Meeting women while living your life (in the real world) is the best way to go. Not only do you see exactly what you are getting involved with (at least physically) before you approach, but you are putting yourself in control of the interaction. The worst that can happen to any decent guy is that she appears to reject you and your ego takes a bruise but the fact is that even that is healthy and will only make you more attractive over time as long as you don't give up. You can either foster abundance in life (women, money etc) or you can settle for scarcity due to fear. Choice is clear.
Poor greeny. I went through this 25 years ago on Yahoo dating. She sent pics, and the pics were 10 years older. Met at a restaurant, and she came walking in looking like a line backer from the NY Jets. Couldn't get outta there fast enough.
Ten years older ? … or the pictures were ten years old ?,…because if she was sending pictures of herself that look like she’s ten years older wouldn’t that be defeating the purpose ?
Bud as a born in the 80s man skip the online rubbish, do what we used to do and see a nice lady and actually speak with her, online is probably 99% scammers the 1% of genuine ppl are probably someone you dont want to meet anyway Old school rules 😂😂
Yes, Thailand is easy for real dating as a farang. Just ask their Line and you know immediately if they are interested or not. Dress well and always show respect , easy game.
You are funny. Thai friendly is 80 percent freelancers. Of course they are AI. Better to date a bar girl. 15 percent are scammers wanting money from older guys in many different ways. Maybe 1 in 20 are real. Those 1 in 20 will judge you on your age and wealth. I do not take it seriously because it can be too depressing, but the real world is that way. It really depends on what you want in life. I met the most beautiful woman in a bar in Pattaya and she was friendly. Oh god, it really depends on what you are looking for. I could not find such a beauty in the states at my age ever. I only knew one French girl that beautiful when I was in my twenties. Do not give up but be realistic. Thanks for the video.
don’t be frightened, but each to their own, freelancers are fine…they are young women and men who Want to party and have sex…like we did when we were young. They’re just getting paid for it at the same time, instead of passing it around for free; like we did.
Don’t bother with online dating in Pattaya. Much better is to find yourself a filipina from Cebu or Mindanao and blow her mind, upgrade her life. Thailand girls and relationships don’t mix !
Yeah and the Filiina girls have like 4 or 5 sponsors who randomly fly in to rail her! 😂😂😂😂. I know because I have many Filipina friends who do this to stupid men.
Pattaya is one of the worst places for dating, but Bangkok is one of the best. I'd suggest going to Bangkok every now and then and just do cold approaches when you see a girl you want to get to know. Met my wife at the BTS station that way.
Yes , statistically many more women with normal jobs and lives in a big city like Bangkok. Some say Pattaya is just an open air brothel and they may be close to the truth.
Looking for Love in all the wrong places,Pattaya,My last 5 years in Thailand I just messed around and payed a few different girls up in Chiangrai an ChaingMai,found it cheaper then a regular.
You will meet someone Greeny, just don't let them move in with you if it gets serious, keep it chilled until you definitely know she is the right one, even if it takes 5 years lol, don't trust anyone, I certainly dont
Funny. I used Thai friendly and agree on the video chat piece. I called out one really pretty woman and told her that I didn’t believe it. Believe it or not she video called me and true to her picture! I lucked out. After getting to know her for some time I was able to get out she wasn’t a bar girl or anything in that business. Well 3 years now and I have her on a k-1 visa to The US! So yes it’s a bit hard to find in the app but they are there! I got lucky
Thai Friendly is full of freelancers. Tinder is not bad but always ask for video call before meeting. Pattaya might be worst place ....everything is for sale there. Honestly not sure why expats move there who really want true love. Good luck...patience..
I’m embarrassed to admit but I’m 59 and I haven’t dated in over 25 years , last girl I was dating I was only with for about 6 months and one day she told me “ I let you do what ever you want, I let you go golfing with your friends…..” I cut her off right there and showed her the door and I’ve rented woman ever since. Granted, she was a white American woman which kinda explains it all, but after sitting around the fire station for years on end hearing never ending relationship horror stories and to then find someone who I thought might potentially be the one, only to have her drop that garbage on me ,…I’m all set !
@johnmellyn2700 I met my now husband through online dating 13 years ago. He was also a golfer and I wasn't. I quickly realised that his golfing might be a potential problem as he was out and about a lot. So I started playing golf. Best thing I ever did as we have a hobby in common, social circle in common etc. And we also take our golf clubs when we travel (which we do a lot). There are dating sites for golfers if you are looking to find someone and maybe this is a way forward for you. Greetings from the UK.
All true my friend. Even taking a picture on the spot and send it right away could put you in danger. Your actual exact location is embedded in the meta data. Happy travels and stay safe. God bless you 👍🏿.
Come on Greeny. Just get on with stuff that you like to do. Hobbies, travelling around, going out and you'll meet nice Women. As you experienced recently in Europe, it's a thousand times easier to engage in that Country. You don't need anything online there.
Greeny, I know how you feel because I've visited there many times. Its very rare to find anyone decent online. I think approaching women in places you go in everyday life may be the best way to go. Shopping mall, cafes, restaurants, supermarket, etc.
Greeny like your video's I live in N.Z. Married now 14 years with my Thai wife. Met 2004 on dating site. Have a house in Thailand as well. Works pretty well like any relationship we have our ups and downs...we are good mates though. My advice to anyone would be to have very specific criteria when using dating sites. I had 5 hard criteria with girls I was involved with and would not communicate with anyone that did not fit that criteria. I know it it sounds tough and I would urge anyone to vigourisly test their assumptions with the girls you choose to communicate with. You can spot the scammers after a while. Cheers Dean
Thanks for the heads-up on the dating apps. i agree that they might be good to find a quickie but not to meet real people. also do you want to recommend any condos between Jomtien & Rayong? thanx!
Hey Greeny thanks for sharing this video. For this reason I have decided to move to Hua Hin figuring I've a better chance of meeting a normal girl there than in Pattaya. I know Hua Hin has bar districts but as you know the total of bars they have is probably only about 1% of what Pattaya has, I don't doubt there'll probably still be some freelancers contacting me. Don't get me wrong I really like the vibe and atmosphere of Pattaya but maybe time for a change for me, plus it's also going to get crazy busy with high season this year I think. I don't know maybe someone can let me know if that's a bad idea or not?
If they ask for whatsapp or line, it means they’re a freelancer, it’s for discussing how much they charge. I know this from experience. I’ve met a couple “regular “ girls on Tinder in Thailand but the majority are freelancers.
@@GreenyTravelsusually they are a bit more plain looking compared to the freelancers, but I like a “plain” girl as long as she’s cute and has a nice body. I’m not into fake tits and lips, and too much make up. Good luck buddy.
Online dating sucks and is pretty much the name everywhere. TF has always enjoyed a questionable reputation, but it has devolved into online brothel and scammer hub now. Roll the dice, you never know what you're going to get. Thai women who actually date foreigners are very transactional. You pay one-way or another. There isn’t a week that goes by without reading about another foreigner getting scammed in Thailand. It’s a needle in a haystack to find a good one here... just like everywhere else. That's reality.
Just be yourself and and don't settle..... Only date someone that will video chat. If you only get 5% return, it's better than the fakes. I met my wife with Thai Friendly from Phuket. Best lady ever. Married over 5 years living in California now but looking to retire in Thailand.
@@GreenyTravelsLol He is banned from coaching the remainder of the season. Don't get too excited because Michigan most likely will have to forfeit all their games for cheating and no Playoffs for them. Last year Michigan could not illegally film Texas AM and went on to get crushed by them in the Playoffs.
Never meet a woman in a restaurant or anywhere where you are locked in for hours. Meet for one drink, if there is anything you dont like about them or they catfished you, pay your bill and be on your way. Simple. 1 hour wasted max. If you met early enough you can easily go meet another one later.
I have been to malls away from the tourist areas ... people are so nice and normal. Bkk Nana... cowboy....and few other areas.. pattya ... soi 6 ... walking street.... If you stay away from these area.. There are really good Thai people n ..real Thai women..... Forget all the online thing..i would just go out from all those area n try to meet in real places...
Love your volgs Greeny. I'll be in Nice France for thanksgiving. Loving life on the Italian Riviera. Good bicycling. Great food. keep up the good vlogs..
Must - Must - Must - always do a video chat before meeting - preferably as soon as you are interested in a lady. If she refuses then move on. Secondly, never attempt to meet a women from Pattaya - it's a 99% waste of time. You have to be open to travel to more remote locations if you want to meet a sincere lady. I always tried to meet a lady who had a decent job (nurse, lawyer, secretary) as opposed to a restaurant worker, shop girl, or street vendor and had much better luck that way since you know that the lady is a normal hardworking and sincere person.
Did the internet dating 10 years ago met a great girl in Pattaya who was a Teacher she was a nice girl lasted a year but had many of the same thing you said freelance etc etc looking for a sugar daddy. Any way at that time she was getting up to 150 emails every week but now they have thousands of messages. I tell guys who ask me now ask your friends who have good relationships do their partners know nice girls your more likely to get a nice girl that way. Good luck with your quest but you have been round the block so good luck.
Dating culture is forever screwed in pretty much everywhere. Try to meet nurses, pharmacists, bank tellers in your area. Or take up some cooking or yoga classes. Keep your spirit high and expectations low. 🍻
Hey Greeny, Stay off dating sites. Meet girls in person since you're already in Thailand. Worry about your health habits, hobbies and activities. Keep yourself busy being productive and she'll show up.
I lived in Bangkok 15 years and Tinder and Thai Friendly worked a treat. Still had a pocket of prostitutes which I just report straight out. But moving to Pattaya at the start of Covid, you have to work a lot to find the normal women in normal jobs. In bkk it was so easy to find office staff or sales staff. Don't give up on it, just know in bkk there are about 20% hookers versus 95% hookers in Pattaya on the Apps. Of the 5%, half you would see a second time and maybe half that are cool women you want to keep seeing.
HAHA, almost spot on, there aren't just hookers in either spot. there are different levels, and just like in the usa, there are non-hookers that might as well be a hooker. I find that on thai friendly no matter what city you are looking the flat out hookers are easy to spot. My wife absolutely hates Pattaya and most thai people outside of there look down on that city. My wife would take the bus to her aunts house in Rayong where she was a school teacher in an international school and when hear Pattaya, other thai bus riders would think she was on her way to Pattaya and she did not study her whole life to be classified as a hooker...haha She gets all worked up. She's never treated anyone bad or looked down on the girls who are in the bars we have been at, she's just not one...lol Met my wife on thai friendly in Chiangmai. best search ever! :)
I found my wife on a dating site but I'm much,much older than you and my age requirement was 50 to 60. Not problems of decent women then . But Pattaya isn't the right hunting ground for just dates without a P4P. I think you're quite happy as is,single .
haha .. thats Pattaya!. Try going a week to Chiang Mai, or BKK, they are most of the times genuine girls. It worth to have small condo in BKK near sky train available for your dates. And try to keep the three days rule, if not want to get hurt.
I am not sure I feel sorry for you. I lost my wife 25 years ago. Got married to a Latina, had a child who is now 23 years old and is the joy of my life. Unfortunately Latinas are too hot tempered. Have now been 13 years happily married to a Ukrainian woman, she is gorgeous, hard working , great fun to be with and really looks after me. I can’t imagine my life without her. ❤
Why not date a white American, East European, Arab/Middle eastern, Latina, East Indian or black women who live in Thailand? Does it have to be a local Thai woman only?
That’s mostly what is here. I am open to meeting anyone. I have dated a Russian lady here before. I’m not discriminatory on who I date. Ya never know who you may have a connection with
Pattaya could very possibly be the sex tourism capital of the world. Dating a normal women will be virtually impossible if you're a foreigner. Move to any smaller Thai city and you'll easily be able to find a normal Thai women.
@@GreenyTravels now I know your lying 🤥 😂 with this comment, chocolate man in Thailand 🇹🇭 gf is looking for a new meal ticket 🎟️ you should hook up with her she only charges 25k baht a month 😂
Searching in all the wrong places? I’m sure their is a country song that explains it. Changing your location is key but not nearly enough. A gem is likely not on an app but in some mid size town, educated business girl, doesn't know how pretty she really is, sincere, funny when trying to look cute, shy, worships her temple and keeps to herself. If you meet her on the street you must be able to carry a small Thai conversation to win her attention.
@@GreenyTravels Just pay for the service, but forget about female sentimental involvement in a relationship. And I know what I'm talking about. Lived in South East Asia from 1994 to 2007, had the best time of my life then between Manila and Jakarta where I lived and fantastic trips and party time on holidays. Was among the first tourists to set foot in Laos, incredible trip. Now I live in Brazil and would be absolutely unable to live again in SEA. Things changed too fast and really for the worse there! Also got lucky in my marriage. My wife is Brazilian but of Chinese descent, so I benefit from a great Asian personality in South America, and since I met her 10 years ago she also became one of the best economists in Brazil with all financial benefits coming with it. Could have been way unluckier in my marriage! 😎
I'm very lucky to have met my wife, it was hard at first as she didn't speak English, now 5 years married, we're both living in Australia, her English has improved, my Thai still sux's though 🤣 and we will be moving to Thailand permanently in about 3 to 4 years. There are good Thai women out there you just have to be patient.
@@andreim5973 thanks for the advice mate, but we are fine, if I was oing to go to that much trouble I'd never got married in the first place, and I trust my wife.
I admire you for speaking up about this Greeny,be prudent there are opportunists out there ready to get their hooks into retirees. Personally, I feel you should not initiate things online particularly in Pattaya but what do I know, be safe and have fun señor, you’ll meet a good woman🤞🏾🥰
Thanks. I’ve met some good ladies on the dates. Just not a good connection. I think Tinder better for this area. Thai friendly seems to be about one thing in Pattaya
You can bring her over, there are some bloggers in Pattaya who have done that, you can live in Thailand, drive a German car, buy furniture from Sweden (ikea), eat Mexican/Italian , etc
a little off your subject but is there any chance of doing a video on Storage for scooters in Pattaya , Jontiem , Bang Saray in the future ..... just trying to keep you occupied and out of harms way 5555
You're trying to date in Pattaya. What did you think it was going to be? If you don't want to be a customer, that probably isn't the place for you. Go to Chiang Mai or something.
Ahhhh Greeny ,.. the old “ not spicy “ scam eliminator trick …. I love it !…. Seriously tho , you should take up golfing and hit on some of the female caddies , they seam pretty normal , and they get plenty of exercise , plus if you ask them nicely they’ll wash your balls for ya
Wisconsin, Bucky Badger, that's my alma mater. Just do a video call. Anyway, why get a "girlfriend". Most do not speak English and unless you speak fluent Thai, you are gonna get bored after a while. If you need to lube your tubes, just pay. If you need companionship, get a pet.
Greeny you got spoilt by Fai. If you’re going to hook up with another lady in Fai’s league then money will most certainly be in the equation. Even for guys who have above average charisma and charm money is still the decisive factor
If you want a woman for married as in the old times, I will recommend Philipines or South American woman's, that are Christians and looking for husband to give you many babies. I still remember when fist time I went to Dominican Republic, most of the woman's want married and have babies with you, is the tradition . Thanks god I didn't come back there anymore. But Thailand , I think you had choice the wrong country to live., if you gold is to married a woman.
Stay away from online dating,,, its full of liars... Women and Men...Just do the old style .. it's easy in Thailand. Just start a conversation with a lady who works in the market or in a shop in the shopping mall or in the Pharmacy...if u like her after a while by saying "Sawat dii kap" and "Wan nii khun mee sanuk mai kap" and " sabai dii mai kap" and Ben yang rai baang kap". Just simple thai. Hello. Are u having fun today. How are you. How's it going today. And then eventually ask if she is single and if she is ,ask her out for some food, thais love to eat and do pay the bill, not a fancy restaurant its cheap and if she is not single she won't be offended and she won't make it embarrassing for u..Stick to a plan u know they have a job coz u see them working but be realistic , if u are in your fifties don't be asking a girl in her 20s or younger out coz u will deserve what u get. 😮
@GreenyTravels Yep, I know u would not date someone in their 20s but there are guys who come to Thailand and do as u know and then shout from the rooftops when its ended that they were used ,,, no shit sherlock .
