I never let the members of TVF affect me. I've accepted that there are haters and people who are going to potshot at others (I do it too, sadly). I've met one global moderator in person and he's a real gem. I try to use TFV mostly for news and the 'real' intent of a forum, i.e. helping other foreigners with their questions and experiences. Unfortunately, I read too many posters vile (many times untruthful) comments about people or events. Normally, I move on. (Truth or the whole story is lacking here). You cannot open the eyes of your friend or help him become happy. Happiness and satisfaction are something that each person must come to terms with on their own. My wife once told me, "I'm not happy". I told what my Mother use to say, "you can get happy in the same pants that you got unhappy in". I have unhappy times even today, but I then count my blessings. I accept others are blessed more, others are blessed less. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The help subforums are good for helping ie visas DIY travel etc. Unfortunately, I read too many posters vile (many times untruthful) comments about people or events. The other subforums have, IMO, too many bored unhappy old men looking to snipe. Such is retirement without hobbies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has nothing to do with the past family life or our parents as both myself and older sister are both very happy people. I suspect that part of the problem is that the two miseries don’t drink alcohol !! Alcohol is a suppressant, not an anti depressent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't beat queuing up at a 20 lane till service with only 4 actually open while most of the staff are hiding playing on the phone. In front of you will be people with cart loads full of cooking oil as it's 2 baht off with kids dressed in frozen dresses and spider man outfits. Tills maned by schoolgirls and students who are paid a pittance, but are actually better than the full time employees. Every other customer presents a problem and the red light has to be activated for the supervisor to eventually show up. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geriatrickid Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Money. Those who are most unhappy do not have money. Money makes life in Thailand so much easier. Yes, one can be happy without it, but almost always, the people who are unhappy or who are in rough shape are poor. It makes a big difference in one's quality of life if one need not worry about income or how bills are to be paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moe666 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I have been here in Chiang Mai 10 years, yes I have complaints but most are very minor and I do not dewell on them. If I was back in the states I would have compaints as well. When I decided to live here I knew the rules I could not buy and own land, Immigration rules and a few others I cannot think of now. Me and the wife how ups and downs but not anywere neer the ups and downs I had with my 1rst and 2nd exwifes back in the states. Life is what you make of it, if you bring your troubles to Thailand they will eventually show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianf Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I'm one of those unhappy here. I feel trapped because I have an expensive house that I cannot sell. That leaves me depressed because I am ready to move on, and in my case that means back to the UK. Why? Well as I get older here I have more health needs. Although I am quite fit and healthy, I cannot get health insurance at a price that I can afford. Secondly after a couple of false starts I met my wife 9 years ago. As time moves on it turns out that she lies and scams but presents herself as a little miss wonderful who never does anything wrong. She's currently travelling again - Covid doesn't stop anything for her - and she is in Germany staying with her friend (female) whom I know is a sexual partner though she denies it. At the same time she scams money from men - particularly one in Alesund Norway and he pays for her flights and other support. But off course I have loved her very much and at one time we had a great time together. So I'm stuck in a beautiful large house that I can't sell, in a country where I have friends but no family and unable to visit my kids and grandkids in UK because of lockdown. I have hobbies - centred around cycling - which uses my energy and half my day. I don't do bars or suchlike so that leaves me wondering and wandering for the rest of the day. Yes. Unhappy here but at least in the UK its familiar and I can get more involved in things which I can't here. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone has posted for years, don't buy what you can't afford to walk away from. But you knew better! Again, we told you many times, Thai women love to have sex with many different partners, you can't stop 'em, so you might as well join 'em. Hardly any of them are different.

Man go find a Thai farm girl get away from the bars and go find a genuine lady contrary to what many post on here ,they are out there looking for a better life.And most are appreciative of a chance to improve their lot.Bar girls are there to take your money,simple as that and most times that’s just what transpires money gone, lady gone . You are left disillusioned and bitter for the experience check under the hood kick the tyres before you make the down payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
