You think that you re paying to reserve her for when you get back there, but that isn't the way it works. TGs have many wonderful qualities, but loyalty and gratitude are not among them.

Ain't it the truth! It is like when you go crusin' the bars in Patong. The good ones always get snapped up first.
Some guys think that maybe if they pick a girl that is not as good-looking, then they won't have the same problems. Wrong! They are all cut from the same cloth, and even the ones who aren't as good-looking have their ways of attracting guys or they wouldn't have got you, would they?
I certainly can relate to the OP, because a year ago I pretty much could have written the same letter verbatim. I moved on, and it really didn't take me long to get over the guilt. Whenever I was feeling it, I would think of some of the tricks she played, and read some of her letters asking for money!!
Sometimes even when you are not in love with a girl, you can develop an attachment to her. We are only human. It is like when you were a kid, and brought in a stray dog, funny-looking, and your Mom says you will have to take it to the pound. But if the dog is around a few days, then pretty soon it starts looking so cute, looking at you with those big puppy eyes. If it is around for more than a couple days, then pretty soon it has won you over and your Mom, as well, and becomes your pet. It's a little like that with BGs, except for the part about your Mom, of course! But the big difference is that dogs don't ask you for money for every day or for gold. BGs do.
At the end of my last tour this year, the BG I finished my tour with was laying it on pretty thick. When she started to get to me, I would just stop and ask myself this question: "Would she feel that way, and say those sweet things to me, if I stopped giving her 1500 Baht per day?" That fixed my problem about falling for her sweet talk every time!
