So, I was telling you about Bangkok and how alive it can be, right? Actually, I started to experience this when J went away.Throughout my life I have always been “Mr. Nice Guy” (by the way, I bought a book about it and did not read it yet. It’s called “No More Mr. Nice Guy” and can be found at Amazon.com). Before getting married I had several girlfriends but it was only one at a time, no “over booking”. As a married man, I was faithful to my wife and for me there was only her, no one else. Then, with J, though we were not married, I respected her as if we were and never cheated on her. Well, I did spend time with other girls – two to be exact – but J and I were apart when it happened. And I mean apart as in “over” not as in “taking a time off”.

Now that it’s finally over with J, I am beginning to find my away around Bangkok and discovering its “singles” hangouts. Today I met two new friends: Meow and Saa (yeah, I know, it does sound like Pokemon names – chuckles - but all their nicknames are like that). Meow is 22 and Saa, 32. Both are pretty. After some time talking I started to like Meow better. It’s not that Saa wasn’t interesting – she was! And probably the prettiest – but I guess I liked Meow’s attitude and sense of humor better. She is fun, very talkative and smart, always with some cute or funny remark about things. We exchanged phone numbers and agreed to talk again tomorrow, when she is going to bring me some incense I bought and use the hotel pool in exchange for Thai lessons. Is this going to lead elsewhere? I do not know. I am not willing to settle down yet. I just started to learn how to enjoy my freedom!!!

Tomorrow I might have lunch with Vee, who I met before but did not show much interest in as I was “married”. She sent my mobile a nice Happy 2003 picture message, so I called and arranged this lunch. It’s yet to be confirmed, but it would be nice if it happened. Vee is very pretty and very tall. She is probably 1.72m when wearing high heels and I am only 1.68m. It would be funny if something actually happened. Let’s see how it goes.

I am afraid, though, that both of them, Meow and Vee, are not exactly what I am looking for. They are good company but there is something missing which I do not quite know what it is. I just hope I do not find out it’s love because that is going to be a hard one to find…
