  1. Have you tried just steamed white rice? It's much healthier because there is no cooking oil.
  2. People wrote those things for a reason. Why do you need to find a reason why their comments are not true?
  3. It's gay guys. There are more then you might think in Asia. In fact, it's very common. It's just not obvious unless you have been here awhile. I had something similar happen at Lumphini Park in Bangkok. I was sitting at a marble monument near the lake trees, nobody else around, Some Thai guy came up on me, sat close and said "I like gay", that sort of thing. When I told him I was not interested he would not leave or go away, maybe took it as interest, or an interested decline. I got up and left the area. I don't care about being approached much, but something about him refusing to move on after I indicated disinterest really irritated me and I felt like hitting him. I still remember that stupid smile he had.
  4. It is a prison, but many refer to it as God's waiting room...
  5. Do what everyone else does, drive in circles...You will find something great eventually...
  6. I don't. I prefer walking everywhere and hate a/c and being driven around. I won't take a taxi unless it's absolutely necessary.
  7. Ok. I don't eat as much as German's do. I'm also not a big meat eater. I also wear deodorant and long pants to meals so I hope you did that as well. Also, no chang t-shirts or sandals at meals.
  8. Obviously, you can easily afford an ample breakfast. However, when the cost is too much by local standards you are being taken advantage of. That's not proper.
  9. I think the Op wants to walk around and be part of the city more and not just drive in from a remote housing estate. They seem to like Central Bangkok, but don't like Central Pattaya.
  10. Do you realize that 250 baht is about 5.5 pounds or $7.50 dollars? Did it come with a drink?
  11. Well, all one can hope for is to do things the right way and hope for the best.
  12. It sounds like you are running out of options in Thailand. Should not your post be where you can't wait to go next, not places to avoid?
  13. Ok, but so what? Isn't that how it should work?
  14. Your problem is probably that you can't afford to live the way you want in a better location. Same problem I'm having. There are houses in Central Bangkok and what you want you just can't afford it. You either compromise on location like I'm having to do (live on the outskirts of a less then desirable area) or you reduce your lifestyle in the more desirable location. The less desirable area invariably has less desirable people in it, but if you are not a very sociable person anyway it can work out Ok.
  15. I have another thread going where everyone says the Indian problem is nothing. Thanks for your input. 🤷🏻‍♂️
