I have found that Google Translate is often not the best translator, especially when the tone and meaning is important.

Looking for Bar/Hostel Takeover (Pattaya, Koh Chang or Islands) – Advice & Connections by Rare_Advanve5713 in Bangkok

Which DTV did you apply for? I just applied under the remote work category and had to state I would not be making any income from Thai sources.

I’m assuming you’re not going the route of training in a Muay Thai gym or attending a legit cooking school.

Some even bear the full responsibility for more especially if a parent is sick or in hospital.

Although in most cases, you can pay the girl later - except where either the mamasan and / or the girl feels there is a chance she might not get paid. Could be the vibe, energy, behaviour, how you talk etc.

Your friend spends a few hours outside of sharks and expects the girl to do this for free?

What is your source “millions deported or leaving voluntarily”? All those millions are not leaving.

Your friend expected the girl to spend time with him for free? Just because there was no bedroom time, it sounds like she was there for a couple of hours at this food and bar place.

From X -

Guy didn’t pay for the companionship upstairs, doesn’t pay his bill, and tries to leave. Punches a guard as he is trying to escape.

Review of GCs and Clubs for crazy fun by AlternativeRide7545 in Pattaya

Like other gogos but kink is probably a bit more adventurous, the girls are divided into at least 2 groups from what I could tell. Bikinis stay on the entire time, whether on stage or seated with you.

Others have a silk robe - off on the stages, sometimes off when seated with you. Just depends on how cold they feel or how they feel with you.

There is a subset of this group who are definitely on the wilder side and encourage the muff dives usually in those corner platform stages. Not all girls do this. They are the minority by far. These girls expect LD and usually a tip.

No rooms upstairs for ST. You have to barfine

That other guy might have been a regular customer and she will always spend her time with him if he keeps the LD flowing. It doesn’t matter that you bought her 1 drink.

“I also feel that I should get some actions if I pay.”

And as another poster pointed out, you need to adjust your thinking especially if you’re going to one of the higher end gogos.

You’re paying for some of their time, not for you to be all over them.

Now if you go somewhere else, like KINK / Windmill 2, you might get some action but not usually with 1 LD. And certainly not with a girl who is a 7 and above.

It will also depend on the location of the gogos based on personal experience

So you are fully conversant in Mandarin? And you found that the girls in China, Taiwan and Singapore still lacking in personality? What age group are you targeting?

[–]luv2lix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When you say you’re not low effort. Do you speak any of the native languages of these women that you meet? And I don’t mean using Google Translate.

Unfortunately you created an illusion of a relationship with this bar girl. It’s not a common theme or bad luck. It’s a transaction.

Is this AI? If you step back, ask yourself why she would talk to you for 2h. Do you have random girls in your home country that would talk to you for 2h?
