What harm did the legalization of Cannabis do to the Nation ? Did it harm Thailands reputation in the world ? At a time when many countries ( even Germany ) allow the consumption of it , Thailand backtracks . I hope all cannabis shop owners unite and sue the government for their financial loss .

Yeah , you are right , of course ... It is a little more complicated in reality ... We run something that you could call a soi dog sanctuary ... we save starving and /or mistreated dogs on the island and give a caring home to them ... I have 10 I take care for , and so has she ... ( think about it what you want , we do it because we like to do it ... when first arrived in Thailand in 2015 we brought my old dog with me , who ended up poisoned soon after ... I promised to myself to help these suffering creatures no problem , we get a lot of love back from them , I can afford it , want to do something good in life ... When I tell her that I will not give more money to her she asks me how to feed her dogs ... I cannot refuse to pay at all , because the dogs will suffer from not getting food anymore ... But I would like her to participate a little at least ... but that is am different story ... Do not understand me wrong ... we do something that saves la dogs life ( after they poisoned my old dog ) , and we like it . I will set her on a monthly allowance that pays for the dogs again , I did it already ... but she still continues to ask for more ... and more ... I cannot cancel all payments , but what I offer never seems enough ... But that is another story , off topic . Anyway , I expected more questions like : Would you marry her again ...? Well , we had good times and bad times , but after all , I would NOT marry again . That is like a contract that limits you freedom . better avoid if you do not have really serious reasons to marry ... -

No , you got something wrong ... she still loves me , not only for the money , I know that ... checked it out ... But , even she is rich by material means , land , house etc , she seem incapable to even try to make her own money by selling something of what she owns ... most of what I bought for her was meant to be an investment ... to be sold later ... I bought her land that already tripled in value by now , but she makes no effort to sell it ... it's more easy to ask me for money ... I told her to sell something ( her gold ) if she needs money , but she does not even try ... frustrating ... -

The problem is that she does not want to sell anything she owns . Not the land , not the House in polluted Chiang Mai , not the Krugerrands , she wants to keep all , but expects me to pay eternally for what she wants more ... -

He really is . He is living on borrowed time ... had an operation already because of health problem . Lao Khao is the drug that needs to be banned ... but also a part of " normal " life in Isaan . After all , I can give a very short summary to my Narrative : Enjoy life without ever getting married ... ( not from Chat GTP ...) -

When I was young ... on my first trip to Thailand I met a beautiful , tall girl on Koh Tao . She was working as a waitress in a beach restaurant ... the story goes on just the way you imagine ... 3 years later we decided to marry mainly because she was refused a visa to visit me in my european home country . She took me to her village in Isaan to see her parents . Her family lived in a rural village , in a typical thai house . The second floor was the place they slept , downstairs was just the bare ground and a few bamboo mats to sit on . And a mountain of rubbish right in the middle of it . They enjoyed their meals and drinks sitting right next to that ... they invited me to eat with them . They made me eat some funny soup with mushrooms . I do not remember much more , the next morning I woke up upstairs with a headache . I did not like that , and I thought that it would be better not to marry ( into this family ) . So , I told her that . To my surprise , she stayed cool and said that she does not want to lose face in front of her family . She proposed to just go to the local Amphur on the day we were supposed to get married , spend a few hours somewhere near and go back to her family's place just to tell them that we could not marry because of missing papers ... Well , I was in Love and that changed my mind about not getting married . We got married the same day at the Amphur . It is now 25 years that we are married . She came to stay with me in beautiful southern France . Being married , she got her Visa easily . We stayed there in our little house in a natural reserve for about 16 years . My parents died and we decided to go back to Thailand to spend our old age over there ... So far , so good ... I sold everything and we moved to Thailand .I found a nice place to live , had a nice house built here . She never had to work , not here neither in France . I provided everything , I took ' care of her ' . My job . Her father died died while we were in France and some years later her mother in our house in Chiang Mai . We moved to a quiet island in the south , built a nice house and later found an old , abandoned ' Talat ' , a market , open air but covered with a roof . We transformed that into a beautiful big house with 5m high ceilings . Our plan was to rent it out via Airbnb . She said she was gonna move in to design the garden . She did that . And now , some years later she is still living in her " residence ". No Airbnb . I am living alone in the first house with the many dogs I take care for . ( wanted some loyalty in my life ...) Quite happy after all if it were not the eternal requests for money . I gave her a lot , but it is never enough . I bought her land as an investment , she does not want to sell it . Her brothers , all alcoholics , came to ' see ' her . They never worked , nobody would give a job to them anyway . I do not want to pay for them . All high on ' Lao Khao ' they have serious mental and health problems . Not my job to take care for them . Lao Khao is the drug they should make illegal in Thailand , not Cannabis . That stuff causes serious harm . It destroys lives and health . Life is ok for me now , but my wife and me are slowly becoming estranged , she lives in her house a few km away , she comes to se me often and even more often asks for money , even she has a safe box full of golden Krugerrands in Chiang Mai that she inherited from my dead mother ... I never made foreign friends here on the island , the few who live here are all alcoholics . But I am getting old now , my back hurts often , I am no good for work anymore . Never found a good thai gardener or housekeeper ... her brother offered me to do this , but proofed incapable ... I do not want to move or sell , I need to take care of my dogs that all love me ... So , I let the garden just grow wild I guess ... I do not really know why I wrote all this ... I just had to let it out I guess ... Hope you enjoyed reading it ... If you could read until the END ... Thank you .
