RamenRaven Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) Some of us walk faster than our significant others. Others might be slower due to injuries, being middle-aged, or just wanting to take it easy. And for others, it probably depends on the situation. Participate in the poll above and let's see what we get! Edited June 27, 2022 by RamenRaven 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 No. But she walks slower than me. I think on purpose. As she can walk the same speed as me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poppysdad Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 My wife for whatever reason usually likes to walk behind me which I find frustrating when she is far more fitter and capable than me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacessit Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 We probably walk at a similar pace. However, her taking about 200 photos in 9 holes of golf means she always lags behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Triangle Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 It's not difficult to walk faster than my mrs, I'm about 5'11" and she's lucky to get over 5'. I have to slow down for her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 My wife walks slower then me but that is ONLY because she needs a Knee operation but she is not doing the operation. So I walk the same speed as her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post nikmar Posted June 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2022 Depends on what we are walking towards - a somtam stall, and she's a woman on a mission and she practically sprints. If we go for a pleasant stroll in the park then she can nearly go backwards. Im thinking of hanging a bowl of pla raa in front of her, carrot and stick style. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myran Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Yes, and she complains that I walk in front of her instead of next to her. The problem being that when I slow down to let her catch up, she slows down as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonlover Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Madam Moon walks a lot faster than me when we're heading for the shopping mall or supermarket, then slows down to the usual Thai snail's pace once we get there! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dmaxdan Posted June 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2022 I can't really remember. It's been a very long time since we walked anywhere together. I do remember going for a countryside walk with her in the UK back in 2009 and I have no memory of loosing her so she must have kept up. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post chickenslegs Posted June 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2022 When walking near handbag or shoe shops I tend to speed up, whilst she tends to slow down or stop. The opposite applies when near a tools shop. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife does that ,nearly tripping me up on occasions she cant come up with any sensible reason why she does it though. I suspect its to drive me crazy like most other things she does.

swissie Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Traditionally Thai women walk 2 meters behind "her man". Still very common in rural Thailand. I am amazed, how many Farang "Cultural-Experts" don't know about this. ------------------------- In modern times, many Thai Males may find this tradition very helpful, especially while walking around in shopping malls. It puts a natural distance between the males wallet and his female companion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
