Do your ears burn when theytalk about you when they think youre not looking?? lol Why should my ears burn, my conscience is clear. I have many Thai friends, with whom I am honest discussing my feelings; including my counterpart in-law. He and I enjoy a very good relationship and he thinks of my son as his. Too bad, you cannot even imagine such a relationship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people choose to live on an honest open relationship where trust and giving is part and parcel of their relationship on a daily basis. They don't need to pay extra to secure a wife in the belief that is gives them some kind of guarantee of acceptance. So quit looking down your nose at those who choose a different path to yourself as if you somehow have some kind of moral high ground, you don't. You chose your way, other choose and believe theirs.

But paid to the parents not the bar, but unlike some bars, the parents wont give you your money back if it all goes wrong. Also, like some bars, the girl gets a share of the barfine. Perhaps that farang attitude explains why after a week the Thai lady thinks it's ok to move on Maybe it takes a little more than a few baht to make a marriage work? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prove your true commitment with a pre-nup!

In my case, had the family demanded money up front, I'd have told my beloved that I was not giving them anything and said that she was welcome to stay with me, as long as she accepted that, but far away from them. They only got anything out of me because I bought a lot of stuff for the house, which I was obviously unable to take, and "borrowed" money for the MIL funeral, which they never repaid.

poanoi Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 quitchyabitchin, this is entirely up to the punter, mamasan, and prostitute to barter about, each to his own, no bargain has any bearing for the next barter with entirely new players. just because a hooker once got paid 10k for a short time doesnt mean that is the going price, and likewise, just because a homosexual paid 10 million doesnt mean that is the going price. some can get a relation free, some can get it for 10 million, screw and get screwed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is merit in your comment, another piece that fits the jigsaw of success, the art of managing improvement on a regular basis without the expense of big ticket items just to impress others.
