BMs with GFs/wives back home

How do you cope with single trips to thailand. How do you cope with her suspicions about what you`re up to?

A good plan is all it takes

I do it all the time. I usually spend two weeks per year travelling alone. Got a job that involves a lot of travelling so while on my way home from HK, Tokyo, etc. I pop in for a quick visit to BKK. Other times I officially "go" on trips elsewhere such as one year when me and my buddies where skiing in Austria (it ws a pain in the ass though to drag skies all the way to LOS but it made for a good laugh at Don M when our skies came out on the luggage carousel). The ideas are endless and I usually travel to LOS during low season to avoid to good weather that will ruin the cover......

Maybe you have different fares, but from belgium, a one way trip is often more expensive than a round trip... don't know why. So I will get the second option.

I have a Thai ex-wife who is back living with me. I plan a holiday in Phuket for early September. Her take on it, which is a view I have warmed to, is that I can have a lady from the bar for a night because I am on holiday!

The downside is that if I spend more than one night with the same girl this will constitute a relationship, for which she will cut off my best mate and feed him to the ducks!

One more thing I still don't understand in Thai culture... so, if you are on holidays, you can bang another girl and she doesn't mind?
Sure that if my GF did the same thing, I wouldn't take it so easy

Well, I have still many many things to learn... but good deal for you Steve

Job done

They are a funny breed Domi. I don't understand it myself I just take what I can get.

I think being a little like Darbs helps, if you don't like it you know where the door is. I take care of business here though, and she does not have a bad life.

Before i told her storys about where i go, but she find out and now after all these trouble i just tell her i need a time off.

She knows i go to thailand and what i probably do there... She just told me not to speak about it. She don`t want to know.

In my hometown i am honest and don`t cheat her. On holiday with my mates i can do what i want (so can she, if she goes on holiday alone)...
And i don`t want to know "same, same" what she does there.

I know a lot of people think what we do is wrong and we wouldn`t love each other, but thats not true. Everytime i come back from LOS i am happy to see my wife again.

For us this is better than make lies and all these crap.... But each to its own..

And yes we are married now since 8 years and i don`t want to break with my wife....

Hi Hugo
I agree with you. Every lie will come out one day or an another.
It is always better you say the true.
...and I donīt think what you do is wrong

the big lie

This can allways be a tricky subject... I live in hawaii and work for a large hotel chain with hotels all over the world fortunatly...I occasionally have to make trips overseas ie europe ,south america,asia ect for a few day's........... but play it off for much longer...I am not won who has to be in daily contact with my gf when on these trips....and that is the key...My last two trips to los got a little tricky but planning is everything ...allways go for the big lie when boxed into a corner..it's the only way out .. best of luck

OK then, lets introduce some new terms to the board:

Doing a ''Richie'' - setting up as a new member under a different name

Doing an ''Imagine'' - bringing up very old threads

Doing a ''Nanaplaza'' - talking absolute nonsense

Doing a ''Dude'' - getting banned.

The best that can happen is that someone does a ''Dawsey'' on the lot of them
