A lots of what we call 10s, are actually 7 or 6s after all the make up, jewelry, filters and clothes (push up bras....) are gone...

We humans function by social imitation. If you grow up in an environment where everybody has tattoos and having a tattoo is perceived to be 'cool', chances are you're gonna get a tattoo later too. Especially if you grow up in a society like Thailand, which has a pretty big tattoo scene.

People keep saying that about Thai girls but in my dating experience here, it never occured once that a date would bring a friend with her

didn't you like high school?

I feel like asking her if she has a bf is on an equal level of awkwardness. Asking her LINE could be something like : 'I enjoy chatting with you, maybe we can add each other on Line'

Im 36, although I might easily pass for 28, 29...that's what most people tell me

I would do it, but then she'll think it's destined for another girl

So I fancy my local pharmacist and I'd like to believe she likes me too....you know, just that feeling you have when you know someones likes you. The other day i asked what her name was, but that's about the only thing i know about her. Don't know her age or if she has a boyfriend, etc. I would think she's not over 30. The thing is, she speaks limited English. I'm kinda scared to come off as creepy if I go to her store too much, and to be rejected if I ask for her social. I was thinking of inviting her to eat with me. But I'm not really sure how to break the 'customer-merchant' dynamic. Should I bluntly ask her out ? Any advice?

I've used LineMan application for food delivery for years, never had issues. Around 1 month ago, the fees suddenly became higher, up to 20 bahts per order, no matter the distance. It used to be only 2 or 3 bahts. At first i thought it was because of rainy days but it stayed that way. More, the app keeps canceling my orders and i have to try 3 or 4 times before finding a driver while before, it was instantaneous. Any ideas why ? Or did you notice the same thing ?

It's silly to say 'Thai people are like this, Thai people are like that'. There are stupid and unrespectful people everywhere, and Thais are no exceptions. Likewise, it's stupid to say ' oh but you don't understand, its because of the culture bla bla...' Being reduced to 'a farang' is silly.

no that hasn't changed, but his advice were much better than any more 'modern' doctors when i went to see him... previous reputable ENT i went to several times could not really understand my issue and kept prescribing antibiotics and talked about surgery. Dr. Chalermpong was more direct in his diagnosis , no bs. And in the end, his treatment proved the best one

A lot of times, it's because they learn early on that they don't appeal to Thai men or that Thai men treat them like <deleted> by bullying them. Especially the dark skin girls. Thais men can be quite racists and the idea that dark skin is ugly is real here. Same for some facial traits deemed unattractive for girls. Another reason is if the girl is a single mother, Thai men will not touch her anymore. Money is ofc a main reason. Almost all women around the world are looking to date up and to be taking care of. This is especially obvious in poorer countries like Thailand. Some are just attracted to differences, and have been disppointed by Thai men and like foreign men. Some have a big penis fetish. ... it's different for everybody. Thai girls mainly date Thai men however and have zero interests in foreign men because why would they go out of their way to learn English, and try to form a relationship with someone not sharing any cultural similarities or references with her? In my experience here, almost all Thai girls i've dated were all looking to leave Thailand one way or another, for job or travel. Most of them did, sometimes with the help of foreigner, sometimes by themselves.

Poor level of general education, no knowledge about anything going on outside of Thailand will do that

The longer i'm here and the more experience i have, i feel like Thai girls can tell...and are much more defensive whereas naive me first time in Thailand had much less trouble... Maybe i've changed and lost all sex appeal ? Or do girls can tell and 'farang roo mak mai dee'?

oh definitely, she's a messed up one...got a kid at 17 from a Thai guy, the guy was beating her and then left her, she raised the kid on her own, now she left her in Thailand to be taken care of while she's trying to live the Western lifestyle in Canada... she's screaming red flags all along, I met her once, she was lovely tho and very polite, not the typical 'bad girl' profile..
