Why We Long-time Farang Will Never Leave Thailand.....

Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

Because, we love Thailand

 

We do not come to Thailand for short-time, short-time, tourist quickies in the bars..

 

We come here because we love it.

 

We do our best to learn the language.

 

We try to be good guests.

 

Life is short.

 

Better, during this short life we lead, to spend our too-few days in Thailand.

 

The grass is never greener, outside Thailand.

 

Just remember what happened to Grace Kelly. She should never have left Philly.

 

So, also remember this:  When you finally find a good roost, like here, then settle down and stop your wanderlust for places imagined that, if you were to get there. would not measure up to where you are now.

 

Thailand is the best place in the world.

 

You are lucky to be here.

 

Note:  During the past week, the weather has been quite cold. I am not used to the cold after having lived here for many years. I just hope the weather will warm up, soon.

    Sex in the morning is my favorite with my girlfriend. ???? I only corrected the OP who somehow pretends he represents the farangs who are here for many years. He doesn't!

Are you thinking about sex this time in the morning ?

It would be better to be getting on with it , rather than talking about it with other guys on forums an 7.30 AM

You are correct, but I won't say no to a short time, after all, you did say life is short and with only 30 notches under my belt in this short life, I have to make up for the lost time during the Pandemic, if only you could feel my anxiety.

Well, if I do not yet represent the farangs who have been here for many years, and this is debatable, then, surely, someday I might.

 

By the way, how long does it require, since one first set foot here, for one to be considered long time?

 

Is 50+ years enough?

I prefer a bacon sandwich with onions and brown sauce and a cup of coffee in the mornings . 

   I do find that if you have a proper sex session in the evening , like an hour long session , full on , then there's no need to do it again the following morning

Morning Glory is a flower that many men appreciate as they get older ????

Awww, where's that sick bucket. Thailand is hands down one of the most boring countries in the world, and it's like living on the sun.

 

As for old men talking to each other about sex...makes my skin crawl.

Within a microsecond, compared to the age of the universe, you, too, shall become old.  And then, please believe me, your skin will crawl for many reasons.

 

Maybe, by then, you will find more understanding about your world.

And, you will appreciate, more, the beauty of Thailand.

 

Until then....

 

Go West, young man.

 

West of here is India.

Go to India, My Son.

 

Enjoy.

You do seem to have a delicate constitution.

Have you found the courage to ask your wife about the loan she took out behind your back described in your recent thread? The one where the Thai loans fellow couldn't speak a word of the Queen's English?  (Presumably, you can't speak a word of the King's Thai!)

To be forced into living in one of the most boring countries in the world must be torture for someone like you. 

Where I am in Thailand I'm hoping the sun soon burns off the fog and warms the place up enough to go outside.

No matter what you might say...

 

Can we please just agree on one thing:

 

Boom boom boom, is not bad.

 

27 MILLION listeners can't be wrong.

 

Bang, bang, bang, bang......

Was you bought up being told that sex is wrong and bad and that you shouldn't be doing it ?

   Did you go to a Catholic school ?

What used to be a nice summer day where I lived in America is now a cold Thai day.  (lived on the north coast of California a hot summer day was around 22)

I'm pleased I have a follower ???? but why so vindictive, bit weird, no?? Now off you trot, your sticky rice is getting cold.

 

And yes, most of my time here is torture, easily one of the most boring countries on earth. Awful, insignificant, dull, corrupt country. Okay for a holiday, but to live here is a mugs game, but you carry on with the denial old fellow.

What is it that you don't understand, my friend?

 

Are you so NAÏVE that you still insist that your youth is eternal?

 

Get real, my friend.

 

Your clock is ticking.

Just wait, and see.

I was actually following the mercurial Gamma G, when you pasted a piece of rubbish in the middle of his thread.

I checked back on your history to ascertain exactly how sad an individual you are, living somewhere you hate with a wife who scares you. I know you would never have the courage to tell me to my face to trot off !

I certainly am not, nor ever could be, a follower of yours.

 

I'll concede you something, a few minutes ago a vender delivered my wife a couple of bamboo tubes with some sort of sticky rice concoction inside.

Where did I say I wasn't getting old, and/or won't get old?? Read back, what I said is it makes my skin crawl old timers discussing sex on a message board. What is it that YOU didn't understand??

Men like sex and people get older everyday .

Good morning GG and all other tv users. 

I just arrived from EU yesterday, and you can take it from me, the weather is already warmer in this wonderful country. 

Its great to be back!!! 

@GammaGlobulin

 

I thought somebody here said that many westerners are leaving Thailand for various reasons including that the Chinese is getting closer. They already built a high speed railway into Laos.

 

So you are the few who decide to stay?

Funny enough Kunming is the one city in China that I want to go to, due to no smog, nice climate etc, and this new line runs from Kunming-Vientiane. So if the world ever opens again properly I will look into this.

Good Morning to you, also.

 

a.  You are correct.  This is a wonderful land.

b.  I can imagine just how thankful you must feel to be back.

c.  Some guys, who live here, for ages and ages, somehow forget how lucky they are.

d. At the moment, the weather is about 14 degrees C, in the early morning.  Not especially cold, but just a bit too crisp for some.

 

Again, Good Morning to you.

 

You are lucky to have returned.
