  1. It's probably difficult for someone with a small dick to have the confidence and willingness to work his tool to perfection, but like anything else it's possible.
  2. A lot of the time what they are weighing behind the scenes is inheritance stuff. Even if they can afford care at home, they decide to not pay what they are able in order to leave more money to family, figuring their time is short. Add to that they may be getting a bit older and not inclined to be ontop of the finances and bankbook like they once were. In my experience it's very rare for money and inheritance factors to not enter in some form. I had a relative in assisted living and it was very common for residents there to start gifting what money they had early (likely as a way of keeping family around and not pulling away as they got older). What typically happened was the gifter needing the money later on as the home kept increasing fees for care. That put the people who were gifted in a position of having to return the money later on. Some could not afford to do so as they had spent the money, causing all sorts of family squabbles concerning who was going to pay what and how much. Then one sibling providing more support either through location or willingness therefore getting more money then others as compensation, etc. A real rabbit hole.
  3. I'm not sure. I guess it's possible. The gay thai guys around did appear almost always effimate and submissive (limp wrist), not masculine. If you are used to another gay scene (like San Francisco) you could be disappointed in Patpong. I'm not gay, so my understanding is limited. I did grow up in a gay area of San Francisco though so I know a flamer when I see one.
  4. I noticed a lot of guys that seemed like they were gay just from the way the acted and looked.
  5. They are terrible and rife with abuse and poorly paid staff. It's common for the residents to turn on each other and poor supervision means people get victimized by other residents. So bad in fact that those stuck there are usually without family. If they have any family at all who visits they end up removing them from the facility, even if it means just moving into a spare room.
  6. Can't they strike from almost anywhere? Deployment position is probably defensive, not offensive.
  7. Is it possible that a big penis has larger balls, this more semen, or healthier semen? The bigger your load the more chance of inseminating the female? Maybe that's why there are so many people in Africa.
  8. This is one of the reasons why I never make loud sex sounds. It always feels like someone is just behind the wall listening.
  9. Yes, he does. Agents are corruption. They are faking the funds needed by bouncing money in and out. They might not get caught, but it's still cheating.
  10. Does the father want to stay in Thailand at all? If money is not an issue, what benefits are there to staying in Thailand if he can afford care in the home country close to family? He would be inside most of the time anyway so it's not as if he will be out and about much enjoying Thailand.
  11. So using a Thai agency is therefore the solution to all your problems? 🤣 More likely it's just a new problem. I would switch to the Dtv visa. No money import required.
  12. They seem to enjoy the Thai activities they do participate in more then many expats, however. They don't have the expectation of Thailand living up to a certain standard. If it fails to live up to that standard they don't get disgruntled. They just brush it off and move on. That may be because they know they can move easily if they want and are not stuck here so it does not matter much. In a similar way to young backpackers. Just having a good time and not caring if things come up short here. Or, laughing about it if it does. Contrast that with a long term expat who needs to either change Thailand or accept that it's poor quality in many ways. Especially, if they grew up in a more developed country.
  13. No. I also repaired my sink the other day.
  14. Last time I was at Mike's Mall I went to the "food court" on the upper floor. It was completely deserted except for one older guy sitting there staring into his soup. Was that Mike?
  15. Use it before commenting. Why did you tell this guy 9 months? It enables a stay of 5 years + 6 months.
  16. Only if he is well insured in the US. Without it he is broke in the US.
  17. What list do you belong to?
  18. It's that same 'all in your head' baloney. A 'blaming the victim' and 'it's all you' argument. It's annoying to hear that response for every problem.
  19. Can you tell us why?
  20. That will bother you eventually, unless you are a complete nihilist (rare).
  21. I can't see why it would be limited to superficial problems and not interpersonal relations.
  22. There's always be some reason, or they would not be angry. The point is can they talk about what it is or resolve the issue, or do they just nevermind it and bottle it up inside, only to have it explode with the next person or partner. Anger does not really just go away, you need to find out what's bothering you. That takes critical thinking, facing problems and emotional maturity.
  23. You may have to wait a long time... It's easier to move yourself (if you can afford it).
  24. I can't see why not. Hawaii is pretty affordable these days.
  25. The root seems to be immaturity, living only for the present moment, nevermind attitude, etc. A specific example would simply be getting angry about something and not wanting to discuss why (or not knowing how to due to lack of critical thinking, not language).
