Smilodon Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 First of all I'm happily married with my Thai wife...So how many more farangs here in LOS are happily married with their Thai partners? I noticed that some farangs are either happy or married. First, when they arrive in Thailand they seems to be very happy but after getting married everything seems to go wrong. Or is this just true with some farangs with retirement benefits (pension + new local thai wife)? I'm wondering if the lack of happiness is due to the large gap in relative attractiveness of teh couples you have seen, or are they both similar age and attractiveness? As one who has known at least one guy who was married to someone who was older than he I can attest that being with some older, cold hag(gis) (which she was on the inside) can get really old (as it were ) really fast. As much as one may WANT to be attracted to, and in love with, someone who is WAY beneath one's visual attractiveness league, it is a burden, and I suspect it can get old for people where the man is the less sexy one, also.

jumnien Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Very happily married to a wonderful Thai woman. My only marriage to a farang woman lasted 5 weeks, this one's lasted almost 4 years. One boy and hopefully more little one's in time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmart Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 My lovely better half and I are reasonably the same age, education level, and speak other's languages fluently. We hit it off right from the start, and really enjoy each others company. From knowledge earned from a failed first relationship with a Thai girl, its important to have a lot of things in common, or else the cultural; educational; language; and age gaps are pretty much impossible to bridge.

llso Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 HI, I think the prroblem is you only hear aabbout he bad cases. AS I like to say "no news is good news". My Thaai wwife aand I haave been together for over 5 years and maried for over 3. We haave a 4 year old daughter together and we haave lived in Thailand the entire time. I think that makes a big difference. Our common denominator is our daughter. Also I was luccky in that my wife didn't already have children. In addition her family is not greedy and we help them out very little. There is only a less thaan twenty year age difference between us and now that my wife is almost 30 years old she is not a young girl anymore. She is a good girl and has stucck with me throgh thick and thin even when we were so broke eveeen when all we had to eat was rice and eggs. I was fortunate and had to oppurtunity to live here before getting involved. Actually met my wife when I first got here but opted for the so-called educated Thai good girl who turned out to be worst than any Thai hooker that you could find. She tought her shit didn't stink and she was worth her weight in gold . She went onto become a lesbiaan and theen recently is marrying some older overweight Falang who thinks he got himself the "good one" LL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nignoy Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 I'm guessin that the rate of happiness among farang/thai woman married couples would be generally higher than farang/farang. High maintenance gets stale after a while What a ridiculous thing to say! Many of the Thai/farang relationships that I read about on this forum sound extremely high maintenance to me. FTR, I am happily married, 17 years, 4 kids, not to a Thai. Could it be that some intelligent farang woman got the better of you some time ago? Sounds like sour grapes. Sounds a little bit offensive to me ,my first marriage was to a thai lady in 1963 legalised in Thailand and in the British Consulate in Bangkok my 2 children both recieved dual nationality,in september 1966 my marriage was anulled by the british Govt on security grounds, she remarried, but my english wife and I have remained close friends with my ex thai wife and her family and I have no doubt that we would still be together now after 44 years, you write you have been married 17 years you are still learning mate!!

oooooo Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 First of all I'm happily married with my Thai wife...So how many more farangs here in LOS are happily married with their Thai partners? I noticed that some farangs are either happy or married. First, when they arrive in Thailand they seems to be very happy but after getting married everything seems to go wrong. Or is this just true with some farangs with retirement benefits (pension + new local thai wife)? neither married nor really happy, to answer ur question straight. but then again i got a little money and a one year visa. so i shouldnt really cry, should i ? in my 18 yrs in this country i have unfortunately only witnessed one relationship/cross-cultural marriage which produced three kids and one successful commercial enterprise. i respect them for that. as for me, i will just stick with my marital status ( single ), works for me cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oooooo Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Happily married, two kids both girls and we are hoping the next is a boy.

chanchao Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Why not turn this into a poll? All responses become a bit meaningless this way. Anyway: Yes I'm married and yes I'm happy. (Don't know about her though. ) Cheers, Chanchao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nignoy Mr Nignoy, you're still my hero after this post. I'm once divorced and twice widowed and I say respect to anyone who is mature and sensible enough to stay happily married. I envy you and all others who can step up and say, "No regrets". After what I've lost for ever I really envy all those guys walking around with a little family and their happiness rubs off on me. And I don't understand the cynics who carry on with a bad marriage. I didn't. So enjoy. Edited February 7, 2007 by qwertz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qualtrough Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 About as happy as any married man could be after 12 yrs. with my wife (Thai) and two lovely daughters. Say, this topic raises another issue. If you look back, the vast majority of posters reporting kids said they had daughters.

buriramboy Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 i've often wondered about this too, i have a 3 1/2 year old daughter and out of 5 good freinds who all have kids here in Pattaya, only 1 has a son the rest daughters, also got 3 good mates in BKK and they all have daughters. Must be something in the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
