September 16, 2025Sep 16 You must be "hansum man". Never happens to me. I find the only Thais outside my family that interact with me are GF's friends if they bump into me somewhere, the trainers at my gym, and staff in shops, restaurants and supermarkets etc. Extremely rare for a Thai to just approach me out of the blue. In fact the only time it happens is normally a lottery ticket seller if I am sitting in a restaurant or coffee shop. You could try staring at the ground in front of you as you walk. Just avoid eye contact.

It seems you may have insecurity issues and lack the confidence to be seen. Would it not be easier to solve why you want to be invisible and alter yourself so you don't need to be invisible? I want to be invisible because I find other people's energy draining and distracting. I can't "hear" my true will when it's mixed together with someone needing something or wanting to connect for some reason. When that happens my energy and attention is directed towards them and not me, or it's directed on just something other then my own goals and needs.

Seriously, if you pretend to be a nutter, then almost everybody (Thai and farang) will steer well clear of you. I've found thatit also works with aggressive dogs. I wouldn't want to try tying a sunflower to the end of an aggressive dog's todger.

September 16, 2025Sep 16 Easy solution. Don't go out and close the blinds on your windows. Back in your home country did anyone have the audacity to speak to you? If so how did you handle that? It may help if companies were not allowed to sell customers data.

I think I'd rather buy a place with acreage and a nice iron fence around it or a moat. I'm an outdoor guy and don't like blinds or being indoors much. Hopefully, you won't come around knocking, or if you make up an excuse to do so you just get a big nothing burger and I never know about it.

September 16, 2025Sep 16 No one accosts me. If they say something, I just smile and walk on as if I hadn't heard. One thing I noticed over time is that when you are walking in a straight line, a large number of Thais will walk diagonally across your path. This does not mean they want to interact.

Or you could just move to Alaska

A grey man theory, but just the mental stuff, not so much clothing, etc. Usually that's about blending in, acting as normal as possible and not being remembered. I wanted to take it a step further and not be noticed at all. As part of a more comprehensive training course I once undertook was a weekend learning and practising surveillence techniques. This included following, or losing, subjects on busy city steets on foot and by car. The two guys who ran the training did that work professionally, and were the most nondescript, forgetable people you could imagine. Small builds, ordinary faces, cheapish clothing, no facial hair. They were almost invisible in a crowd. I doubt I would have recognised them in the street a week after the training.

Please post tips on how you behave, interact or not, etc. Things I can do if I just want to be left alone in peace. I can avoid foreigners most of the time with avoidance body language, but the cues don't seem to work with Thai's. I can't seem to get rid of Thai's "coming at me". I have tried various things, like no eye contact, just not responding, responding politely but superficially, not smiling, looking at the phone, etc but nothing seems to work particularly well consistently. Even tried some new age visualization aura shielding stuff. The best technique so far is staring at the phone and not responding, but I can't do that all the time. Trying to avoid people is actually making it worse...?? Sorry if the post seems a tad anti-social... You sound autistic, but my best advice is for you to learn to decline politely, smile, and move on. Does that sound too difficult? Also, you could say Maimingen which sounds like a town in Germany but is actually a very effective way of getting rid of Thais.

You need to learn to ignore people, because at the moment you are your own worst enemy

You need to learn to ignore people, because at the moment you are your own worst enemy I realize that. However, I think at some level I feel responsible for responding or reacting in some way and that's why it bothers me, or why it distracts me at all. I'm not sure why, it could be social norms, upbringing or other things. It could be similar to what scammers look for, people who feel obligated to explain, listen to a message or respond in some way. I would be the last person to be scammed though, so it may be something entirely different.
