Number 6 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Having... a good partner decent health ability to suffer hot weather so you are at least not house bound. living within ones means and being ok with it something of quality to fill ones time, hobby, work. interest in travel, holiday in Thailand and a break from it outside. enjoyment of Thai food, more enjoyment, more happy ability to function in the world in Thai, not at any level of fluency but able to conduct daily business, take trips, order food, etc have lost the desire to run back home because it's just no longer home. have lesser or no need for fancy standard of living, complicated foods, fancy sunday brunches. did not arrive with pussy fever and never caught it, well socialised with females, you're not creeping them out on approach. have young people in their lives non smokers, moderate drinkers. (not) a need to go out every night, weekend like some 20 something reasonable weight for health and aesthetic reasons been here 10+ years, really understanding the country beyond superficial levels. a certain street smarts to smell a scam and get well away from it a temperament that does not display anger openly an ability to be one's own best company because farang can be so maladjusted, sociopathic and self centered Money, enough money to meet ones needs.

richard_smith237 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Personally I suspect open mindedness and an ability to evaluate the issues and other things which surround us with a healthy balance - its ok to feel critical of somethings and speak up about them without getting upset, we should also recognize the good things and speak out about those too. The negative issues with living in Thailand are out balanced by the positives. Another thing which allows me to thrive and enjoy life here its to comfortably feel a level of respect for those around me, not the tools who act poorly, but the every day people who get on with their life quite normally... it generally lends to a level of mutual respect and makes life somewhat easier and more relaxing. Also, by letting the issues I have no control over slide life is simpler, but handling those issues I do have control over in a mature manner, not losing my cool, being patient but being firm.

marcusarelus Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Open minded people who don't judge things by their own culture. If you can relate to the statement, "Thailand does not have a proper "_________" then you will not do well in Thailand. I moved to South East Asia in 1968 and saw most countries at their worst in the midst of war, violence and real poverty. Now it is much better.

Inn Between Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Ones who are flexible (not physically, although.... ????) adventurous, not desperate, and not gullible. It's often a matter of expectations and goals. It seems some people who set out to live in Thailand or similar places are trying to escape from themselves, convinced that such a vast change in their environment will bring about the changes they want in themselves or their lives. I think in some cases this actually happens but not often, and for the majority who don't find the expected improvement in their lives, deep depression can set in, especially if they've committed their emotions and finances into a false or failed relationship. We've seen and known of many a Western man who has been emotionally and financially bankrupted by a calculating lover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubascuba3 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Having different interests, being disciplined with money, not having a drink problem, regular exercise. The longer i stay here i realise its better to not have a girlfriend or wife, you just don't need to. You could make a good case for having a dog instead. Not buying a condo/house also good, you have freedom to move in case of bad neighbours or law changes. Flexibility feels good. Ah and the big one, don't spend too much time on here, the negativity isn't good for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god it's far enough past breakfast and long enough until lunch where I am that I didn't have to toss my cookies and will likely forget this enough to have an appetite by early afternoon. That's a bit too vivid, but I should have known better than to keep reading after the first two adjectives used to describe the zit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
