The Trump train has left the tracks. In the last six weeks his behavior has been erratic , bizarre, delusional, and downright mean. Then there’s the whole thing about wanting to run away from a war he started that destabilized the entire middle east. Trump is carrying on the tradition of starting wars we won’t finish. ALL Americans should be concerned with the Presidents very troubling remarks & posts in recent weeks. He has compared himself to Jesus, threatened the Pope, vowed to destroy Iranian civilization, claimed he will take over Cuba, and then there’s walking away from NATO. That’s just the last two weeks.

I weirdly got lucky at Arena. One of the guys is a Thai Boxer. I asked him if he gets into rough roleplay and he said yes, so i gave him my Line. I’ll see how it works out

Of course they do.

Fake profile pictures is a huge problem in Myanmar as well. We had a similar situation in another thread. You (mauRICE) cast some general aspersions on me based on what people you know, who have seen me, told you about me. When I ask for details, you remain silent. That says more about your character than about mine. Forum members who have met have only good things to say about me.

I feel you, i am basically in the same boat like you in your first sentence. I don't think they are faithful, but in my mind he does not have to be. Just try to enjoy what you have with him and what the future brings is always an open question. Don't move there just because of him. If it's for thailand in general, ok; but if it ist because of him then you are in dangerous territory. And speak to him openly about what you want from him and the reason for you to move there. Mine gave honest answers, and this gives me more clarity if and how to move forward. For honesty of thai men in general you may like to google "thai gik culture". Considering gay thai men this is multiplied by 100. They like to hook up often and happily. You have to decide for yourself if you can live with that.

Americas Tax Dollars "at work for You"........

Darling sis, If Trump hasn't realized THAT at this point, he is just INCAPABLE of that Realization.... Haven't WE all suffered enough? Do we deserve to endure another 3 yrs of this "UNreality" show ? Let Iran get their Justice with HIM.....PLEASE ! 🙏

Perhaps that wheelchair may move to Thailand

I think the communication barriers by language tend to be a lot larger than we think, I was hooking up with this guy and his English was nearly perfect; he actually has an advanced degree in the English language, but still there were communication issues. For example, when we were trying to make plans and he asked what I wanted to do I said I'm down for anything and he interpreted that as me saying I don't feel well enough to do anything (as in I'm feeling down) Hell, on Grindr I can't count how many times someone says something to me and I have no clue what the fuck they're trying to say

Did anyone ever experienced being asked for money by staff at immigration or departure? I saw news online about someone having their boarding pass torn up for refusing the demand.

My experience, as a holiday visitor for the last twenty years, is that yes they can be faithful; the older they are, the more likely that they can be, but let me immediately qualify that, by asking 'who are we expecting him to be faithful to?' Most young Thai boys shag like rabbits with other young Thai boys on a daily basis; they can have current Thai boyfriends but they rarely seem particularly enduring relationships. But as for us older farang boyfriends living abroad?, well that's a whole different matter. I currently have two 'boyfriends', one Laos, one Thai (who each know about the other). My Laos boyfriend I have known for about ten years now, we video-call every day, and we meet-up whenever I return to Pattaya, but we haven't had sex together for several years; he is much more of a companion now. He now talks quite candidly to me about his other three farang boyfriends; and I am aware that each of us supports him a little bit. He has just about abandoned his bar-boy job in boyztown now, and focusses instead on keeping all four of us happy by daily contact. He is over 30 now and his own sex-drive has dwindled; when he does feel horny he finds another Thai boy who will come and suck his cock, or occasionally fuck him - and he pays them to do so (500 baht manybe). But his English is just about conversational now and he is my daily contact with Pattaya, and when I am in town he is my friend and companion. My Thai boyfriend is the 'boom boom' boyfriend that I have known about six years now. In his late 20s, he is still a horny little bugger and constantly shagging other Thai boys (top or bottom) on an almost daily basis, either individually or at small alcohol fuelled 'parties'. He likes me and happily stays with me on holiday, but I know he drools over other Thai boys (not me! haha) as we are forever chatting about who he has seen that he likes. He is into threesomes with me, and effectively he uses me as an excuse to have sex with the other boys we meet in the bars that we both choose as our third (or occasionally fourth 🤣). I also use him for threesomes in that there are bar boys who will come to my room because they know that they will be having sex with him (as well as me). I fully accept that neither boy will end up pushing my wheelchair here in England in years to come; neither wants to come and live with me in England; they are both entirely happy living where they are, and why not? In Thailand they have their families, their friends, their culture, language and foods. So neither are really my boyfriends in the sense that we might traditionally understand; I am essentially a favoured customer, a status I pay for in one way or another. Of course, if I was an exPat living in Pattaya, available to see them 24/7, then my 'relationship' with either might be entirely different.

Is your upcoming trip your first time travelling together? In that case, I would say you are still in the -getting to know each other- phase of exploring a relationship. Spend some of the time travelling together by talking over your mutual expectations for a relationship. I would not expect a long distance relationship to be monogamous, but I know others may have other expectations or assumptions, so it's important to be open about how you look at these things. Enjoy your trip and hopefully your relationship will develop in the direction you hope it to go.

"The land of smiles". I'd advise any newbie that if he wants a successful meeting, he should start with a smile. And then he will likely end with one.

I think everyone has opinions AND lived experience on this.... men can't be faithful, perhaps for a short time or if you've already had your share of fucking around in your younger years and want to settle down and companionship is more important than wild sex.... but expecting someone much younger than you to be at that stage with you and not fucking around is a pipe dream. Long distance relationships are not viable....better to be reliable fuck buddies/friends. Now can Thai men be faithful, specifically.... like @jimmie50 said, too much missing information in this case, but bet it falls into the above explanation regardless 😉

Yawn.

Spoiler alert: rant incoming. I don't disagree that Trump botched COVID. There were many nails in his coffin in 2020. And that was for sure one of them. But one of the reasons he won again in 2024 is people remember that "the Trump economy" from 2017 to 2020, pre-COVID, seemed to be pretty good. I'm not making a statement about whether that is objectively true. I am making a statement that polling showed that is how people remembered it. I'm pretty sure a lot of that feeling was that the inflation that happened under Biden - and to the whole world thanks to COVID - just was not a reality during Trump 1.0. Susie Wiles was sure able to help capitalize on that in campaign messaging, when Trump listened to her. I've had a nice but weird series of discussions with one of my brothers about this, who I refer to as a McCain Republican. He's really mostly apolitical. But he loved John McCain as a fellow Navy guy. So this brother voted for Trump in 2016. When I asked him why, he said, "Whatever he does, it's going to be interesting." I said, "Yes. Nuclear war is interesting. It doesn't mean it's good." That zinger of mine still might prove prescient. I think being an infrequent voter who like most people isn't a fan of government my brother just liked the "break the glass" quality about Trump. That changed bigly by 2020. By then this brother was raging way more than me, the real lefty in the family, about how Trump was a "megalomaniac." He now despises Trump. He of course voted for Biden in 2020, and Harris in 2024. But when I asked him who he would have voted for in 2020 if he had only voted on the economy, he immediately said, "Trump." When I asked him why, he said, "my retirement account was worth a lot more." Stock market did pretty well under Trump. And Biden, too, of course. I'm sure this was a huge part of why young Zoomers who had no real recollections of Trump 1.0 when they were in high school were willing to give him a chance. The economy, stupid. They for sure didn't like high rent and mortgage rates under Biden. Even my left-of-center nieces and nephews who were paying high rent or high mortgage rates were not happy with Biden at all. Final point, which was an interesting poll outlier. In every election since 2004 CNN asks if you are better or worse off than four years ago. No surprise, people who say they are better off vote overwhelmingly like 2 to 1 or more for the incumbent party. People who say they are worse off vote overwhelmingly against the incumbent party, also 2 to 1 or more. People who say they are the same as four years ago usually split their vote 50/50 or so But 2020 was different. So this is the third question down in that exit poll. No surprise, people who felt better off financially under Trump 1.0 voted like 3 to 1 for Trump. And people who felt worse off voted 3 to 1 for Biden. Note that even in Nov. 2020 after months of COVID 40 % said they felt better off and only 20 % said they felt worse off financially after four years of Trump. Had this been like 2004, 2008, 2012, or 2016, Trump would have won. In all those other years the people who said they were about the same financially split their votes 50/50. But for some reason in 2020 people who said "about the same" voted overwhelmingly for Biden, 65 to 34. I think it was Trump's craziness that nailed his coffin shut in 2020. That was for sure true in the family example I gave above. Another indicator of it in this same 2020 survey is that 49 % of voters said only Biden had the right temperament to be POTUS, and they all voted for Biden. 39 % of voters said only Trump had the temperament to be POTUS, and they all voted for Trump. People who said either "both" or "neither" had the right temperament still voted heavily for Trump. But the math problem both in 2020 and 2024 is about half of America is deeply convinced Trump is a lying dangerous asshole not fit to lead. He is an idiot who bombs innocent girls and lies about it. Why would any sane country want this piece of shit as their leader? Other than America, of course! 🤔 So sorry for rambling. But I hope Iran does not return the favor and assassinate this piece of shit. I want to see him bleed out like the worthless piece of shit he is. In 2020 I think the economy mostly did work in Trump's favor. Even if it was just his good luck to inherit an economy that Team Obama, and/or time, healed. But now the piece of shit has both a shitty economy in the eyes of a majority, and his own evil temperament. So he is headed to a worse fate than 2020, I think. Please Iran, do not assassinate Trump the worthless piece of shit. Yes, he is warmonger who kills Iranian leaders and Iranian girls. He is a weak pathological liar who can not even admit he kills children and lies about it. But don't you think he deserves to suffer the one thing he can't stand? That the whole world increasingly views him as a failed worthless piece of shit?

I've been watching a lot of African porn, mostly Nigerian, gay and straight. It's all local people in the porn, no foreigners. I notice in some of the two men/one woman combos the straight men touch each other a lot, no sex, but stroking the other guys butt cheeks,etc, But I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the straight men fuck bottoms when they're available. A bi male escort told me there's no difference between anal with a girl and anal with a guy.

Don't be dissuaded by a negative or seemingly negative reaction to what you post; it happens from time to time to many of us who participate regularly. The forums attract all sorts of individuals, most of whom never post a thing but gain important knowledge from persons such as you who share your experiences. Keep up the good works!

I don't think , or I hope, no-one can disagree with that. Some members here seem to think that sex is a purely mechanical affair, which to my mind is alien.

It is especially prevalent in Cambodia as you say. I notice that on Grindr, boys have lifted the pics of Myanmar MBs presumably because fewer would know them and report them as a fake profile. This is a greater problem, I believe, on Hornet because it is easier to register again once banned.

100% but so many shades of grey to this topic and a mutually beneficial relationship isn’t always an insincere one
