My wife and I are currently going through the process now. The ONLY 2 ways for her to live in the states for 5+ years is via green card and gaining US citizenship which requires a green card first. The people at the SSA office here told me that she can only claim my benefits for the rest of her life if she remains living in the US with a valid green card OR becomes a citizen and returns to the states every year. ALL time spent here on a tourist visa does NOT count towards the 5 years. It took us 1 year (with the help of a lawyer) to get her green card. (people have done it all on their own but 1 misstep and you start all over again) It also makes a difference on the forms filed whether you and she are in the states or in Thailand so research it well. (we found out we were doing it wrong which is why we brought in a lawyer) If you're going to do it here bring 100x the proof of marriage that you normally need at Thai immigration including pictures from your 1st date to last night's supper. Have 5-10 friends/family with firsthand knowledge of your relationship write support letters for you as well. I for 1, will never complain about "That 1 more form" Thai immigration asks for when we are done and finally move back home. Good Luck

OP - keep an eye on this and be ready to run out and buy when it dips. https://ycharts.com/indicators/gold_price_in_thai_baht

another thought would be to get a new PS5 tower. They are generally built better than standard PC towers and can do all the same things. You can order them with Linux OS installed. They also come with the best internal workings as they're designed to be used for high speed graphics. Just a thought.

Bought mine on Lazada - arrived with no extra charges and fully loaded with requested software in English.

Some of you may (or may not) remember, back around 2001/2002 there used to be a really nice '63/'64 black Corvette parked on the side of the road for sale heading from Pattaya to Jomtien about 1/2 way down the hill. When I lived in Hua Hin I used to see King Rama 9 enjoying an outing driving his '70 Camero along the beach road south to Pran Buri and back under heavy army escort. It would seem that classics have always been allowed - maybe the new government is just looking to increase the pocket money.

If he was married to the lady he was slapping around then don't be too sad for him as he most likely no longer has a condo or savings anymore.

By all means, enlighten those of us whom are obviously below your level of expertise in the lives of middle-class Thai women.

You can't Bob. Let's face it, you'll always and forever be known as the foreigner that was groped by the mailman while trying to bang his wife's' friends. You're a legend, settle in and enjoy the role you studly guy you.

Again, reading things into the post with a preconceived notion - no where did I say groping is fine - what I DID say is the story is all one-sided so far yet the "Hang-'em High" squad is out in full force. IF this whole story had occurred in Pattaya it would be viewed differently but Pattaya doesn't have the market cornered on false accusations by Thai females to scam foreign males, by foreign males misbehaving, by prostitution that (doesn't exist in Thailand), by ladyboy gangs, etc. It's just more famous for it.

There's a new product out in the states that looks like an over-sized mascara for men to use on the head and facial hair. Part of the woke generation I guess. I think my natural wisps of grey look just fine and dandy.

One's illegal and one's admitting to your mistake and correcting it like a man. Tough enough choice that you had to even ask?

would you please post a list of the places where this would be considered normal. I'd like to book a groping tour.

Sure are a lot of you on here suddenly believing in the innocence and purity of 2 Thai women out on the prowl on Khoa San Rd at night. I get it that most of this happens in Pattaya but nobody goes to Khoa San Rd late in the evening/night for the food. Why are there NO pictures to back-up the claims of not drinking and not dressed provocatively? Yet these were 2 stringently made points by the 2 in the original police report. Also, according to the twitter post, her English is better than many on here.

try and get a job at a language school that offers both English and Japanese - you work teaching one and get the Non-B visa and study the other during your time off. Try the Thai-Japanese Center in BKK

try looking here: https://www.norge.no/en/life_situation/divorce and here: https://www.skatteetaten.no/en/person/national-registry/marriage-and-cohabitation/separation-and-divorce/are-you-separating-or-divorcing/

there's still no proof of the groping - police are correct in wanting to check independent CCTV footage before making the same assumption.

Get the job and the Non-B that goes with it (you can always quit later) or find your master's course abroad and leave. Why look for problems?

and her twitter post: "Yall know him? 21:00 At khaosan road these 2 guys came up to my friend & one of them groped her butt. Instead of being guilty he was giggling and She then proceed to give him a couple punches. The other bald guy was trying stop me from filming, they walked away" ! story for the police and 1 story for the "Outraged Netizens" Seems there was an assault, just not the 1 reported.

All you need is a smart tv, REALLY good internet (at least 500mg down speed) an HDMI cable and a good CPU. Use the smart tv to search for available streaming services and the CPU to search for good tv sites (like referenced above) and you can watch anything you like for not much money (mostly the internet and original outlay for the tv and cpu). You can even use this setup to make free video calls home. AND, if the tv supports picture in picture, you can video call your friends back home while watching your sports. Only other things you'd need are a GREAT recliner and a fridge full of beer. ps. wireless mouse and keyboard so you can search from the recliner.

a mouse with no balls gets tired quickly on the wheel.

Quite a few gun shots into the crowd would have netted better results - sick in the head - roll the army in and send them to reeducation camps like they did the leaders of the red/yellow riots.

Some of you touched on the (probable) reason for expanded searches for sex: Covid. The lock down blocked most access to Mia Nois, Giks and gfs and left everyone stranded at home with the old wifey and the kids. At the beginning time frame (Nov '22) we were still in lock down without a foreseeable end in sight and coordinating live video chat with open bathroom times wasn't as easy as having said "side women" making and posting videos for their guys. Why do you think there was such a notable run on toilet paper sales above all else? You didn't really think being locked down was causing a massive increase in the need to poop did you? I'd bet a rerun of the same study from Dec '23 to Dec '24 would show a slowing trend in searching those same sites.

?!?!?! Really?!?! GEEZ, and I thought I was young groping my first boobie at 12

I blame the security guard. If he had told them "No, you can't sit here. It's private property." then the whole thing would have never happened.

No, that's at a family reunion.
