  1. Good idea, so I won't have to prove you wrong so many times. Ask your cronies to follow suit, because they just can't seem to stay away. You know, birds of a feather. Not being able to comprehend what's written is on you, and not I.
  2. One would have to be frustrated before that would happen. Opinions mean nothing. Insulting other foreigners is a pretty childish thing, especially if you are one.
  3. A paragraph is usually considered a group of sentences, although one line is okay. If you can't comprehend what I write, let me know and I'll separate the sentences more, just for you. And again, you're assuming 50% of foreigners here are nutters and the other 50% hermits. You do understand you are insulting foreigners living here right? By the way, which category are you in?
  4. Some can't handle the truth, so require medicine to ease their pain. Try paracetamol. Or just scroll by. We won't miss ya.
  5. It was a joke. Of course no champagne with a ribeye. That would be better suited with a Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot. Tannins are necessary.
  6. 115/54 resting pulse 58 And again, that was a paragraph. I don't make one line paragraphs like some here do, as they are not paragraphs, although some can't assimilate words if it's a long paragraph and I feel for them. I didn't adjudicate your assessment, as your assessment was wrong. You assumed 50%, and you have no idea, so again, it was an assumption, an opinion, worthless.
  7. Why do others join a conversation, expending so much energy trying to convince others God doesn't exist, when believers will believe no matter what you say? Why bother?
  8. You assume he's imaginary.
  9. Well, today for breakfast I had Eggs Benedict, a 10oz Argentine Ribeye, Oysters Rockefeller, Piedmont White Truffle, some Almas Caviar, along with a 1982 Roederer Cristal, followed by a small desert of Strawberries Arnaud and Kopi Luwak coffee.
  10. The third one today assuming I don't get out much. Yes, I've been out much, all of my 68 years. Because you don't believe in God has you prejudiced against those who do? Is Benny Hill a moral character? No, just as many of today's pop stars aren't either. Apples to oranges in the same basket. I'm going to leave the definition for assumption here, so you and others who read this will take a moment, reflect, read it, and maybe not think you know anyone on any forum at all, let alone enough to assume they don't know about a subject by a reply here. And my friend in the sky might be imaginary to you, but you'll meet him one day, and it might be an eye opener............. assumption noun uk /əˈsʌmp.ʃən/ us /əˈsʌmp.ʃən/ assumption noun (BELIEF) Add to word list C1 [ C ] something that you accept as true without question or proof: .
  11. Some of us put their trust in woman here and were burned, so we have to start all over again, in our 60's. If I could be home tomorrow I would, but it'll take some time. One last move.
  12. That's one thing being an American does. Getting along with everyone, unless you've been taught prejudice by parents. You never know who is out there to hurt or to be your best friend, so you keep them at arm's length until you're sure. Some friends are good as drinking buddies, shooting the sheet for awhile. Some like the same music, movies or sports, so you can spend time that way. Most of my friends back home are fishermen and or hunters, so we've always had that. And some were (are) gym friends, people I met at the gyms and found we shared other things. A friend won't make a pass at your partner but would do whatever it takes to help protect her. I know some men are sleaze, that will do anything to get after anyone's partner because loyalty is something they've never understood. Most people go through life and only have about 6 friends they can call close, with many other acquaintances that are part time friends. A stranger is a friend you haven't met yet, always makes sense, but you do have to be aware.
  13.

  14. The same way you made friends back in the UK is the same way you can make friends here, once you get past the introductions and make sure you both speaks the same language.
  15. When I go back, it won't be a walk in the park, but almost the same as it was before , as I can find many rent to owns there, and the schools are much better for my daughter, so that's a major reason, besides being able to do what I like more. Moving is the hard part.
  16. What I don't understand, all of the years I've lived here, looking through this forum, is why so many foreigners avoid other foreigners. We're the minority here, and besides those who are prejudiced against other nationalities for any number of reasons, I would think, being part of that minority, we can relate to each other, seeing most Thais don't understand our previous lifestyles and other foreigners do. Food, sports, hobbies, music, movies and other pastimes other westerners enjoy can be shared, talked about, argued about, and Thais won't get it anyway, so it's something we can have while living here. I've walked in stores, and seen foreigners look away, not wanting eye contact, yet others will smile, wave and say hi. I understand some don't speak English and might be shy, but a nod or smile is all you need to share that camaraderie. I'm sure some are fugitives, not wanting to start a conversation because they might be "found out", but that's but a fraction of the foreigners living here. You might pass by someone who could be your next best friend, and who shares likes or hobbies and never know.
  17. If they have no more pension, they're in a little trouble. If they still get it, they can go home and get by living frugally, maybe in a lower cost place than they're accustomed to before. You can always rent here in the country and eat Somtam and Pad Krapow forever.
  18. I was answering you when you said," You need to be a nutter in the first place moving to Thailand, especially if it leaves you with no possibility of return back to your orign country." Meaning anyone can leave and go back home if they don't fit here.
  19. Another one that thinks they know people on a forum and how much they get out. Tell us how you think he's an isolated person, seeing you've never met him.
  20. That is a paragraph. How do I "seem" isolated? Have you lived near me and saw how I live? No, so that's yet another of the many assumptions made on AN. You can have your opinion on how many nutters there are here, but it wouldn't be valid because you have absolutely no idea how many unstable foreigners live here. What does get out more mean? Are you assuming that I stay in my house 24/7? Do you actually think that a 68 year old man who has had 3 wives, 6 kids, and about 100 girlfriends, is a hunter, fisherman and had worked for 45 plus years has never left the house?
  21. Re-read what he said. if you think he comes across as definitely isolated your comprehension skills need a huge tweaking.
  22. If you saw valid points I feel sorry for you, along with your comment that 50% of foreigners are hermits, which is ridiculous, as you see them out every day, and the bar patronage seems to have a lot of them socializing. And the other 50% are nutters? What makes a nutter and how many do you personally know, as 50% is a pretty high amount of the foreigners that live here? I don't get out much, spending my free time with my girlfriend or taking care of my daughter, but I have a group of friends here that hit bars every week, a few times, and what they say to me has them saying there's quite a few of their friends that do the same, which means they aren't hermits. I'm guessing you then think they're the 50% nutters? In all my life I've known hundreds of weed smokers, including yours truly, and have never met any that were mad. A little out there but amicable and safe. I have met a few who did meth that were really out there to me, and proved it later.
  23. Not talking to other foreigners doesn't mean you're isolated. Some here speak Thai or at least to communicate with locals. Isolation comes from depression and it's a totally different ballgame, and that requires help. Also, you can't guess what other members here do, even if they tell you something that has you wonder, unless you know them very well personally.
  24. Some that isolate can experience similar hallucinations.
