in 95% or more of thai/farang relationships that cash was a major factor somewhere along the line. Thems pretty good odds dudes. Furthermore, the dude also feels that 95% of the dudes who claim to be in the 5% category above are living in pipe dreams. Who can dig what the dude is saying?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

That's it really...you "feel" 95% etc. You have no real knowledge, your feelings are based on your own experiences, not the true picture.

Pipe dreams for you maybe, but not for many others...I have no idea of percentages

seems to be a US based company

and who is it for?

Good job there thai dude; what's amazing is the #s of posters that will deny that wealth had anything at all to do in their relationship with their thai wife/or gf. What a load of bunk they peddle

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

why is it amazing?? if they feel that the amount of money they had, or did not have, was not pertinent, why should you question that?

maybe, in your experience, money has always come into your relationships, well, that's your life, not theirs. You cannot hope to know and judge other peoples lives.

I know that it did not influence me, so why cannot others have the same feelings.

Sionone, I wasn't aiming an insult to you just giving you a reason as to why people may not understand your relationship with your husband & my own personal preference. And I think you'll find that sanmig only beleives that it is up to the inidivual if they agree with him but when someone doesn't (like me) he goes on the attack.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Don't worry Boo, I was not insulted at all. I can see your point of view, it was mine too when I was younger....but things change, I met a man who overcame any possible doubts.

I hope you did not mean that your ideas will never change (in your other post), stay flexible in your approach to life, be open to other ways. You may not change your mind in this respect...but hey!, you may.

yes, but why is it worth it?  

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

so you can see the pretty girls on the web site in active #D of course ... follow the link in the OP

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Much as I like pretty girls, maybe some of hunky men would be better!!

Well the fact he had his hand on my arm suggested he wasnt quite finished, plus you never know when you may need them,  I walk past that station pretty much every day,  and as much as I may loathe it, playing the game sometimes is better

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

well, you wont be seeing him for a while...he will be sitting on the toilet

Hold on there siamone you got the wrong idea. I wasn't talking about me in particular. It seems like you are paranoid, angry, frustrated by your reactions. Can't handle criticism? Were you so offended cause you it applied to you? Was it true what I said? Obviously it was cause you got so emotional about it. Or what? Was my post slightly meant to be slightly sarcastic. Hold on there easy. Relax. You don't have to get so emotional by a 19 year old teenie over the internet.

The poster asked a thai opinion. Now he got one and everyone is flaming. Wow!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

oh dear Fanta, I did not know you were criticising me...I just picked up on what you were saying about yourself. But apparently you were not, so I am wrong to think that of you. Where did you get all those thoughts then?? must have been in your head, I think.

No, I was not angry, just amazed at your remarks. Never mind, I hope you already have a nice g/f.

in my market

egg before 37 bahts for ten , now 40 bahts ( not double )

chiken before 90 bahts now 100 bahts

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

yes, that sounds more like it! maybe his wife wants a bigger allowance for shopping

Also the young thai men resentment. You would feel the same, if a few (like 100k foreigners) 50-year old dudes are stealing your young girls just because they got cash and you dont. I feel the same way. Or how would you feel that you wanted something that you've been waiting 19 years for. And only to find out that everytime you go to Thailand you'll see another foreign-thai couple popping out of the ground, while your stuck in your country for another 5-6-10 years. How would you feel if you think you got the looks, the brains, the talent and the personality but due to some reasons you never going to get that girl you'll always wanted, while some hairy 80 year old guy is pointing fingers and laughing at you with his fresh 18 year old girl. 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

oh you poor sick boy! I am so sorry for you, so handsome, so brainy, talented and lots of personality. Why can't you get a nice girl? and those awful farang can?

and you sound so angry, so jealous and resentful too, maybe a little paranoid thrown in.

I think those last characters are the ones that any woman, from any country, would run a mile from. You start to sound like my first b/f, a controlling and very jealous man. Nice to start, then almost psycho as time went on, frightening.

Any man must respect his g/f or wife, without that, you are nothing. Maybe those 80 year old men give that to the g/fs, not money.

so get help, become more relaxed and be generous with yourself.

I'd call it "mind-numbing stuff "!!!

I like your avatar, maye I will get my fish to swim around a bit

My lovely has NEVER tole me she loves me TO MY FACE. Phone yes, in person never a hint. Any comments??

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Are you very ugly, or did she have the wrong number?

It would be nice to get the same or better visas on entry too than farangs.

I am in Malaysia, and they gave me a one month visa, my English hubbie got three months. So much for ASEAN

Beer Laos I suppose you mean....too much Chang

I always calm down after watching Thai TV; in fact, sometimes I fall asleep whilst watching it.

too funny

I think its just easier and sometimes alot cheaper to grease your way although I lived in burma for 18 months and the generals have a penchant for johnny walker blue and golf clubs!  I had to go to the police station yesterday for a police report (lost my wallet, needed to get report for bank) and the man came out with me when I was finished and said he'd love a coke and a hotdog from 7-11!  No worries, came back, gave it to him, he asked my name for the 5th time, thanked me and kissed my hand      Its true though, its cheaper than paying tickets back home!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I don't quite understand your need to "grease" your way at that point, as you had already finished.

Mind you, a 7-11 hotdog is a very apt way to do it.

Is that it?
