Hej
Den här killen tycker jag beskriver det hela ganska bra.
Are Thai people really dishonest or is it just a stereotype?

I hear a lot of people say Thai people are dishonest and only after your money
I've barely had any bad experiences since I got here 2 month ago. The only bad experience I had was in Bangkok dealing with tuktuk and suitshops lol
I cycled from Bangkok to Chiangmai and once I was 100km away from Bangkok the people were so friendly and accommodating even if I didn't want anything from them.
I had a guy give me free orange juice just because he wanted to speak to someone from the UK.
I dated a Thai chick and okay maybe I was unsure about a few things that could have been lies but I mean you gotta be careful with relationships anywhere.
Landlords have been great and helpful.
Massage ladies flirt with me, kaaaaaa good night I love you.
I don't partake in pr*stitution btw.
Saying that I checked out a hooker bar and made it clear I didn't want to partake and just had a drink there, host still treated me well and I made one of the escorts laugh on stage cause I was being awkward ahhhaa
I went for a joint and the owner gave me a free. Bong Rip of his premium bud lol.
Old ladies let me washup at there's cause I got muddy and I had a leg rash so one of them called their English speaking relative to tell me to go to the doctor lol.
Idk people were friendly in Bangkok for the most part but the more north or out of tourist areas I go the friendlier I found.
People welcomed me to shop with them and recommended me buy like pastries and stuff and let me eat them at their place.
Ye that's my experience so far.
As far as fitting in with the locals, I recon it's not that hard to get Thai friends and Thai girlfriends but I mean as long as you aren't broke and working a Thai job the money separation isn't something I'd even want to fix.
If me having money is what separates me from fitting in then so be it ahha.
Living here has made me want to make even more money though so I can spend even more money on local businesses. I ain't trying to be broke in a 3rd world country. That doesn't sound like fun anywhere.
I haven't tried the south out yet like Phuket and Pattaya, maybe they're different. I'm currently in Chiang Mai and having a blast tbf
