I've been a good boy for 7 years.
I've been very close to not being a good boy (the wife doesn't read this)
But a last minute reality call solved that one.

The big issue for you, is that it's going to be exotic (unless your wife is Asian)
They are going to be..... difficult.
And it will be.
The focus, will be the end plan.
Also, if the guys you hang on with, frequently go....
Then change friends.
I did.
Met some nice people to hang around with. You can still have fun, still enjoy yourself, but you don't have to cross that boundary.

Also, you need to choose your bars too. Some will be famous for what you want to avoid.

You don't love your wife so leave her and sleep around.

Plus if the mrs wants you to go perhaps she doesn't want to be with you either.

I was in a similar position and I didn't take the assignment. I was offered a job in Shanghai. At the time my mother-in-law had a brain tumour, which was ultimately terminal though we didn't know that at the time. My wife didn't want to leave her mother, but conversely the Shanghai opportunity was a big promotion for me and would help us both long term financially. We considered me taking the position with her coming out to visit me every few months.

We took an exploratory trip out to Shanghai and after speaking to people in the office there the general consensus was one of two things happen to people who relocate without their spouse or family. They either end up shagging someone/thing else, and/or they are lonely and miserable and end up returning home before the end of the assignment. Obviously some people could sustain the relationship, but the consensus among the expats was that the majority ended up sleeping around or buggering off back home. That coupled with some other factors meant I didn't take the offer. In hindsight it was the correct decision for us.

Going on from what BoardinBob says that is true.
If something is missing, then you replace it.

I've managed (struggled) to keep riding/running and doing what I was doing back home.

What I can't replace, I find something knew to do.
Coursera has become a friend of mine.

Those who choose, and it is a choice, not to be faithful, well. It's their choice at the end of the day.

When going to a new country, there is so much more to do, than bars and girls.

Just don't follow the sheep.

From the first post "leaving the wife at home", "no sex for 2 years"?
Then goes on to make comments along the lines of I'll just get locals, then his wife thinks this is hilarious.

Don't worry about your wife, she'll be fine... Indulging in her own fantasies with your mates.

The OP is actually 55 and lives with his mother. He has never had a woman in his life

Is it 1970 again? When did women become possessions? You buying or selling?

If your wife is with you in Thailand why can't she be with you in the maldives? At least for some of the time?

If the OP said the same about ****stan in the topic- would it also be ok?

Is casual racism ok against the far east even as a teenage-troll?

I'm not a teenager, and I don't think it's racist, if you saw one of these people and some one asked you to describe them in 2 words, and you said small and brown, in what way is that racist, maybe you need to lighten up

I live and work in [s]Asia[/s] the world, and I know where you are coming from.
Temptation does come up, especially after a few beers.
But just get your head around it, think about the consequences, and you'll go back into the bar, and get whiskey and then sozzle out.

No I see it as racist in the context and the derogatory-intent.

So if you asked to describe someone from ****stan or India? My point is you would chose your words carefully wouldn't you.

[i]No I see it as racist in the context and the derogatory-intent.[/i]

I think you're confusing racism with political incorrectness. What the OP said isn't racist.

He's got the hits for those Thai girls so its not a derogatory comment.

No I would just say what I saw, brown with black hair, do you find that description, accurate or offensive?

For a start- stereotyping and an attempt at belittling/degrading if you want to go that way. Hes got the hits for those Thai girls? Many men have 'the hits' doesn't mean they've got any sort of respect for a female/the girl.

OP- do you have auto-remember/etc on your pc? Just saying mind..

No if just rather stick with the facts that you reported him on, brown and little, why also if you want to go of topic report some one and then say sorry to them?

Sorry? Do you see the context of what I just said.

This isn't racist at all is it?
Have sex with little brown Asian things.

I'm out. Keep your casual racism. Why do folk think its alright as long as you are laughing about it/cracking a joke at the sametime in a derogative way? What will you reply next 'no no its ok to do as we crack jokes about our own colour too you know'.

I didn't say it was alright, I said it isn't racism. It may be degrading, derogatory, etc but not casual racism. It's not the language you or I would use but it's still not racist.

Why is it racist hora?

It's racist if it is degrading or derogatory with reference to a specific racial group.

i.e. just like the comment in question

...does it need to be spelled out any more clearly?

But it [i]is[/i] discussing a particular country and stereotype though isn't it?

Yes bizarre thread indeed.
