I am quite happy and content

It's far more telling that you felt the need to mention those things.

Fun - some stuff is hysterical, but anyone looking to forums for "fun" must be sorely lacking it in the real world.

Making Friends - ditto. The only forum user I'd consider a friend is Pat and that's only because we met accidentally the first time. Anyone that lacks sufficient friends in the real world via work sports and other interests so looks for them on forums is a sad misfit scrote. Same goes for anyone that sees forum usernames they haven't met as being their friends.

Hardly, it's part of the "forum experience" for most normal people who aren't obsessed psychos.

Your uptight seething & loathing personality prevents you from comprehending what you read, smeggles. Having fun on fora does not mean a lack of it elsewhere.

A very sad misapprehension, yet again. Socialising with forum users one wouldn't otherwise have met, isn't an indication of being some sort of misfit.
What the fok is wrong with you?

Such a jumble of contradictions!

I don't actually know anyone in the real world that uses forums. It's a pretty unusual thing to do.

The impression I'm getting though is you think that most people use them and so it's somehow normal. I guess that's the risk you face if your social life begins to focus on it - you lose all perspective and sense of normality.

Fluke, what will you do if your alleged gf says that you have to pay for her to go to university in bkk and if you don't she'll go to the police and tell them you misled her into becoming your gf by promising to move to bkk with her and pay for her uni life?

I know that she isnt like that , shes honest and decent .
But although I am quite sure she wouldnt do such a thing , I do know that some people can be deceptive or just change personality .
If she were to adopt that approach , I'd just quietly remind that she clearly stated she was 18 when I first met her and she was the one who first introduced herself to me and instigated our friendship .
She also has her own income and doesnt need or want any money from me

Which makes her asking you to pay for those flights to the cosplay thing a mystery.

Personally I wouldn't want to gamble on the prospect of Thai jail to the whim of a typically flaky 17 year old or whether the police give a damn about my unprovable and irrelevant claims that she said she was 18.

When I met her, she was going to BKK and back by train , as the then 5000 Baht return flight was more expensive .
A 14 hour journey each way .
I told her that flights were a lot cheaper now and I offered to pay the difference so she could get a flight instead of the train .
I went with her to the airport and booked and paid for the flights , and didnt ask her to give the train fare back to me .
And it continued like that furthermore
CM > BKK flights are about 1000 Baht these days , even as low as 720 B one way .
I am quite happy to pay for "luxuries" and am pleased she has a hobby as in Cosplay .
Her and her Cosplay "gang" regularly meet up in Cosplay events all over Thailand .
I looked at her FB Cosplay group and the page heading was :
*My Parents told me not to talk to strangers........................but you seem OK *
Ha ha, had to laugh .
We just sort of like hang out together sometimes , yesterday we went to the Sunday market , then went to a restaurant for a meal , I then went to watch football and she went home .
Just a friendly casual relationship , she has told me that she isnt interested in moving in together , settling down and having kids yet .
She wants to finish Uni, get a job, have a career and think about settling down and having kids in ten years time .

There's a clue for you there, Dumbo!

A clue to what ?
I asked how old she was and that was her reply .
