What  a larf-they are chronically obese and miserably educated too boot,

 

Go and micturate on your own backyard.I dare you.

 

5 stars to this brave woman.

"miserably educated too boot"? At least the girls I knew in Australia could mostly spell. Of course, my background was completely different to yours. I can honestly say I've never even met a chronically obese ice whore. For you, evidently, they're irritatingly ubiquitous. I think it sounds interesting.

She forgot to complain about the weather... which is terrible in Germany.

 

Besides that, I think she is right. Farang-Land basically sucks! 

[Howiehotspur]

I dunno , my missus loves it so much that when I decided to retire to the land of smiles , she said she’s not going back (UK ??) . She’s been there 13 years now , ( 18 years together ) and I’ve now been retired out here for 3years . We talk every other day , FaceTime etc .. but she has no interest in coming back , even says if she can ,she’ll continue to work though her 60’s if possible .. likes working , earning , sending cash home etc .. stays with another thai lady now , rents a room .

Oh you do do you, so you are always in attendance when the Brits and Germans silently choose their Thai partners? Do you also find them particularly quiet when choosing partners of non Thai nationality?

Should I tell you the story of a bkk lawyer who gave up that life so she can be a waitress in California...she has opted  to stay in usa over 20 years now b/c her life is a higher quality of living, benefits, higher equality and most importantly a voice with a vote...she has a life with opportunity...

 

sorry but that isaan girl is uneducated which brings a high correlation of ignorance...she has a warp and distorted view of the world outside of thailand...for some, it's better for them never to leave the rice fields b/c the lack of desire and skill to better position themselves and their offspring moving forward...she has no desire to grow and advance as a person....

 

this story rings of xenophobia by the press and media b/c a Thai or any third world product with initiative and drive rarely returns home to live....

 

 

So she 'bettered herself' working at McDonalds. Good luck is all I can say.

Ex; 50kg when met, 60kg+ now.

 

Current; 55kg when met, 48kg now.

 

The secret?

 

Wife: Would you still say "I Love You" if I was fat?

 

Me: Yes. On a postcard...

As near as I can determine my income is three times what many Thai professional people earn. More than the average MD or airline pilot, about on par with a senior retail manager. About four times what my GF earns as an assistant manager in one of the largest retail establishments in Bangkok, yet she says it is not enough for her to retire and two of us to live on. For some reason she thinks two people living together is more expensive than two people maintaining separate households.
Many Thais seem to have a real problem with mathematics and economics. Really lovely woman in all other respects.

Let's have a special day when no one posts negative things about Thailand or it's people (or indeed other posters).

 

I suggest April 1st. 2018 as the first day for this annual event.

 

Anyone want to suggest a name for this day?

Yeh..let's call it "Thai Fools Day"

[bkk6060]

This is 100% the guys fault.

Falang need to look in the mirror they create these situations because of their stupidity.

[draks]

So she obviously married for love, and not what she can get out of him. She will leave him that's for sure.

Really?

Think outside the box.

The Falang is the idiot, not her. 

Too many guys blaming these girls when they are the real problem creating these situations.

It is a fact that Thai Ladies can seldom adapt in Farangland. I recently read in a survey from Switzerland  (OK, maybe not representative) that after 10 years of marriage with a Thai Lady 70 %  are getting divorced. Now what was interesting,  80 %  having a Filipina were still married. What does that mean ? Make your own conclusion.  Maybe the best thing would be not getting married at all.

Seems to me the young lady simply struck reality.  Everything she said is true - she probably wasn't warned beforehand and is experiencing a little culture shock.  I find things back home way too expensive sometimes. When home my house cleaner costs me $25 per hour cash, otherwise I do it myself because that is how it is in our culture.  Thai culture is, as many have stated, inclusive of almost the whole community, especially family.  Finding yourself alone with your husband, probably much older, is also daunting, she obviously expected it to be much different. 

My wife is University educated, never mixed with Farangs prior to our marriage, owned her own house, car and motorcycle - she treats me like a king and does all her own housework, expects enough to cover the costs and a few luxuries, and gives her aged mother 1,000 Bht per month.  I have absolutely no complaints.

Life here is not much different to back home if you take out the culture.  The women expect the same things everywhere, some relationships last while others fail.  Same here in Thailand - I have just visited a farmer who's wife is a retired school teacher, they have been together all their lives.  Down our street are several women who have been abandoned for a younger lady - no different back home where up to 30 to 40 % of people end up divorced and lose almost everything.

Judging by the usual comments from the usual group of negative posters it would seem that they have rarely experienced success.  Many of the characters I have met over time here have few social skills, are way overweight, have barely enough income to get by and are void of general knowledge - I repeat, many - not all.  I have met some fantastic people from various countries, people who have decided that they still have life in them yet.   I admire them for their boldness, their acceptance of Thai people and their culture, and their willingness to accept that they are visitors in a foreign land.
