spidermike007 Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) We lived in the south for many years. Alot of hot headed people down there. This guy was NOT a close friend. Not sure what world he comes from, but in my world close friends do not kill each other. With friends like that, who needs enemies? What can one even say?

Tropposurfer Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Again. Yet another confirmation of why I never drink with or around 'local' Thais.

Golden Triangle Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Another one, we read the same story every week or so it seems, I try not to get too close to Thai people, simply because I don't want to be a statistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming you wouldn't do anything to provoke them and have an understanding of how to behave in their company..... why would you be afraid of drinking around locals?

I always figured friends were a little bit easy come, easy go in Thailand. Kind of friends with everyone so close friends with no one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
