What a bunch of jealous crap

I mean it looks nice - sitting there looking at the empty train tracks in the fresh air - but a bit sterile. A bit cold too. I am in Melbourne now - similar. Lovely to be home. But next month nice to be back with a bit of Thai fun and culture etc. Then back home.

    I’m more curious where you live that’s so flawless. A utopia, is it? No drunks, no dodgy headlines, no locals behaving badly… just everyone sipping herbal tea and filing their taxes early?

    Why do you have such a compulsion to post dispiriting content on this forum. That’s the question you should be asking.

I completely agree it's sterile and unfriendly. Obviously I wasn't taking rooftop pics views while taking a walk and trolling. Beautiful breathable air for big city too.

However the city is not unsafe and it is extremely efficient. To say it is unsafe and a craphole compared to pattaya is having a jealous fit.

Looks pretty cool. I have only been to the west coast - Vancouver and Victoria - a family member lived in Seattle so I had a look. My post was seconds after yours where you said something similar.

If you said it's a boring soulless city I would agree. But to say unsafe especially if you live in a chithole like pattaya, you are obvious making stuff up out of jealousy

Most western cities are boring. Clean and well run but no soul. Bangkok has loads of soul! It is just dirty.

When, if ever, have you been in any Western Cities, and if so which ones?

I certainly don't live in Pattaya. How very dare you!

Nothing against the place (well, not much anyway) but certainly would never consider living there.

You repeat the same brainless trolls everyday. You obviously know nothing about Thailand. 11 years on here wasting your life with trash talk. Well done!

NO.

Why would one?

Read Thailand news daily, Phuket has taken Pattaya place long time ago, for total mayhem and chaos.

Pattaya in comparison to Phuket, Pattaya is lame these days.

OP suffer Thailand blues, back in cold and expensive farang country ....

Let's see OP's weather:

Canada is boring and cold alot of the year, there's a reason Canadians live in Thailand, Pattaya isn't unsafe unless you go to bars late at night and look for trouble.

I've travelled all over the world, never bothered with Canada, there was always a better option

Ok, we are there again! Freddy had a long boring rant. Nobody in the whole wide world have more experience and knowledge than you, Freddy.

I know what you will reply now. It will be that you never said you know more and have wider experience. However, that´s how it's always written, read and sound.

You are also superior when it comes to treating women, as you do all a man can do, and even things that many won´t do. The reality again, is that you do all you can do, and all that you want to do. What that is nobody knows. After that, you live in the bubble that people who don´t believe you or disagree with you, are less of a man. They have less experience and know less than you.

It´s just sad, when you are such a good man, that you couldn´t keep it together. That with 2 women who gave you children!? You know, if it is like below:

This is what you want people to believe. Sure, it might be true or not. We don´t know that too. However, if a woman has all these features and abilities, then I am pretty sure that most semi-intelligent men, with as much experience as you say you have, would have seen that before making babies.

After that, we come to this one. Just because I posted I had greater experience with women than you, your defense mechanism went into auto gear. Then you try to wave that away with that I am counting women I just met in the street. I think it´s you that owns that problem. Sounds like it anyway.

Now, Freddy! Keep your words and ignore. Otherwise, it makes you stand out as a liar.

No, you're the liar, as you take what I said and turn it around. My trust is the truth. Sorry you can't seem to digest that but again, as always ,,it's on you. Try taking English comprehension lessons, as many things you think I've said I haven't. I don't need a defense mechanism, as I again, treat women and children very well, and you keep forgetting that my ex's wanted to come back to me, and I got custody of the children. Your limited life experience shows you can't fathom what that means. Again, try to live your live, no mater how screwed up it is, and stay out of others you know little about, as it isn't your business, and just by you making it your business, shows your life isn't much to speak of.

Again you assume things, as usual. it might be a good idea for you to take English comprehension lessons, as many things I say you seem to misinterpret, turn around, or completely forget, preferring to hear yourself talk, which means nothing here, and is a gross exaggeration of what I've been saying all along.

Try to remember the main things. My truth is the truth. You have nothing to say about this, as again, you weren't there, so anything you do say will again show jealousy and ignorance to the facts. Those being, my two ex's that I had children with, wanted to come back. cheat on and hit everyone they're with including now, including the children, and I got custody of those children, which you might not understand, having that limited life experience with women, and families in general, and what it takes for a man to get custody in the west. Here, women get them because the men never fight for them.

I couldn't keep what together? Did you bother reading, and possibly comprehending, what I wrote, seeing you just quoted me? Maybe your wife in the west wasn't the problem but you? Then you came here and got another one, who might be the dominant one in the family, where you give her cash and do everything she asks. WE could say the same things about you that you assume about me.

I don't need a defense mechanism against people like you. I prefer showing them just how ignorant they are, and that you keep coming back time and again, helps my cause nicely.

There is always a better option than Pattaya. According to Grok it should not even be the option.

God, I love AI. It will prove the final nail in the coffin for delusional sexpats. Starting with Wise!

Toronto was cold.... with winds that blow right through you...and that was in May.

But of course this thread has degenerated into complete nonsense, c/o your good self, @Rockyroad AI and one or two brain dead idiots only capable of one-liners.

It's easy to focus on the most extreme aspects, but also extremely childish. Find a place that suits you. It great that not everyone is heading to the same place. That way you can find yourself a nook by exploring for yourself, instead of following AI recommendations and/or being put off by toxic posters choosing to spread their negativity.

Both places have their pros and cons.

I agree, Each and every day of the nine years I lived there was a new adventure. I woke up every morning with the mental equivalent of a smile, thinking to myself, "What will happen today?"

The condo I had in central Pattaya was the functional equal of the one I'd had in the U.S., but at one-sixth of the monthly rent I had paid in metro NYC. I had shops, banks, barbers, laundry, doctor and dentist offices and everything else I needed in everyday life within walking distance. I had access to high-speed Internet and hundreds of TV channels at a very low cost. Restaurants abounded, with all sorts of great food at a pittance.

Beer bars with hostesses were literally next door and nightlife areas like Walking Street, LK Metro and Soi 6 were in easy walking or baht bus distance. Day or night, drunk or sober, it never felt unsafe as long as I avoided boozed up younger farang guys out for trouble.

The only things I really missed were proper sidewalks, traffic lights at all intersections and metered taxis that could be hailed on the street. In terms of the big picture, those were minor factors.
