Am I friendly? Am I not friendly? The TOI TU HOC English Club told me that I am not friendly. They have never met me before. However, they are assuming things about me. A similar thing happened yesterday with the Saigon American English Club.
The Drink&Talk English Speaking Club does not seem to be interested in having native English speakers. It seems that I was also not welcomed at the Grace Cafe Saigon or even the Master's Cup Coffee House, Saigon, Vietnam.
Since 2012, while I've been in Vietnam, students ask me if they can practice English with me. Sometimes, they come and sometimes they don't.
People tell me they want to be my friend. They tell me that I am a good teacher. They tell me that they want to see me again. They tell me that they will help me find students, housing, things, friends, girlfriends, other things, work.
Later, they disappear. Sometimes, I find them and ask them what happened, and they tell me, in one way or another, that they actually do not like me. They do not want to see me ever again.
If you do not like me, then why did you say that you like me? That is called lying. Why did you say that you want to see me again if you do not want to see me again?
A Vietnamese girl borrowed 4.000.000 VND from me. That was back in June 2013. I am not sure if she will ever pay me back. I thought she was my friend. She said she was coming to Saigon. She lives in Hanoi. I knew her. I trust her. She said she lost her wallet. Another girl stole another 4.000.000 VND from me. The Tan Van Foreign Language School, in the Go Vap District, stole 60.000.000 VND from me. The New Star Language Center, in Bac Ninh, Vietnam, stole over 20.000.000 VND from me. This list goes on and on. Joey Arnold.
The moral of the story is that you should be more honest.
The truth will come out eventually.
If you lie to me, I will seek to reveal just that.
I may just find the truth someday.
No sense to delay it.
