Yes I probably could visit Thailand every year if I economized on every other aspect of my life for the rest of the year, but the reason I don't is that it would be horrible having to leave again and return to this life for 11 months. I made my bed and now I must lie in it for better or worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is accepting a life that isn't. Most of my good times were either young or in Thailand. My mate in his 70s says the same. 10 years in Thailand best years. I dont know any happy 70yos in the west. All unhappy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isnt that just how you perceive it, as reflecting backward at something that is "history" and not focussing on going forward. Lifeis exactly what you choose to make of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still able to put my pants on all by myself every day. I'm a big boy and can make my own decisions without being told what to do by you. Certainly don't need your criticism. Bye.

thaibeachlovers Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I was giving this topic some consideration and came to the conclusion that I fall in love with women all the time, but not real ones. Much safer, can't get an STD or unwanted baby, and don't need presents, dinners or wedding rings. Seems the internet does have something I like, after all.
