Then don't feed the paranoid characters fella. She obviously isn't for you so time to go have some fun and maybe you will find the 'one' and if you don't, you'll have a good time trying ;-)

Sound advice for the OP, 12DrinkMore.

Paul Ince springs to mind. I was in the Boleyn the same week the papers had him with in a Man UTD shirt on but still signed to West Ham. People were starting fires with his picture in the pub!

People had real telephone conversations, sent letters and birthday/Christmas cards.

Ain't that the truth. And those e-birthday cards are so incredibly naff and disappointing!

Not many people know this; but the eyes are the number one gateway for infection. Buy yourself a pair of swimming goggles for 40 baht from tourist shops on the Beach Roads of Pattaya & Jomtien.

They sort of dig in your eye sockets after several hours of use but be sure to extend the rubber strap for extra comfort. Also consider buying a clear plastic so you can read on the plane journey. Hope this advice helps.

LOL this is a joke right?

Your forgetting one important point that the Thais do here that many people do NOT do back home. TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF before coming into the house. How many mates you had back home used to come around your house after walking in the rain and just wipe their trainers or shoes on the door matt and walk on your brand new carpet!!

Something else I was bought up to do is when someone makes you something to eat or drink around their house when you have finished take the plate or cup out to the kitchen, that is also polite and good manners and very rarely seen. I'm a sucker for holding doors open for people its in my nature. I simply could not open a shop door whilst someone is approaching and let it go. Regardless of whether people are polite or not always remember how you was bought up. Even my Thai girlfriend taught me to say Khrab at the end of every sentence of Thai, albeit the little that I know.

The man thought for a long time about what each lady had done with the money he'd given her.

Finally he did what all men would do.... and married the one with the biggest tits!

Not a bad choice. But seriously you don't just jump into bed with Terry Tibbs, you take Terry Tibbs out to lunch, you wine and dine him, you give him an oil massage then he gives you 1950 if you're lucky.
