Gecko123 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Seminar doesn't seem to have attracted many father-in-laws. Anyone have any thoughts about why this might be the case? I know Thailand doesn't have a jury system, but can you imagine if the ladies in this photo were the jury pool? Would be your worst legal nightmare, wouldn't it?

Or are they all the "also ran", who fell at the first fence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Englishexpat Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 What a load of <deleted>. So this Falang and his wife are experts and going to teach everything about a mixed marriage. Never heard so much <deleted> in my life. Ohhh yes its perfectly fine to ask husband for money for family and if he doesnt give it just try and con him out of it. If he finds out you can always run away with your Thai boyfriend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about all the foreigner scammed into buying them houses, scammed into 50 percent shares in a company they put nothing into, only to divorce and get half back. And abused, well, just how many foreigners have fallen off balconies lately. Top of the list would have to be the problems these poor innocents face when confronted by angry husbands because they can't be faithful. Do thai spouses even understand that word ? Faithful. ? not sure there's even a Thai translation. I'm sure glad I never went looking for Thai women where you must have gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janner1 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Farang Marriage Training Clinic Opens In Khon Kaen so they are going to teach us how to give in to every request from the family to give money by way of a non repayable loan!! Do they really believe that this will shut down the loan sharks?? Some bright spark said they are going to teach all these farang husbands how to drive the Thai way, because the Thai way is best !! When you think about it the Thai way wipes out large numbers of the population every month so what a good way for the wife to get her hands on all the old buffalo owns. They know all the scams these Thais Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Some marriages to Thai women are not bad, and some women are honest hard working and faithful people. Try not to let sisters or brothers of your Thai wife live with you as that complicates a complicated marriage. My one relative was conned out of money from some of the GFs, but now he found a lovely, honest and hard working lady and is now, happily married, only 3 tries. I do feel sorry for the people on this forum who have been cheated on by their wives, but think that there are very few angels anywhere on earth., even on this forum..

Opposing pages referring to an issue with one page in Thai, one in English. One of the books to help introduce differences in cultural outlook. If you need a book to help you with the obvious factors that matter in a relationship, you are going to be in for a tough ride no matter what. In any relationship: 1. Communicate. Keep on communicating, don't take anything for granted. People change over time. Keep on communicating. About your feelings, desires and everything else. 2. Being a bit flexible, trying to put yourself in the position of others. Being kind and caring and not some selfish **** that puts 'me' first far above anything else. 3. Better find a partner that you share common things with. It's certainly helps if your characters are not too far apart, social class not too far apart, education (Or intellectual capacity if you like) not too far apart, age not too far apart. Cultural difference are a rather minor thing if your personalities are compatible and you keep on communicating. As for the training centre: why is it one sided? It only aims at Thai women and the dangers and struggles that they may face. What about the foreign men? Same sex couples? Thai men with a foreign girl? Tips for the foreigners? What exactly does the clinic contribute compared to a clinic that advices women (and men?) About general dangers, issues and problems they may face in a relationship? It's a good thing to remind women not to put up with an abusive husband (And what to do if he is an abusive bastard) but his nationality is irrelevant. So what exactly does this add what a general help centre or hotline couldn't achieve? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many foreign men here look in the wrong places to find a decent and faithful wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems the centre appears to be one-sided towards women because it's being held at "the Rattanapa Center for Women’s and Family Development in Khon Kaen city, a pilot learning center set up by government social development ministries." This Khon Kaen centre seems to be nowhere near as impartial as the meeting I went to last year (see post #47), organised by the same ministry. A real shame.
