Why do farangs leave their brains at the airport

[ballpoint]

From what I've seen, I doubt if many of them had any brains to begin with, or certainly not enough to make up the minimum deposit.

[dontoearth]

     The major problem with all of this is that MOST of these men are not rich.  The money they are spending on their thai sweetie is their entire lifetime earnings and savings and investments.  They need to repeat after me,"When the wallet is flat you will be tossed aside and lonely just as you were before and broke."   Is a year of good times worth the whole life time effort you worked to build a comfortable nest egg?  Next question,"What happens when this inevitably doesn't work out?"   Will you have enough to still be comfortable in your golden years?

      Just my two cents.  And yeah, I am hanging on to my wallet!  All potential sweeties are told that I am a poor monthly pensioner!  Just can barely scrap and get bye, not more than that,  hope prices don't go up much at tops and the landlord don't raise the room rent!  ????????????  Amazing how many potential 'true loves' move right on.  If it is near the end of the month bitch a lot about how little money you have left before you have to wait for more.

Its simple.  Where else is a fat and aging guy going to be able to sleep with a 20 year old. Take sex and cheap cost of living out of the equation, and there would be hardly anyone going to Thailand.

Philippines, Laos, Cambodia, Burma, Vietnam, Columbia, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Mexico, Brazil.  You want more?

Yes, but lets not pretend that the fat, white, ageing, blokes in those countries aren't losing their shirts either.

I feel deeply sorry for the old chap and really hope that one day soon he will wake up and smell the crap around him.

[meand]

and when he is on his death bed his last words may very well be "that snatch was worth it".

Why do some people not just ...Mind their own business?

So you know how to get rid of the birds. Did you also see anybody who said: You are such an honest guy, I love you just for that and I will help you pay the bill?

I hope he dies with his darling in his arm telling him she loves him and will never forget him.

Interesting story but the TITLE of your topic assumes all of us leave our brains at the airport.   ????

[BTB1958]

Your girlfriend us just telling  bullsh$t stories to get more money out of you.  My wife tried telling me stories of farang that bought this and that for friends.  I said great,  I want to meet these lucky couples. After 3 years together still waiting to meet just one.  The stories have stopped

Good luck to him. 

Doesn’t sound like he is leaving himself penniless.

My experiences in Vietnam have been good regarding ' night time company ' although it is not top of my agenda. However, many here seem to fall at the first hurdle when there isn't a go go bar as such!

 

Cambodia not as much, they are cheaper but I find them grubbier and my god they can spin a yarn. A lot of them and their parents don't even remember the Khmer Rouge! yet they like to trot this one out at every opportunity. Some of them are a lot friendlier, but you still get the ' Mama, Papa, brothers and sisters money for school routines ' all the time. Burma, never bothered. Philippines, their ' twang ' when they speak gets on my nerves and grinds me. I don't think I could tolerate them for long. I have heard from others that they can be far worse than Thais when it comes to protecting their ' nest egg ' and of course there is the added pain in the arse of extended family and the ' God squad, Jesus loves you ' Not for me I'm afraid!

 

South America I intend to head there and do quite a big tour of the countries in that region.

 

What a lot of newbies on TV and greenhorns don't seem to get and the Asians do, is mostly it isn't love but a business transaction and a convenience. They are trading their youth for your cash! It's not rocket science.

Not long ago there was the story about a wealthy American, married to a Thai pornstar.

SHe wanted a baby, she got one, NOT from him in physical way, as the were married 5 years with no sex at all.

IV? story didnt tell. ITs a choice you make as wealthy (or any man) man. IF he is happy, ok so be it.

Has nothing to do with leaving brains, it is a choice you make and works for you. 

CAn work against you in time, but only time can tell then.

There are countries  where divorce rate is about 50%. Looks common today.

Love , mariage, relations it lasts indefinitely time, can change in a jiffy.

Absolute, utter desperation and the total confidence that she is with him

only because of his striking resemblance to Brad Pitt. 

 

Some numskulls here arrive so emotionally vulnerable, so desperate for a little TLC, that they immediately forget the basic rules of self preservation. 

 

1. Take your time getting to know her. At least two years before you start spending anything more than a modest monthly allowance on her. 

 

2. If she is an “industry” gal, never take her word for anything. If she says she has been doing it for two weeks, assume that mean 5 years. 

 

3. If you must get involved with a hooker, than at least hire a private detective to do a background check. It is not expensive. If he comes back and says she has been with about 4400 guys, how would you then feel about her? Any chance she would be capable of a healthy relationship, at that stage? Around the world baby. 

 

4. Remember one thing. If it is good it is only going to get better over time. If there are issues, they will reveal themselves over time. So take your time. Pay tribute to your gender. Man up. 

 

5. By defiling all the rules, you are contorting society, twisting women’s minds and raising expectations. Word gets around. You are then personally responsible for corrupting the expectations of tens of thousands of very average women. That is not right. Only a fool and his money engages in this sort of behavior. 

 

Convince your GF’s sister to close the deal as soon as possible. 200k per rai for rural property is quite a sum for her!

I think even a 8yr old will know that a hooker is more likely to be with 4000 men than 4, if you cant see that, then you deserve t obe taken for the biggest ride of your life

Every hooker in Pattaya at some point in time arrived in town and started a new job.  So every hooker in Pattaya was working her first night, week, month and so on.  Are those 20,000 or so women all the same?

Every day another guy for more than 10 years? I am sure it's possible but I am also pretty sure that is not the typical average from Thai bar girls - especially if they are considered young and pretty.

[DILLIGAD]

How often did you try to tell a guy that his beloved gf is not as much in love with him like she pretends?
I think I tried it maybe three times when I started to live in Thailand. All three guys didn't want to hear it. All three guys accused me of wanting to destroy their wonderful relationship, etc.
After that I never said anything again and I don't plan to get involved in any of this.
If a guy would ask me specifically if I know if his gf does this and that I would tell him the truth. But only if he asks and if he gives me the impression he wants to know the truth.

Agree. Been there, done that. As the saying goes ‘Not my Circus, not my Monkeys!’

funny how every bar girl under the age of 30 is in her first week on the job , or she is just the secretary and you are her first customer

I hope he dies with his darling in his arm telling him she loves him and will never forget him.

Whilst she is writing down all the ATM pin-numbers?

Actually I was talking about a member of the family and a few of my students from 15 years ago so I do know their history.  It is rather funny to walk down Soi Six hear your name called out as kru xxxxxx by a half a dozen young women.

Yet, I am astonished at the number of otherwise smart and rational men telling me (and themselves!) that they met a woman at a bar, who just started working last week, has a university degree, and has only been with two other foreigners. 

 

There seems to be some sort of desire to believe their stories. When they are rarely ever true. Most are coached. To tell us what we want to hear. So, buy into the narrative at your own peril. 

 

I really think a private detective is a great idea, for a serious man, who wants to know the truth. Can’t be hard to dig up some “background” on these gals.

 

The real question is, are you man enough to handle the truth?

I wonder how many guys would be comfortable if a detective would look into their past. It seems many of us have a couple of secrets which we want to keep for ourselves. And why not? People make mistakes and people change. Is a girl who was a prostitute and had hundreds of customers a bad and unreliable person just because of that? And are all the guys who left "home" in a hurry and never return bad for the rest of their lives?

Personally I don't think we should judge people by the worst things they did sometime in their past.

I honestly cant think the point of hiring a detective, if she is a prositutte, she will be with every guy that walks past, and offering the right price,

and she will be accepting money from anyone who is willing to pay and that she can handle

 

why would you need confirmation of the bleating obvious
