    A study was done in America a number of years ago. They interviewed

    and studied people who had been married for 50 years or more.

    The general concept was that most marriages only last a few

    years, so what was it about these couples that allowed them to be

    together so long. The findings were interesting. The couples had

    a lot in common. In fact the higher the commonality, the longer the

    marriage. So similar socio-economic background, similar education,

    similar religion etc. Which makes perfect sense. If you have a master's

    degree, grew up in a rich white neighborhood, and make mountains

    of money, your marriage to somebody from the hood will probably not

    work out.

    So all these farangs come to Thailand and marry local girls. They do

    not have a SINGLE thing in common. Not religion, not education,

    not language, NOTHING. Then later on they wonder why the marriage

    did not work out, and the Thai girl just wanted money.....cheesy.gif

     

    I agree to a certain extent but I can see from your poorly angled aspect that you hang in the same circles as the group of men you cast aspersions on. Either you have no clue to how find educated people in Thailand or just too damn lazy to try. Either way, there is a fallacy in your logic as you clearly base it on your own limited experience. I guess it is as they say, the truth is in the eye of the beholder.

    I casted aspersions upon no one, I simply brought up a study in which couples

    were married a long time ,and what were the factors that played a part. If you took

    offense to that , it must have struck a bit close to home. Unless you are a part

    of the seemingly overwhelming majority of men who post on TV that married

    a hi-so Chinese Thai girl who parents are wealthy and powerful, who has

    relatives who are high ranking policemen, and who said sin sod was not needed

    upon your marriage. Then I guess you would have the financial part covered,

    but no other cultural factors. Do you speak perfect Thai ? Are you a Buddhist ?

    Do you send money to your aging parents ??

     

    Well, as I said in the eye of the beholder. It´s about the circles you hang out in as well.

    Not Sino-Thai, but from the south, dentist, well educated and well travelled and though she speaks English fluently and I speak good enough Thai to manage myself, of course there are cultural differences that we have to work through. And I didn´t need to pay sin sod either.

    Does that shatter your belief or do you need verifiable proof to see that there are individuals in Thailand with their own mindset that set their own goals instead of following the main stream?

  3. Is there a possibility to make a woman pregnant or get any STD, HIV if condom is used. The rubber was perfectly fine when it is removed after the activity was done. Just a bit curious and worried. Thanks for any help rendered.
