all three I guess
wailing over past will not do you any good unless you like bitter taste. However fabulous, past is gone. Better focus on anticipation of new trip. And if you like change , do something different like start your trip in Bangkok.
Every trip to add some spice I try to do some small things bit differently , one trip it will be changing hotel every day, another staying in the same whole trip ( which I don't like), off all boys from the same bar - I call it monodiet trip or have my first offed boys being twink, itself horror of horrors. Then you will wait with anticipation how it will work for you   

Dear Old, It's called hormones my dear. They tone down after a while and sex no longer becomes the biggest driving force in one's life. When that happens you can see the world a little bit more clearly, not being clouded by continual lust and not being driven to take amazing risks which we should have avoided in the first place. Travel becomes even more sweet -- you can enjoy a flash of a smile, a sweet embrace, seeing an old friend and catching up, ... well enjoying life as a more multidimensional experience. For me Pattaya is just as exciting as it was 20+ years ago because, besides sex, I enjoy so many other things -- a 30B mango shake from the night market, a walk to the "end of the earth" (Pratumnak), the cooling off after a tropical rainstorm, ... well just so many things which I would have ignored in the past. Luckily we were young enough to enjoy the hedonistic ways of Pattaya's past. I think if I were young now I would feel cheated out of not having been able to experience Pattaya of the past (Adam and Eve bar, Memory bar, old Twilight, ...) so many things that just don't exist any more. SO I don't know if it is because _I_ changed, or because _Pattaya_ has changed, perhaps both?

In a few weeks I'm off to Pattaya on my yearly 2 month trip 
I sat in my apartment here in farangland listening to a song I first heard in Pattaya 20 years ago called "Take me to the clouds above "
I first heard it in those Go Go bars in PattayaLand Soi 3 was it where wild west boys is .
Forget the names of the go go bars then , 
I just listened to that song   tonight and it brought back memories of Pattaya back in 2004
Times have changed and i looked over my old diaries to see I was going to Pattaya back then every 3 months for week long trips,  and according to my diary I was very excited weeks before 
Even taking sick leave from my work to go
Fast forward 20 years and I'm not that overly excited,
I could even put it off until later in the year if I wanted ,not that fussed actually 
I don't know if it's me changing ,maybe I'm getting old , or if it's Pattaya .
I do plan to retire there within the next 10 years 
The shine is still there but I miss a lot of the past ,and that's not a good thing because I like change 
In a way it's great not to be overly excited as I was 20 years ago , those days I was counting down , and it was antsy pants until departure day ,antsy antsy pants !
Now I don't care as much

True to a point
But if I was the owner I would use commonsense
If I saw a customer tipping the contractors then I know they are earning money , Beer or whatever the owners name is HAD the opportunity as them , approach me , Pants down , but he didn't 

I guess you have to do it slowly .
No use retiring from your job in UK Australia or USA after 30 years service and immediately moving to a condo in Jomtien forever 
The first few weeks would be ok then the same ol thing everyday without a purpose 
Then you slowly go mad 

Fuck, this sounds so hot!  I'm waiting for the day or night when I'll receive one hell of a "train" or gang bang from 4 or 5 guys who've been lined up: engine to caboose to engage in that one hot trip for me.

I just logged into Grindr Pattaya for my upcoming trip to see a few African familiar faces 
One notable was a guy JORDAN who think told me he was from Madagascar
Excellent service from this young African guy ,I'm surprised he doesn't work the bars but may make more working as a freelancer.

that early and already second go ? wow !!!

Had one living with me for one year during Covid. Loved fucking and getting fucked and threeways and fourways and would wake up in the middle of the night with his dick inside me for a second go for the day.

This Thai movie, Doiboy, which is on Netflix is worth a look for anyone interested in the subject matter, although it has it's flaws it seems a step up from most Thai movies.
A refugee builds a new identity as a sex worker in Thailand and gets caught up in a client's risky scheme that might lead to a better life.

when minimum tip is listed , unless boy himself raised issue by asking for more for doing this or that, that minimum is what is expected , even in higher rend places like Jey Spa. Not that they throw back bahts  at you if you tip them more. 
If you are happy, specially if you think you will see boy again feel free to tip more to show he did good job. Not that is expected but you may buy better goodwill. Often 2nd encounters are more dynamic than first ones  as both parties are more familiar with each other.  But be warned , if you tip more ,  next time you will be expected to tip the same , improved formula amount. Boys have surprisingly good memory, even 1 year later they may quote you what you gave them last time, happened to me in January and I resorted to excuse ' last time I was rich, now I'm poor".
I simplified my life and use VST (Vinapu Standard Tip ) in massages : for 1 hr session 1000 or minimum tip, whatever is higher, for 1.5 hr session 1500 or minimum , again whatever is higher. I'm inclined to throw money around , if only to soothe boys stress after encountering stingy farangs but very rarely on 1st session.

I blocked him ages ago .
I have no interest in American politics 

Glad I've blocked/ignored marc in calif, he's the king of the downvote on good replies.....I suggest doing the same to block a shithead like him out of your life 😉

Pattaya far better than Bangkok for a first timer.
