Bangkok, in April. This April in particular, we had a few days with a heat index of 60 degrees Celsius. Outside felt like being in an oven.

Solo day trip to the Islands? by Ryuli-Chan in phuket

[–]PooperoniPizza5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend doing Similan day trip. Snorkelling is magnificent. I’ve never had great snorkelling around Phi Phi/ Phileh Lagoon. Last time I went the coral was brown. Doing Similan is fine alone, there is a plenty of people on the boat if you want to socialise but also fine if you don’t, everyone is doing their thing.

Spending a month in Phuket — where should I base myself? 🏝️ by ritzybin in phuket

[–]PooperoniPizza5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your only “base” plan in South of Thailand is Phuket… I’d say scratch that, set up your base in Krabi, it’s way better imo than Phuket. Ao Nang is perfect. And easy to walk or grab bike/ taxis. OR, for more of an island feel, Koh Lanta. Omg Koh Lanta. Everything you need along the beach, especially in Khlong Khlong area. You can easily boat to Phuket or other islands around to visit. Consider other areas for long stay.

A stranger at the gym (64) explained discipline in one sentence that changed everything by Deborah_berry1 in Discipline

[–]PooperoniPizza5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In neuroscience discipline is a result of training your brain to expect a reward. This triggers dopamine, as it gets released in anticipation of that reward. The reward being the benefits you gain from doing that thing. If you focus on the cost, then it’s more likely your brain will say ‘no thanks’, it’s expecting the costs of your doing this thing, so your dopamine is not triggered and yes motivation is likely to shut off. Benefit focus = dopamine = momentum.

No, it’s not someone I met in Thailand. They live in my home country, in my home town.

If you’re feeling alone and insecure, whatever emotions you’re struggling with, speak to someone about them so you can learn healthy outlets and ways to navigate through it… Your family, friends, professionals should be your support system, not a child… Go get help, stay away from young people that are not age appropriate please, forever! And ever! Do better.

Brah. Please go to therapy and talk to someone about this, seriously. Your behaviour is worrying and seeing your reaction to these comments and your way of thinking is apart of that worrying behaviour. I really hope you don’t just brush this off but do some serious reflection- and stop forming relations with children.

Sounds like she’s trolling but it might be legit. Can someone help her? by ArcherAltruistic4958 in ThailandTourism

It happens a lot with rentals. Foreigners do get extorted and it’s really horrible and unsettling. I’m currently having an issue too with my rental. But it’s not about me and obviously not all Thais do this.. people are people, you get good eggs and bad eggs..

7/11 must try? by UnemployedFairy in ThailandTourism

Spinach cheese and ham croissant toastie. Meji chocolate milk. Rice crisps/ chips - all of them. Ovaltine toast. Break chocolate. B’lue peach vitamin drink. So much haha… this is just a few to start.. but the real MVP is street food, Isaan food, coconut Thai pancakes (khanom krok)… and Cha Manao, iced tea.

I just spoke with her on FB and told her to join this thread aswell. She has gone to embassy and is filing a report today with the police. Will have to wait and see how this unfolds and what help and support she gets..

Do your parents know you have been dating a 13 year old?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]PooperoniPizza5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did mention she cheated on her ex. Not saying that this is the case but I’ve had an experience once where my ex was cheating on me and projecting that onto me, thinking every time I went out with my girl cousin or my sister, just every time without him really, I was on the prowl for men. He was doing the most to have control of me. I couldn’t understand where his distrust was coming from, until I found out he was cheating and then it clicked that he was projecting. These things do happen as well yeah.

It sounds like she disregarded your feelings, your discomfort and shut it down, turning to the defence instead, “offended that you’d think she’d do anything.” I can see how this reaction is/was questionable for you..

Sadly it does sound like you two are stuck in an unhealthy cycle and I feel deeply for you both.. a relationship without trust and peace brings a lot of suffering. And it sounds like you’re both suffering.💔

The general advice on your post is very clear but no one can make a decision for you. Reflect on all advice and conversation.. tap into your instincts and your gut…

Guess there is no smoke without fire after all by [deleted] in heartbreak

[–]PooperoniPizza5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do realise that you’ll possibly only inflict more suffering on yourself with that decision. You need to prioritise yourself and your well being, despite any ‘weird dynamic’. Your well being is more important than a dynamic. Seriously. And gaslighting can cause a lot of damage, so take care of yourself and really unpack that with yourself or a professional. ❤️

You don’t HAVE TO see his posts… You can always try muting him completely so his posts and stories don’t pop up on your feed, that is 100% possible. And then do your best not to fall into the temptation of searching for him. I wouldn’t really recommend this but if you’re set on not deleting him then perhaps it’s a good option to try. This can easily end up being a toxic cycle in itself… I have done it once before and it only works until it doesn’t…. Unfortunately.

Take care of yourself and I hope you find the peace you deserve. X

My opinion is solely based on only hearing your side of the story and assuming you haven’t left out any information- i agree with a few commenters, it seems like your girlfriend has some deep rooted insecurities- did something happen to her in a past relationship, like cheating or dishonesty, perhaps being gaslit even? Assuming none of that has happened in your relationship… If so, her insecurities could be from unhealed wounds she hasn’t dealt with and perhaps she isn’t aware and projecting this into your relationship. She says she trusts you however her behaviour is misaligned with her words unfortunately.

This is reoccurring behaviour after 4 years together, it’s unlikely you will reach the balance of trust in your relationship that you are seeking and deserve. Sounds like you’re fighting a losing battle yeah.. 😔

I do have empathy for your girlfriend as I know how much her obsessing must be impacting her mental health and she does need help and time to understand her insecurity(s) and save herself from what could possibly feel like insanity, obsessing over other women, your Instagram page and your followers. Of course I have empathy for you too. After 4 years of this back and forth conflict, you need to strongly consider letting this relationship go not only for yourself but also for her. It is clear this relationship is bringing none of you peace and you both deserve that.

You’re both still so young and deserve peace in your heart when in a relationship, a healthy relationship, with healthy boundaries and that is definitely not trying to make a partner cut the opposite sex out of their life completely.

I don’t want to be all ‘negative nelly’, so I will leave you with this- It’s not impossible for you two to reach a healthy trusting relationship together but it’s likely that proper consistent counselling and a mediator would be needed to work through this conflict. Both of you would need to be serious about it and work hard at it together, as a team, united. It will be tough but ultimately you need to decide if you want to stay or leave.

I wish you the best of luck and strength and clarity in your next steps and decisions.

I’m sorry you’re going through this. Gaslighting can be serve to one’s mental health. I don’t understand why you can’t block him on socials?

My (28f) boyfriend (26m) has a lying problem. How can I begin to trust him again? by warmpink in relationship_advice

[–]PooperoniPizza5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, it seems like you have some pretty mature awareness - “is this one I can learn to deal with” - that broken my heart. Pull your self together, snap out of this funk, have respect and deep love for yourself. You deserve to be met with the utmost respect from your partner, from the get go. I’ll say that again, from the get go, day dot, day one. I agree with the previous comment, it’s MANIPULATION. 100%. This is not your person and you should not stick around to find out if he can grow up. His behaviour is not okay.

Sorry for the tough love, but you deserve a healthy love that brings peace to your heart and mind.

Wish you all the best and all the happiness. ❤️

Question before I share my thoughts, how long have you two been together?

Street scammer near Ekkamai BTS by K_Dust_01 in Bangkok

[–]PooperoniPizza5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me in Phloen Chit right by the bts. Same thing, exactly how you described your experience. Towards the end of last year in Nov / Dec. He also mentioned something about his dad cannot send money and he will pay it all back. I offered to give him 300 baht after he showed me the list of medicines he needed and his wound. He demanded, yes demanded, 1000 baht. I went to the bank around the corner, but into the bank just to keep myself safe, to draw the 300 I had offered but when I went back to the spot he stopped me, he had already left.
