Simple. When you enter a bar and see a boy you like, immediately ask him over for a drink. Don't wait. It only obligates you to buy him a drink but you have him for a short time - unless another guy wants to off him, in which case the mamasan will usually give you the option to off him before asking him to move over to the other guy.

My guess is the fact that you are only 31 probably means the boys assume you may not be as good a tipper as an older guy. Make it known that you are not a cheapskate. Pop a 100 bt bill in the pants of the guy/s you like. You'll soon get attention.

But if you also got no attention in Bangkok, there is clearly something wrong with your bar technique.
