Olddaddy

In my "normal" life I'm more introvert,I'm not one of those Daddies I see at the gym chatting up younger guys etc ,but when I travel I try to be more extroverted and go out of my way &  chat to people particularly handsome young men I meet on my travels .
They can range from hotel staff to motorbike taxi drivers , to even guys I meet in cafes such as  waiters etc.
I usually carry a local mobile phone and give out my number on a card  and they can call me later if they want to meet up , eg for a drink or bite to eat .
Not all have any expectation of financial reward , some just want a older guy but they are mostly bottom and want a "Top daddy", but if your a bottom like myself it's a bit more difficult in meeting guys not expecting any financial reward as my fetish is straight acting guys , who are tops particularly straight/busexual guys .
If I was a "Top " Daddy I could get many on the apps looking for free sex with an older guy, sure they aren't stunners but they are looking for free sex and to be banged by a older masculine daddy type.
It takes a bit of work though in chatting to them usually letting them know your gay and moving on from that, I let them know that, and they take the next step in calling me if they wish .

Well in 2 weeks I'm heading off to Thailand, Phillipines & maybe Jakarta , I'm so excited, it's been 2 nearly 3 years of non travel for me.
At 59yo I try to keep myself fit by lifting weights most days of the week and this has benefits in meeting younger  guys on apps (for free) in my own city here in Australia who are looking for older mature guys although 99% are bottom looking for Top Daddy types in which I'm not , Unfortunately I'm a bottom 🍑and my fetish is straight acting top Asian guys .
This trip my bucket list plan is 
1. Meeting moneyboy guys in bars, apps etc , and paying for their services 
2. Trying to meet non money boy (straight)  guys , waiters, bellboys, guys in gym etc , and willing to pay them, I guess you call it gayy4pay , they must be straight acting tops or not usually gay or never had gay sex 
3. Hooking up with Bisexual / gay guys for free eg at  Saunas ,or the apps   who are non moneyboys  and looking for free action. Eg Saunas, apps ,cruising areas,  I'm willing to make some exceptions and try out  more mature aged guys  in this category if they are tops 
My questions are particularly in Bangkok , where are the " cruising" areas particularly to meet guys in category 3 who are bisexual looking for no money fun .
Any "cruising" areas in Pattaya ?
I will see how I go in terms of my bucket list categories .
Of course it's a lot easier ( and has benefits)  just to pay for a service and see a moneyboy than go on the hunt for guys looking for sex for no money involved but this trip I want to try all angles ( in more ways than one)
Last trip to Bangkok which seems many moons ago now , I met several free guys , one middle-aged middle Eastern guy from  Dubai  (Grindr) who was staying in Bangkok with his wife in a nearby upmarket hotel.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Hilarious situation! I feel happy for English bf and Taiwan FWB. But i do hope Feng found someone else.

How did you guess? LOL
Seriously, though, I don't think the young guys I have been lucky enough to meet up with have been attracted only by photos - although if I had photos which made me look like the face of a camel I might have had a problem. There just seem to be some guys in some of the cities I listed whose only interest is in hooking up with older farang. For them this is certainly not so easy when living in Tokyo, Taipei and Danang, and no doubt quite a few other places.
A former bf of 5 years who lives in Taipei and with whom I get together for brunch whenever I visit is always complaining that he is unable to find a suitable older westerner. He's now in his early 40s, is still good looking, very fit and in a good job - plus he has another asset I need not describe here! 
Just as an aside, he (I'll call him Feng) told me a funny but true story. He thought he had found Mr. Right, an Englishman in his late 50s who worked in Taipei. Unfortunately Feng loved life and really enjoyed going out to concerts, movies, museums, occasionally a disco etc. but his English bf only wanted to crash when he returned from work and watch television or videos. Even so, Feng enjoyed being with him. After about 18 months together, though, Feng decided he should liven up his sex life by finding a friend with benefits. Quite unusually for him as he had only ever been with westerners, he found a slightly younger Taiwanese guy whom he'd meet roughly once a week. 
This continued for about a year after which Feng decided to break it off. Some weeks later, cuddling at home with the English guy, they heard the doorbell. The English guy answered the door. It turned out to be the Chinese guy who'd come looking for Feng. Very stupidly Feng had at one time given him his address but not told him he already had a bf. All this came out as the three of them were having drinks. Learning of the reality of the situation, the Chinese boy left. The English guy seemed to take it all in his stride and did not make any fuss.
A few weeks later Feng returned from work. He went straight to the bedroom to get out of his clothes and take a shower. As he opened the door, there in bed together were the English bf and his Taiwan FWB! He gave up his bf days later.

Reminds me of a massage boy I fell for online. He was adorable on the site and I booked him. I had grab take me a LONG way to get to him. I got to the massage house and was taken to the room by an old mamasan and then she started to massage. I asked what the fuck was going on. She said "massage."  I pulled out my phone and tried to ask the boy. Finally, I got it was him but MANY years ago. I could  not go through with it. Perhaps, if I had met him on my first trip to Thailand over 20 years back I would have had fun but even then a bit old for me.

Answering Min's question, the MB's request for more than a photo of your face was inappropriate. And I wouldn't have responded on the basis of there being other, less demanding fish in the sea. A face picture should be enough; you were, after all  the paying customer.
I joined Romeo long ago, in its early days, and was too shy to post my photo. Too many guys told me that they didn't respond to who they termed "ghosts" and so I plucked-up courage and posted my photos. The more the better, by the way, and that went for the guys as well.  I did a lot better.  I was never asked for more than that, nor would I have provided more.
