    I think the real question is were you ever scammed while over seas?

    because after 2 posts of drivel it just sounds like you potentially turned down a threesome

    This is like those episodes of Archer where they take place with all the same people but it another time or location.

    Happens in many tourist spots here.

    I dabble a bit in the old 3 card trick at race meetings and the like. I find Clare people and Dubs the easiest to make money out of.

    I will later, off for a shower now, then its a tuk tuk to to town town to get me some vittles and after that pop into that bar where I bumped into that 24 year old hot chick. I should have taken her number last night but doing that is like committing to her...
    Many years ago I learned not to take or give a number to an Asian chick as its like a marriage proposal and they will haunt you 24/7 wanting to know where you are and what you are doing...A guy like me doesn't need that kind of committment. Esp in Asia where chicks are like a dime a dozen and easy to get along with compared to the old up tight Irish bags that are single and looking for a man to hate and abuse...angry frikken cows..mooooo

    So 50 hitting on 25 is ok, but 65 hitting on 40 isn't?

    If it happened as you say in your opening post then you messed up. There was no scam. Just your paranoia and you ran away from a threesome. No wonder your Tinder date deleted you.


  • Site Banned Posts: 160 ✭✭Kidkinobe


    Getting back to hot chick in the white tight short dress....cos Im home now, alas she wasnt in the bar where we first met I was secretly looking forward to seeing her again despite what happened last night just before we parted ways...Of course I was in town early and wasnt in form for another night of drinking...Im a 50 year old sensible bloke and need to save my self for Friday night when I have a date, just a meet and a chat with a 21 year old Canadian chick who is here on voluntary work, she is black you know..which sort of proves Im not in any way racist...bumped into her two weeks ago on tinder and have been chatting since but I suppose thats going off topic and need to finish of White dress chick before I start on black Canadian chick...
    Anyway, during white dress chicks pool playing, I managed to grab her attention, which is easy for a guy like me, and we came to a deal, if she made it through to playing me, who ever lost had to get in the beers...Of course she lost and we didn't end up playing pool until way later and then I won my game which meant I was delayed even further to getting around to getting right into her with my witty banter and smooth chat up lines...I threw the next game so I could go focus on her, she had taken up position outside with her massive weapon..
    I finally got to go join her and she passed on her water gun to me, I was surprised she could actually lift it as she was so petite and femine and it was such a monster piece of tech...It was at this moment that I realised the man she was with had vanished..well not vanished, he was inside crying into his beer cos I had stolen his chick.
    She got very touchy feely up close and personal over the course of the next two hours, she was a delight to hang out with, a pure breath of fresh air..I ordered in some pizza from across the road, we both went and sat in a corner and ate that...our eyes locked as if we were in love.
    We talked about going out later on to a club, if you could call a club in Siem Reap a club...its mostly just sheds or big rooms with a DJ, bar and a few fairy lights hanging off what ever is available to hang off...I was up for it but the pizza started to kick in not long after we had finished and I suddenly was feeling washed out...Over the course of the night I was tossing up whether I should ask this chick back to my room, she was def up for it by the constant touchy feely she was doing but when you ask a chick back to your place when drunk, its always a bit touch and go the next morning, you wake with a random chick and 9 times out of 10 you don't remember her name, then you have to take a dump and if its a really bad one, which it usually is after a night of beer, you have that fresh pooh odour wafting around the hotel room and then you have the awkward arrangements of trying to get rid of her cos you are sick of looking at her and I need to get on with my single man lifestyle routine...Long story still long, I decided to not ask her back, I was tired and drunk but fully aware of the consequences of inviting her back...So I told her I couldn't take her back to my room tonight but would like to meet her tomorrow evening, she said that would be good and we could meet here...but first I must tell you something..I was expecting her to say she was married but no..."Im a boy" were the words that fell from her beautiful pouty full lips...

    OMG, I don't believe you and I reached in between her legs for a quick feel Ala Crocodile Dundee style..Joking, I didn't for I am a gentleman..
    I was genuinely knocked for six as my first encounter with a lady boy happened maybe 20 odd years ago...it was the same deal with her back then, she was a hottie and I was naive and didn't have a clue until she told me..but since then I have got around with many lady boys, and can spot one from 20 paces no problem, one of my friends was a lady boy, I spent weekends with her on her fathers farm in North Thailand catching turkeys with her very gay brother, their father raised turkeys which were sold at various times of the year, now I don't know if you have ever chased and caught turkeys with a gay Thai man and his ladyboy sister but it is an experience that I would totes recommend just to experience the gay and shrill screams of both of them when a turkey went a bit spazzo ..Anyway, I know my way around a lady boy but this chick was next level stuff, everything about her was lady, except the dangly bit between her legs..Once I got over the initial shock of being totally shafted by the very sexy chick and once I got over the fact that I missed out on recognising her real gender I had to submit and say...Well you got me there lady...Moving on from that I stayed about 30 minutes while she filled me in on her life and me telling her that Im not into ladies with pee pees...Of course meeting tonight as we were in the process of organising when she hit me with her news was totally forgot about which is why I went to the pub tonight to see if she was there...alas she wasnt and now I am sort of feeling a bit sad and lonely and rejected. Last thing we did was have a hug and say goodbye and totally pissed at myself for not organising to meet her proper, not for rooties of course but just to hang out with as she is a very fun chick...much like the one I caught turkeys with, she was married to some head honcho in the RAF and was mostly out of Thailand leaving her single to get out and about. I met her through Lala, Lala was one of my ex longer term Thai GFs...Lala was a real lady and I know this because I saw her vagina. But I am sure I will bump into her again as Siem Reap is a pretty small place, as an example, I mentioned before how I gave a driver 2000 riel for each of his kids, well as I was cruising home from town tonight I bumped into him and wife and 3 kids, he stopped me in the street and introduced me to his fam and thanked me from the bottom of his heart for the teeny tiny little gift I gave to his kids. That kind of made my night. And to finish, heres a vid of some hot lady boys...you can clearly see their masculine features if you know where to look...My white dress chick had none of the masculine features...

    Your benchmark for what constitutes being educated is pretty low if it is limited to being able to tell the time on a 24Hr clock.

    Sleep well. Hopefully you will have excited and wonderful dreams while asleep in the same way you have them while you are awake.

    Wow, sounds like you are living the life out there man. Maybe when I turn 50 I can do something similar myself.
    Any chance you can post some photos of your trip, just so we can get a feel for what the place is like?

    Last thing I would do in Asia is going after an African, Spanish or black Canadian woman. They are all westerners, empowered, femminist, with a extense sexual experience and so on. If a man go to Asia is because he wants a woman that is not contaminated.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,083 ✭✭✭Farawayhome


    I was in Thailand before, Phuket was one of my destinations. I met this really hot local girl. Great body and was showing it off in a skimpy costume. We were getting on great and she asked me back to her place, she said she had a surprise for me. I was intrigued so we went back to hers and started kissing and what not, started taking off our clothes. She had great tits but then I took off her shorts and guess what? She didn't have a cock!! I was scammed.

    I was there in 2002 and had my kidneys stolen as well as my liver, spleen and left bicep.
    Flew straight back to the UK where I had them replaced on the NHS.
    Brexit means I wouldn't be able to get replacements if it was to happen these days.

    I get around a bit and heres my latest experience.
    Im a single 50 year old bloke that loves getting around Asia..If you come to my home and knock on my door and no one answers, I am probably somewhere in Asia...
    Right now I am in Siem Reap, Cambodia, you older generation might remember the TV ads for the starving children in Cambodia in the 1970s and the Trocaire box collection. There are still many families here getting by on a dollar a day but they are out of sight in the rural areas. I can spend $6/7 on one meal, this would last a family in rural Cambodia week.
    In fact one night I spent close to $25 and that was the night of the scam..
    I was on Tinder and hit a match, she was a South African girl, teaching in Cambodia, here 2 years, 32 years old, single obviously, recently divorced or so she told me.
    We got chatting and decided to meet, she is like 20 years younger than me and it was just going to be a few drinks and a chat on a random Monday night.
    We met as planned and she was a breeze to get along with, easy going, friendly, chatty, polite etc etc...Now like I say, I have been around the block and have gotten into and out of some dodge situations in Asia and they all involved women off the internet, but this lady seemed legit and friendly and a bit of a looker to boot.

    Siem Reap is well known for its MArijuana and the topic came up if I took the odd toke...Sure, I don't go out and buy it but if there is some wafting around in the air, I will be happy to share a toke, so she asked me if I want some...I was a bit hesitant at first as it was getting on in the night but she twisted my arm.
    So off we went, down these back streets about 11pm at night walking further and further from the safety of the tourist zone, where tourist like me buy the over priced food and drinks.
    On the way there she was on the phone to a friend to come join us, her friend was from Spain, mid 30s and also a teacher. So thats two teachers out on a Monday night smoking weed..

    We arrived at the little hut which had a coulee of dodgy looking westerner hippies sitting out front, clearly off their frikken heads on weed or perhaps something a little stronger like opium.
    This joint had a bar and a couple of sofas and random chairs scattered about, all very cosy.
    I ordered 2 whiskeys and coke, $1 each, and she ordered a big fat doobie, $2.
    And we sat and lit up..first draw for me led to a coughing fit, man that stuff was strong and when you only take a toke about twice a year it really hits you hard.
    Nevertheless, I was soon sat in comfort, sipping on my whiskey with my new South African friend beside me...and then she showed up.
    The spanish chick was like a vision from heaven when she entered the small dark room, she kissed my friend on the cheek, I stood to greet her and she kissed me on the cheek and then she sat down to my left on the sofa...
    So picture the scene, one dingy bar, one crap sofa, me in the middle, to my left, one hot chick, to my right another hot chick.

    It was about this time little alarm bells started going off in my mind, with big flashing lights.
    Was I too late, was my drink spiked already, we had chatted about roofies earlier in the evening when talking about the dangers of travelling alone, be it male or female. On top of this I was also a little stoned which added to my paranoia, the room seemed to be getting darker and closing in on me.
    I tried to convince myself that these two were not scammers, I didn't know the Spanish chick but I had spent a week on Tinder chatting to Africa Girl and over the last few hours saw no signs of anything awry.
    Then things got weird, the girls were chatting across me and asking about what we should do, it was hitting midnight, I was a little drunk and stoned and so was Africa.
    She mentioned that she had a bottle of whiskey back in her place, maybe we could get more weed, some coke (for the whiskey, not to snort) and all 3 of us go back to hers, when she was saying this, her hand was gently rubbing my leg and giving Spanish a dirty little smile, she was making it very clear what was going to happen.
    "Okay, I said...Lets go', We walked out the door soon after with coke cola and another two joints, waited for about 2 minutes and a tuk tuk came along, I let the ladies in first and I flustered around with my bag while they gave instruction to the driver to where to take us.
    And with that, I took a look at the ladies and said...'Sorry ladies, I have to go' and swiftly walked up the street in the opposite direction in which the tuk tuk was pointing...I don't know where I was going and I didn't look back to witness the look of confusion on the faces of these two ladies.
    And thats another one of those nights where I don't know if I was going to be raped and robbed by a pack of hungry Cambodian men or a night where I was going to heaven and back.
    But, next day I was deleted from tinder, clearly a scam and fortunate enough to get away lightly....It kind of reminds me of the time I was in Bangkok about a decade ago and these two ladies approached me in a shopping Mall as I was looking at the Menu in the window of a restaurant..
    "You are eating here' They asked
    "I am thinking about it'
    "You come to our house and we will make you lunch"
    My mind was saying "its a scam don't do it' But when I opened my mouth to the decline their offer what came out was
    "Sure, I would love to go to yours for lunch"
    5 Minutes later we were in a Taxi heading to their house...

    What a waste of time it was to read this

    This is the travel forum.

    Not the kind of quality you d usually get here. You d have to wonder about the standard of person who would write something like this at fifty. Its not remotely entertaining.

    Im a 50 year old woman and I travel a lot. Never been scammed.but you need your full wits about you travellling.

    Not half wits.

    Christ would people lighten up. They're travel stories not the financial accounts of the Deutsche Bank or whatever - although that's currently looking quite promising* :pac:

    If the OP is using some poetic license - so what. Some of the best travelogues I've ever read were a mixture of fact, fantasy and whatever makes for an interesting story. :p

    The worst were boring monologues of accounts of what people had for breakfast and how they treated their holiday induced foot fungus. But whatever floats your boat I suppose.

    The travel forum is not the same as after hours.

    There is another forum for travel reports. Maybe ask for one to be started for sex tourism.

    Im not sure I am alone in finding this a complete load of irritating badly written bull**** with no real value.

    This is not a travelogue, its a monologue. A very monotonous monologue. This very badly writen monologue peppered with racism, sexism, exploiting poor people and sad behaviour is not what travel is about for people with an interest in responsible travel.
