kreon Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 (edited) although i live about 6 years at my apartment, i find that there is a lot of gossiping going on about my life-style i know this from the visits of some of my gf's, who are often told about the number of other females being entertained at my place why don't thai's mind their own business and respect other peoples privacy is this so bad and is it common all over the place what's your experiences with this, how do you handle this, apart from moving to a house which i hate Edited January 27, 2005 by kreon
penelope Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 why don't thai's mind their own business and respect other peoples privacy <{POST_SNAPBACK}> last time I checked, gossiping was common the world over
britmaveric Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 An old saying don't sh*#e where you eat!!! If everyone knows your gf in your building it isnt the brightest thing to bring other ladies around now is it?
ProfessorFart Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 Read 'The Judgement' ( 'คำพิพากษา' ) by Chart Korpjitti!! It's also the basis for the film 'Ai Fak'
penzman Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 One of my wife's co-workers once received a present. A brand new dog muzzle. She was unleashed from the office later on.
Team Bukowski Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 the thai's in the office I work at are woeful for gossiping. I have lunch with one girl, and that afternoon its right through the office that we're "together". I wish!
Head Snake Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 It was explained to me that gossip is prevalent mainly because of boredom. If someone is staying home, what else is there to do besides talk about others? Because you are an "outsider", you are an easy target. Let them have their fun.
sua yai Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 I reckon there's a thin and dangerous line between gossiping to relieve boredom and malacious gossip/rumours. When I came over years ago, the ex and I ran a sucessful bar in town. It didn't take long for the dirt to start flying - I'd been seen walking down the road with another woman. I'd been seen buying a bar girl a drink etc etc. Whilst it didn't particularly bother me, it certainly did the ex. And she was fiery!! Never was able to fully convince the ex, though. All that stemmed out of jealousy. Beware the green eyed monster.

I have lunch with one girl, and that afternoon its right through the office that we're "together". I wish! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Very similar experiences - give them the slightest impression (if any impression at all) that something's going on, the Thai staff here jump on it and then some. My g/f also works in the office with me. When we first started dating, we made an agreement - the first sign of gossip about us around the office, instantly go public with what's going on. This way, they've got nowt to gossip about! Worked a treat
HarryHacker Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 For sure they gossip, especially about Farangs. I'm the only Farang in the company where I work and for sure I would never ever '<deleted> on my doorstep' Furthermore, I never discuss anything I get up to outside. If any GF wants to call me they must only use my mobile number, never to call my office etc etc. Next month I'm moving to a new Serviced Apartment which has a reception unlike where I have stayed in the past, normal Condo......yep its going to be interesting to see the reaction once they discover my 'butterfly' lifestyle!
pedro01 Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 An old saying don't sh*#e where you eat!!! If everyone knows your gf in your building it isnt the brightest thing to bring other ladies around now is it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Exactly - I presume number of ladies means lots of prostitutes brought back home. Wouldn't you expect people to gossip about this back home ? Why should Thailand be any different - you think the whole society here is 'at one' with Nana Plaza ???

Petesear Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 Come on... A tart might blend into the crowd outside Nana, but that's about it... If you think otherwise you are kidding yourself..

Petesear Posted January 27, 2005 Posted January 27, 2005 I think you are mising the point, people will always gossip and being seen with or visiting a girl, or boy, who everyone call tell is a ho gives them fuel to gossip...

On the other hand, I cant understand what Thai ppl are gossipping.
