Yes ! I'm still amazed that one guy who was so looking forward to going home to see Mama for Songkran called me to announce he was cutting short his visit and wanted to see me. Life back in the village can be awfully boring after they've tasted city life and city life can be lonely. It's nice to know they enjoy the time they've spent with you.

Particularly if you are resident here, so the boys know you're not vanishing in a week or two, and if you treat them nicely, they can really open up, reveal an amazing personality beneath the bar boy facade and make you feel good in a whole lot of ways that go beyond what the fuck 'em, forget 'em and pay the minimum bar hoppers will ever know.

And it's not just the gay guys. The boy who spent a week with me after I paid him for three days is straight, well muscled and at first had a somewhat rough demeanor, and the most amusing thing I've seen in awhile was him sitting naked, literally on the edge of the sofa, totally enthralled watching Over the Hedge on HBO, a cartoon movie with talking animals. It was one of the few things he watched on TV in which 100's of people weren't blown up, shot or torn asunder, but it totally fascinated him.

Thanks for sharing. It's nice to know others have found many of these boys to be so enjoyable to be with. I suspect there are a lot of men resident in Thailand who have regular favorites in the bars with whom they've established rewarding relationships even when cash & sex were the basis for them originally getting together.
