Sometimes I start a conversation with a stranger, and sometimes a stranger starts a conversation with me. I met interesting people that way. I think the important part it that we or the other guy doesn't have to answer. Or maybe just nod and that's it. I wouldn't want to try to talk to someone 3 times and he ignores me 3 times. Or the other way around. But in my experience that happens seldom. On the other hand, many people write that they have no friends. Or complain that others only look at their phones. I think there is nothing wrong with meeting new people. Some people shout at them to F Off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some constantly annoying people that is a good way to make sure they never do it again. The important part is that there is not always the same solution. Sometimes A makes sense, and sometimes B, and sometimes maybe C or D. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had a larger apartment then they would seek this attention from you? It's common for people that are unsatisfied to seek out others to talk about their problems. Typically a box shoe room causes dissatisfaction in most people. A lot of guys in Pattaya are single and live in box shoe rooms. That pretty much leaves other expats hanging around that venue or prostitutes to talk to. You do also get a handful of guys that seem to love cheap places, it's up to you whether you interpret that as genuine or denial. If you goto higher end properties you don't get that nagging as much. People there keep to themselves much more or they tend to be happier staying in their living quarters more. Edited May 4 by JimTripper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just past Soi 1 BeachRd. Jomtien, you see a newish red Building. Ground floor has a Gym with Aircon. Its not freezing cold and its not too expensive, you even get free cold water (but bring your own bottle). Btw. does Tonys still sell lifetime Memberships for 6k baht, or was it 10K? Anyway, In that case the mentioned Gym may be too expensive for you. I do not want that you can't afford the aircon in your shoebox and then it will be as hot in your shoebox as the shoebox of the other Gents you complain about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is from NZ , he is very foolish with his money and invited some Thai guys and their girlfriends around that he had met a week before at the markets , apparently they had market stalls I only found out later he wanted to put in 500b to buy them beer and prawns to sharec He later complaint to me the thai people had used him and wanted gasoline money in which one Thai guy actually asked me for , I said to him to ask Eric the guy who invited them,nothing to do with me gasoline money Anyway Eric had run out of money and they didn't bring anything to the party he said ,we had to buy the prawns and beer , I told him he shouldn't of invited them over ,for what reason? I left after one hour anyway ,they wernt keen on a conversation and kept guzzing down the beer! The audacity of one of the Thai guys with his GF to ask be for gasoline money I was out of there after one hour ,!

Exactly, when I go to a bar it is for a drink and some company. That's either going to be with a girl or a chat with a fellow farang and maybe a laugh or two. If the OP cannot handle social situations then maybe he's better off in his room or sitting on his balcony (if he has one). 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I moved next door to my wife -to a veritable shoe box- my happiness has amped up a whole letter grade. I feel like I have been moving towards a mini-fridge lifestyle my whole life. I don't think I can ever go back to having separate fridge door for a freezer compartment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet, in the face of this most elemental of social encounters, you say you were completely stumped and slack-jawed agog. You say you need "a warning" to discuss chaffing. How does that even work?
