  1. Sounds like a schizophrenic episode, especially with the paranoia and waxing and waning lucidity.

    Happened to a woman at my old university at the end of the semester. Within a few days she was seriously delusional and we had to work with the administration to keep her under a close watch and have her family come and fetch her.

    Traveling overseas is probably the worst place for an episode. Little money, lots of strangers, and not the best support for mental health issues.

    Hope the family tracks him down ASAP.

  2. Where were these whinging, bleating prats during the rice corruption?

    I assume you are from a country whose people fought hard for their democracy over many decades and yet you refer to those of the same ilk aka 'democracy activists' 'whinging bleating orats' (oh, 'prat, you must be English and have never heard of the Tolpuddle Martyrs and their like?).

    You came to this country expecting to be feted by little smiling peasants catering to your every whim (like a couple of others on here) and are distressed at witnessing the nascent stirrings of the 'peasants'' revolt. You should be ashamed.

    Think he's talking about the the anti-corruption people on this forum coming out of the woodwork.

  3. Did no one else try alcohol from their parents when they were young? I'd see my parents drinking wine or beer and ask them for some. They'd let me try and I'd think it's disgusting and not want anymore.

    Unless they're force feeding it to the kid which it doesn't seem from the photo then this is a big drama over nothing.

    Remember in Thailand there is a big anti alcohol movement which will jump at anything to justify even more draconian laws and restrictions.

  4. What's needed in situations like this is a common friend who can talk with her and find out what's on her mind and then speak with you about it then get back to her.

    Keep an open mind about it and be prepared to accept that she might have perceived you doing something wrong beyond just asking her why she is in a bad mood.

    As for divorce in Thailand there is generally no alimony or division of assets like in the West.

  5. terrible, I wonder what a 1 on 1 situation would of resulted in.? ( Well never going to happen anyway )

    Street fights don't follow boxing rules. Same is true in the West - if you fight one guy in a group you can bet his buddies are going to come rushing in, usually with sucker punches. And if you gain the upper hand you could be stabbed.

  6. I paid 1m baht sinsod which was returned. Plus some gold which wasn't. Between wealthy families Thai men can pay far, far more- a friend of mine (Thai) dropped 9 million baht sinsod plus a massive pile of gold.

    It's not so much the amount but also the effort you are putting forth to do it. Borrowing from your GF is an option but she likely would want to keep it a secret from everyone.

    Edit- Forgot to mention that returning the money was something my wife had discussed with her mother. Not all families are that open so otherwise I would ask a senior Thai friend to help.
