FolkGuitar Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Before I got married, I always found plenty of women in supermarkets. Based on what they had in their baskets, one can tell if they were buying for one or a family. And sooo many of them want to come to the aid of a poor helpless male who has absolutely no idea how to tell if this melon is ripe or how to cook a chicken! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time you drive past any shopping mall or large shop at closing time, usually 8 or 9 pm, pay attention to the girls standing outside, looking at their phones. They are waiting to be picked up. Also the Thai guys parked on their bikes, waiting for their girlfriend to finish work. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackGats Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 On mongering sites some men will like to brag about pulling freebies (or pulling working girls below list-price). Endless discussions would ensue. Such endless discussions were not so common in earlier internet days, when posting pictures of the girls was ok, indeed expected. A pic would often reveal we're not talking about the same types of girls lookswise. It is funny though how inveterate sex-tourists often feel the need to distance themselves from their peers. What they need asking is why would female employees in a country like Thailand be easier than say the ones in Toronto or Stockholm? If you can pull freebies in Thailand so can you in your own country. Why then do you save all year long to be able to afford flights half-way around the world to hot mosquito-ridden countries where you can't stand the food, don't understand the language, and often risk being robbed at knifepoint? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, go to homepro and look at the bike parking section by the side of the building. Hundreds of mopeds. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You haven't, you're just speculating. I don't understand how things like this just go off topic and get into arguments. Everyone that lives here has seen thousands of Thai girls on scooters with Thai boys, many being picked up at all types of locations. This is about people looking for Thai girls at places other than bars, where somewhat normal Thai girls work. Again, most Thai women want Thai men. Not because they have more money, are better looking or are great prospects as husbands or fathers. We all know the endgame of most Thai women that live here. They want other Thais because they can relate to them in language and culture much easier than with a foreigner. Women are attracted to men for all their own reasons, the same exact way they are in all other countries. This being a very poor country, they are also attracted to men for their money. This also happens everywhere else, but many countries have women who are more independent than here, which means they use physical attraction more than cash attraction. Gold diggers are everywhere, and they are another breed 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought to myself if I were desperate and dateless I would probably pull this girl. She could be mine. Thais have loads of different smiles that they use. The smile she gave you- I very much doubt that it indicated that she was ready willing and able to get involved with some random farang that just wanted a free bedmate. I don't think they are that desperate. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly a nonsense here. The UK does have a lot of knife crime, but I'm willing to bet Thailand rivals it. You will never get the amount of crime coverage here as you do in the UK. This is a tourist spot, and a lot of what goes on is swept under the table. You can look it up because crimes are reported ................https://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/compare/Thailand/United-Kingdom/Crime 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgrahmm Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 So, what do you get from the DIY store?...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MangoKorat Posted April 16 Popular Post Share Posted April 16 Is the OP assuming that he can pick up salesgirls in DIY stores simply because they are bored or speak to him - which is their job by the way? You can meet girls in Thailand in just the same ways as you can in (most) your home countries but away from the P4play areas, the normal rules of attraction apply. However, having dated a few 'normal' girls in Thailand, I learned there is no guarantee that they aren't more interested in your wallet than anything else. The chances of that increase as you get older. Sales staff are often paid on commission so its not unusual for them to talk to a customer, be friendly or follow them around. I wouldn't naturally assume that just because I had a laugh and a joke with a salesgirl, that she was interested in dating and: 'if I were desperate and dateless I would probably pull this girl. She could be mine' You WOULD, would you? And what if she wasn't interested? Should they all be attracted to the OP simply because he's a foreigner? I would need a bit more of a 'come on' than a salesgirl simply being nice to me. I did once though, whilst opening my bank account, get asked about my marital status - single - to which the reply came "oh, I am 30 and have no boyfriend" - that I saw as a come on. Lucky though, I didn't act on it, she's still at the branch 10 years later and looks like the back end of a bus - mind you, she probably thinks the same too 😁. Contrary to popular belief, most half decent looking young Thai girls have at least one boyfriend already and although they may not display the fact, many are married. I'm not saying this applies to the OP but there are a fair proportion of foreigners in Thailand that think all Thai girls are available and 'gagging for it'. Probably based on the fact that they are a 'hansum man' in Sukhumvit. 1 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ChaiyaTH Posted April 16 Popular Post Share Posted April 16 8 hours ago, advancebooking said: There are armies of single, bored and desperate girls at hardware stores such as HomePro, ThaiWatsu etc across Thailand. I was recently at the latter shopping for a bathtub. 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'. I thought to myself if I were desperate and dateless I would probably pull this girl. She could be mine. 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. This is like the third phase ignorance (first being a tourist, second being a newbie expat and third being this stage). Anyway, P4P is with any girl sooner or later, if not, you should be worried what is going on or you have a very very rare exception. It also only counts in that case if you were together 2-3 years or longer. Aside from that, what is actually new on what you are saying, there is single girls anywhere, most of them might smile and joke with you, just because they are bored and get commissions on purchases aside from having a good look on performance. Few are actually interested in actually dating a farang, most even have bf/husband/kids. Just because they still look relatively young, smile at you and give a good chat or service, doesn't mean that a Thai girl is into you, let alone wants to date of fk you. This is some really delusional stuff that many foreigners here seem to believe, even after years of living here, if they only understood Thai, they would know within minutes. 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
