Slightly different issue. When I went to Bangkok Bank to get Social Security money from USA, they wanted to see my visa extension and wouldn’t give me MY money…..I’ve capped that because it is MY money….told me I would have to go to immigration and resolve the issue. it turned out immigration had stapled two pages together so that resolved the problem. This was something new and the first time this issue came up. Now the banks are getting in on the act….what that has to do with them I have no idea.

I always ask the driver where he is headed. Never had an issue with any of them. They want the fare so they answer where they are going…..Simple.

Tell the people who died last time around it is a scam. Especially the TV broadcaster in England whose husband just died of Covid….and no he didn’t take any shots….he got Covid right at the beginning of the virus before they came out with anything to combat it. I was in BKK hospital in Pattaya with Covid and felt so awful I would have been happy to die. You got lucky and dodged a bullet.

This lady can do this….Tar 0917627226 including money.

I’ve been actively meditating for fifty years. Very good for having a reasonably balanced life. All the naysayers will have a field day with this as they don’t believe in anything beyond the end of their noses.

Most are scammers, at least 90 percent. And the Philippines is the same if not worse. Ten years ago dating sites were pretty real, but now all about separating you from your money.

And that cop wasn’t licensed to be riding that bike which wasn’t even his….one wonders what happened to him? Probably nothing.

My ex wife found me a house near the lake for 5,000 baht….very simple place etc. Look around that area.

Wake at 5am every day. Meditation one hour 6am off for swimming and walking for two hours or riding bike around lake. Bed at 10:30 or 11pm And I’m 80

Why do you need a lighter on a flight when there’s no smoking?

As somebody said above, this is a complex issue. I have an intelligent girlfriend, but she has the ability to drive herself crazy with all the complicated thinking she gets into. I would try finding a young woman who is into exercising, as this requires a balanced way of looking at her life, and more than a modicum of intelligence.

Not exactly a member of the Open Mind Team are you. There is lots of evidence of life after death, especially in countries that believe in reincarnation. Countless verified stories especially from India. you might want to check out the availability of your local mental asylum. Grin,

New Yorkers are very easy to pick out….much like real Londoners.

Putin does not forgive and forget…….my money is on the Big Bye Bye.

He arrived in his private GulfStream jet. Man, if I had that kind of money I would have swung low across the airport and kept going. I have my pick of the world……crazy man!

It sounds like it’s time for introspection in your life. I’ve found meditation works for me and has done for the last fifty years. Start off slow, like ten minutes and build up to where you can do an hour or more. Once you get into a groove with meditation the rest will seem like what it is….just distractions. Now if you blow this off, then there is your boredom right there.

Traffic and incompetent drivers. Ditto Ditto Ditto Ditto Otherwise a great place to live.

Obviously Thai women can be simple and complicated. I’m involved with a very intelligent Thai woman, which brings its own issues. She’s enjoys our times together, but is the opposite of your issue, she doesn’t want to commit to me…..she probably will eventually. Why not see the one that interests you more than the others on a weekly basis, one date a week. You will probably learn a lot about her if you do other things together, not just dinner. Find things to do around BKK that are fun and will test you both. Take her PaintBall shooting……find a Zoo, you’ll learn a lot about her perspective on life and animals there…..find things that don’t involve overnight stays……be creative……catch a show together…..take her for Indian food, and Mexican food…..take a boat trip on the river….expose her to new ideas etc. Good luck with it all.

What a bunch of crooked <deleted> the lot of them. No military should be in charge of a country. Fire them all and have another election.

You seem either very naive, or immature, or haven’t dated a lot of women. …….maybe both! In love after a month….Yikes! Where are you from? It sounds like you are heading down the road that runs off a Cliff……put the brakes on and slow down before you hit the forty foot wall in front of the cliff. Can you speak Thai….can she speak good English? If the answers No to both of those be very careful because there will be some huge misunderstandings now and down the road. Good luck.

Life after 40 is downhill mostly……Wow! You are not the person to ask for advice with such a defeatist and negative attitude. I’ll be 80 next year and having the time of my life. I play tennis, bicycle, swim, and walk most days of the week. Having the best sex ever with a 34 year old girlfriend. Life is a gift to be enjoyed, not to be giving up at 40. Come on, you can do better than that. Retirement for me is the best part to be enjoyed.

Sadly it sounds like you have to take the Tough Love approach. Sit her down and lay out the options for her. I would put dates on things, if you don’t stop by this date….I am gone. I would say, gambling for 24 hours straight is a problem. Now ask her to tell you why it isn’t a problem. And then ask her at what point does it become a problem? If she hasn’t got any answers, I’m afraid you have run out of choices. There really isn’t any difference between addictions to alcohol, drugs, food, sex, or gambling. Set a bye bye date to her, explain it clearly to her. Ask do you have any questions? If nothing changes by the bye bye date…….then their is your answer. Good luck. Remember, you have to take care of yourself first.

Friend in Phuket thought he would hang some curtains for his wife in her Massage Shop. Unbeknownst to him Immigration was next door, and so they swooped in on him and took him for some money. Be careful all the time. Dropping wife’s uncle off at bus station in Korat in the evening. Suddenly two Immigration guys stopped me and wanted my passport, which of course I didn’t have….fortunately my wife called in that moment and talked to them. Crazy thing was the immigration office was 25 kilo out of town.

Hi guys, looking for some quality tennis players interested in playing good competitive men’s doubles at Siam Bayshore Hotel in the mornings at 8am. Our court is mostly in shade which keeps the heat down. You are finished by 10am and have the rest of the day ahead of you. Any age, as long as you play around 3.5 to 4.5 level. Contact me if you are interested. Thanks. Our next match is tomorrow Friday at 8am.

I was interested at 2,500, but when you go to buy them it is 7,660 baht. Thank you, I will pass.
