I changed my withdrawal limit before when I needed a lot of cash. After that I set it back to "normal" to prevent misuse. It's done in minutes.

Personally I think we can all learn from other peoples' experience. Obviously we don't have to believe everything everybody tell us or writes in this forum. But I am sure lots of people out there who discover this forum maybe a year after they arrived in Thailand think to themselves: I should have read this a year ago...

Hey, you should have known that will happen before you married her. Or at least that is what some marriage experts here want to tell us. How could you not see what will happen in the future? It must be your fault. ????

Who are you talking about? Certainly not me. I don't have children and my condo is in my name (only). Why would I even think about buying a worthless piece of land (which can't be legally in my name)?

That is why guys have a pay bar fines when they take out the dancers.

Yeah, all farangs are the same in Thailand. That obviously makes sense. I guess I also know you. You are a farang living in Thailand so you must be like all the others. Yeah, sure.

You know what women are called who are paid for their company...

Thanks for telling us about your worldview. You write: "I will absolutely guarantee" You don't know me and you don't know my gf but you will "absolutely guarantee"... It is pointless to argue with people who just know they know everything. Maybe start again with the assumption that you don't know anything.

The only surprising fact from this article is the word "almost". Lithium batteries can be very dangerous. And when they burn they burn. And water only makes it worse.

So, basically held hostage. You'd probably give her nothing and be bitter if she left too. What a cad. So many like this. If people want to marry that is obviously up to them. But I find it sad that it seem many of those "I married" guys think that everybody who does not marry must be a bad guy. Let me tell you: It is possible to be happy with a girlfriend for many years, love each other, support each other and not be married.

It seems some people prefer to see the world like they want to see it and not like it is. Personally I try to see how it is - even if I don't like it. At least then I can learn from other peoples' mistakes.

What do you mean with "some"? I think the only one under 30 is the blond cross-eyed cashier.

From the K Plus App. These limits can be changed by the user and it changes instantaneously.

So you suggest that I should take drugs to cloud my mind so that I don't see reality. Yeah, that's the kind of sophisticated advice I was waiting for.

And they lived happily ever after. Sure, all is fine. But have you ever heard the stories that he paid for the property and it was in her name and then she told him to f@$ off? It seems in Thailand that happens often enough. If guys want to give millions in cash or property to their gf or wife then that is fine. But those guys should realize that then it's the money or property of their wife. They, the guys, don't own it.

Like I mentioned above, the thread came to my mind when I read the other thread what advice people would give their 18yo self. I could look up all the posts but here is a summary: don't marry don't marry don't marry don't marry don't marry and the same many more times.

In many civilized countries the guy has to pay for his own child. And it does not matter if he is married or not. And if the guy doesn't care then he can be an a$%@# even if he was/is married. My personal opinion is that if I am the father of a child then I am, together with the mother, responsible for that child. I don't need a contract to tell me I am responsible.

Good news for me. My contractor agreed to 1 year warranty - after his initial quote was 6 months. And I have a clause in the contract that money will be deducted if he is late. So far it looks good... And yes, I know, things can go wrong. I will address them when they actually happen and don't ruin my day now with thinking about what can go wrong.

I am sure gamma something, I forgot the name, is really upset right now. Gamma tries since month to get our attention by posting every day long stories. And basically nobody wants to entertain him. And then comes Bob, 7 pages in one day...

I still follow what happened in the last hours. But I imagine for a minute Bob sitting with his pink G-string girl and sipping Champaign for breakfast. And at the same time he is watching this thread, which he pretends he wants to have closed, and he is replying to every comment. That pink G-string model must be really exiting if comments from bored farangs on the internet are even more exiting.

Maybe we should start a poll: How many people have anti virus software on their phones? And how many people ever had a virus on their phone? I bet the answers are: few and few. Don't overcomplicate life.

I just met too many guys who paid a fortune to their former love of their life. Obviously it is impossible to know the whole truth about other people relationships, but as far as I could see the guys were "good guys" and they cared for their wife. In one case from "home" the guy made lots of money. His wife spent all the money and then she found a richer guy. She divorced the guy who I knew and because she had a daughter he had to pay for mother and child for many years. And because she never married her new rich boyfriend she claimed she had no money and need that support. That is just one example. And I learned from that: Don't do it.

Is that realistic when people get older and older? Who really knows if you and your partner will be happy together for the next 50 years? For me something like my gf has an accident and loses a leg (just an example) would be no reason to walk away. But if she would become one of those women who complain all day and night then I would tell her to change that behavior or I will walk away. Lots of things can go wrong in a way that both people understand that they would be happier without being together. There must not be a big problem. Just live goes on.

Imagine there would be a legal reason you could not have married her (just theoretically). Why wouldn't you live with her exactly the way as if you are married? I understand that people have long term relationship. I am in one of those. But IMHO having signed a piece of paper doesn't make that relationship any better. It's the people who care for each other. If we need a contract to do that, or do it better, then maybe the relationship is not so good.

What do you think: Is it only possible to care for a person if you are married? Or is is also possible to be a good guy if you are not married?
