Jim Dum Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Mr Bill thankyou for your words and the very polite way in which you make your point. It is greatly appreciated. Yes I do understand what you are telling me and I have thought about this a lot after reading posts here. our communication is much more Pigeon, than English, if you can understand what I am trying to say, so I think I have not been tricked too much. I can only hope ! I was too scared to post my story, after I read posts by a guy who,I think, his name was dragon. This guy seemed genuine but everyone just wanted to kick him in the nuts. I did not like that story at all. I think I will mainly continue to lurk because i do not want to ever be in the position of hearing someone make rude suggestions against her character. Nobody in this world is without sin, so best we not expose our souls to ridicule, because once attacked we humans tend to defend that which we see as ours. Again thank you for your words, I will go now back to my lurking position Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Jim, I do hope that you give the board a chance, one of the things that I have noticed is that most people who like to snipe or have a go at other peoples relationships especialy when it comes to Thai-Farang are the ones who have never actualy been involved but can be cynical from a distance. I make no secret of the fact that I was once involved with an ex-BG believing "She was Differant" to the point where we were married and I was a father figure to her son from her previous Thai Marriage and we were together for 8 years before the wheels came off. Was that a result of differing cultures or the fact that a high percentage of relationships overall come to an end, something I will never know. I was lucky, not only did I keep my sanity but I also managed to claim back more than 70% of the money I had invested into that relationship, which ended 9 years ago now, but also moved on into another relationship where everything seems OK, if I could define or write the rules for a successful relationship I waould patent them and be a rich man by now. At the end of the day be careful, I have always said that Thailand is a casino both for money and emotions, only bring to the table what you can afford to loose. Its your life and your decisions but at the end of the day there are some friendly experienced boardmembers in here who will offer sound advice if you ever feel the need for it. Damn most of the people I consider friends in here take the piss out of me every now and again but when shove comes to push I know I can rely on them. Best of Luck!

buffalo_bill Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Khun Jim , I support your view that even if a lady has been tattooed in 3 layers all over she might still be a basically honest character , my discreet advice would be not to give too much away financially in too early stages . As far as it concerns honorable boardmember Drogon being attacked that was what he was looking for ; if you throw a wide net of details around you should be prepared to catch all sorts of fish . The ultracynic commentators are the ones searching affection but can't find any . If your lady justifies your good feelings you should be a happy man , good luck .

Jim Dum Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Mekong, thankyou for your kind words of advice and support. believe me they are both appreciated and absorbed. i am a total sponge right now trying to absorb and retain as much advice and knowledge as is possible for a simple mind to cope with. Uver the past couple of days i'm feeling a little more adventurous, but to be sure if I'm sitting on a pocket pair of Aces, I will keep my hand close to my chest. merely for my owm protection, nothing more, nothing less. I am starting to like the banter here. i hope I can continue with healhy friendly exchanges All the best Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Dum Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Mr Bill again thank you for your kind words of support and advice. They are truelly appreciated Unfortunately your analagy could never work for me hahaha I could never maintain an errectiom with a lady covered in Ink. I know it is personal choice, but my little man made his choice a long time ago. It just would never work. HahaHa Anyway, I understand what you are telling me and I agree. I 'm just making my humble attempt at humour. Maybe I am getting the hang of this board stuff HAhaHa I also hope I have been lucky and found the Hope diamond, or whatever it's called I wil try not to lose too many houses, but at least this one will be a fucking side cheaper than the last one I lost I wou;d like to continue this discussion. i have a good feeling here noe best regards Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faustian Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Hi Jim, most folks here are nice...blunt sometimes, sure! Wrong, of course! Knowledgeable....absolutely. Don't worry about exposing yourself to others scrutiny too much, it can be a useful experience for some. Drogon is an exceptional individual and it wasn't out of scorn or to ridicule that others took such an abrasive line, it was from a feeling of care and camaraderie. None of us like to see another person suffer. There's lots of good folks here, plus the occasional not so good, but on the whole it's a nice place to be...or I for one wouldn't stay! Whether you get involved or not, it was nice to "meet" you. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matta330 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I guess I'm a semi-lurker and most of my posts are in the travel section. The good news is I get to BKK 6-8 times a year. The bad news is that is usually only for 3 days, and then I go home again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
