His interview in Sudsapda magazine:

What type of girls do you like?
“I like a girl with a good personality more so than looks. I think a woman with a certain charm is more interesting. I like girls who are pretty like Nicole Kidman. I like it if her eyes are alluring. When you look into them, it looks impressive.’

What is the first thing you see when you look at a woman?
“Her eyes, because you can see her through them. I like girls with keen eyes; however, from what I observed woman with keen eyes tend to be bad (laughs).”

What do you think is the sexist thing about a woman?
“I like when I look at woman and she looks back at me, there is a certain hook, her eyes has the ability to tell you what she is thinking. As for her outer appearance, I like woman with big hips, it’s very sexy.”

What is your favorite courting technique?
“I don’t have time to court anyone. Usually I use my eyes to express my intentions. If I see a woman that I like, I would keep looking at her until she looks at me back.

This one time I walked pass this girl I really at Khon Kaen but I was too afraid to ask for her number. I begged my friend who is younger than me to do it, but he was too scared. So I had to do it myself. At that time, this girl was sitting with another guy; however this guy didn’t appear to be a full man (meaning he is g*y), so I thought he couldn’t possibly be her boyfriend. I went up to talk to her and learned that she was much older than me. I build up the courage to a ask her:“can I get your number”. She looked at the guy beside her. She then replied, “do you want my number or my boyfriend’s number.” I quickly apologize and walked away because I feared an altercation between us (laughs).”

Your viewpoint on Love?
“My viewpoint on love is not what you say, it’s your action. You don’t need to say you are thinking of that person. When you think of the person you love, just call them. This is another way of expressing your love.
When I like someone, I take my time, I want to study her, I want to know about personality and whether we are compatible or whether her personality is the same as the first time we met. I like a girl I can easily talk to, I want to talk to her about everything. I also like my independence, she must understand that I can’t spend all my time with her.”

Girls you don’t like.
“Drunk girls and when they vomit. I was at a restaurant once with friends and saw a girl I like. She came over and we talked. That day she had just gotten into a fight with her friends. For a period we were just talking then she looked my way and then vomited all over my shirt. I thought to myself why did she vomited on me? Laughs.”

Your best relationship.
“My freshman year in school, I dated this one girl, she was a little chubby but her personality was very adorable. When I was dating her, someone said, “is this the best you can do?”. At that point, I realize that it’s not who we date, it is whether we can get along with that person. She was the one beside me and the person I felt most comfortable with. I was able to talk to her about everything.”–okay, this kid just scored major brownie points from me!!!

Your most romantic night?
“During Valentine’s Day this one year, I went to dinner with a girl at a resturant with an amazing atmosphere. I brought her a ring as a present. I didn’t give it to her right away, it was a surprise. When she went to the bathroom, I hid the ring under her rice. She came back, ate her rice and discovered the ring. It was the best night, the best atmosphere. To see her smile shyly, it felt great (Smiles).”
