Faustian Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Faustian I give you an A+ in Stating the Fucking Obvious. Since you are such a good shrink (in your own mind) why don't you get yourself a decent well paid career over here in Thailand rather than bitch every time someone' date=' in your myopic opinion, happens to mention that they are doing better than you and having the us and them philosophy. As Freud would have summed it up, you suffer from Penis Envy.[/quote'] Yes it is obvious, to me and seemingly to you and i avoided anything too technical and complicated or heaven forbid 'deep', plus i generalised on a range of matters and implied and inferred throughout. You are lucky that you are so well informed Mekong. Most people don't know a lot of what i wrote about. Some know bits, but by its very nature the unconscious is not something you can be aware of, unless you are lucky enough to have people around you who give a shit, or you are gifted with insight into your own condition. I'm unsurprised you reacted in such a hostile manner and of course wingman number 2 was right there, all fully paid up members of the old boys club. I'm happy you are so rich and successful, but why do you feel the need to mention it constantly? I hope others, who maybe don't possess the same level of genius as your good self, might find something useful in what I've written. Faustian, You may have misinterpretted what I meant by my posting, if so I am just as guilty of not making myself clear to you in what I posted. This Thread is about "Relationships With Bargirls", and if you wish to read the whole thread you will see that I have made a couple of postings in it which have been commented upon / appreciated by other board members. I do not post here for a slap on the back or try to garnish praise by what I say, but I do appreciate threads like this where I can sit at a computer and type out my thoughts and realise how fortunate I am nowadays to have overcome a situation / relationship which may have affected others in a differant way and to have what some would call happiness nowadays. I don't know what one would call it but to me it is "Cyber-Theraphy". If I can share my experiences with a fellow poster and he realises he is not the first and neither the last to be in kimbo making a life altering decision, or maybe just taking an alternative route to happiness and my experiences help him in his decision process then this thread has helped two people. Meanwhile, all you seem to do is to Pshyco analyise a situation and chip in from the peripheral without actualy having any experience of such a situation. IMHO you have two modes of posting, mode one is playing the Shrink, and mode two is accussing anyone who happens to have a career in Thailand as Snobish and Elitist, hence the "Penis Envy" referance, if you were such a good shrink why are you a Pratanum Tie wearing 55 Baht Beer drinking expat in Thailand now. If you have a problem with me and my comments it is no skin off my nose, maybe you should be asking yourself why do I and other successful expats make you jealous? You are obviously not stupid, I recognise that from what you have posted in the past, in fact I quite enjoy our cerebal exchanges and banter. It appears to me that you have spent a lot of time observing life, situations, relationships etc from the outside and have tried to analise them yet you are not prepered to jump in the pool of life and experience things for yourself, only my personal opinion who the hell am I to analise you. At the end of the day it is an internet forum and we are all free to our own opinions, you disagree with some of mine and I disagree with some of yours, that does not make us bad people it is what makes us characters. Differance of opinion opens up debate which leads on to people recognising / seeing things from another persons perspective, you have your opinion about me and visa versa, we can debate without making personel threats, something we are both wise enough to ever get involved in that. I hold nothing against you personaly, how could I? I have never met you, but we live differant lifestyles. I respect your opinion, please respect my non-personal retorts. Very Big and Kamui This has been simmering under the surface for over a year now, Faustian and I have had a few disagreements on many Topics in the past and since I opened up previously on this thread, Faustian posted (non direct to me) I spat the dummy. No offence meant to you guys or any other board members, if you could downgrade me from Total Asshole to Asshole I can live with that. Mekong, I think you have misunderstood my intentions, i actually quite like you. You're a Man U supporter, always a good thing and the personal insights have impressed me. You seem like a self-made man, always something I respect. You can be disarmingly honest at times, but at others perplexingly hostile. As regards my experiences, again you misunderstand. I don't post personal information for a reason, but trust me, I've been around the block a few times. I've been to many of the places you've been to emotionally and intellectually. I've related heavily to a couple of your musings. Am I jealous of those with better careers in Thailand? Sure, I'd like more money and a better lifestyle, but know this, I'm happy at the moment. I'm not even sure how I'd go about getting a better career here. I've not looked into it and no one seems to be forthcoming with solutions. Many seem to closely guard there knowledge and contacts. If I stay here long term then I expect I will take the personal business route. It seems nigh on impossible to find a job with an international company. Maybe I just don't know where to look? DS, if i want to go to the State tower for dining, then I can. I don't want to waste money on mediocre food. You don't know my background, if you did I would imagine you'd be rather surprised. I don't reveal much of myself for reasons...none of which I'm prepared to discuss on a public forum, but money isn't the reason....maybe we (meaning Mekong, you and I) should meet up sometime.

Dumsoda Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 DS....maybe we (meaning Mekong, you and I) should meet up sometime. Faustian, Can only speak for myself...but count me in...more than happy to meet up...and anywhere...those that know me know that my "regular" hangouts in Bkk are far from HiSo....lol My job allows me to travel and enjoy a good lifestyle, but I am not well off...by any stretch of the imagination...in fact my LOS "addiction" has seen me on the bones of my arse....many times... I guess I'm at the other end of the scale to you. I've posted way too many personal experiences / situations on the Board....and have at times been almost "stalked" because of it.....maybe I should learn to keep my big trap shut!!!! TC is correct, I often react (over react??) to posts that trigger my defense mechanisms.... I will make an effort to curb this trait. This board has helped me cope with a difficult personal situation over the past couple of years and I have made quite a few good (and genuine) friends through it. I think I would have gone "over the edge" had it not been for the support of a few of the guys here...they know who they are...not an Old Boys Club...just good guys who know the ropes and are prepared to help a "mate"...(and OFTEN telling him things he does NOT want to hear....lol..) Not sure when I'll be in LOS next, but I'll PT you when I know I'm coming and we can hopefully meet Cheers DS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Mekong, why do u take Faustians sayings personal? TC Read my Previous reply to Fostie and his following retort, we do sometimes agree to disagree yet we do both hold mutual respect for each other, its the way we are from Northern England, attack each other first and then build up a friendship. Fostie Thanks for the reply on this thread, I think I understand where you are coming from a little bit better now. As I said, and DS also concurs, some threads on this board are a place to sound off and take a deep look at oneself, some sort of releif mechanism to keep oneself sane. When I get back to BKK from Seoul (see working for a MNC is not all glamour) I would be more than happy to share a beer or ten with you, it would be good fun to meet the persons behind the board personna.
