I am not actually against it i feel that a home should not be bought to make you feel good, to ensure the missus does not leave, or any other reason other then as an investment which benifits her and you later, or because u love the old girl and want to buy it for her, for her not to make you feel good. I agree. But you have to remember that many of these young girls are not with their partner because they find them attractive, and all things being equal would not have chosen them given a choice. Most are with them as it provides them and to some extent their families a level of security which they otherwise would never had. (and provides the bloke a decent ride which he would never of got elsewhere) In that type of relationship where if the bloke looks at it with a clear head, he must realize that this type of thing will crop up, and i cannot blame the ladies for trying to get as much security as possible for them, their families and all their futures. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether that was because she disliked me as much as I dislike her I'll never know. I only offered because she wasn't much longer for that reincarnation, and it would have been better all round if my wife hadn't needed to go look after her in the village all the time. As for the OP, I have to agree with the poster that said "stupidity". Funny how sons in law are not known for building MILs houses back where ever they came from.

Her mom sold her to me. If it hadn't been me, it would have been some other guy she didn't know (Thai or foreigner, they only needed the purchase price). If my wife had been given a free choice, she would have married the local drug dealer, currently serving 25 years in jail. When he gets out in 5-10 years, she can jump ship with my best wishes, if she so wants. Choosing your own partner is a current western fad, the rest of the world doesn't allow it, and from the western divorce rate, it doesn't appear to be a good idea.

Because I can. They have never asked a thing from me. They also returned sin sot money. Trying to live at their age with no water pressure and a bucket is not on. It's all under the heading of family. There is absolutely nothing wrong with making life a bit more comfortable for the rellies. Building houses for them does not come in that category. I rewired two of the rellies houses and put a shower heater in the bathroom, but that was no biggie financially wise and gave me something to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had an old refrigerator and if you opened the door to far, the top hinge pin would come out and the door would fall off. One Saturday, I was at Tesco and they were having a weekend appliance sell. I bought a Panasonic refrigerator and arranged delivery for the following Monday. Well Sunday afternoon, the MIL called my wife and was excited and in tears because Tesco had just delivered it. Then one time when we went to visit, the FIL was trying to make 1 good fan from parts from a second. So the next week I bought a Sharp floor fan and took it to her. I couldn't understand much of what she was saying but her smile I'll never forget. Last Summer, I bought a 32" Sharp TV to replace the 20" she had. I took it to her home set it up and left, while she was visiting a neighbor. Didn't need to see her face to know she would be happy and thankful. Hmmmm, my ex family got 4 fridges out of me, 3 fans, 2 shower heaters, AC, a flat screen tv and a dvd player. Not only did they not smile in happiness and gratitude at their good fortune, they threw me out of the house at the first opportunity, and never let me go back to get my stuff. Some people are sunshine, and some are robbing scumbags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaibeachlovers Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Having thought about it a bit, I'd say the motive for some farangs buying the family houses and stuff is because they think it will earn them brownie points and some gratitude. Unfortunately for many, their Thais are probably like my ex family and don't possess a gratitude gene. I can only imagine how many farangs have stood in shock and horror mumbling about how they bought the once beloved all that stuff, so why is she kicking them out; why are they not grateful? IMO it's precisely because the farang bought all that stuff, and they don't need to keep some sucker they didn't even like much around any longer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't agree, Did all the same stuff for my inlaws back in the UK, after 30 years, I was just something to be scraped off their shoes. There is absolutely no point in being nice to a girls parents, just because you enjoy shagging her. Their feeling for you will be ZERO when their daughter wants rid. I don't even attempt to communicate with any of my wife's relatives, just put my headphones on or go out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My western partner's hideous step mother made no secret of her dislike for me even at the start. Have to say her father and mother were OK, though her mother moved to Australia as soon as we moved in together ( so much for motherly love ), and her Brit stepfather was brilliant, despite being a tosser when he got drunk. Funny thing, life. I had a few girlfriends where I liked their parents or flatmates more than them, in the end. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildewillie89 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 MIL built an outdoor kitchen and storage area where we live. If she had the means to spend money like it was nothing to build unnecessary houses then I have no doubt she would. She already has everything she needs so no expectations from me (other than keeping her grandchildren healthy). Although, she really appreciates getting flowers on her birthday. Probably many reasons people do it. Whether brownie points, relationship based on finances, no backbone to say no or purely it just coming down to a sense of family. Some families will help each other out more than others. When my mother and father divorced, her family (other than two cousins) were too scared to even bring up the subject so just completely ignored my siblings and I. After about 6 months they realised what they did was wrong and tried to reach out. I am not all that emotional, but I certainly feel more of a sense of family with my step-mother/family and mother-in-law/family than my real mother/family. Maybe others are the same so will do it for those reasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some wise person once said to me, "Love and hate are two sides of the same coin, once you have loved someone, the coin will be eventually be flipped" If you'd shagged them, you would have hated them too. Well, I wasn't going to shag their fathers or male flatmates, but that's probably irrelevant. When I was a young fella full of testosterone the pill didn't exist and nice girls didn't. Anyway, having to get married ( as was the cause of many marriages back then ) wasn't in my life plan, so I didn't. Having seen some of them later on in life I was really happy that I hadn't. However, love and hate being same side etc is absolutely true. I think the greater the love the greater the hate when it all goes wrong. Been there, got the T shirt. Incidentally, I found out along the way, that the best shag is the one the GF gives before dumping one. In the end, I found that not having a GF/ partner/ wife works better for me, and of course LOS is the best place not to have a GF/ partner/ wife, but to learn that lesson I unfortunately had to have a GF, partner and wife. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course there is something called normal in relation to people and humans. That does not create any kind of psychological problems that some unnamed people seem to be dealing with. There are a lot of normal things that regards everyone in society, but unfortunately you seem to missed them. I just end it there. Guess it´s enough.
