Generalisations because India is a different world.

Being Indian (38 years, physically quite fit), seems I will have to work hard to get great ladies. (good clothing, cologne, treating working women as humans, good budget-ticked) Hope you guys don't have preconceived notions me being an Indian.
Will be in Pattaya in first week of May. Staying at Siam. Me plus one friend. Do we need to split or 2 is OK?
[/QUOTE]Ha ha. There is a preconceived notion that Indian guys like to share a room instead of having one for themselves, which means they can't bring a girl home for the night. Are you confirming this preconception. I don't hear of guys from other countries wanting to share a room at all, except with a hot girl. It's not in our culture. It's better to get a very cheap or value for money room than to share one. I often book a budget priced room very close to a special girl's apartment to make it very easy for her to come and stay the night with me. This can be less than 1000 Baht per night. So it means I have two rooms on some nights. My normal lodging plus an extra room for girl liasons, or a ST Hotel room for taking the girl for just 1 hour or more.
Strong Cologne is considered by many as an attempted masking agent. I don't use Cologne myself, but a strong antiperspirant deodorant, yes with that Aluminium Chlorhydrate stuff (I like one sold here called Top Country with a light scent to it), and check my armpits regularly to see if need a shower. Indian TV channels are swamped with advertising for manly Colognes, but the important bit is cleaning, and finding ways to get rid of armpit bacteria, even if only temporarily. Some deodorants contain weak anti-bacterial things like Triclosan. Consult a doctor for anyone with a severe bacteria breeding armpit problem. Must be there are antibiotics that can help, for the duration of Thailand stay at least.
Indian guys are not a big favourite for Thai girls. Some Thai girls are prejudiced against various nationalities. Other Thai girls are fine with classy Indian or similar guys. In the Thermae I suffer from Thai girls ignoring me and wanting Japanese or Korean or other East Asian customers. We all have our preconceived ideas.
In Bangkok there are certain bars very popular with Indians. I guess that will be the case in Pattaya as well.
