Didn't know he was over 40.

OOOH! Don't say that! I just turned 38 and 45 is not that far away!

45 is pretty old. I have never been married to a person that old before. Do they still go out and dance and stuff or just sit around and watch the news on TV?

Anyone that uses the word 'bro'....well, it rules the other posters comments about said poster being articulate and intelligent.

Bikie groupie comes to mind.

No, 45 is way too old for disco stuff.

You know what middle-aged men do: sports; golf; meetings; dinner with clients; going to pubs (not often); drives out into the countryside; renting DVDs; doing the accounts; shopping with the wife/GF; reading the newspaper; etc, etc.

How about you?

I flirt with the nurses at the hospital while they wheel me around in a chair and take my blood pressure. Better there because they have a crash cart ready in case I have a heart attack or OD on Viagra.biggrin.png

There is still a negative perception back home. I often find myself stating my GF's or Ex's profession etc etc soon after I state her nationality.

The reality is many untraveled people think that Thailand is just rice, beaches, longnecks, and whores.

In America they think it is Taiwan. I know. I have a facebook page and all my kids and old friends are there.smile.png They know it's in Asia but beyond that and their local Thai restaurant only Vietnam Vets have a clue.

]Yeah, when I go back it's "So you speak Tawainese?"

I blame it on 1 mandatoy geography classes but learning about the civil war 6 times throughout middle to highschool....

Your obviously meeting a different or wrong sort of woman - depending on what you want.

Or are you talking about yourself?

Interesting that he mentioned 'disco' .....cheesy.gif

Depends on what 'Western public perception' you're talking about. Thailand played host to 20 million tourists last year. The vast majority of them came for a holiday, had a good time, went home and recommended the place to their friends. 99.3475% of them didn't take a Thai wife home.

So 130,500 of those tourists last year did take a Thai wife home? Where did you source your statistics? Or are you just talking crap?

As for how I compare to those two examples success-wise . . . well let's see. I don't have their money for sure but I do have the joie de vivre that comes with being relatively youthful, healthy and financially solvent. I'm unburdened by divorce settlement baggage, I have the freedom to do what I want, when I want without anybody else's say-so and I'm comfortable in my own skin.

Trust me, you are way past your sell by date and getting the same sorts of girls as the rest of us old farts.

45 or 65, it doesn't make a difference, you are OLD and no longer hansum.

Ha! No way, Tommo. I doubt very, VERY much that you and I deal with women of similar calibre. I, for example, would never, ever knock around with the kind of woman who would agree to marry a fella after an interview and a shag. Perish the thought.

This is my main squeeze. Let's have a peek at yours

Apple3.jpg26032011135.jpg

As for being 45, you're only as young as you feel and trust me, an absence of emotional baggage, stress, a healthy fitness regime and Afro-Caribbean roots don't hurt one's chances with women either. While other men my age are expanding at the waistline and immersing themselves in DIY projects, I'm in nice shape and busting a move at house music clubs 3 times a week . . . and loving it.

@CMK - I am no more an authority on Western women than you are but I think the fact that so many men on TV's forums seem to bear considerable animosity toward them reveals a great deal about those men. Complaints range from "They're too fat, too masculine, too strong-willed, too independent, they emasculate me" . . . the list goes on into perpetuity and hints at an inherent weakness among those who bitch about them.

Having been with some beautiful, independent Western women when doing the rounds in London (one of them for 12 years straight), I'm not left with bitterness and enmity and I don't slag them off. Many of the girls I dated are still good friends to this day even after 20+ years.

Yes I'm in Thailand; yes, I date Thai women; So What??!! The majority of my dating experience is with Western women. Do you think that 5 years of knocking about over here is supposed to make me forget the 25 years of great times I had with Western women? Do my assertions about the kind of man a young, self-respecting woman wants to father their children really need explaining to anyone with a modicum of common sense. If these women wanted old men, why are there so many crippledicks over here looking to bag young, poor Thai women? Wouldn't they all be back home hiring bouncers to control the queues of Western nubiles clamouring for their seed?

Well worth sharing that, thankyou thumbsup.gif

You wrote, “Do my assertions about the kind of man a young, self-respecting woman wants to father their children really need explaining to anyone with a modicum of common sense.” Of course they do because you don't have a clue. If you were a psychiatrist or a person who had a lot of experience with women maybe this odd idea might merit discussion but you are a guy living in Thailand, give us a break. Rich handsome men don't flock to Thailand looking for mates. How many times have you seen Hefner or Harry in Pattaya lately?

Here is a fact you can take to the bank, “common sense even a modicum of common sense has nothing whatsoever to do with the way a woman thinks.”

Women's intuition does but common sense does not.

So in answer to your rather odd statement, “Do my assertions about the kind of man a young, self-respecting woman wants to father their children really need explaining to anyone with a modicum of common sense.” Of course it needs explaining.

A woman's brain does not work the same way yours does unless you are a girl and didn't tell us. I know. I'm an expert.

Some women like power. Age has nothing to do with it. Money may not have anything to do with it. Some women like money. Age has nothing to do with it. Some women like being in love. Age has nothing to do with it. Some females like rock stars Rod Stewart says to Ron Wood, “last time we sang this song me wife was only 1 year old.”

Does age have anything to do with it? No.

Do women like a man because he is young or old? Never.

Look, I get it. I understand you're becoming fossilised. Of course you're going to extol the virtues of elderly men and talk up the remaining vestiges of appeal you may have to young women - few that they are but you know what? If and when I get to your age, I know I won't be deluding myself that young women would rather be impregnated by me than by a younger man, regardless of my success or financial standing and if they did, I would seriously be questioning their motives.

I'm not saying it's beyond the realms of possibility for a young woman to be beguiled by or infatuated with an elderly man of modest means but she'd likely be the deviant exception rather than the rule not to mention something of a trout.

Sitting there holding up people like Rod Stewart and others as examples is idiotic. Guys like Rod get young tail becuase they're rich and famous. Strip away the fame and the dosh, toss 'em into a normal bar and see how much interest they attract. This is why there are so many elderly men of relatively modest means here, in Thailand, chasing after young women with a tankard of cider in one hand and a packet of Viagra in the other. If they had millions in the bank and could get young tail back home, that's where they'd be.

I didn't bring up common sense as being some sort of must-have to get young women. I mentioned it because anyone in the real world away from the barstool where girls aren't telling you just how good chamois leather skin looks knows without a shadow of a doubt that most - yes, most - young women who aren't mercenaries prefer to be with men who aren't on their last legs. If the money and the power ain't there, neither is the bird.

Deal with it, gramps. Your party's well and truly over.

My wife considers herself an old woman, and she is ten years younger than you, gramps!

Many of the Thai women I've met consider themselves old at 28 regardless of how they look so I really don't set any store by what your wife thinks.

She was nice. Doubt she'll look like that now though having been married to you all this time.biggrin.png

Short answer. The money is not gone. The party is not over. I have enough to last till I'm 163 years of age. How about you kid?biggrin.png Speaking of kids. I spend an hour a year at the immigration office. I spend about 10 minutes a day working. How about you kid?smile.png

I came to Thailand because a young Western woman was stalking me. I figured this was far enough away to prevent her from following. It was.biggrin.png

What I was trying to tell you is that age has nothing to do with anything. Either you got game or you don't. You have attempted to insult me a number of times in this thread. I wonder why. What is it about an old guy with a young woman that bothers you? I have been married in the West three times to women between the ages of 24 and 26. Each marriage ten years apart. I like women who are 25.

Women are smarter than most men. Men including myself are hung up on things like tight bodies and good looking shower partners. Women aren't like that. They like all sorts of other things about a man. If you get wisdom as you get older you may realize that women look for more spiritual things in a partner; morals and intelligence, kindness and a loving demeanor and someone who has achieved balance in their life.

Common sense does not help a man when it comes to understanding women; perception and humility do. I don't get the impression you are big on either of those.

this is not an attack, you married three girls between 24 and 26, and finished with them, yet you still love girls of that age.

can i ask why.

My experience is that some women are attracted to the worst young bistard in town and there's nothing can be done about it. Then there are the "normal" women who are attracted to the man close to their ages but 50% of them (a common divorce statistic) soon find failure as does the man.

Then there are women who are attracted to a man for maturity and security. There are plenty of them where I come from. There are even more in LOS if my unscientific observations hold up.

There is danger of failure with each group, and I don't think it's greater with the older man/younger woman group. I do think that in all age groups it helps if the man takes care of himself physically if he wants to keep a hottie around. I think that some women overlook that in men of all ages in favor of something else they are attracted to, but I'll feel more secure if I take care of myself.

@ the poster that said that Scots are bigots. May well be right in some cases, but you only show your bigotry by writing off an entire nation.

I missed the sectarian bigotry in the 80's for a couple of reasons, so that part of life passed me by. The first time I experienced bigotry was when I went to army training in Surrey.

I got the overnight train to London, put my bags into Left Luggage at the station and the attendants gave me some abuse when they heard my accent. I could not believe it, there was about 10 seconds of stunned disbelief by me followed by 30 seconds of disbelief by them when I dragged the biggest mouth over the counter and rag dolled him. I couldn't kick his head in as I was on an army ticket and I didn't fancy cleaning out toilets with toothbrushes.

It got worse at the training camp, I won't go into detail.....I will say though that it was a very different blether that came out of that camp. I'd had a taste of "racism" and I'm actually thankful for it as it was an education for me.

Just sayin'

I was also in the forces and I have to say in all the years,I never heard a any bigotry to any scots,plenty of banter,yes,but bigotry.NO.
