Finding Love in Thailand
‘You can live without money, but you cannot live without love’,
So what's the cost of finding love in Thailand? Plenty of people come to Thailand looking for love and end up looking in all the wrong places. If you are from US/EU well then Cinema, flowers, chocolates, and dinner are common right? Those are the symbolic images of the first date in the West. Guess what-its doesn't work here>? In Thailand if you focus on your Western views of dating, you’re going to hit problems.
Here in Thailand or even Cambodia, Vietnam,dating can be exciting, sometimes rewarding, and many occasions depressing. Especially the phone numbers you exchange inside bars or discos. You’ll date some really interesting people and have great experiences. But you’ll also be disappointed and try to finish a date early.
If you live a middle-class lifestyle in your homeland, some lower-class Thais may call you snobby if you refuse to eat street food.
Or some upper-class Thais may call you cheap if you refuse to shell out 3,000 baht on a poo phat phung curry.
Where to?
A) Dating college girls: Easier said than done unless you are in their radar-meaning shopping malls, movies, and of course events like the Black Pink show that went by.
B) Dating Office girls: easier since more mature. Coffee clubs, your business centers, and within your own company.
C) Dating sites: (Tinder/Cupid): Dangerous place sometimes and you can be blackmailed or end up dead if there is a zealous boyfriend at the end or lose money on a fake profile
D) Friends of Friends safer and easier. You are introduced to another friend.
E) Upcountry girls: They are more friendly, trusting and deal from the top of the deck however you need to be there-not long distance
Budget to spend on your 1st meeting-not over 500-700 bucks. fast food, or Coffee, window shopping or a just a trip to ICON Siam
Good luck!
