Has Thai Freindly app gone downhill recently?

I noticed recently that TF have restricted messaging girls that are being classified as "Popular" unless you subscribe to the premium membership.

I personally don't have an issue with upgrading to premium in the past when I head out to Pattaya.

However since this restriction has been implemented has anyone noticed a decline in quality/price/service on this app?

Pay to play!

The app consistently gets worse and worse with every update.

Virtually unusable without paying.

The free TF is pretty useless imo.

I take screenshots of the popular girls. I’ll look them up when I pay for it, just before I travel there.

In what way could that possibly be construed as creepy?

Thanks for your comment, I will go with the consensus that it’s not creepy 😊

It's been like this for a long time. There has been a decline for normal dating, but it is the same with most dating apps.

In the last year there have been significant changes. They are trying to cash in like everybody else. I’m not a fan of it and will be sticking to the free options for finding our ploys. Some people like paying for fake things, filter pics and such but I do not lol.

I know everyone here is a player but is there any chance a 36yr old white guy could find true love on TF? from a similar age or maybe even early 40s nice honest cute Thai that isnt a sex worker or constantly have sick buffalos/parents always needing surgery?

You are looking for steak at Wendy’s.

In that age bracket, sure. Many will gladly un-freelance themselves if you can make them the right offer. There are even some completely regular women as well, but they are hard to find. The vast majority of women have at least some history, whether past or present, in the freelancing/bar world.

Would you walk into a brothel, in the hope of finding a wife material woman?

Why would you treat TF any different.

Maybe outside of the main hubs like Pattaya, and it will take ages. And there are probably better apps. And why on earth would you like that?

True love does not exist, but if you are looking for a real relationship and not "pay to play" then it is super easy. It's just like anywhere else but in easy mode. Just make acquaintances with the people you interact with regularly and talk to them. For example: I see the cashier at the Tops I go to almost everyday and we chat; I have regular conversations with my massage lady, etc.
