  1. i agree wholeheartedly ................ but most will not have the skill to learn themself , that is why they blindly follow others.
  2. This looks like the one i bought 2 years ago . Works good and no problems . Pretty darn good . My receipt says its a model Dyno D3 . I saw in person at Irontec shop in Chiangmai . Paid 19k baht ..... they delivered ( it is very heavy ) https://www.irontec.co/product/treadmill-duo/ note: the one shown here MIGHT be a model slightly smaller than the one I got ( looks similar but i remember there was one at showroom smaller than the one i chose )
  3. yes, i have YT premium ...... which is great with the no ads ( and only 179 baht/mo ) but.......... had it for a little over a year and now difficult to find decent stuff on it . I type in a movie on search, but more often than not its not on offer . would like to try something like pirate bay BUT always get ticked off trying to navigate the necessary steps (as well as a little paranoid 🙂
  4. it has commercials ? If so..... how intrusive are they ? ( every 5 minutes or ? )
  5. no other ingredients added .............https://www.lazada.co.th/products/matell-pea-protein-isolate-plant-based-non-whey-i3903910125.html
  6. i like my girlfriends slurping noises .........😝
  7. If possible , can you copy that "certificate" ( without your personal info ) so I can see it ? I am thinking of using K bank as well .......... instead of bkk bank
  8. oh, if i could only post names ..............
  9. yeah...... its always objective when it agrees with one's beliefs .
  10. As with all relationships, family interactions ............. there are soooo many variables that come into play . ( and the person in the mirror is probably the most influencial one) You write often that being alone is not fun . I'm sorry for that . Luckily my last try at living together has worked out well ( just in time for my old age LOL ) But, my daughter who i am very close with lives in Canada... with hubby and 2 cute kids. Here in Thailand ....... just me and ms. rumak . A few others would be nice.
  11. I've had a few dirty looks from ladies in my past . Took me quite a while to find one that does not give dirty looks. Or talk disrespectfully to me ... or anyone for that matter . I would suggest you might consider that when choosing a partner... but , too late i guess
  12. no marriage, no children is a very good way . knowing your age would be interesting to me ( but up to you ) Having a fulfilling life that carries on into your 60's and 70's is a challenge, and children, extended family can help ( IF they are a blessing, not a curse 55)
  13. well........ 1. we're all different 2. and different ages ( are you now 20, or 40, or 60 ) 3. views, circumstances change . just look around how many ecstatic love stories turned sour . Having a kid or kids is probably the biggest negative when it comes to breakups. Complicates everything A LOT On the other hand..... my daughter, when in her 20's wasn't really interested in having children. Now she has 2 and she is crazy about them . I was happy to have one . The marriage didn't last ( but longer than Brad and Angelinas 🙂 ...... but in my older years now I wish I had 5 kids , and grandkids, with many of them living nearby . As to meeting the child . I can see why its a good idea . Just like meeting the "family" , you can tell a lot from observing the behaviour of all that will be involved . just as a note : i had a gf with a 10 year old boy who was so nice . it was easy for me to love the kid . But i did not want to stay with the mother ( together 3 years) . Easier to break things off if not your child . And..... the question of getting married or not has not been asked by OMF . My answer to that would be OMG , don't do it if not 100% necessary . Marriage, and children are long time commitments which sometimes make life great ........... or backfire miserably . As Clint would say " you feelin' lucky ? "
  14. as Charlie H. opined............ the plaintiff seems to have some experience in these matters. Also, the farang is "careful" . Advice to others..... let the Mrs. do the paperwork and talking ( you can talk? adivse with her seperately) Building houses also , and a good contract signed with a good witness. So many problems are because we ( yes, even rumak) ..... rushed things
  15. yes.....good to have. Still, can say just helping you . And lots of thais call us boss. No contract with his name anywhere is what you are up against. BTW: WHO is bringing the suit ???? Him or the installing company? 🙂
  16. what i thought. do you have the text messages of your conversations and dealings with him ? BTW: No formal contract for a project your size can turn into a big problem . Not helpful now........ but something we all can learn from
  17. people, maybe some lawyer, are telling you all kinds of things. If indeed someone wants to help you ............ they would need to see the ACTION being taken against you, and for sure what type of suit ( criminal, civil , ??) . And then make inquiries from there directly at the court involved . THIS is where even a good and intelligent THAI friend can help ( not usually member of wifes family ... but maybe)
  18. aha .......... and i believe you said you have no proof that he is part of that company ? ( btw : work permits are NOT issued or monitored by immigration)
  19. if no proof of actually working ( photos, etc) .... then they can just say he helped with translation
  20. Most problems here are "won" by the person/combatant having the most power , or specifically , powers in the form of contacts / associations . If one thinks about it ........ that is pretty much the case everywhere. From what you have written, he want's nothing to do with working things out with you. The one thing missing here is WHY that is the case ( from his side) . Without hearing the other party's reasons none of us can guess the real motives for his action. Does someone here have lots of influence and want to get into someone elses problem? A very good and costly lawyer might be needed. OR ..... go it alone if you think they are bluffing you
