And even in the Western World, in the not too distant past - my father worked and my mother stayed home and took care of the household... his 'taking care' was assumed - financially.

Of course, in the end, he didn't follow that advice. I understand some can not afford just to leave, and are stuck. Times was different just 10 year back or before when they settled, and maybe thought the same as me? But for me in Isan, I can not let that happen, I need to know I can escape if necessary, and also do have a plan, and not cut all ties to the real world. Still got property back home as well. when that is said, I believe I made gold out of stone, and time will show if Im right or not. At least it havenot taken my sleep away, and Im still enjoying my pink glasses handed out when I landed first time back 20 years ago. Unbreakable and of excellent quality. Not sure they make them anymore now, and give away cheep made in china glasses instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrunchWrapSupreme Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 From what I've heard, I'm lucky I got a wife who wants to work. She was working her behind off waitressing when I first met her in a BKK restaurant. She had also been doing housekeeping and reception in hotels. As I teach English online to adults now, I love telling them of her success story. She had only finished school up to 6th grade, after which her parents then made her work on the farm, then factories, then she made her way to BKK. And no, while she's cute, she couldn't measure up to the head turners who went into the usual profession, so it was off into legit hospitality she went. Here she talked to the tourists, and acquired a decent, conversational level of English, the same I tell my students they could easily have with the same level of practice and dedication as she. After we dated and later got married, she's traveled around with me as I've worked at different schools. Of course being the farang I had to provide support, but this didn't mean she had to quit. She picked up jobs in restaurants where we were living, and for the landladies at our apt buildings, cleaning up the place, and handling the tenants. When I got a job at a certain awful, disgustingly arrogant BKK private school, it fortunately had a great fringe benefit, a busy market next to our condo. Here she opened a somtam shop, and in the first three months with a lot of sweat and coming home at 10-11 pm each night, she raked in 150k baht. Seeing this motivated her to keep going. She didn't want to quit. Unfortunately Covid put an end to that, as there was a body found in the street not far from that market, prompting it and our shop's shutdown. Good timing as I was sick of that school anyway, so back to her parent's place here in Issan we came, scoring a job at the local country bumpkin school, which I'd take over dealing BKK hi-sos any day of the week. She's still working, in a shop in a market next to the dusty country road. Mr. Farang husband brings home a modest amount from the country bumpkin school and online teaching, yet she still doesn't want to quit. Next step is the USA, where we've both been eyeing the labor shortage in the news, $60k a year for me, and $15-20/hr for her. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

it is what it is Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 i guess this refers to a certain type of girl, maybe, also, a certain type of guy.. i've, honestly, never, ever had a girl say that to me. despite my lack of experience, common sense would suggest she means she wants money/financial security. i think i'd advise anyone who said that to me to get a job as everyone else has to.

Everything, 100%. Just think like if you have a daughter. You pay for EVERYTHING. Personally I think that is fair if you get a pretty young cute girl who makes you happy every day. But why would anybody take care of an old women who is just too lazy to do anything? Just imagine she would ask you if you want to take care of her... As someone once said very wisely on these boards: "There are really only two questions: Can you afford that and is she worth it?". BTW - she's gonna need a car, after all, all her friends have one. I used to "take care" of some like that a few afternoons a week. They were "working their passage" as it were. They throw the uniform away once they finish uni (you did WHAT?)

rwill Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Perhaps when you meet someone just ask them straightoff if they want to quit their job. If they say no then there you go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubascuba3 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 1 hour ago, OneMoreFarang said: I think in part this is the "I will take care of you" promise. I never promised any girl a regular payment. She stays with me and I pay for life. And if she needs new clothes or a new phone or whatever that is ok, that is real life. But nothing like: Take x amount every month. A girl who doesn't like a guy wouldn't agree to such an arrangement. And a girl who is happy if she is together with the guy she loves doesn't need more. Presumably they have jobs then?

Sparktrader Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Love the Heat movie until the end. If De Niro goes to NZ he lives and you get a sequel to the movie! Huge writing error! He goes to NZ finds a girl then after 5 years gets bored comes back to rob banks. Heat 2 Then he gets away to Carribean to become a poker player. Heat 3 Pacino finds him and kills him on a beach late one night. 3 movies instead of one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad91 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 How old are you though ? Because if you are 20+ years older than the girl then I think they may ask for a financial benefit as part of the deal. I am younger than my Thai Wife and she doesn't ask for much and we have lived together for over 4 years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's fair enough too as long as you know the deal and don't delude yourself she is in love with you. And like most things here in LOS that may look good on the outside ....be prepared to lose it. If you got deep pockets and happy to indulge her...she is young and beautiful and the girl makes you happy have at it. Just don't fall in love with her Edited May 4, 2022 by Kenny202 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
