maximillian Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 In my case there is a 22 year gap. Right from the start I loved my wife but was somehow cautious until she won the jackpot in the lottery. All of a sudden she was much better off than myself. I expected the worst but after almost eight years she is still with me. Edit: It's a true story, except the jackpot never happened and I'm still sponsoring my sweetheart and she is giving me a good time most of the time.

I certainly haven't and I've been looking for 50 odd years. Hey, David Attenborough has shown that even chimpanzees sell sex, a bit of torn off monkey leg and they'll do anything.

There have been some horrible cases of murder reported in Thailand involving situations like this and of course they make big news. We really don't hear of the 'good'marriages because there is nothing newsworthy about normal situations. I do know this- that most cross cultural marriages end in divorce. It is extremely hard for both parties to adjust to different cultural idiosyncrasies.I am also certain that Thai girls working in a bar are not the best life partners to seek. Don't get me wrong- I understand completely why they work there but long term bar girls pick up all the bad habits of their customers and they experience a cultural change that is hard to overcome. Then you add in the age difference and language/communication problems small issues become exaggerated. After 3 marriages to Thais- 1 has been good ; another pretty good and another horrid- I would not necessarily recommend a cross cultural marriage unless both parties speak excellent Thai/and the girl speaks good English and is willing to learn a third language if English is not native. In addition- a lengthy engagement is necessary to see if there is compatibility. After almost 5 decades in Thailand- I can say for sure that this case is an exception- normally marriages or relationships do not end in murder but there are plenty that end in heartache and despair. RIP to the deceased and may anyone associated with the murder get the harsh justice they deserve. Maybe the French guy had the idea to get rid of the poor guy, but in my opinion these Thai ladies usually know the creme de la' creme' of all sorts of Thai gangster, of course always in need of money. A life in lower northeast isn't worth a lot. There are people who do such a job for 15-25 K. Happened here before with a gun that people could rent with three bullets.

She's going to get just about everything when I cark it, so maybe she's just the patient type? #MeToo And we have children together (DNA tested), but I know I'm paying a reasonable price for a product she's selling. If she met a guy that would pay her more she'd be off, just like that. But she isn't my partner, she's my hired wife.

smotherb Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 2 hours ago, CGW said: I would tend to disagree, have you ever seen a Thai couple truly in love by western standards? Thai men, especially among Thai women are not renowned to for being the greatest catch. Many of the men folk that do arrive here are already traumatized due to western society, the upheaval that bought them to Thailand in the first place etc, they are looking for a partner and indeed are easily fooled. Yes, I have seen Thais in love. However, my post was referring to Thai women in love with farangs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was already on her way on the BTS and I mentioned offhand that my room had no aircon because she said it was hot outside. She cancelled there and then and never spoke to me again. Another girl we were going to go down to the south islands for a trip and she asked me where we would stay. I said I don't care where I stay when I go on a trip because I don't spend much time in the hotel. She suggested a 3700 baht a night place with a jacuzzi. I countered with an 800 baht a night hotel (steep by my standards actually). She cancelled the trip. It's easy to suss out the golddiggers.

mauGR1 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Shame on the murderers, hope they get what they deserve. RIP Mr. De Stefani. Unfortunately , our 'developed" competitive societies have made us so hungry for love and affection, that many of us fall prey of unscrupolous women in Thailand, and other countries. All it needs for them is just smile and open their legs. The solution is simple, never think with the small head.. But it's not that easy sometimes.

Apparently the women very much in general, are wired to take as much advantage as they can from the men in general. ..Read Briffault's law..https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/machiavellians-gulling-the-rubes/201610/briffaults-law-women-rule Edited January 23, 2018 by mauGR1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to those fellows whose vanity, like the vanity of the central character (Verloc) in Conrads novel "The Secret Agent", leads them to believe themselves loved entirely for......."themselves". Do not take it too personally if her love falters and she finds a better deal, it's just "business". How sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
