Some of us don't have to buy our wives.

Anybody who thinks supporting a wife to allow her to be at home, to take good care of the children, a little home schooling, look after the property, take the children to and from school, be a home maker, look after the farm, and be there for her parents, is 'buying' a wife. either cannot easily afford to do it, or is not understanding of the input/benefit from the wife.

Better you guys keep renting, single and cheap, appears to fit better than your understanding of a 'marriage'

So here's the deal!!!  If Thai men can get hot Thai pussy while they drink, are supported by hot bar girls, sleep, get laid, not work, do nothing more than behave like adult children....then why are you paying so much for what they get for free??  Why pay for milk if you can buy the cow?  Nobody is that hot.  After living even with a hot girl, after a few months or years everything will look better than her.  So then you're paying for the mental abuse - right??  You don't love yourself???  Why else do you give her money???  What feeling is she giving you that justify parting with all that money you worked for?  If she is that good at making you happy, you would not have bothered to post, perhaps your starting to see reality....THINK???

He might not want to discuss with farang friends ... better the anonymity offered by TV.

 

What farang friends?

[BobbyL]

Do people actually live like this? Paying your 'wife' over 20k a month?

 

What are you actually getting out of this deal? I sure hope the sex is good.

If you have 2 kids with her and she is your wife and housewife then IMO 20k is nothing...although of course to most on here it's an absolute fortune.

 

You really should have known better than to ask that type of question on here, most on here would walk an extra 10 mins down the road if they could save 2 baht on a bottle of water.

Ha! That made me laugh.

 

I simply never understand why anyone would give these girls even a single cent.

 

Unless she's a cripple, tell her to get off her fat arse and get a job. And if she's unwilling to work, dump her.

If she was used to get a couple of thousand THB for a night of work the question is if she is willing to work for 300B for the whole day. And if she decides to work at night for the big money then maybe hubby won't be exited about that.

Sounds about right. 

Wife just came back from 3 days away in BKK, 260 kilometer drive, one-way. 

5k on departure + a few hundred she already had in her wallet.

2.2k on the ATM, just in case (she never withdrew it).

She spent about 1.4k on fuel using the credit card at PTT. 

Said her brother paid for the hotel rooms.

Should I be worried?  ????

No, don't worry.

If it would have been her husband you can be sure he would have insisted that she (you!) pay for the hotel.

Hm, not so sure, could be another falang kik. But ok to share the cost. No problem

You might be onto something there.  As she unpacked her case in the bedroom, she was being evasive, like she didn't want me to see something.  I pushed in and found THIS!

 

Her dirty laundry smelled of frying oil and malt vinegar, and there was salt and bits of newspaper in the back seat of the Fortuner. 

 

I'm a Yank.  Should I be worried?

If she is going with the children and there is a BBQ and a few drinks and snacks with extended family, 8000 seems OK to me.

Well, she has 20k a month from this guy to pay for that, to be fair

 

I mean, it depends on the relationship and how much money the guy has, it's about communication with the missus, if 20k goes towards keeping the house, food, bills, etc then fair enough, 8k is not much and I am sure she'll spend it on family.

 

If 20k goes in her bank account and she doesn't cover this stuff then she can take the 8k from all the monthly 20k to pay for her trip

Outrageous.  Next month she'll only get 49,875 Baht allowance.  I'm fed up.

Its a British sauce that is predominately consumed by Brits and not widely available in Thailand

[55Jay]

Now I'm suspicious.  The thumb drive in the Fortuner's USB media slot is different.  It usually has Thai and American music.  So I turned the key on and this song started playing. 

What the ?????!?!?!?

??? why does it have to be beer? A few bottles of coke or such isn't expensive.

Lao Khao is the preferred drug in Isaan, and it's cheap.

He is a British Bricklayer who worked in Germany in the 1980's

[55Jay]

Not sure why she'd be listening British noise from an ex-brick layer.

 

She likes normal American music, like Led Zepplin, Duran Duran and the Pet Shop Boys.

My wife is returning to her families for about 3 days and after handing over 8k i was not given a thank you, just a rolling over with the eyes. 

"My wife is returning to her families..."

B8,000 for multiple families is not very much, no wonder she sneered at you.

To be fair, OP also gives her 20K/month for her personal spendings.

Some of us don't want that she works - especially the kind of work which she would get with her limited education.

Some call it luxury wife, personally I think it's just normal that the guy works and makes money and she takes care of the home.

 

Personally I prefer to stay with a girl who spends most of her time with me or at our home. If she would have a normal job she would be at least 8h a day away from home working. If that would be the case could I expect that they cleans and cooks before and after her work? Or should I do that myself?

No, I am no fan of cleaning and cooking...

 

And about beer or coke? She could give everybody a bottle of water and maybe a little rice. They would survive. But is that the way to treat your relatives or friends?

If she works 8 hrs a day why would you not do at very least half the household chores??

If she went to work perhaps she could be bringing interesting conversation to the dinner table with you

GREAT POINT!!!  What is so amazing that you can't do, find somewhere else, or have another woman do it cheaper with more respect?  You are allowed to leave....it is possible...you and everything else will be ok.  Nothing will blow up or die...life will proceed with or without you (and me)...

[sidjameson]

Food for a famiy of four would cost at least 15k bills a few k.

She's shagging a Geordie, from Newcastle. Jimmy Nail is the singer, famous for acting in a comedy drama called Auf Weidershen Pet, about unemployed Newcastle builders working in Germany. His first acting role ... he did well. Not heard of him for a while, he might be the culprit.

That actually explains a lot. 

I asked her how the trip went but couldn't understand a bloody word of what she said.

Soooooo, it's the OP's responsibility to pay for all 20 people at the BBQ? 

It's not his job to feed the extended family, nor is it his responsibility to give his wife that much spending money. She can go get a job if she wants her own money.

The only people "wrong" on here are the ones that think they have to bribe their wives to live with them, IMO.

"Soooooo, it's the OP's responsibility to pay for all 20 people at the BBQ? "

Yes, it is. You typoed with the rofl gif.

 

"It's not his job to feed the extended family, nor is it his responsibility to give his wife that much spending money."

Yes it is. We are in Thailand not in gods own country.

 

"She can go get a job if she wants her own money." She probably has one, what has that to do with giving her 8k extra for a trip home?

 

"The only people "wrong" on here are the ones that think they have to bribe their wives to live with them, IMO."

True ... but that was not the topic, or was it?
