OneMoreFarang Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I don't remember too many Thai ladies asking to borrow money. Normally they offer services for money. But I remember many family members and "friends" asking for money and they obviously all said they will pay it back, and soon, and 100% sure...

Popular Post rwill Posted February 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2022 Why specify women. It really applies to anyone. Most people that need money don't have the means to repay it either. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hummin Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Said have no problem to borrow close family of my gf money wheo she would say yes to. So far in 5 years none of them have asked. A few of her school mates have tried to ask my gf, and the same did more than once, and this never have really been her friends, but want to be her friends now. I know my gf was bullied in school and in the village since she was dam dam to much and now they suddenly take contact with her out of the blue. She get sad when this happens, but also seems to enjoy to tell them no. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elgenon Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I lent 2,000 to a Thai girl. She paid it back. Later learned she had borrowed from a loan shark. She had knots on her head. Not good. 5 hours ago, LaosLover said: It's a fairly unusual mindset to be comfortable about some variation of pay for play in a romantic relationship, whether it be long term or just for an hour. Prob less than 2% of people in the world relate this way. They seem happier than the average, like most people are who are (finally) getting the sex that they really want. I give such unions the same open-minded respect that I would to people in poly-relationships or kinky relationships. I don't understand the judgement that many people have against any of these consent-based relationships. If I wanted to help a girl I would just give her money. The problem is I would keep getting asked for more. Not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That goes for women of any nationality. I had a long time Thai GF that worked on Soi Cowboy that asked me for a loan. I agreed to lend her the money, and the next time I returned to Thailand I was going to give it to her. She declined as she had already paid for whatever it was. Was she the only honest bar girl in Thailand? Sadly my wife wasn't as inclined to honesty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headgame Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 (edited) Lend money to a Thai - can't stop laughing. There is only one financial transaction in TH - you give the money and never expect to ever be repaid - period. I'm ambivalent and don't care if anyone wants to give their money away just do it with both eyes WIDE OPEN and understand it's a gift. BTW, saying "no" is not difficult to do and should always be the first answer. You can always change your mind.

spidermike007 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 The general rule of course is do not loan money to women. Or anyone, for that matter. However, in my opinion it depends on who they are, how well you know them, what kind of family they come from (good people, or lazy do nothings), etc. I have lent money to several women over the years. I have lent money to my wife (prior to and after getting married), or her family, and always gotten it back. Always. Not always on time. But, 100% of the time the money was returned. However, they are really good people, they take this kind of thing seriously, and they are super solid folks, who work hard. I have also lent money to a few friends over the years, and most of the time I have gotten it back. Not always. But, usually I know up front which ones are going to live up to their promises. The funny thing about lending money, is that if you do lend money to people who are not good and solid types, they end up resenting you afterwards, because they own you money. My wife has lent small amounts to some of her friends, and been burned countless times. She does not do that anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwasaki Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 As I have stated maybe many don't lend money I'm one who does but only to family and my Mrs sorts it and keeps the 10% interest. ???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool Lou Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Even more concerning than the subject of loaning money to Thai girls is why so many people refer to female Thai as "ladies", "my lady", etc., they're girls, or women. Where else in the world do men refer to females they have relationships with, as my "lady"? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, this new one. I said I paid cash in full. Yeah but she needed some money so she refinanced it for 40k. A couple weeks later asked me pay off the new loan on the motorbike.

I also lent money to Thai girls - both to a real gold digger, and to a cute young university student - and guess what, I didn't get them back... But then I lent money to a nice girl and got everything back - i.e. same-same, but different - that's why amazing Thailand is so amazing, you never know what happens next...???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grain Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Not just money but pretty well everything else you own can/will be "borrowed" which means it's gone for good. Stuff like T-shirts, umbrellas, bintos, caps/hats, raincoats, all borrowed never to be seen again. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some of us it's not a problem, for those who are skint it is. Some of my former Thai GF's were Hi-so they didn't want me to pay even when we went out on dates but I did except when they paid on father's day or my birthday. My wife asked me could I let her sister build a house on land we had bought, was large enough to build 10 houses on. Years later she surprised me with $10,000 USD to pay for the land as she has her own company now. She also paid my hospital bill after I had a heart attack. I have full coverage insurance from USA but it was a Holiday weekend and needed time to have money transfered She paid by credit card and I paid her later. Also gave a Thai lady (not GF) who owns a guesthouse a few hundred to pay electric and some bills till high season kicked in , She paid me back after 6 weeks. Have a mama san and maseuse who because of pandemic have had cash problems so I have sent them 1,000 baht once or twice a month to get food. They have paid me back one way or another when I meet up with them. I say like in gambling never lose more than you can aford but I sometimes lend small aounts ,if I get it back fine if not oh well. PS After paying for Sin Sod to family of my wife none of the family has ever asked me for a Satang since then. Most of the family are miidle class and own properties (Farms,houses, apartments) It depends on what kind of Thai you hang around if they try and use you.
