Mr Thick Skin (TS) - An Interactive Session

Hello boys and girls,

I would like to to try something different this time. I want to make this an INTERACTIVE BLOG TOPIC for my readers. I hope you could participate and share your comments ya ;-)

Below is a Real Case! Our subject is Mr. Thick Skin (TS), Chinese, Hokkien (a chinese dialect), Single, aged 28 years old and running a small business. Oh Yes, by the way he is no BRAD PITT or PIERCE BROSNAN, but he does look a bit like PUA CHU KANG! And this is his story ...

Mr TS is dateless but an EXTREMELY POSITIVE person. All this years, since in his early 20s, he tried very hard to date girls outside the street. But that's not it, he has criteria! The girl has to be long hair, slim, pretty and preferably must wear spaghetti strap! So whenever he saw a potential target, he will go up to the innocence girl and try to chat her up. Usually the conversation will sounds like this; "Hi, how are you? What do you do today? Can I be your friend? What is your mobile number?" (Definitely not a SMOOTH Talker!) So far it has failed him MISERABLY!

At times, when he got so many rejections, he will approach Dr Love and complaint things like why he has no girlfriend! Is it so difficult to be his friend? Or why are the pretty girls so snobbish! Dr Love had advised him to lower his criteria and expectations! However, he always told Dr Love that all his ugly guy friends have very good looking girl. IF they CAN, why not HIM! Dr Love even told him straight into his face that he needs to look into the MIRROR, but he will IGNORE the FACTS. He still insisted that he looks like CHOW YUN FATT. DUH!

His mom has introduced many girls from other smaller cities or villages (any interested applicant out there?); however, he thinks they are not classy enough. His wish is to have a girlfriend from Japan, Hong Kong or even Korea. Those you can find from foreign drama series or movies.

Mr. TS however is a nice person in real life, except that he is living in this LALA LAND. So what will you do if you have a friend or a son like Mr. Thick Skin? What would you advise to this POOR SOUL? Is there still HOPE for Mr. Thick Skin?

What say you? ;-)

(Attention: All your comments will be reverted to Mr. TS. I am sure he is eager to hear what others have to say!)

Dr Love, firstly, I am sure most of your patients here have real problem. The way you said that this Mr TS is a "real case" sounds like the rest of your patients are faking it. I am disappointed in you :P :P :P

Secondly, I think I have known a couple of Mr TS also except that they are not as ultimate as Mr TS. The problem with TSes is that they have the confidence and courage to woo girls but they forgot one basic thing... sincerity. Classy girls go for the heart. A sincere heart is sure to win a classy girl.

His approach will probably get him village girls. So, yeah, maybe he can get a couple of "pak ku"s (North Aunties, north implying China.. hehehe) by being so gung ho but to get Jap, Hongkies and S.Koreans - well, maybe if he pop in a few ecstasy or marijuana.. he can get these girls.. in his dreams! LOL!

Dear FY, thank you for your comment. The main reason I quote 'Real Case' was because I do not wish my readers thought I made the story up :P

Sorry for your dissapointment ya!

Is this TS rich? The way you describe him, eventhough he owns a small biz, it's like one big corporate to him maybe. Or his small biz is bringing him Rm1mil/year and he still considers it small? The way he approaches people, girls, is it the same way he approaches his biz clients? What's his biz like? If he's into sales and IF the way he approaches girls and his clients is the same, then, I will assume his biz is not doing too good. But if his biz is doing well, maybe he can consider finetuning his approach when approaching girls. To be more gentle, subtle, not so direct. And, looking on the streets, sounds too desperate and the girl will misunderstand, thinking you're picking her up for an ONS or even treating her like a pros******. Why doesn't he registers himself in those match making agencies? He feels they are not upto his standard or he feels he's way too high std to register there? Maybe, he doesn't want to PAY for the registration.

Hi cruising by, thanks for your comment.

OK some MORE Background of Mr TS here. He runs a cookies stalls from pretty comfortable family background. So he is not a smooth businessman. He tried very hard to speaks nicely but his technique may be inappropriate.

His business is OK accept that he will be very depress whenever the business is quiet.

Good suggestions on the agency eh!

ok, this explains then that he's not used to tough life. he thinks/feels ppl can accept him easily lah. just like from a well to do family, everything comes easy, but this time, he feels the girl doesn't come easy. So, in other words, he's spoilt and he thinks he has worked damn hard about it, but in actual fact, he hasn't. He doesn't know where he should improve. BTW, I think his ego is stopping him getting into those dating agencies. His mentality has been tuned in such a way, he has to undo his behaviour 1st, the not so good ones though. Just like asking himself, if he really thinks he has to improve on certain things. if he feels he doesn't need any improvement, then, so be it.
IF he really WANTS to improve, ask him to do himself a favour by signing up for PERSONAL COMMUNICATION courses. I'm sure he can afford them. A short term investment with a lifetime gain.

Eg. can i hv ur number? - ignorant question to ask (only another desperado would give u her number)
can we be friend? - another ignorant question to ask (only another ignorant person would say yes)

In my opinion, this guy is a loser. He totally degrades women. Who does he think we are? His whores?

I got a few superb suggestions for dear Mr TS:

1) If he lives in KL, jump off Twin Towers

2) If he lives in Penang, jump off Penang bridge

3) If live in Klang, jump into Klang river lah

hhahahahahah

Aiyah doktor lurve, why you misinterpret my good intentions one. I meant bungee jumping mah ... maybe after the adrenalin rush he will come to his senses leh? Mana tau kan?

Don't think I am so evil one mah.

he degrades himself, not the women. He thinks women are as low as him, but in actual fact, he never treated them with respect. Therefore, in my opinion, he never degraded women but himself. Maybe, he had a bad experience with women, maybe there was once he showed too much respect for a female and it hurt him badly.

So doktor cinta, any replies from him so far? Care to share?

Hi all,

I will write to MR TS and find out his opinions from the comments posted here.

If you are being annoyed by MR TS, tell him how you feel. If he does not stop there and driving you up to the wall, tell him he may lose your Friendship.

I do not like to suggest to stop being his friend, but you need to WAKE him up if he is bothering you.

Good suggestions from Cruising By indeed (practical at least comparing to Bungee Jumping eh! ), I will find out from him soon.

Many thanks for all the comments.

I have a friend that is almost like Mr TS... well, my friend is a wood. He's boring. His friends find him boring. There is no way anyone expects him to get a girl. I mean, if his guy friends can find him boring, we bet the ladies will be absolutely bored and sien with him. And he's very tai lum yan.. he's not gentleman. He does not know shit about being a gentleman. But guess what? He's married with a kid.. and expecting another. Imagine a person who walks in front while his wife carries his 2 month old son with one hand and carry the baby bag with the other. How gentleman is that? And yet, my friend is married...! What is his secret?

1. He's kinda good looking
2. He's RICH
3. He's a family person ie he doesn't "wet" or go pub or drink
4. He married a kampung girl. He always tell us that his wife very kampung. This also dunno.. that also dunno. In our opinion, his wife is not kampung. She's sreetsmart, which is probably why she married him because of point 1-3. BTW, wife is pretty also.

So, please tell Mr TS to look for a kampung girl who is also streetsmart who knows that her future and quality of life can improve if she marries a rich man.

Which also means Mr TS has to really lower his expectation la. You want high class girls.. well, there is a price to pay for that.

SLOOI, if he's crazy for gf because all his friends have gf at the age of 21, then he just want gf for having a gf's sake. Will this work out then? Like not sincere like that.

is slooi918=TS?? Same person?
I think you really have got some manners problem. If you want something, you say please and you don't demand for a favour. The way you write here, puts me off, so I will hold it until you get things straight.

Hello all .. I have a little comment for the responses here. I think some of us are not so good in composing a DECENT or GOOD English sentences.Thus, I suggest we do not take the comments personally.

For those having difficulty expressing, please use SMALL CAPS, and use the word PLEASE when you want a favor ya!

We all work in PEACE ;-)

Hey TS,

Love is not everything,.. sometimes,you just have to let it be,and take things easy.. when the timing is rite, you will find the right girl la, trust me..

I just feel that some commentator are so mean,but i agreed with the comment from Crusing,that i think you could try the match making agent la..but, just beware.. as not all agents are the "clean" one.. Some could cheat you too, where I have read some news where after you have paid the money, or a few weeks after you met with the girl,and paid all the money, the girls run away like most Indonesian maid, becoz they have seen this opportunity to run away from a poor city/country to your country.

Further, why must you choose girls from Korean/Japan? Can u speak their languages?

My advise to you is, don't aim for too high la,.. the "maintainance fee" for these pretty girls are very high ka.higher than you could imagine, and sometimes, when they are with you, they are only after your money only... Do you really want a girl like that??..Not worth it la,..

If i were you, i would choose someone who is not so pretty, but hard working,and and could help you with your business lo, rite? The most important is she is "real" to you..

A simple girl would suits you more than a "spagatti" girl...Trust me..

One more thing,.. you should focus on your business first since you are still young,.. when you become a big boss, girls will automatically come to you like a Magnet... you don't even have to chase...that's another method to get a girlfriend..work hard now for a better future and for a better girl la,.. when you don't get one, just think it positively, that
"a better one is still waiting for you somewhere out there..."

I wish you could think of some of my comments and advise..

Is TS looking for love or for companionship or for trophy wife?

I have been lurking around this thread and while I have not been posting, I feel I should because this thread amuses me. As a guy, I am ashamed of you, Mr TS. I think you whine too much. If you can't get a gf, so what? Be man about it. Continue looking. Stop whining to your friends and families. I'd hate to be your friend.
