Why so many unhappy farang in Bangkok / Pattaya bars?

Title sums it up.

So many nightclubs and entertainment venues I enjoy visiting, partying and dancing at yet I see dozens of unsmiling, frowning, morose looking older farang. Why leave your house to go out and sit alone looking like you're at a funeral? I would like to try and just ignore them but there so many of them and they just look so depressed. Sitting alone, milking a beer with a blank stare on their faces.

Just this past weekend at Insomnia nightclub. I see countless guys who try to pick up Thai girls by walking over to them and staring. No smile, no "hi, how are you…", no offer to buy them a drink. Almost like their mere presence and them being a young farang is enough to attract a beautiful girl. Not too mention the girls are all made up and look great while the farangs wear a tshirt and jeans.

Am I missing something here? You go out in western countries to have fun and party and hopefully meet some hot girl (but usually not:) Why are these guys even going out in Thailand? I don't get it.

Usually, when you see me like that, I'm pondering in my mind whether I have time to close the deal before I need to pee. Again.



But then, I'm not young.

Hunting isn't as good as it used to be for the older guys and they are getting sadder and sadder about it. In the 4 years I was there I noticed a slow but steady increase in younger westerners. The Thai women are holding out for younger men more and more. Good for them.

The old geezers can go for the older women now or stick to their porn and I can stop throwing up.

Of course there is only one little problem with that scenario, the older gals are often far more prudish. Ya just can't teach an old dog new tricks, it seems male or female. That's a big reason why we are such youth oriented cultures.

Much better than being sad and lonely in an empty pub nursing 1/2 a bitter or in a library just trying to keep warm cos they can't afford heating back in Blighty. Anyway, if they can't get it up anymore that's a good enough reason to be miserable.

I imagine those guys would have that same blank stare wherever they were--perhaps they are trying for that mind-control thing. I've been both young and old in Thailand and it's good either way--but then I've had a good time wherever I was. Perhaps its a personal problem.

Most of the older guys in their 70s have been hanging about in bars possibly for the last 50 years seen it done it got the T shirt and now it’s all just starting to get a bit boring

Possibly need a few more comedy club bars in Thailand and a few good comedians doing the circuits to cheer everyone up instead of fighting of the bar ladies who only want to scrounge a drink from you, plenty comedians on TVF surely some could go professional and cheer up some miserable depressed unhappy old people and bring a smile into their sad lives.
