Popular Post bob smith Posted March 3 Popular Post Share Posted March 3 (edited) Temptation is everywhere in Thailand, from the countless bars that open their doors at 8am, to the lovely young girl dressed in a short skirt that grabs you by the arm as you walk down the street, it’s all around us. yet many seem to resist such things, or live so far in the boonies that they never come across it. when one lives in or frequents a tourist ghetto then it is very easy to slip into a life of alcoholism, drug abuse and casual sex. I am a victim of such vices, I find it extremely hard if not impossible to resist the temptations that come along with living life as an expat in Thailand. god help me. bob.

You look at the temptation, and instead of getting all anxious and compulsive about it, you just relax and turn your attention somewhere else. No temptation, no thought, no emotion, lasts longer than 90 seconds in our brain. from the time that biochemical neural impulse is created until it is reabsorbed and ends. Even nicotine cravings and the hot-flashes of menopause pass quickly. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MangoKorat Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 (edited) 8 hours ago, bob smith said: it is very easy to slip into a life of alcoholism, drug abuse and casual sex. On alcoholism and drug abuse, I don't agree. I've been travelling to Thailand for over 20 years and living there in and off. I enjoy a few drinks when I go out but I haven't indulged in any form of drugs for many years and even then it was just weed. Its a bit sad if you can't have a good night out without getting legless or high. Casual sex however...................got me there. I admit to being an addict. However, that's one addiction I have no intention of fighting. Edited March 3 by MangoKorat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post fredwiggy Posted March 3 Popular Post Share Posted March 3 When you have someone in your life, and look at her as more than a body, resisting is what happens. I've been with her over 3 years, and have many women give me the "look", as I'm in pretty good shape for 67, and although I know it's the cash they're thinking more of, you can tell when they are attracted to you. When you care for someone, and really love them, you don't hurt them, period, no matter what crosses your path. There are untold numbers of pretty women here, but again, if you're really a man, all you need is one good one. I can see how many are tempted with these girls, as to me they are the prettiest on earth, so you have to think of what it will do to your relationship, how it will make her feel, and how it will make you feel if you have a conscience. 1 1 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVENKEEL Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Well Bob, haven't had a beer or a cigar in a week. I loved that, a few ice cold beers with a cigar. But it gets old and I just stopped. The destruction of my family for a little strange just isn't worth it, what would my kid say? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it all when I was younger and grew up. Easy girls and party Im done, Whats the fun with it? Makes it hard to have an healthy relationship and keep your health, have a stable and and a good life involves all of that, not endless restless partiea, and the same happens over and over again and again. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to not drink as it causes hangovers. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
