Plenty of posts about murder, knife attacks, buried bodies, child snatching and buying houses you get thrown out of. I find her tale of woe commonplace and completely credible. You have to remember that Thailand attracts a lot of dregs, people who are misfits who will find problems and trouble wherever they go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of vicious crimes in the USA as well if you follow the news. But as I said, I don't personally know anyone with those types of problems, Thai or farang. If you do....my condolences.

I was attacked twice by women wielding a machete, one a girlfriend I lived with, and one the lady I married. Don't really consider myself 'dregs', just a pensioner trying to have a bit of fun in his twilight years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been with the same Thai lady for 9 years, haven't been attacked yet, at least not physically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get my drift ? Yes , years ago in England when anyone got in a hissy , if it was only a hissy and someone threatened someone else it was back to the beer and ' Nothing to see here just handbags '.

neeray Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Sounds like such a sweet little lady. Gosh darn, how come I never met her in CM? I guess she was locked inside when I was out and about with my lovely Thai sweetheart who wouldn't say <deleted> if she had a mouthful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
