Mother still thinks I’m coordinating at an international school. I send her the occasional café selfie. This side thing found me, covers the bills, and keeps life interesting. No big plans to stop anytime soon. I miss teaching tho.

I came to Jakarta to teach English. Just your average bule. A 6 or 7 on a good day, hairy with dad bod setting in, no gym bro vibes. I brought snacks to class, smiled a lot, and made okay money encouraging students to yap in English. 🧵

The women who reach out are business owners, expat wives, married ladies needing an escape and they don’t care that I’m not some chiseled model. They like the easy, no drama company. Some fly me to Bali for a weekend. others just want a few hours of attention.

My blood was boiling, but didn't want to have a crazy loud girl show in front of neighbors and just paid her the 500 more and as soon as her grab left, I blocked her. Is there anything I can do to screw her up or shall I just let it go?

So few nights ago I matched with a girl on dating app and it was kinda late. We lived nearby and she askes if we could meet and watch a movie maybe as we both had insomnia.

She started raising her voice and said would make a scene if I hadn't paid her. Her character totally changed. I didn't want drama in front of neighbors, so just transfered it and then she was like oh 500 more for admin fee.

Should I be worried now or what? We all know he is gay and isn't just admiting it. And as gay as he looks, he has a wife and kids.

I accidentally sent a 🍆 pic to my boss. As soon as I realized, deleted it from chat. He replied asking what it was I'd unsent. Said sorry and told him it was a mistake. He replied "a BIG mistake wkwkwk" .

Ended up sitting on a tiny plastic stool… inside his house. With his entire family staring at me, smiling.

Turns out I agreed to join them for dinner.

Great people. Amazing food. Still no idea what happened.

I just wanted takeaway.

Been living in Surabaya for a year now. Bahasa? Still a work in progress.

Yesterday, I heard the tahu tek cart and ran out like a man possessed. Ordered confidently, then the guy asked something mixed with Jawanese that I didn’t catch. I panicked and said, “Iya, pak.”

Ten minutes later he came back to my house, knocked on the door and asked me to join him. I had NO clue what was going on and I was bored, so yea, went with the flow...

[expats_confessions_indonesia @ExpatsIndonesia]

I am confused but he is the sweetest and most carying guy I have ever had and still don't want to lose him.

[expats_confessions_indonesia @ExpatsIndonesia]

My bf came from Dubai to Indonesia to visit me. One day when he was sleeping, I was checking his phone when I saw his whatsapp messages and realized that he was texting with a guy in arabic but the texts were full or heart and kiss emojis and few selfies they exchanged.

next thing he sent me a long text saying I didn't have to worry and he loved me and also few hundred dollars into my bank account asking me to buy anything I want and meet him for dinner.
