teej Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Hi People, I'm new to the forum here, just found it while surfing the web in a fit of boredom tonight... Quick question: Does anybody remember an article by the Asian Wall Street Journal awhile ago that featured a story on a female professional expat working in Bangkok finding it hard to get into the dating scene here? It was about a specific, and very interesting woman (i think she worked for L'Oreal) regarding how she found it a bit different (the dating scene) between her home country in the west and her surrogate country here in Thailand... Anyway, I was intrigued by this woman and the article, and while I was reading it, all i could think to myself was, "Why doesn't the article have her freakin email address??" She sounded like a grounded professional just falling on hard times here cuz of the cultural divide... I wanted to take her out on a date! (Sadly, there was no picture... but who knows, maybe she was a stunner... she sure sounded like one!) BTW, I'm a Thai-American guy, late 20's, just moved to Bangkok not so long ago from the West, as such I have a different view on dating than most of the Thai ladies therefore never date them... but I don't quite know where to meet the expatriates in normal settings in this town... nothing particular in mind, just need some friends that I can relate to, that's all... did i say I'm a total Hottie? haha. Anyway, I'm rambling... Original question was did anyone read this article that I'm referring to? And better yet, does anyone have that woman's phone number!!!! Cheers, Teej Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britmaveric Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I'm sure if anyone who did know who you were referring to certainly wouldnt pass along her number to anyone on the internet - no matter how great he sounded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I remember that article but it didn't have any contact details for her but if your serious why not contact the BKK post & ask them to forward your details to her. And if memory serves me she wasn't bad looking either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kat Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 Girlx. Maybe, maybe not. It depends on whether or not he's only interested in rich corporate ladies featured in newspaper articles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girlx Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 since it's his first post it seems so much like an ad to me- or he's some kind of psycho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teej Posted October 29, 2005 Author Share Posted October 29, 2005 Geez I was just making a passing comment about an article I came across in the Asian WSJ. No, I don't expect to get this woman's phone number, nor was i seriously asking for it. No, I am not a psycho, nor am I desperate. In addition, I am not a gigolo. A simple comment (did I insult all of you people??) in a forum that I just felt like making a post in. I don't think it's within anyone's rights to pass judgement on me based on a post I made in the forum. If I offended anyone, then I aplologize. Thanks for the warm welcome.
