We did roll around some, but it was rushed and mechanical, and after he resisted being touched here and there, I had lost interest. The issue was that in the bar both the mamasan and he himself claimed he was versatile, but once in the room, this cannot, that cannot.... 3 hours ago, vaughn said: I was thinking it could be that the customer had already prearranged to see the smaller guy so mamasan tried to divert attention from him If so, mamasan could simply have told me that the boy had a prior booking. I have come across such clearcut responses in other bars; no need to lie. 6 hours ago, floridarob said: don't know why I don't stick to my own advice Same here!

I am also a victim with the mamasan thing. My BIGGEST failure was during my May 2024 @vinapu boot camp training on how he had just taught me on how to avoid the mamasan and not to employ their services and during our visit to Moonlight - I failed miserably when I let the lurch mamasan coordinate my off. My problem is that I don't know how to tell them to fuck off politely and the lurch mamasan is the worst. My problem is that I fear to after saying 2 or 3 times that I do not need your help and that I want to be left alone - my anger level will escalate from 0 to 100, where I might yell and tell them to fuck off in a not nice way - and I hate myselft when I become this monster. If only I could compromise at anger level 50 instead of going fully to the 100 anger level. There should be a nice and polite way to make the mamasans stay away - like a sticker that we can place on our person that says, "no assistance required", or "I will flag you over if I need your help", or some other mechanism - obviously all written Thai. vinapu and jamiebee 2 Quote
vinapu Posted March 25 Posted March 25 7 hours ago, Min said: Those mamasans with a hidden agenda say something like that all the times. I once also got this version "That boy is not going with men. He goes with ladies only" (Later, when I called the boy to sit with me, it turned out he's gay and would NEVER go with female customers). that is why I extremely rarely enlist help of mamasans, even those I'm on kind of friendly terms with. Prefer to deal with boys by myself. Similar story happened to me but it was about Long Time, mamasan said "no" , boy when seated with me whispered 'yes'. It could be that my personal charm persuaded him to change his habit so I did not blame mamasan in that case. bkkmfj2648 1 Quote

This is not just to do with Mamasans.

I noted that you also had this issue in other situations. My coping mechanism now as I get old is to try to recognise that point in myself, and, with a smile, gently say "You are really starting to piss me off" or the appropriate cultural equivalent.

In the end it is always about what you and the guy agree privately and then what you both feel comfortable with in the room, and nothing to do with mamasan's agendas. They always have an agenda but sadly it is often not about making both the guy and his customer happy. How many times do they mislead a customer about a guy and how many times do the customers go back to complain about the deception, not often, understandably,.........but by then the money is in the till or mamasans' back pocket. jamiebee, reader and vinapu 3 Quote
floridarob Posted March 25 Author Posted March 25 Back to Super A last night, had an occasional visitor guy that was available.....Thai, nice...went to Midnight bar for a couple of drinks, back to the room...he did as good if not a better massage than most of the massage shops and he said he's never worked in a massage shop.... did everything and more what I asked for him, Super A over the years has proved to be the best in BKK for me, no superstars, but they def appreciate the money and not stuck up in the least.... I think only 1 dud, and I brought him back to trade him for someone else 🥺 I tipped the bitchy mamasan tonight... she lightened up after that, for now 😝 When I asked her about the guy that had nose surgery, if he'll be ready when I come back next week.... she said, we'll have to talk about that. I asked if it's her bf, she said they're all her bf's..... I think he is, hottest one there. Btw, when leaving Midnight, walked past good boys and saw a real hottie outside with clothes on, lots of tatts.... not sure if he works inside, I might stop by tomorrow to see . vinapu and bkkmfj2648 2 Quote

I must have walked past it a few times without knowing what's inside. I reckon, from the words "Lounge and Karaoke" on its front wall, that after dinner hours, the place converts to a karaoke host bar like there used to be in the Saphan Khwai area 15 - 20 years ago (maybe they're still there, haven't been in years). Is that what happens after dinner hours? The big problem I have with karaoke bars is that they expect customers to speak Thai and be familiar with Thai songs. 18 hours ago, floridarob said: Guys and girls So... it's hosts and hostesses?

Popular Post a-447 Posted Wednesday at 02:46 AM Popular Post Posted Wednesday at 02:46 AM I still remember the first time I met O. I wandered into Nature Boy and he came over, greeted me with a huge smile and asked if he could sit down. So he pulled up a stool and sat facing me. Within seconds his hand was up my shorts and he had his equipment out on display. - So, you're from Isaan. - Yes. How do you know? I looked down at his cock and we both laughed. There's definately something in the water up there! I love a big, fat uncut cock and I was in heaven as I felt it quickly rising to the occasion. We drank, chatted and groped each other for about an hour and then headed over to the Rose. At that time I was top only, as is O, so no fuck - just suck and 'chuck'. It was a case of wash, rinse and repeat for a number of years - an hour groping in the bar, followed by a session at the Rose. Then I learnt how to bottom. We went to the hotel one night and I asked him to fuck me. He was very surprised at first but before I knew it, the condom we on and he was all lubed up. To be honest, I was terrified at what was about to happen. I had not had a lot of experience as a bottom and had only been topped a few times. The first time was in Japan and the cock was rather small. Now I was facing a monster. O could see I was worried but he assured me I could do it and that he'd take it slowly. And he did. And it was wonderful! And I was in love!!! Of all the guys I've been with in Thailand - and I've met some truly wonderful guys - O's personality has been a stand-out. He is quiet, unassuming, gentle and soft-spoken. He was far from being just a big cock on legs. But on one trip back to Bangkok, I rushed to Nature Boy, only to find that he was now the manager of the bar and could no longer go with customers. I was devastated. I noticed a car parked outside the bar. When he told me it was his, the first thing that came to mind was that he must have a sponsor or a boyfriend now - probably a farang. So now I'm guessing that this is how he has managed to open what at first was just a restaurant, but now seems to have expanded into a karaoke bar as well. I always thought a guy like him would meet someone sooner or later. If I were living in Bangkok I would have certainly asked him to be my boyfriend and would have looked forward to travelling the world together. Guys like O deserve all the good fortune that come their way and I wish him all the best. Department_Of_Agriculture, Lucky, jamiebee and 4 others 7 Quote

Those things with underperforming boys happen from time to time and I learned just to shrug it off although rather such guy will be crossed from list of future engagements. Two lessons are coming from your debacle : go with your guts and if you like guy go for him, he may disappoint in the room but at least you had whom you wanted. Second, and nothing new here is to eliminate third parties from dealings with boys in the bar. Vinapu tuck is not patented and free to use for all, you want to tip boy, make yourself him smiling , after all you distribute your own money. I agree that mother of your trouble that night was to engage mamasan too early . Looking at bright side, at end of day you say it wasn't that bad and small boy got his off too. Quite possible mamasan was well meaning for her boys - she could see that boy regular customer in audience so she knew he will get business anyways and decided to steer you toward some other buy. It's not unknown to science that if customer comes to bar with single boy in mind and he is absent or engaged already he may finish his drink and go somewhere else instead of combing through that bar selection Quote

Stick to ' I like girls " or " I already have boy for tonight " and keep it repeating until they get bored with you . When you pick up boy and they comment " you told me you like girls" tell them plainly ' I lied to you ". Works for me , will do for you as well. bkkmfj2648, jamiebee and MaxBKK 3 Quote
macaroni21 Posted Wednesday at 04:26 AM Posted Wednesday at 04:26 AM What gnaws at me still (months after that Dream Boy night) is that it was my good deed that brought on the troubles to follow. There's a recent thread somewhere in this forum that goes "in Thailand, no good deed goes unpunished". And that's what seemed to have happened. It was my tipping all ten of the coyote dancers that caught the mamasan's eye. She then decided that I was a big fish to be reeled in. She came over and parked herself beside me for the rest of the evening. Maybe the lesson should be DON'T TIP the boys. vinapu 1 Quote

You're only punishing the boys for the mamasan's annoying behaviour. I say to the mama-san that 'keun nee kon dee-ow.

The boys understandably come to expect that and I have no regrets about doing it because they deserve to be compensated for the enjoyment they bring me. But I have a budget and that limits the number of times I can visit those venues. Nevertheless, I'm comfortable with the fairness of that arrangement.
