Sex chat - surprisingly many Asian girls (and others, remember one Rusian girl....) start with wanting to talk about sex! OK, at least as many tell you how pissed off they are when guys start with talking about sex, wanting to exchange sexy pictures etc. when they are not a bit interested in that.

I've got the long way...  I'a 60, started with penpals in Bangkok Post and met on my first trip to BKK in 1975. OK, it was student girls with good English, a selected crowd. The first one I was home to in BKK when I was a young student - her father had been air attaché in the Phils.

Since then - the last ten years my walking has not been too good (after 50 years of diabetes etc.) so it has almost been a necessity to leave Sweden in winter for as long as possible as I cannot walk on slippery ground. I have always had penpals, so every winter I came down to Thailand I had a couple of interesting penpals with good English to meet. 6-7 years ago one came to Sweden on a tourist visa but her English was not good enough to be interesting and she refused to learn more so ...   We are still friends.

Then, almost 5 years ago I met my present wife in BKK after first chatting then long mails online. She was a journalist and photographer in BKK, student at the same time, we were both working with web design so it immediately worked, althou she is half my age. Now she studies Informatics in Swedish here, one of the best students in a sea of Swedish ones. She is just collecting stories from other Thais here in Sweden now on her website yuithaigirl.is-very-sweet.org/

I am still sometimes on dateinasia, I have written clearly I am married to a Thai lady and want girls who like to write interesting mails about their culture, thoughts - still I am overwhelmed by all the Filipinas around 40-50 who only see my picture and does not read what I have written.....

I always recommend that site for guys here, problem is that not all Swedes know good English of course. One friend, also retired because of bad health, I met in Thailand but he lives not far from here so we meet now and then, he spending all  the winter half of the years in Thailand which is very good for his health, but he has bad English, has not tried online dating and has never met a girl there as my wife - he meets the ladies one meets in daily life there, and he always has someone but never anyone interesting enough to bring to Sweden. He tries now again......   There is unfortunately a great overdoset of Thai girls here who cannot get any better than cleaning jobs after their 6 years in school, and their guys are those who do not encourage them to continue studies even if they are free here, thou appr 1000 come to Sweden with Swedish guys every year. Those more intellectual Thai girls here have a very intense website where they discuss everything. on the Website of my wife you can see a handful of pics from the latest party of the Thai students of this university.

I can only recommend this way of connecting people - obviously one has to be as careful as when one meets people in daily life.

OK, have a colleague here who brought home a pretty bargirl that was soon 5 years ago and it has worked fine. So everything is possible, and I do not think the lasting power of these relations is  less than with local girls. Sometimes I wonder who the Swedish gals can find with their Women's Lib, very often when I wonder about other guys I meet, I find they also have Thai girls, Polish, Russian girls......   The latest Taxi driver had one from China, Filipinas are everywhere of course.....   They are pretty with good English but too jealous - I have tried that too

I started this thread so.....     Now I have stayed a couple of winters in Lamai, with mixed problems with my rotten legs and feet, walking with a crutch. Stayed in rooms 5-8000B/m. The last one had perfect friendly service but too far from the center for comfortable walking.

I have not circulated much on the island, heard much about Fisherman's Village. Are there any nice cheap places to stay? Internet and fridge necessary, and easy access with a guy with bad balance. If feet are allright, I will come down again coming summer for a few months. I prefer winter for my feet, as I cannot walk in the Swedish winter weather, but my Thai wife can only go in summer as she studies at the uni here.
