Popular Post Celsius Posted April 16 Popular Post Share Posted April 16 This is yet another thread of extremely delusional foreigner in Thailand thinking he is all that. It was quite embarrassing to read and frankly a bit creepy. 1 1 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hummin Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 16 hours ago, Gecko123 said: My suspicion is the OP is misreading nervous giggly laughter at his goofy antics as her being receptive to going out on a date. OK, OK, call me Mr. Negative, but here's why I'm a little skeptical. The woman is probably working 6 days a week, meaning scheduling dates isn't going to be a walk in the park. Also if she's working there's a good chance she's either married, been married, or has kids she has to support. Young kids are going to further eat into her free time. Chances are the entire staff in whatever department she works in, if not the entire store, is going to hear about your romantic overture, and if you actually go out on a date, how it went down, so every time you go back to buy an extension cord be prepared for the knowing looks, and being pointed at and whispered about. If both she and you live near her place of employment, then there's the scuttlebutt issue about her being perceived as skanking around with an older foreign guy, basically getting accused of turning tricks. Should also mention that I've encountered a few "pros" (not prostitutes) working in retail stores. Women who have made it a regular side hustle dating customers. Fees to compensate her for time off from work, baby sitting fees, maybe chaperone fees for someone to accompany her on the first date or two, followed up by dinner at the most expensive restaurant in town, the evening ending with a peck on the cheek and a declination to go out on a second date due to lack of time away from work. Rinse and repeat. I'll admit I've seen some pretty cute girls working in hardware stores. Not sure if all of them have particularly scintillating personalities, but some are quite cute and seem down to earth. By all means give it a shot, but take it slow. It is a fine line between being nice and funny to be a creepy man. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? I thought they want to regale me with their song.. “ Mai Mee, Mai Mee “ Like the chorus in a Greek tragedy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hummin Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 14 hours ago, thaibeachlovers said: You must be incredibly handsome and have such raw sexuality that random women just have to come and make goo goo eyes at you. I shopped at Thai supermarkets ( there are only Thai supermarkets in Thailand ) a lot and no Thai woman ever rushed over to help me decide which brand of baked beans was better. What people missing, is the innocent joking and flirting part, that really doesnt mean much more than a little brake and refreshment of the daily boring routines. Same when I worked as a security, I got alot of attention from women and gay men. Some never understand the innocent pat of these interactions that is just a time breaker if you can say so. Women who are chasing westerns, and go with westerns, have an agenda, and as others have said here, most thai women wants a thai man, and I said most not all.

I asked the girl, aged in late 20s, if I could take my shoes off and get in. After I got in, she smiled at me and I said to her 'come in and join me'. When younger my mates pull line was " Will you have a bath with me? I will take the tap end" This would certainly break the ice with a girl and was quite successful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronster Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Last time I was in homepro with my wife one of the female staff came up to us and started talking to my wife . After she walked off my wife said the woman asked her if I was her husband and she said yes . Then she said the woman told her I was no good as she seen me in a bar talking to another woman 🤔 Luckily my wife knew the woman I was talking to and it was a bar I go to all the time 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shmo Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 I actually don’t like the store environment as much as I like the markets. Early mornings I grab a basket and head to the market for tomatoes and cucumber and there are always several attractive ladies coming in and out. I just walk real slow and compare melons while I’m at it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The are always gossiping, talking behind each other's backs, and not many real friends. One foreigner , who has a lot of money by whatever means he obtained it, gives his woman everything she wants. Big house, cars, scooters, gold, cash to burn. All the other "friends" she has, seeing this, are jealous. They like to show off what they have, not caring what their friends think, as long as they have more. Most foreigners here aren't very wealthy, having more then the average local, and doing well, but to the locals we all are, and this started the ball rolling with them thinking, "if this one has all these things, I want them too". This is why they all think we have money to burn, and it makes us look like walking ATM's, and they all want one of those. I've explained to my girlfriend, and tried to to my ex here, that there are thousands of homeless people, families, in America, that most people are just getting by, that there is people who go without daily food, have no money for medical expenses, are on welfare , food stamps and WIC. Yes, they have bigger houses but pay for them for up to 30 years, and don't own them outright after building like it is here. The jealousy here has women trying to take away what others have, by lying and spreading false rumors. They look for things like you mentioned so they can see you lose your wife, because you have more then she has with either her local boyfriend, husband or neither. You talking to another woman in a bar is okay, of course if that's all that was happening, and it isn't that woman in the store's business, but she jumped at the chance top see you fall, and your wife to lose her breadwinner. I've heard for years by Thais in America, some here, people posting on Stickman's forum, and others the jealousy that happens here, and it seems to be a lot like the lakorns they watch, without the male heroes. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they cute but probably are Thai fembots Mai mee Mai mee, like a broken record I hate it too. 'Can I help You? Well No because you will not understand the next question. Wears me out. Do Home is bad. They have no clue what's in the aisle where they work, and always have to run off an find the only person in the store who knows where things are. Then you wait. One would think that the owners of these stores would require the staff to all eventually learn the names of what is in the aisle they work in. Would that be too difficult? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Homepro I noticed groups of girls standing around bored as hell. Home ceramic and SCG have normal staffing models and thus one will not succeed there. If you are not into P4P girls at the local bar why not go to a hardware store and find some loven? I think even someone with no friends (Bob) might be able to get lucky. cheers.

Only a small minority of those girls are capable of operating a check out machine. And, you KNOW it's true... Recently, I gave a checkout gal 502 baht for a 202 baht bill. Couldn't do it, had to call the manager over. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaibeachlovers Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 1 hour ago, fredwiggy said: It isn't rarely. It happens all the time. More of course with locals because they outnumber us. Even though it's about foreigners, not all crimes against us are reported on the news. It's usually in Bangkok or beach areas that get the most news. Tourists are killed here every year, and that's not rare either. I disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All depends what you're looking for. Anyway you would have to pay for a short fling. Makes it really a difference how you call it? Pay for sex? Buy a prostitute? Use the power of your money? Or what else do those girls see in you? An very old (ugly) horny bastard? Tell me?🙏 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equal for both sexes is unrealistic expectations and lack of understanding for each other..
