When I talk about the Pattaya blues I am not referring to music. I am talking about the feeling of remorse you have after you have just spent the best three weeks of your life.
Every single man who has ever experienced Pattaya knows this feeling. The symptoms usually start two to three days before your flight back home.
You have been having a blast partying day and night for a few weeks and the reality of going back home is starting to sink in. You realize that in a matter of days you will be back to your miserable town, your terrible job, and cold weather in winter.
You start to realize that you won’t be able to get great meals for a few dollars. You are going to miss all of those lovely lasses and their Thai smiles. You will really miss the laid back, mai pen rai attitude that everyone in Thailand has.
With the blues setting in, you will try to live your last couple of days in Pattaya to the fullest. You will go out and eat, drink and be crazy. You will do all of the shopping that you should have done the first two weeks. You will try to cram another two weeks of fun into your last two days.
