Answer

It’s important to address this gently but directly. Share your feelings about their expectations and why they might seem unrealistic to you. - Try to understand where they're coming from. Their past experiences or cultural background might be shaping their views. - Suggest finding common ground. Discuss what you both want and see if there’s a way to meet in the middle, so both of your needs are acknowledged. Practical Pattaya note: Keep all interactions adult, voluntary and respectful. Venue charges, drinks, gifts or hotel access never replace clear consent. Confirm prices and policies before agreeing to anything, and protect identification, money and personal safety.
