I would be all for enforced premarital sex!

Given you always get fucked by the masseurs, I don't think that you can now play innocent, "I didn't ask for it" and claim you therefore don't need to pay the tip for full sex.

There is nothing like leading from the front on this!

Apologies but not sure which is the right forum for this. A "new" member with this name has sent me, and I'm sure others, a private message with a request to contact him, via email provided(he has disabled his messages), to discuss a business proposition. As he joined only 7 hours ago, and posted 6 hours ago, I would say that the probability that it's dodgy is high and posters should be cautious in responding, if at all.

Dominic stated in his Rose Garden that his telephonic records demonstrated that the second accusation was untrue. However he has asked many times to share those records, so that he could demonstrate that the accusation was untrue. Unfortunately he has not been willing to do that! Funny that, you claim that you have evidence, and everyone is just supposed to believe your statement without actually supplying it.

Thanks for that suggestion. It was an interesting article. For anyone wanting to read it you don't need to be a subscriber to access occasional articles in The Economist, you just need to register.

There may have been "clarifications" or "interventions" but for those with less knowledge of the thai language all the comments and variations in interpretation and usage are interesting to us. So please continue to post and discuss! For me I shall continue to enjoy the fact that I can say to a thai guy "Phom Lhap Daay", I can receive you, which sounds so mush more gracious than "I want you to fuck me"! Sure that someone will correct my phonetics, or my spelling of same, but the guys get the message, and that's surely the most important thing!

Very different experience from that of GWMinus. Wonder what the cause of the difference might be. Did your guy pay for the ticket directly himself? Either with his own funds or funds previously provided to him?

This is so not my experience. I know at least twenty UK/Thai gay couples whose relationships are enduring and happy. I don't know one "bad experience with goldigger", but undoubtedly it happens, and perhaps it is more prevalent among those whose relationships never moved outside the Thai borders. That is, where genuine commitments were not made, and where there was a desperation and/or naivety on the part of the farang, who thought that they could buy a husband. I say forget the pre-nups. Don't you love him so much that you would share your wealth with him anyway?

Hi Schuft, Congratulations and good luck. If you didn't try to achieve this you would always wonder. I went into a similar situation after a long distance relationship. Like you I was aware that he might not adapt to local conditions(which in my case were unfortunately without any thai infrastructure), I was at work every day for long hours etc. But it was fine and we are still together twenty years later, and the large age gap remains a large age gap! So happy I took that risk, and what a fight we had for the early visas. All worth it a hundredfold.

I love guys who are glued to their foreskins.

Great report, very useful, thanks

Apologies for the post above! I seemed to have temporarily lost my ability to quote and comment in the same post, mea culpa! Feel free to delete. I think that sums it all up very well. It is sometimes surprising how efficiently a less accomplished linguist can use language. Anyway I loved it as a summary!

Most enjoyable reports. I was happy not to know about where you/we actually were, as it allowed all the focus to be on the relationship, on which you write entertainingly, and leaves the posts not cluttered up with the travel details. Perhaps a little travel detail summary only at the end of the journey, which i am looking forward to continue.

And purely for the purpose of advising others of the veracity or otherwise.

I'm not convinced! I think we need another photograph to prove it!

Thanks for the feedback. When I go into a new area(relatively) I like to look like I know where I am going ! And when I read recommendations for venues I like to be able to work out exactly where they are, rather than wandering through an area looking for the promised land! Somebody recently did a great job of updating the new locations of the Patong area bars on a map, so I was hoping for the same for Pattaya, as new bars open and old ones close. The online Thai Puan map is a good starting point.

Can anyone recommend some Gay Pattaya maps that cover the area of Boyztown, Sunee and Jomtien. Been so long since I went there that it's all a little unclear to me, and there have been so many changes in the venues. Many thanks

Great and fun reports thanks! A minor point on the Patong Map. I think Patong Soi One and Two are the wrong way round. That is the Soi on the right hand side with Foodland is marked as Soi One, but should actually be Soi Two. The original Patong is Soi One.

When in Thailand I remember in the Bangkok Post Travel supplements often seeing special discounted local hotel rates that are only available to local residents, which would be Thai and Farang I assumed.

Very dry and entertaining report, thanks!

Where better to celebrate the year of the pig than in Pattaya. So much moo daeng on display.

Therefore the story is second hand, not first hand as you originally stated.

I was having drinks with a thai friend at a beer bar in Patong. The truck driver, who was an acquaintance of his, was passing by, and we invited him to join us for drinks. After several more drinks and some sweet talk, the three of us ended up back in my room!
