Pretty much what a good friend did back when I lived in New Jersey. Very obnoxious man, but outgoing and would ask girls out all day long. Most wouldn't bother talking to him, let alone accept a date, but by the numbers he got dates, and a couple would sleep with him. No fear whatsoever talking as he knew by percentages he would win.

AKA the Boomhauser approach.

You've come to the right place, ask our many knowledgeable members.

Most here are constantly having, beautiful, young woman coming on to them.

Just ask them, it's the guy sat in a soi Buakhou bar, these guys are the sexiest. 😂

No need to be so coy. Aren't you the one boasting have a new, young hottie and claiming in another thread that you know loads of bar girl/sex workers?

Of course, you could simply be @georgegeorgia's note taker on his prolific research of Pattaya's sweaty underbelly.

I'm still angry with Georgie, he said he was going to take fruit to the Aussie murderer. 😡

Dear Folks,

Even though I am very old, yet still…

Sometimes, and not infrequently, I notice, or “feel”,  that younger women are “coming on” to me.

But, how can I be sure?

Are there any “sure” ways to tell?

I am the bashful type.

And, most Thai girls are bashful, too.

Sometimes, and very often, their overtures are just too subtle for words.

And so, I would not want to mistake “come on” signals for other signals, such as….

Some girl’s vague curiosity about why my fly has been left undone, and not fully zippered up.

I realize that most of the guys on TV are older than I, and so I am asking for advice.

More specifically, my question is how do old men know when young women are giving them “the eye”...???....

I mean, that…Come Hither Look….

During my younger years, just because I was worried about getting my signals crossed, I lost many good opportunities, and slept alone, as a result.

But now that I am very old, I worry that I might repeat the mistakes of my youth, and never sleep with anyone, ever again.

What I mean is that:  Sometimes, you just get the feeling that girls are looking at you, in the right way. And, you suspect that they might want to go to bed with you, too.

Crucially, in my case, I’m just asking:  How do you tell?  How can you be sure?

How can you be very sure BEFORE you open your mouth, or rest your hand on hers, and then quickly learn that you had made a total fool of yourself…just because…

You got your signals crossed.

And she is rolling on the floor with a mixture of laughter and disgust.

Any words of advice, or…

What is your technique?

How do you know, for sure?


Thank you.

Two possibilities for the geriatrics...

a) They're not coming-on-to the old grippers, they're coming-on-to their wallet - they're being chased by brass and failing to read the room.

b) The dribbling old boomers have entered the "uncle" zone and are so non-threatening that they're simply mistaking politeness for flirtation...

...Imagine the Line group chats... She held the lift for one shuffling old fart and now he's telling his mates, "Still got it"..... Meanwhile she's messaging hers: "eiiwwww... I accidentally smiled at one. He followed me out of the lift like he'd just matched with me on Tinder"...

I read in a book — long time ago — that when a man passes the 40-years age limit, he converts to 'the payment class'...

A benefit in Thailand is, when reaching the age level and older, that if you look like you can be an excellent provider — and I'm not talking about flashing 1,000-baht notes in a go-go- or ladybar — you increase the interest from young females looking for a 'a good man'. There seems to be numerous of women, and many of them also seems to be quite attractive.

What might increase the interest — so, you're looking like both driving Mercedes-class or higher and having savings enough — is how you dress, how proper and respectable you look, and your attitude of being a polite gentleman. Rich people often dress casual — but with style — and don't need to flash brands and money; they already have all that stuff. Also, a smile might make a huge difference.

So, OP @GammaGlobulin , dress right, behave and get out in the more hi-so levelled places — there you might have a huge chance of meeting females interested in 'good men' over 40 — however, be aware out there, it's also the hunting field for gold diggers...thumbsup

I will not only be aware out there, as you say.

I will beware, too....

Thank you!

That's not entirely true,

Thai relationships are a total poop show, nearly all my wifes pals (mid 40s) are single moms, completely broke and fishing around for their kids Government schools fees (5kbht x2 a year). No need to go in a bar to find them.

Most guys don't get that far. They don't have a clue. If you have a decent income and bypass Pattaya and the other traps. Small town Thailand is a gold mine. I totally enjoyed my time there ,and I don't drink and never went in a bar in Thailand.

Sure signs are when the girl says :

" handsum man were you going "

or

"sexy man i want bum bum with u"

I guess it's partly intuitive and partly just the physical aspect of the whole thing. As far as dating Thai women and approaching strangers it is very easy. If you have some game, if you have a great sense of humor, and are able to make them laugh and feel relaxed, if you are decent looking, and dress decently, and are well groomed, it can be quite easy here.

Generally, Thai woman are very comfortable with their femininity, with flirting, and open to talking with someone who approaches them, very unlike women in the West, these days. Of course, it also depends on who you pursue. If you are going after wealthy women, who are wearing $3,500 outfits, you will likely get turned down. Either that or you're in for some very deep expenses!

If you are in your 30's, Thailand is your oyster. Even older men can have all kinds of soccess here. There are hundreds of thousands of good looking, younger Thai women who are open to being with a foreigner, as long as he is financially stable. 98% of women want that stability. You simply need to be very assertive, have some game, hopefully have a minimal amount of bling, and a great sense of humor. If you can get them to laugh within a few moments of striking up a conversation with them, you are on your way. I would look within greater Pattaya, Bangkok, and even small towns. Gals who work in hotels, restaurants, retail stores, etc. Stay away from the beach areas, and you will be fine finding a real civilian.

Step up to the plate often, and just approach as many strangers are you can. Make a sport of it.

Mike, you are 100% spot on! When my son was entering high school, he asked me about approaching girls. He was thin, athletic, and top of his class. I told him that girls do not know you're interested unless you let them know. I told him about by Miss, Miss, Hit Theory, if you keep going, the odds are for you that one is going to hold on ... a solid hit. I gave him a few simple lines to use, too ... if they say No, tell them you were hoping they'd use a bigger word like Yes ... most will give even a small smile and you're in! Just make them smile and a laugh!

Nothing better to date women than making them laugh and listening, as a lot of men don't understand the power knowing how to listen gives them.

Making them smile and laugh and paying attention to things they are attracted to works a lot of the time. I have 5 girls so listening came easier. Also looking in their eyes when you talk.

They can be attracted to you and you'll never know until you try.

Like I mentioned about my friend who asked out girls all day long, and eventually got some to go with him, and he was a little overweight and average looking.

The level of risk in Thailand is very low. Even if you get turned down, there is little collateral damage. You won't lose your job, you won't get arrested and you likely won't even get thrown out of the bar. Just don't be a complete jerk.

Reader's Digest is still printing in the US, but seeing you haven't been there for decades, there's things about the US you wouldn't know. They are digital in some areas.
