Popular Post JimTripper Posted January 2 Popular Post Share Posted January 2 (edited) The reason you are having trouble finding them is because those are not the sort of guys that are attracted to Thailand. 🤔 It's mostly guys who need that female handholding, are drunks, baggage & relationship issues, need ego stroking, etc. Edited January 2 by JimTripper 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prubangboy Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) Why not reach out to people here who are local to you? I've met 2 in Chiang Mai, I'll meet up with another couple I've exchanged PM's with eventually. It would be helpful to broaden your criteria from "must want to talk about what I want to talk about" to "amiable, interesting person who seems to have gotten himself some sort of life". Your age requirement is another self-limiter. Edited January 3 by Prubangboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was some freelancer on her motorbike sitting at the enterance who gave me a 🤙 as I walked towards the enterance. When I went in there were a lot of german guys at beergarden having a beer snd looking like they wanted to meet me. I get guys staring at me all the time that look like they want to talk. I even started doing "tactical sitting" so I'm not facing directly at them during drinks & meals. I don't typically want to talk to another 50's guy during a meal if we are both stag, especially if we have had too many "biers" in the "garten". As for the sitting arrangement, it's rare for him to care which way I'm facing after all. Edited January 3 by JimTripper 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the gym. I've never discussed medication, I don't take any but I'm sure some of the guys do. I don't talk much, mostly just say good morning and the occasional chit chat. There is always a chatterbox at the gym you can get along with. I meet lots of great guys there and quite a few sexy chicks 😎 Edited January 3 by SAFETY FIRST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1FinickyOne Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I doubt there are groups of people who meet to talk about their meds.... But, I do have friends that I can discuss anything with and they are knowledgable on many subjects... I don't even think medication is a main focus for doctors...

KhunLA Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) 19 minutes ago, 1FinickyOne said: You mean like talking w/the body obsessive Scooby -Do ?? Something like that. Was talking to a bud from Udon Thani and we got on subject of forums, as we enjoyed the UT ones for a while. Like myself, he didn't realize AN was TV, and took a peek and decided it was a gay forum ... Said he peeked at the first 10 ish pages of new content, and what stood out, was posts about penises (sizes, wood in the AM.etc etc), ladyboys, homosexuals movies, gender rights, pride parades, and same sex marriage, drag queen hour at schools, libraries, diversity this & that. Hard to argue with his assumption ... Must of peeked when all the gays & bi s were posting. Too funny. When I told him it was rebranded TV, it sunk in, as he also pointed out the non alphabet threads were full of grumpy folks endlessly arguing.

WebGuy Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I am in Bang Bua Thong and drink 5 bottles of beer once a week (doctor's prescription). During that time I talk with my friends around the world online and we call it online beer. No many foreigners here so once a month or in two months I would enjoy live conversation.

Popular Post JimTripper Posted January 3 Popular Post Share Posted January 3 (edited) Another problem I don't think anyone mentioned is that most people you meet at all in Thailand seem very transitory. In other words, they are not really settled in. Even older guys over 50 seem to move around from place to place pretty often. It's like the roots are not there. I noticed this when I first came to Thailand and how many of the people I knew were more like people I would meet at college keg parties, people who I knew who they were but there was no deep friendship. We never talked about meaningful stuff, it was just hanging out and having a good time when we happened to be at the same party. Or, we would get in contact when they were coming into town usually for a gig or concert, then they just disappear until next time.
