[QUOTE=Evianist; 1055559]After living here for 8 months, this is what has changed for me:
-Bargirls are only for sex. I'm a lot less inclined to give them my number or see them regularly than I was when I first got here. I don't even like to take them back to my condo anymore. It's not looked upon well by your neighbors.
-Gogos are now only an occasional pleasure. Once you know each one well enough that you know the best place to sit and where the bathroom is located, you feel less inclined to visit more than every week or two.
-Massage parlors are more functional when you just want to get laid. Less trouble, less attitude, nice and easy.
-There is a lot of free stuff to be had. Particularly if you are under 40 and reasonably personable. And sometimes it's very nice to not have to pay. Until you get a few girls with emotional issues, at which point you want to pay again.
-Finding a good girlfriend is not easy. Especially if you want one who already speaks decent English, she's obviously another (or many) farang's throwaway. Most will have major trust issues. Not that it was easy to find a good lady back home, but it's no easier here.
-I get anxious and homesick when I leave Thailand for more than a week, even if it's only to a nearby country. I don't get homesick for the west, but I do for Thailand. When I get back I feel much better.
-Having sex with thai girls is still wonderful. I don't expect this will change. [/QUOTE]Update at 15 months:
-I avoid dating Isaan girls. They're always a problem. All smiles and open legs at first, and then the demands come. I've never had a problem with non-Isaan girls.
-In regards to day-to-day convenience, having a thai girl live or travel with you is extremely helpful. But you have to make sure you're getting a fair deal. They'll run you dry if you let them.
-However, they'll let you fuck around a bit, as long as you're respectful and discreet. Thai girls are more inclined to let men act like men, as opposed to the West where women prefer eunuchs.
-I've only brought one bargirl back to my place in the past 6 months. I picked her up at her apartment and took her directly to my condo just to hang out for the night, and yet she still insisted on wearing high heels and slutty clothes so that anyone looking at her would know she's a bargirl in under 3 seconds. It's best to keep them away from where you live.
-Rarely get out to gogo bars now. Miss those days. But don't miss how much money I was blowing. Drink + Ladydrink + Barfine + ST / LT rate + tip, with a spoiled princess attitude thrown in? Fuck that. There are other options.
-Hanging out in Thai areas is more interesting to me. Trying thai sex joints is too. I can't deal with being around tourists. They act like *******es, spoil women for no reason and throw money around.
-Occasionally I want to sleep with a white girl. It's been a long time. They almost seem exotic. But I'm sure I would hate it if I did it.
-When I talk to people back home, I can't understand how their minds work anymore. They seem clueless, and obsessed with things that are completely inane. I don't understand why they don't leave their seemingly miserable lives and come here.
- It can be easy to have endless sex and not do much else with your time. I try to cut back on it. Coming from the west it's hard to say no, especially to the free stuff, but it's necessary as it can burn you out after a while.
-Still don't like to leave Thailand. This place has a weird hold on me.

[QUOTE=Evianist;1140316]... I avoid dating Isaan girls. They're always a problem. All smiles and open legs at first, and then the demands come. I've never had a problem with non-Isaan girls...[/QUOTE]
The problem is not from where (location) the girl comes from, but mostly from which social environment (class in the societal hierarchy). A middle-class Isaan girl would act very differently than a girl coming from a poor farmer family, for instance (as explained [url="http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showthread.php?1031-Hatyai-Reports&p=1112624&viewfull=1#post1112624"]here[/url]). Many middle-class Isaan girls are quite decent companions.

). Many middle-class Isaan girls are quite decent companions. [/QUOTE]Yes agreed. But given that Isaan is the poorest area of the country other than the hill tribes of the north, the majority of Isaan girls aren't from middle class families. They're from poor families and have parents who constantly demand money and want them to find a dumb rich farang. Dating them is thus unpleasant.
Avoiding them is just a shortcut. If I met one who was obviously well-raised and had a decent job, I would date her.

[QUOTE=BKK Dreaming; 1140152]I wonder if it ever was like that, because the Go-Go owners are not going to like their girls to Freelance and cut them out of the BF, maybe they "might" go to Climax etc but not just across the street.
BK[/QUOTE]Yes It was like that. Couple of years ago when all the bars closed at 1am, you could wait outside by the Nana parking lot and there were loads of bargirls loitering waiting for one last customer, the bars owners have no say, as the BiB shut all the bars.

[QUOTE=Pro Fesseur;1139790]Yes, some gems can be found at night for instance on the Nana Hotel parking lot, near Robinson department store (between Soi 19 and Soi 15) , in front of and inside Thermae (between Soi 13 and Soi 15) , etc. Thermae is very Japanese-oriented nowadays, but a non-Japanese can still score there anyway. Biergarten (or Beer Garden) on Soi 7 is a renowned pick-up joint for freelancers (even in daytime) , as well as Gulliver's Tavern on Soi 5. Most of the girls that you notice waiting and making eye-contact during nighttime in the street between Asoke BTS Station and Nana Entertainment Plaza are freelancers. Many of them are not very attractive, but some really are. Going rate: 1000 baht ST per provider (sometimes, it's even cheaper than that, especially if you find two or three friends who are willing to go to your room for a threesome or a foursome, for instance) , and 1500-2000 baht LT. Very often, anal is on the menu even at this reasonable price.[/QUOTE]I would not be too optimistic about quality, and I get the feeling it's been declining over the years. There are a few gems but you need to be lucky. Sometimes there are a few at Nana parking lot (be careful, the most beautiful ones are ladyboys). I had a few great picks in Beer Garden some time ago but during the last two years I found nothing worth there (and rather old). Thermae has very pretty girls but the real pretty only go with Japanese and will not even look at you if you are farang. You can score there as a farang but only with the less pretty girls (who will probably expect a high price because it's Thermae). In discos and disco pubs, it's fun, but difficult to find a girl who is under 28 and has no child.
So it depends how picky you are. For 1000 ST no barfine no lady drink it's a good deal. And as mentioned the girls are usually very friendly. Personnaly, when I have enough money, I tend to use more expensive but higher quality options.

The double dot at the end of your post shows you tried to put a smilie and was overridden.
You can however, edit your report after and put the wink back in like this: ;)

Strange?
I was in Baccara and noticed the waitress speaking to 2 asian guys behind me in Thai. They answered in flawless Thai with no apparent accent as though they were born to it. Normally I can detect Thai with an accent spoken by Koreans and Japanese ("mai chat"). These two were just so perfect they really seemed like Thai although not particularly dark skinned.
There eyes were not real slanty like Chinese / Japanese. My Baccara girl later confirmed that they don't have Thai customers, so I suppose they could have been Korean or similar but rasied here since quite young. I was itching to ask them but thought I better mind my own business just a little. They had called over one of the not so pretty upstairs girls, so this struck me as not so Thai behaviour. I suppose its more likely they were from somewhere else but just spent many years here.
Of course my downstairs girl was way better, with looks a little like Katreeya English (I don't now how to spell that TV star name).

I just had a quick look at some pictures that you posted in the photo gallery, Duniawala.
For instance, those:

I don't want to offend you, mate, but you may very easily find girls that are much prettier (IMHO) than these women in all those venues mentioned earlier by Pro Fesseur. But it's just a matter of personal taste, I suppose.

Nana Plaza Closing
[QUOTE=Kogal_Lover;1140501]What happens now when the bars close? The girls don't head out to the parking out lot anymore?[/QUOTE]Most of the Nana Plaza go-go bars close around 2 AM.
Several years ago, real girls use to hang outside of Nana Plaza after closing (some were freelancers, some were there after work from Nana). It was a neat scene. But now the street outside of Nana Plaza is full of ladyboys before and after closing. Not too many real girls hang around there; it is mostly ladyboys.
If you are not bi-sexual or gay, the ladyboys ruined the scene outside of Nana Plaza.
After closing between 2AM to 3AM, there seems to be a steady stream of girls walking out of Nana Plaza to Sukhumvit (probably to go eat or go home). You probably can pick them up at that time / location.

[QUOTE=Kogal_Lover;1140501]What happens now when the bars close? The girls don't head out to the parking out lot anymore?[/QUOTE]They are still around.
Some hang out "in" the carpark, as opposed to in front of the carpark (and Nana) and as mentioned, you will need to fight your way through LB's.
Some go into Nana Liquid, or up to Climax and Insomnia.
Others eat along the many stalls on Suk between Soi 3. 15.
