18, small, brown and innocent?

 

Wirgin 100%

Think my first words were 'what happened to your hair' at the airport. Looked like she'd  washed it and then gone on a motorbike without a helmet for 10 miles to let it dry

Only words I can remember was asking why she had a photograph of her brother next to her bed, she said that was me before the operation..

Mine couldn't speak a word of English, but after 20 years, she can get by. She met some of her best friends at ECC when she started learning.

Perhaps that is the secret to a successful marriage not being able to converse .

I love that look

I saw her up in the stands when I was playing baseball. I went straight up and said, "Buy yourself a dress and do something with that hair. We're getting married on Sunday. Don't be late!"

The question you should never ask........

Here's few good jokes on marriage and couples...

 

1. My wife and I have decided we don’t want kids.
If you’re interested, please contact us immediately to arrange dropping them off.

 

2. How do you know if your husband is dead?
The sex is the same, but you get to use the remote.

3. I asked my wife to let me know next time she has an orgasm.
She said she doesn’t like to bother me when I’m at work.

4. I can remember when I got married and I can remember where I got married.
For the life of me, I can’t remember why I got married.

5. My partner told me I was rude for yawning when we were arguing.
I told them I wasn’t yawning, I thought it was my turn to speak.

6. What’s the difference between a relationship and a video game?
They both start off fun and easy, then get a litter harder. If you make it to the end without breaking, everyone is shocked.

7. “I love you,” she said.
“Is that you talking,” I asked, “Or the wine?”
“It’s me talking to the wine.”

8. Why do wives use twice as many words as their husbands?
Because they always have to repeat themselves.

 

9. My boyfriend and I met on the internet and my mother asked him what line he used to get me.
He said, “I just used a modem.”

10. What do a wife and a grenade have in common?
They both leave you hurt when you pull off the ring.

...

How do you know when your wife is dead? The sink gets full of dirty dishes?

Met mine upside-down on a pole.  Her, not me.

 

Nobody I know met their wife in a bar. 

 

Thai girls are just natural born pool players, have an inherent ability to chug 12 Tequila Rose's and not be fazed, play jackpot or connect-4 against a non-Thai and only lose if they want to, and say hello/where you from/where you stay etc in at least 5 languages.

It's been 25 years now. With a few missteps by me. But I write this in the Issan home. 

I was working at Star Refinery in Rayong (now Shell I think).  Met her outside McDonald's in Pattaya. Struck up a conversation and the rest is history.

Which wife?

????

We met online in 2004.  I came to bkk in December, 2004 and we met in person.  We’ve been together ever since!

How do you say that in Thai? Teach me.

Mochit bus station. I was here on holidays and planned on travelling up across Isan and into Laos for a few weeks. 

Anyways, I already had my bus ticket and was heading up to Korat (first leg of the trip) and then up to Nong Kai. As I walked along the platform, I saw her sitting there looking at her phone (this is pre-smartphone). At first glance, I didn't think much of her and walked past. However, a few seconds later, I couldn't help but look back just to double check. She wore a black jeans and black t-shirt. After that, I just had to talk to her. I played the "lost tourist" and approached her for help finding my bus... It just so happened that we were both assigned seats next to each other on the bus. 16-17 years later, still together and have a beautiful little boy. It hasn't always been easy, but definitely the longest relationship I've ever had. 

Met my wife on Thai Love Links 17 years ago. We have been married for 16 years.  My great opening line was “Hi, how are you”

Do you want a drink?

 

Soon after the first words: Let's go!

Any issues from your family, or did you keep that quiet?

You're joking, I hope! 

I caught her Ping-Pong ball and it was love at first sight.

Met her at sister's restaurant at local night market.  Only chickie here that constantly told me NO, when asked out to lunch & dinner.

 

Finally warmed up to me, after more than a few months, as daughter & I were regular customers of Sis' excellent food.

 

Moved in after 6 months of dating, then 8 yrs of 'courtship' before marriage, and been together 15+ yrs.  On 3rd house build together, as I get bored and move on rather quickly, though this will be last house, and a good base to explore.

I don't think that is a problem.

Thailand and other countries can be discerningly discreet when need be.

I met the first wife in the Lido bar in Saigon in 1967, 32 years later I had to make a change. In 1999 I met my friends secretary in bangkok, 21 years later we're still together...even tho I didn't divorce my first wife!  Both are loving women and great cooks, 3 children with the first, none with the second. I wouldn't change a second of my life!!

Always refreshing to hear someone say "Wouldn't Change for a Second".

Good on-ya Bloke.
