Pattaya is a different ball game. I have not lived in Pattaya.
Only Bangkok. I would never assume to be anything more than an ATM to the boys I know in Pattaya. Even if they do say I LOVE YOU 100 times.
Any why am I deluded? Some of the boys I am friends with have more money than me. Rich families. Nothing delusional at all. Probably helps that we are a similar age.
