JimTripper Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) That's a better ice breaker then what I usually hear. At least is was not where are you from and what do you do? I even had a couple people plainly ask about source of income. Edited August 28, 2022 by JimTripper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? Let's say you're in the business of organizing pool parties in luxury hotels or something like that. Wouldn't you hire a team of guys to run around Pattaya to "invite" people to your event? Honestly I'm pretty sure you'd find many of these schemes out there today if you wanted to. A guy on the bus, a guy at the beach, a guy at the swimming pool, a guy at the pier, a guy at you name it. My memories are a bit fuzzy but if I remember well Russians were very much into this at some point, weren't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people feel nervous about being in a foreign country so they will set themselves up as a big brother, expert or advice giver and kind of seek out newbies who look up to them. It comes across as strange if your used to a location where that does not occur. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gargamon Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 I have had similar occurrences. One was a white guy who started talking to me while we were sitting at a bar eating breakfast. All the same questions as i the OP. He was clearly looking for a newbie so he could feel like a god when he doled out his wisdom. He soon figured out I knew more about I knew more about what was going on than he did and left me alone. Interestingly enough, I rented a townhouse in the area and one of my neighbors wouldn't do anything without approval of the breakfast bar guy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy was a self-proclaimed expert knowing everything about bars, pubs, gogos, massages, etc... Why would a guy like that be nervous about being in Thailand when he comes here every year or so? I don't know, man. You might be right but I'm pretty sure you ain't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nervous was probably the wrong word I used. It's more like insecurity. He can be confident and outgoing, but he is insecure. Pattaya is filled with people with problems. You will learn to see that the harder you look under the surface. Under the bright lights, cheap thrills and drinking is a lot of shady stuff about why people wash up here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
