But that option , while cheaper,   misses whole entertainment part, show , interaction with boys and mamasans in the bar so I personally don't subscribe to it too often. 

True, but after seeing the same show several times, I would much rather meet Cam outside of Hotmale instead of going inside, not only paying the off fee but for two drinks (his and mine) when we don't even plan to hang around.  Perhaps if there was more variety in the shows I would think otherwise, but I get bored with them after seeing the same thing five or six times.  lol.

I think you said something about taking it easy since you have seven weeks. Going by your accounts, you seem to have thrown aside all thoughts of a leisurely holiday

My initial intent was to be very laid back and casual. lol.  My downfall has been collecting way too many regulars...all of which are very demanding for my time and attention (as well as my money).  LOL.  Already the middle of March, so this will all be coming to a screeching halt come April 2.  However, I have already started checking airfares for August, September, October...   🤣

wholly agree, my comment was of more general nature. Most of us on shorter , 2-3 weeks vacation, if that much  don't even have a chance to get bored with the shows as by time we visit every bar once  it's already half trip if not more

It took me a few trips to appreciate that these guys are in business and generally speaking, will tell us what we want to hear.

I just go with the flow and enjoy the boyfriend experience without thinking about things too much.

You definitely need to keep this in the back of your mind.  While the boyfriend experience is nice, they probably have several they are saying exactly the same thing to at the same time.  

Recently had dinner with several forum members and was sharing photos of some of the guys I mention.  Turns out a couple of them have also seen and know 'my guy' from Hotmale.  Small world.  lol.  That brings a dose of reality very fast when you find someone else who has been with the same guy who has been told exactly the same things as you.  Boyfriend fantasy bubble gets popped quickly.  🤪

 Among all of the guys there seemed to be one reoccurring theme…business is slow and no customers.  He said there might be one or two days during the week where it would get busy, but in general he felt it was very slow in the clubs.  

you are right it's recurring theme and it was always as long as I remember. Once I saw one of my Tawan boys parking new shiny motorcycle on the street.  Hour or two later , in the bar , he said the same so I asked him " is that new motorcycle fruit of that slow season ? " and he did not have good answer for that

and this would be clashing with all those ' no business ' claims

A lot of guys know each other because they all come from the same village.

Even though they work in different bars, they tend to rent rooms together and hang out with each other in their free time.

I am more focused on having fun with guys I find attractive, but not trying to create some sort of relationship.  Sure, I am happy to see them more than once, but the ongoing boyfriend treatment just does not appeal to me.  I think that many of them pick up on that and tailor their interactions accordingly.

continued…Installment 14: Woke up to the sound of rain on the windows and thunder in the distance.  Was a bit surprised by this.  I haven’t followed the weather forecast since I have been in Bangkok, so I wasn’t expecting thunderstorms this time of year.  I did come prepared, though, with umbrella and raincoat just in case.  Today was all Paradise guy.  He informed me yesterday afternoon that he was taking the day off and coming to spend it with me.  That pretty much put the kibosh on anything else that I had in the back of my mind for the day.  He slept late since he was off and headed my way around noon.  Got here just before the rains started again.  Turned out to be the perfect day to just stay inside, avoid the nasty weather, and have some fun at the same time.  He arrived with a surprise for me.  I have been looking for those small, round, white coconut pancakes.  On previous trips they were easy to find, but for some reason in October and again now I have yet to see them.  I had asked him once before where I might find them.  He knew exactly what I was talking about when I described them, but didn’t know of any place near me that I might be able to get them.  He did know of a place near his apartment, so he stopped there before coming to me and brought two containers, each containing 8 of the small pancakes.  I thought that was so sweet that he remembered and got them for me.  We watched a little television (YouTube mostly), played some game on his phone, and had plenty of play time in the afternoon.  After doing the wild thing, it was nice to just fall asleep with his arms wrapped tightly around me and to feel his naked body against mine.  We dozed off for awhile before deciding it was time to grab a bite to eat.  Went to a local shop that advertises Khao Soi.  I think it is a traditional Northern Thailand dish.  I had it this past October when visiting Chiang Mai on the bus tour.  He had never had it before, and really likes noodles a lot, so thought this would be a good dinner option.  I asked him what was a traditional or regional dish from his area of Thailand, and he said Larb Nua Dib.  Translation is basically raw beef larb.  He pulled up a video on TikTok showing me how to make it.  Walked around a small night market before heading back to the condo.  Basically a repeat of the afternoon…watched a little television, more game time, sex and then sleep.  He spent the night, but informed me during dinner he would need to get up early as it was his turn to go to work early and get everything set up for opening.  He does that once a week and had traded with his friend.  Thursday is his usual early shift, and his friend is on Friday.  They swapped days so he could spend the time with me.

continued…Installment 15: Got up somewhat early so we could grab some breakfast before Paradise guy headed to work.  To be honest, after he left I crawled back into bed and slept another hour or two.  Today was a calm and rather tame day, with not much to report.  My straight friends picked me up around noon and I was with them for the remainder of the day.  Didn’t do that much other than hung out with the family, did a little shopping, had a couple of meals together, and basically just chilled out.  The daughter will finish high school in May.  She has applied to a few schools in the U.S., and wanted some help with the college applications, as well as a general idea what to expect about the process.  Spent some time with her going over the specifics and provided some tips I learned from the guidance counselors at the school where I worked.  She will have an advantage over other foreign applicants as she has attended a private international school where everything was taught in English.  Her English language skills are very advanced allowing her to skip the required ESL stuff. Went to some strange combination Thai-Italian cuisine for dinner.  Friends had per-ordered beef steak with mushroom gravy, veggie pizza, lasagna, build-your-own Vietnamese wraps, and cashew chicken with rice.  I can honestly say the cashew chicken was one of the worst I have ever eaten here.  I would never be able to find the place again, but certainly not a restaurant I would ever want to go back to, either.  The best thing of the entire meal was the mushroom gravy and the mango sticky rice for dessert.  Very disappointing.  Happy that tomorrow will be going back to G’s along with other forum members.  Will definitely be a better meal!
