You have to set up certain boundaries when you meet, not years after. Mine was never to pay allowance or her bills. That part works fine, but there are of course other issues.

mentalcolonization Posted March 1, 2019 Author Share Posted March 1, 2019 I just popped this today that she has to take care of the bills this month and it nearly escalated. I have no issues with extension though some may think. I am on a working visa and need to travel out for personal reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youlike Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Take her lipstick, write "No money no Honey" on the mirror and sleep in the other bedroom tonight. That 'll teach her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gracas Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Why do farang here ask these sort of questions of the Thai wife. Will you pay the bills, Why won't you apologize, Will you and your family step up and provide the 800K I need in the Bank for my extension. Even though these are all valid questions / requests you are just setting yourself up to be disappointed. As for the Thai wife and family they need to realize that owning a farlang is not all beer and skittles, there are expenses and other considerations that maybe incurred along the way.

rjwill01 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 The Thai way is if you have a live in or wife, never ask her to pay anything. Part of the deal is to use your money. If she works, that money is her security if you leave. She's not going to use her money for bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some times yes, my first Thai wife would never pay i baht for anything. My wife now completely different, if she goes food shopping she pays, we share everything.

Pilotman Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 My wife pays the bills with money from our joint account, usually, one trip per month to the local 7/11 does the job.

Well fair enough I guess, but if she doesn't pay the bills and he is away and the water and elect get cut off, she's the one that suffers. As I say, mental or lazy? Maybe on his way back home, he books into cheap accommodation for a few weeks and leaves her to sort out the ensuring home utilities mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP is just another guy who hired a woman to pretend to love him, then gets upset when reality doesn't match his delusion IMHO. As long as you keep paying many will pretend to love you until you die, ask them to put their hand in their own pocket, and you'll be in for a sudden shock. I'm OK hiring women to sleep/live/reproduce with me, no need to delude myself it's about more than the money though, hired help is hired help, end of.

My Thai wife was/is a home lady and took care of our daughter, as she grew up (the daughter grew up, not the wife ! ), the home and me , so I have always been the bread winner, I guess in that circumstance, the issue facing the OP doesn't arise.

It is just another fantasy peddled by the foreign geriatrics,the addled,the superannuated used care salesman/real estate agents and the terminally bored.. They mainly live in Chang Mai-where their 1917 pattern gas masks are not helping them a jot at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seajae Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 my wife has always paid the bills with her own money, she usually buys the groceries too unless I am with her at the time.
