I second that although 1500 for long time , while obtainable is rather on lower side i.e. not universally accepted. as for underscored sentence, I have my doubt whether you correct. as reported in my May report, I had Bangkok guy LT and in the morning when I gave him his 3000, he gave me 1000 back saying 'that's too much " . Somehow I forced that 1000 on him and offed him 2 times more subsequently. But he is not a bar boy.

it would. My dream off , never realized so far for few reasons is just hand holding session. Even when I tried it always turned to hand holding something other than guy's hand

tell me something I don't know, LOL

Patpong Night market may be not reinstated yet but in the evening there are still some souvenir stands along Silom between hospital and former Robinson. Tourist Boat piers near Grand Palace and Khaosan are good hunting grounds as well as Grand Palace vicinity toward National Museum and KhaoSan herself Sukhumvit in the evening between sois 3 and 21 too during daytime markets at Silom soi 8 and on opposite side in soi 5 may have some I saw few souvenir stands on Convent in between all those food stands Plenty souvenirs in New Twilight, Tawan, Moonlight, FreshBoys, DreamBoys, HotMale, Banana Club and Jupiter but I'd not call them tacky and are rather on expensive side compare to tuk-tuk above

proud to admit that I took your advice on Mar 23 -1997 and ever since I made very few exceptions, Reagan and John Paul II funerals and few soccer finals

yes and I'm grateful for your recommendation, gooD guy he is and one of those who look handsome even if fully dressed

not everything , just guys

issue with bottoming may be size of client, on few occasions boys, when asked told me they would bottom but only for small size

I see, but gained some weight though

double post

I like guy holding sign STOP , one with AGAINST is not bad too

For sure they do and such unfortunate occurrences , hopefully very rare, are, so to speak , included in price. Sometimes it's other way around too, "I do everything " claimed in bar but not really so in the room or requesting high minimum tip in massage but providing strictly massage service with non-exisiting extras ( my case last trip ). But those are exceptions , not rules, the same like rain in dry season. As for requesting payment up front I'd not mind although in Thailand immediately I was suspicious as it's not how is done (yet ?)

I had that before from different boys and different bars so it may be bar policies indeed. This is the way bars are trying to take care about their employees and prevent them from undercutting each other I guess. If fee expected is too high nothing stops us from trying to bargain it down, the same way we are not stopped from tipping higher than quoted. 1500 , while sensible , in Pattaya is not competitive with what boys from apps may be happy with though but as we all know advantage of bar is that we know whom we are taking home so it warrants a bit of premium. Way boy responded to conversation ( immediate justification ) shows that he may think fee is on higher side. I like way Min conducted that interview, short, brief "yes or no" without killing fun by excessive exchange. I try to do the same way each time.

by the way, how she is doing ?

not size of regular kitchen , more of Buckingham Palace kitchen, but , yes about half size of previous location

I can't say I feel sorry for him though , on both accounts , age and fee stiffing

the do but it's between you and masseur, not between you and venue if you see they advertise something like T or B or number i.e. 54, you know you are heading to a place of your dreams

they showed now suspending PM after all. It's why I suspect he crossed spades with somebody more powerful

neither do I, some may be sniffing an opportunity and try so we need to use common sense like you said above.

I wonder what he did wrong this time ?

it may not be bad thing for a while

I don't speak Thai and like you , find Translator tiring. So only conversation possible is in English. While I can engage overnight off with guy speaking none or very little of it, for trip or longer stay with me , even day trip, I wouldn't even think about taking guy who doesn't speak at least basic English .

girls ?

I, for one, am not complaining. Not all boys I met were angels, some had problems to keep their promised side of bargain, but often improved given second chance ( I said it 127 times already my second worst off and THE BEST were with the same guy perhaps 2 trips apart ). Few enthusiastic on the first off started slacking a bit on the next one but overall picture is rosy one . It's why , like many, I keep returning and returning. Like Min , I believe money should be earned and don't send them money when they ask and needs to be said some are shockingly straightforward with their requests ( " I need 20000 baht and my account is xxxxxxx " , I'm kidding you not ) but I treat is as part of folklore. Not discounting fact they may be in genuine need, I just don't intend carry somebody else's problems on my shoulder. But at times it pays to be generous. W hen in covid time I learned guy I like is in problem on my own I sent him some money not even being sure he remembers me. Year later we met by chance in soi4 , he not only recognized me but also thanked me for the money, so obviously he valued it more than me. So at end of day guys are in it for money and we can't blame them for trying to earn it by , after all, honest means. We have our brains and from time to need to use them not to fall into entrapments skillfully set.

or even worse , KFC man as I was called on few occasions. When they call us those things they don't mean to be mean, rather thy say it matter-of-factly. That illustrates well difference - what is neutral for them , may be bit offensive for others and other way around.
