Jimdandy Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 So sad. Too many times, mostly men and sometimes women end their temporary misery with a permanent solution that does not have to be this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Maybe the girl sucked him dry of money and he spent it all , he felt only solution was to kill himself. Only speculations of course. Anyway , anyone who are mentally unstable and suicidal should seek professional help , unfortunately Thailand does not offer much help for foreigners.

AlexRich Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 If I were a relative I'd want this investigated, I can't understand why a person of that age would do that, a break-up is a set-back but it's hardly the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is that doesnt work for everyone, who knows the mental situation of the French guy, this may just have pushed him over the edge. RIP to the guy. You should have married a good Catholic girl.

What!!. How do you know I am a strong person, you have absolutely no idea of the circumstances of the demise of my marriages. I was CRUSHED beyond belief, especially the the second one was the mother of my 3 children but we split because I was working so many hours to keep the family in clothes and shoes she found someone else who did not work so many hours and had a bigger car and a bigger bank balance, do you know what it's like to loose your family? Yes I was SMASHED , but I had to keep going to support the children who hardly saw me anymore. Everything you worked 7 days a week for.....gone in a second. But what relevance is this to this thread, none , which is why I said nothing about my circumstances until YOU brought them up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP Sadly I had a friend who did this in his bedroom, terrible loss of a great friend, apparently he had run out of funds after quite a long time in LOS and the GF kept on borrowing, even after he passed away his assets had disappeared mysteriously.

Sydebolle Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 She 23, he 45 - the writing is on the wall. It is difficult enough if she's 40 and he is 60 but a 23 year old woman has expectations which a 45 year old has seen, experienced or consumed already. To top it off he might have been too sensitive too. And, as the saying goes, Thailand is not particularly well known for being a country with sensitivity and stability - as far as humanity is concerned.

Never worth doing something like this. I WONDER. I just wonder if the guy's "intent" is too cause extreme anguish and hurt to his wife, so he does this to her. Is he doing this for himself? Perhaps, but I often wonder if he's so angry and upset and somewhat "humiliated" about a public divorce, that he wants to hurt the woman in the only way he can. Just wondering. Never quite understood suicide. Exactly. This man had a "she'll be sorry" moment, in the brief time before he choked out forever. The young woman needs counselling and acceptance that whatever HE did was HIS responsibility and his death is not on her, it's on him. As so many posters say (because they're alive) they went through awful moments with spouses and ex-spouses. So has pretty well everybody. It's too bad this man took his life, perhaps if he'd had some help he wouldn't have. But he did and it is NOT his girlfriend's fault, or anyone's fault but his own. I think this is a case where many of the most popular religions have it right, by the way. They forbid suicide and it's a "mortal sin" or the equivalent. Many of them won't even allow the burial of a suicide in their official cemeteries. I wouldn't dare to argue whether it's weak or strong to commit suicide, but it's certainly wrong, and I hope very strongly that this Thai woman is strong enough to wipe every shred of blame from herself over it, and then move on. The suicide wants her to be sorry. But she shouldn't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP Oliver, sorry I didn't help you more in these difficult time....love you,wherever you are... Thanks for this insight. However the article said she was the wife, not the girlfriend. What do you mean "lost for love"? The 17yo boy obviously was not her son and should not have been "lost" to him. Maybe he thought of losing the 2yo baby, but they hadn't even begun to live apart, most men in the same situation would want to support her and see her grow up even if she was with her mother. It seems that, as you imply, the guy needed some serious help. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get up dust yourself down and move on to the next one. The guy must have had some serious issues. Feel sorry for his family back in France, and it must have been a real shock for his wife finding him like that, that's the stuff of nightmares RIP Fella Consider that it may not have been the breakup of the marriage that caused his suicide, but the consequences of it. After my marriage ended, I had to leave Thailand, and I can imagine that for some the thought of either leaving LOS, or having to go back to the home country is enough to want to end it.
