rene123 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I think the bigger question is, why do people assume that others are jealous. I believe those are the truly insecure. No need to assume anything. Just let people stew in their own juices. If they are jealous then that is their problem. If not then who cares. Just pay attention to your own actions and leave the rest to others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRealDeal Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I think the bigger question is, why do people assume that others are jealous? I believe those are the truly insecure. Because their Ego is so big they think it must be true ..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooked Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Not many actual case histories here... we tried for a year or so to find a Farang for agirl we know, teaching her English amongst other things.We were happy to hear that she had found one. After a few weeks the guy takws her shopping and made the mistake of blowing a kiss at the sales lady on leaving. He got thrown out for that.

How about people assume that others are not jealous then get a shock when they find out they are? Observe the replies about relationships being ruined by jealousy.

NanLaew Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Farangs in Thailand seem to be disproportionately jealous (compared with farangs back home).Incorrect. Farangs on TV seem to be disproportionately jealous (compared with farangs that actually have a life). A remarkable admission after 6900 posts Ahhhh... the quaint jealousy of the sub-five hundred 'Senior' member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchybum Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I'm jealous of Andy's self control. I wish I had the mental strength he has. And my big dog is jealous of my little dog. You're being silly. You're upset because I've told everyone that you were banned previously as DIDDUMS and HUMBUGGED. You'll get over it. Be strong. You seem fixated with your fantasies. Are you jealous ?

There is a café I go to where I get extra service and the odd extra treat. The owners daughter will bring me a piece of fruit or a pastry no charge.

Old Croc Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) There's a gory picture story in Phuketwan today that's all about jealousy. A Belgium man didn't like the way his bargirl GF was flirting with a younger, better looking farang, so gave her a belting when back home. She responded by stabbing him repeatedly with an iron spike, She then took him to hospital with both covered in blood. He's in a serious condition.

theblether Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 That's the truly dangerous end of jealousy Old Croc. One that I think a fair few guys here have seen....... On a related note, Thai men can react wildly at the slightest provocation, real or imagined, in regards to their women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heng Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Occasionally working construction (not on our condo or home developments... but on things like putting up fences, building walls around property, tiling, etc.) with my 300 Baht a day workers, which I try to do several times a year.... those periodic 'keeping up with the Lamsams' type feelings disappear pretty quickly with the dirt and sweat.
