  1. So what is she doing that turns you off?
  2. I don't think so, because Mr Trump has the biggest lever. It is the US market that is the main market for Chinese exports. It is the Chinese that are desperate to be in the US market to sell their export surplus. So how could Xi win this? He can't. Particularly since his economy is rocked by real estate scandals and unemployment and already on the ropes. That's why commentators are saying that Xi will take a deal if he gets one. Who has the longer lever here? Trump would not hesitate and walk away and let the Chinese economy suffer crippling tariffs. Xi knows this. The Chinese will take a deal even if they do not get all they want.
  3. Well, Trump himself posted much the same on social media. Right now all tariffs are paused I think, with the aim being, that this allows nations to approach the US to offer deals. In relation to laptops, smartphones etc, I think it is no secret that Tim Cook and Donald Trump are fairly close and I would be amazed if Tim Cook had not done all he could to convey to Trump that Apple needs some kind of grace period to adjust. Probably other CEOs did the same. From Apple's perspective I guess any reprieve would be preferable and a win of sorts, no matter how short. I suspect Trump is also sensitive to consumer opinion to some degree, even if it does not look like it, and he knows that massive increases in smartphone and laptop prices could hurt his main supporter base, young white males. The 1 to 2 month time period is probably just to give Apple and co some kind of grace period. From the Chinese perspective, since they KNOW this will come down to negotiating a trade deal with China, it actually makes sense to raise the tariffs and take short term pain for long term gain, because in the negotiations a larger tariff on US goods will be more of a bargaining chip for China. So fairly logical decision by the Chinese.
  4. Obviously limerence, the honeymoon period, will end after2 years max, but then both parties can still want to be with each other and try to solve issues that arise. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being Miss Grand winner/Yu Yu Sai and 1 being that fat girl with glasses on TF, how would you rate your wife?
  5. Okay, she's attractive, but you're clearly not attracted to her anymore. Why is that?
  6. Excellent advice. Women generally are cold. Ruthless even. They would think nothing of your emotions. There is nothing colder, or more ruthless than a woman. Which makes sense because there is also nothing warmer and hotter than a woman, if they can do one, they can do the other.
  7. So she is loyal, generous and a good woman, but you just don't feel attracted to her anymore?
  8. China is sure to feel pain from Mr. Trump’s tariffs, which have reached at least 145 percent — a staggering figure that imperils the country’s $400 billion in annual exports to the United States, its biggest market. Already, factories near the manufacturing hub of Guangzhou that supply garments to American consumers have closed until there is more clarity on the tariffs. If such closures spread, they could exacerbate China’s unemployment problem, making it even harder for policymakers to revitalize an economy battered by a property crisis and sagging confidence. “Even if you think you have a strong repressive capacity to hurt doubters and a jingoistic story to rally supporters, economic dislocations are still dangerous because you never know how bad they will get and whether they will turn into something worse,” Mr. Torigian said. That economic reality suggests that Mr. Xi will probably accept an off-ramp from the tariff showdown if Mr. Trump offers one, analysts said. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/11/world/asia/trump-china-tariffs-xi.html Very obviously there will be a deal made between China and the US. It will allow China to save face to some degree, but it will also reshape China-US trade relations in a more equitable way. Everyone wins. More winning from Mr Trump. Born to be a winner.
  9. This is mostly because her character changed after the kids arrived?
  10. You are not well informed. The reprieve for laptops, smartphones etc was just fake news. They will be slapped with more tariffs.
  11. Oh so you are no longer married? How long were you together? I do agree, it's not good for a man to fall in love in a serial way, it degrades the whole experience. If you fall in love with a large number of women it just becomes ridiculous. So, our path is clear, to put our logic before our emotions. Not easy at all times.
  12. So she was very giving by nature? That's very lucky, it's extremely rare in a woman, who are mostly about Me, Me, Me, Me. And she has been completely loyal throughout? No strange behaviour? How long has it been in total? This is something they don't tell fathers. That the woman's character will change dramatically. My ex wife as well, after she had children her character was like transformed, a 180 degree turn, and not for the better. I didn't like her after the kids anymore either. Even less now. Kids really are life-changing. How did it manifest in your case?
  13. Yes, absolutely relationships ARE transactional. The reason is that inequality is the very basis of relationships. Both parties only enter into one if they want something from the other which they do not have. Whilst with women it is almost always money that they want, it can also be status, security, kind manners, good looks, it can be many things. But basically they want something they do not have. If neither party want anything, if they are both equal in every way, then there would be no need to enter into a relationship, it would not come to pass. So at their very core relationships are transactional. May I ask how old the Thai wife was when you first met her?
  14. The point is these items will not be exempted from tariffs. As always Trump is very consistent and equitable. Not at the moment, I think as regards China it's only 10% for a short while to see if China wants to secure a deal. Then the 20% tariffs DO kick in, but IN ADDITION these items will be slapped with tariffs in the semiconductor bucket. I hope this helps clear it up.
  15. That's absolutely true. You pay for every woman. The only question is how much and how openly. No matter where you are. They're certainly bold and open enough here to state it up front. On Thaifriendly, when you see in the actual profile "Seeking Sugar Daddy", "Hope to meet someone for support" "Like gentleman not stingy" "I like money" (all real profile headings I have personally seen), you don't even bat an eyelid anymore. Some are more shy, they don't put it in the profile heading, but how many times have you engaged and they wrote back "I'm freelance"? I would say a good 60% of TF profiles are prostitutes.
  16. Oh my God! Trump didn't realise services make up 80% of the economy, but thank God RSD1 spotted this obscure fact, being smarter than all of us, including Donald Trump. This is excellent news. Will you now be called to the White House as economic advisor RSD1 to correct economic policy? Please update us how you get on in the White House.
  17. Fake news. Smartphones, computers and electronics are not "spared". They will just go into a different tariff bucket. Trump just posted on social media.
  18. 10 men every single day is 300 men writing in one month. Just an example. But basically the phone has become an instrument of female domination in relationships. Women can do with the phone what they simply cannot do in real life, where they have to deal with real men. The phone has made cheating much, much easier, as has social media. Loyalty from women will become a thing of the past. No woman, faced with perceived endless abundance and the ability to conduct covert affairs using a phone will stay loyal. Why do you think women stay on Insta and post videos of themselves dancing and licking their lips? It's not for you. You gave up chasing other girls, she's still in the sexual market place thanks to social media. Even if you're Tom Brady, she will cheat.
  19. My ex-wife, who is not Thai, also had no qualms about silencing the kids by giving them a mobile phone or tablet. It's funny isn't it, how women wail and cry how bad they want children, then when they have children they can't wait to palm them off on Ipad, Iphone, Kindergarten, etc.
  20. Social media has basically destroyed male female relationships. Women are now convinced they live in global abundance, as they get 10 DMs ever single day from guys. Indeed the good looking girls can now get an Italian footballer to text them, and fly them to Rome for a date. Before they were confined to a local dating pool, and had to rely on the local men. Now, dating has changed forever. To the benefit of women, and detriment of men. Many women have developed narcissistic personality disorder due to the endless likes from men on social media. Even men they love, women will kick to the curb, thinking "I can do better".
  21. Also, if its' a prostitute, probably Thai.
  22. Generally if they order Som Tum Lao instead of Som Tom Thai, you can be sure it's a Thai.
  23. Oh listening to music on a Walkman! Another 1980s highlight. Like we could't listen to music then, come on. We could even make those cassettes that had meaning and give them to our girlfriend, trade them. Now, everyone is up there own backside on Spotify. We could take photos too in the 1980s Basically we haven't advanced at all. Lol. Keep in touch with family? I don't want to keep in touch with family! I want to get away from family. When I saw my 84 year old father's wrinkled face on Whatsapp the other day my hairs stood on end! My mother, in her day one of the most beautiful women in the world, is now so hideous, I can't even do video calls with her for my own sanity.
  24. Not Jomtien lower half. That's for sure.
