You know you're living with a Thai when ... She says she doesn't care for Falang food but, whenever I make an English breakfast or Sunday roast for one, she sets two places at the table (and never refuses the last Yorkshire pudding).

Of course - could be just my missus.

I showed my wife how to cook chips, now she cooks them better and tastier than I did.

You know you are living with a thai...when...she puts the butter and strawberry jam on a slice of bread...then puts it in the toaster..!!...(I kidd you not!!!)

Just thought of a few more that (I hope) others can relate to:

 

..... your personal health and fitness levels and your performance in the sack are topics for open discussion with her Mother, and by implication, the entire extended family and their friends

 

..... male members of the extended family give you relationship advice, when the female members are not looking

 

..... all personal, romantic gifts are posted on Facebook within 15 seconds of receipt

 

..... when eating out, if you try to eat the food before it has been photographed - you'll get your hand slapped

Sounds like she's (re)invented pop tarts.

 

Just needs some slight modification.

Don't know about living with a Thai, but do know now that 'you are living in Thailand when' - you start following Thai Visa's ridiculous forums really seriously.

When MiL walks around the house topless, and she's younger than you.

Lets not get excited as it would depend on how old you are, and how many bin lids she had produced

[jacko45k]

When you are flat on your face on the front garden because you fell over a pile of shoes.

When you can't find your hammer because it has been left by the cooker.

The spray nozzle is off your hosepipe because she still hasn't grasped the idea you pull the pipe not the nozzle.

There's no toilet paper again.

My favorite all-time comment on ThaiVisa with apologies as I don't remember who posted it:

 

He(to Thai Wife/GF) You look lovely tonight, dear.
She: Oh Yeah? Well what about LAST night???

 

 

[poanoi]

the woman i have been living with has been so dramatically different so the only thing

they had in common was the fake dismissal of falang food, cause when it comes to it,

they love it. except for the caviar strangely enough

Life is tricky....in Europe the cuties know about the extraction fan but barely can cook an egg...and over there, lucky you, you got a cutie to cook tasty penangs for you but will not get HIGH on extract ......still I'd rather have a gal who will not extract then one who cannot cook !!...Enjoy...

The kitchen is outside in many Thai households. Which actually makes sense if you think about it.

Sex is either the number between 5 and 7 or what coal used to come in. It's been a while for me too so not positive which.

You're from New Zealand, right?

When you realize it's been a year or more you haven't fight or argue with your wife about problems that don't exist... 

Very big change comparing with our farang ladies (or at least the 2 I married and -thanks god ! - i divorced)

When your main house door is a glass swivel door and every time someone walks in or out,

You yell out "Handle"

... When the floor is squeaky clean, but there are cobwebs hanging from the ceiling

Spider webs catch lots of mossies that would otherwise be sucking our blood. I never removed cobwebs, as they are a good thing.

She probably wants to go to a posher restaurant as the first one didn't give her enough "face".

OR

a friend told her they do that dish better or different and she wants to try it.

She's freezing under the duvet in bed whilst you are sweating like a prized porker on top of the bed.

I will not say any bad word about cobwebs, they are a bit like tattoos, i like them , but not in my courtyard

It was a grilled pulled-pork sandwich from Dukes.  Really delicious, especially when nice and warm!  Ok, so you can tell when you're living with a farang when he warms up his grilled sandwich that he bought from a restaurant that caters to farangs.  

Now, lol, back to living with Thais...............

 

I find that heating the Cuban sandwiches from Duke's in an oven does a better job than the microwave... Glad to know I'm not the only farang that plans ahead for their gastronomical needs... Now off to Butter is Better for breakfast!!!

Worst yet are trolling hall monitors criticizing what other people choose to do with their time.

[KMartinHandyman]

It’s been said before but for me it’s unplugging every device and turning of every power strip and fan switch switch all day, not only at night. Besides inconvenient and annoying we’re plain wearing them out! I’m boxed in and can’t win when she defends it by saying it’s to save on the power bill or for safety.
