Yeh if women want offer food or something else at the temple they will have a cloth for you to set things on infrasonic donating. Another thing that acts as a barrier between the monk and a female.

Monks give up women and live a chaste life. That includes touching them as well.

This seems like a good time to do a lot of day game since the girls are off work all week?

Cheers!

Happy Songkran

I did it. Though, I could celebrate Song Kran just one day because I was at Kho yao yai before and there nothing was happening at all. In BKK at day time it was pretty good around Siam, many parties and bands playing on different stages. People would shoot you themselves, if you are carrying a water gun and a waterproof pouch with your phone and other stuff in, they know then that you are up for it and in evening I celebrated song kran at Khao san road, it was definitely one of the craziest and the best time I had in my life.

Any personal stories or stories from other travelers of them getting a parasite while in Thailand?

Any homemade or non antibiotic cures? I've heard of bentonite and water works for parasites

If you're sick you should go to a clinic and see a doctor. It's cheap.

What type of parasite? I get stomach bugs every time I go to Thailand for some reason. Helicobacter Pylori was the first one I caught, which still hasn't been cleared because it's a superbug and was resistant to the first line treatment of antibiotics, so now I'm waiting on a lengthy public hospital system to try second and third line treatments. The bug is common and nothing to worrying but results in bloating, naseua, and a lack of appetite and requires reflux medication to keep in check. The second time I went I caught another really bad stomach bug which had me over a toilet seat for days and the foulest looking/smelling crap I've ever witnessed. It might have been "Thai Belly" but it definitely felt like some sort of parasite eating my insides away. I needed Imodium and a couple other drugs to get through it. Wouldn't mind betting that I caught both on Phi Phi Islands- can't even seem to go there for a few days without getting sick due to the shocking hygiene and terrible food.

It's online game, so if you are better looking than all the hundreds of other guys on the site it shouldn't be an issue. Still, if I recall correctly you can only send one message every 20 minutes on the free subscription which doesn't make chatting easy at all.

Post: #1433

I think TF it is one message every 10 mins.
Make sure to filter out hard, heaps of photoshopped pics etc. Getting replies shouldn't be a big issue though.

Most often girls ask you to change to Line anyway. I usually let them offer the change to another media - and they seem to like it.

I caught H. Pylori in the Philippines.

Finished up the first round of antibiotics a couple weeks ago, and now waiting on test results to see if it worked.

Hopefully it does. Hate taking all kinds of antibiotics.

Good luck with yours man.

If you have severe shits I would recommend using pepto bismal first to see if that works if your not keen on getting raped with a medical bill for simple tests.

For std's I also recommend avoiding getting tested in hospitals as they rip you off massively. Tests cost like 20x the cost of the med's. Just get azithromycin without a prescription for like $5 assuming it's just the usual suspects you have acquired. 2 500mg pills within 1 day will do the trick.

the thing with antibiotics is, that they are not very selective. you will fuck up your stomach with it even more, try to get gut flora supplements (different strains of bacteria in pill form). you will need good bacteria after the antibiotics and they will compete with the bad stuff.

Post: #1438

I don't think girls actually use Adobe Photoshop to edit pictures. But they do like to use "filters" to change the colour of the pic making them look whiter.

This is bad advice. I don't think anyone with any sort of health care background would advice popping some OTC antibiotics before consultation. Are you positive that you can determine if you have a viral vs bacteria infection? Many symptoms are the same for different infections.

That being said, I had the shits for a week after coming back from Mexico. I drank some ACV and was back to normal after a few days.

Post: #1440

You'll be given it anyway if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea. If you've had it before and are aware of the symptoms I say why not. Save yourself $100.

If you've got cash for it and I imagine you'd likely want tested for everything then I guess go ahead. That mindset will cause you a lot of stress if your living the lifestyle in SEA I prefer a more practical and relaxed approach.

I agree that health professionals would be horrified.

Post: #1441

well, yes, technically they could be photoshopped light, gimped, pixelmated or whatever. most girls just use the face mode of their mobile with a max setting of beautify that gets rid of all acne scars and wrinkles.

so unnaturally looking, overly smooth and rosy looking faces are a good indicator.

but then it is still incredibly easy in BKG if you are into online dating. no risk no fun, it still will be a 22 year old, 46kg enjoyable girl -
otherwise better day game / night game.

IMHO Tinder is better quality, more often you see pics that give you a better impression too. The annoyance with Tinder is to filter out the attention whores who just like some nice conversation.

Also, Tinder is nice training to learn how ladyboys look like. Check pics first, then read the text. Train your biological neuronal network. Repeat :-)

Do attention whores generally want to continue the chat on the line app? Or does transferring to line weed out some attention whores?

Do "post op" ladyboys generally admit that they are in fact male?

Most ladyboys seem to wear so much make up that they are almost white as a clown. Can ladyboys still look female in the face without make up?

Yeah had a few girls who liked wasting time with daily chats and kept putting off meet ups for various excuse reasons until I just blocked them. Just immediately next the ones who are wishy washy about meet ups or talking via voice.

I've also met some girls who were only interested in communicating via facebook...ie. they were friends/orbiter collectors. Next these types too.

If you ask them outright the vast majority will admit they are men. Ladyboys also tend to not want to talk via voice call for obvious reasons. So if you're really not sure you can always call them up. Tinder is definitely a ladyboy minefield in Thailand AND the Philippines. Just have to be extra vigilant about this. It's a really high percentage on Tinder in Thailand though..at least 30-40%.

My general suspicion is that the reason why there are so many on Tinder is because a lot of guys definitely fall for it. Supply wouldn't be there without the demand so to speak.

If you're talking about food poisonings, I get it every month or so. Just going to the toilet feels like giving birth, especially if it comes from spicy food. Nevertheless, I eat anyway, and just endure it.

I often address ladyboys as "khun phuchai", which means "Mister" in Thai. This is to let them know that no matter how many surgeries you get and how many hormones you take, you are a man and will always be. Sex is binary.

Do not waste time with attention whoring. Girls who send a lot of pictures, etc. are usually just looking for validation. Just invite her out. If you get a "I'll tell you when I'm free", instantly next her.

Post: #1445

Rawmeow do you really address ladyboys as such ? Isn't that incredibly offensive to the point of creating a possible altercation? I know you don't night game much so interested in the situational context?

I would definitely not be advising first time visitors to bkk to address a drunk ladyboy in a club like this you are likely to end up in an throw down. Just ignore them.

I paid for Thaifriendly before going to Thailand. Reason being, at the time, (December 2015) your messages would go to the top of their inbox. I perceived this as an immediate advantage considering it's a free site and there are probably hordes of thirsty (but also cheap) guys

In terms of response rate, it worked: like probably 95% of girls responded. However, I am also Korean (K-pop/K-drama fever) and had a shirtless pic of me posted when I used to gym hard (like considerably more jacked than your average Asian)

I overdid the whole online pipelining bullshit though. Complete waste of time. The one girl that came to my hotel looked like a 6 online but 4 IRL. Went down, saw her in lobby, went back up. (She cursed me out on Line) Online is always not worth the ROI IMO unless you got model looks and can get the 1 or 2 9 or 10 looking girls on the site. Otherwise, it's stupid easy to go to RCA and get your dick wet provided you have some game

You can literally give yourself a facelift, remove all acne and blemishes, list goes on

Use it on yourself to see what it does (hit the selfie option and play around with it) and you will start to notice which pics are edited.

When I went Onyx was cool. Superclub experience (the actual clubbing part was more fun than at Route)

But there was an anti-foreign/unfriendly vibe for sure. I was talking to some chick and had 2 drinks thrown at me.

Apparently her boyfriend was right next to us... yet she's the one who smiled at me inviting me to approach lol

There were some Koreans roaming around. Some decent looking (like Korean 8s)

What's really annoying is that with a free subscription you can't message the most popular girls (even though they are not necessarily the hottest ones, but often those who show some skin).

These are the girls who are getting hundreds of messages, however this doesn't mean they're unobtainable if you're a decent guy, some of them messaged me first. But even when they messaged first, I couldn't reply with a free membership.
