It feels like I'm always reading about this holiday. Hard to believe it's only once a year.

I use social cues to determine who I say hello to. If it looks like someone that would be interested in a connection or further chat I will offer a greeting. If it's just a random stranger I won't say anything. That cuts down greatly on people who just don't respond when I say hello.

Saying hello signals interest and further discussion. What do they do then if you keep talking after the greeting and they don't want to hear it?

Have you considered the bang saray area to the south? You live close to pattaya now, feels odd that you would purchase a place in town just for short stays.

Do you ever see anything in the john that makes you upset?

I can tell you I toured one when I was looking for a rental and did not like the building and unit. It also looked nothing as good as the brochures they have.

I don't need a visa, just a border run to reactivate my current visa in my passport. Do you know if they offer that service?

Is that price them doing a visa for you, or just a border run where you had everything you needed?

No, he was using the john and freaked. Please tell us why?

What do you do in the rest of the house in the evening, shut the sliding doors and just run a/c? Or do you leave the sliding doors open and don't care about mosquito's?

So crank it. Nothing much to see here for you unless you can't afford the cost. The Op's problem is he can't afford to make his place as comfortable as he wants it. So he's trying to "cheat" which does not work. Either pay up or learn to adapt.

I would use a remedy like a heater or a/c if temps were at an extreme. That extreme is different for different people. Some people don't adapt to the environment well and are over sensitive, or they have a comfort zone that needs to be maintained and any change from that state bothers them.

What did they have on you to extort you with?

The air outside is actually cooler at night, so you are needing the a/c in cooler conditions. Unless, your condo is trapping hot air inside in the evening which does happen, esp in older condo's with thick walls. You need to open those windows and let the cool evening air inside! Use a fan like before said and circulate the cool air. Not pump a/c into a condo that has trapped hot air inside from the daytime. You will have to run the a/c all night to get that warm air out with no windows open for it to escape 🤣 I think you are falling for the idea that a/c works well in a hot tropical climate. It does not, really, unless you force it on all the time and just don't give a hoot about the cost.

Could be anxiety related, like a nervous twitch. Happened to me several times when I was much younger.

I had a similar problem, but it was with the wording on the form. It got so technical that they were requesting the form specify which was my last name and first name underneath my name. It was that particular clerk. So make sure you don't see the same person each time when you go in. Some people just keep requesting more changes if they don't want to provide what you need for some reason instead of saying no.

Have you asked your landlord to install sliding screens on the windows & doors to keep mosquito's out? Many units have the screens missing but have the rails for them there. They get damaged and just taken off and never replaced. Depends on the property, many places won't have the rails.

I dunno, but if you need a/c all the time I don't think a tropical country is a good fit for you. Weather is an important factor to where you live. I had a neighbor who did the a/c thing all the time. He finally gave in and just moved.

Any more complaints? https://s.lazada.co.th/s.mm01w

Open the window & use a fan.

Try to work on your confidence as a man. Age does not matter, ultimately. Guys of all ages can attract quality women without financial and other crutches. It does happen. Figure out why it happens and do that.

He could have flipped out due to flying anxiety. Would make sense if it started in the loo. Maybe went in there to vomit or wash up or get away from the cabin because was feeling claustrophobic. It's serious stuff. People hyperventilate and can't breathe and all kinds of weird stuff. Saw a documentary on it. If he cracked the door and people tried to hold him down it could escalate the panic attack.

Easy & cheap does not mean you will like it though... The free drinking water at the food court is cheap, it's easy to sit in a bar all day with losers and do nothing, you become kind of weak when you are not challenged just sitting in a nice condo.

Also, anxiety. The stuff acts like a security blanket. Some people flip out if you try to clean it up and they need a psychiatrist on site with the clean up crew.
