My GF is 23 years younger than me.

What I find interesting is the reactions of people in my place of origin, Australia.

The men are secretly envious. They are hesitant about asking me questions in front of their dragon wives.

The women all hate me, I am setting a bad example for their menfolk.

It's a fun thing to see with all those live webcam streams, a few on Samui for example. You can often see how their faces and body language really works out, right after the guy does not look at her or when she turns around / talks to friends.

 

Same thing I always love to watch people from bars in real life too. I have to say, first I didn't like to see it, then I adjusted but the longer I live here, the more I see how disgusted (and disgusting) both of them usually are. 

 

I sometimes feel sorry for the guys, who do not seem to notice at all, how their beloved wife behaves when they go to the toilet, look away etc. That is even often when they are of the same age tho, just the majority of all couples here I see.

The exceptions there are, beautiful relationships sure, but very few (lasting ones).

I remember one day when I was in Soi 4 on the way to NANA. A girl and her (I guess) customer walked in my direction. She was in front of him and smiled at me and she had that: sorry I am busy right now but I can see you later look.

He, walking behind her, had that: Look at what I got, you will never have a girl like that look.

 

Obviously there is not a small part of my imagination in that interpretation. But after a while we have an idea how the girls look like who just have a customer but like to let you know that they will be back for you. ????

May I suggest an upcoming article topic: 40-50 year old digital nomads discovering that their dreams of supporting themselves by becoming a travel blogger or vlogger may not have been very realistic.

Are you saying I can't get rich by going on vacation and letting people watch? I'm shocked.

Are those live webcam streams from bars with girls and their customers? Do they exist? Do you have any links?

Buy one get one free perhaps?

Good for you and I have no doubt that many of those men there that you see  are possibly married to old selfish hags who have let themselves go. The only way they can save face is to act in a pompous, sanctimonious manner attempting to decry others such as yourself who are more fortunate perhaps, knowing full well life has somehow by-passed them.  Much like some of the posters on here no doubt.

Whilst I am grateful my wife and I are the same age this isn't just about foreigners. My Thai neighbour in his 70s married and girl of 19 with the blessing of both families. She is now 24 and looks older than her years but he was true to his word and bought her a car and she has her own business all paid for by him. No one is kidding themselves this is nothing more than a transactional relationship that is of benefit of both parties.

I met (I guess) a mid-30's woman at her shop. She said she had lived in USA with her American husband for many years. She said her big problem was discrimination.

 

I asked: Discrimination for whom?  She said: For me as Asian.

 

I said the places you tell me you lived all have significant Asian populations. Without getting too personal, if your husband is much older than you, you were likely to incur discrimination for that more than for your being Asian.

 

She said nothing.

I think most of us went through the candy shop phase when we first came here, 50 odd year old, knocking around with the 20 year old fit slim women. I certainly enjoyed it for many years.

 

But then some sort of reality takes hold for most of us. That 20 year old is not going to be pushing you in your wheelchair or wiping your bum in old age ! 

 

We mostly find suitable partners - yes, after the candy shop - that are nearer to our own age and not 40 years younger. 

 

We all fall apart in old age, going through it on your own and your 20 year old g/f watching it cannot be fun. I'm 58 now, the wife 44, we are slowly falling apart, and it's comforting to know we are falling apart together. I do not feel sad about the odd back pain, grey hair loss or lost tooth, etc, when it's happening to the wife beside me. 

 

I also know the difference now between a loving wife with that will be there to the end, as opposed to a loving g/f that I have nothing in common with that will be there until the money runs out

 

 

58 & 44 & both starting to fall apart?

Oh Richard, it's gunna be death by a thousand cuts!

Keep the wheelchair out of sight mate.

Good Luck????????

A 24 year age gap between her and Donald or another example is Fabiana and Bernie Ecclestone where there is a 47 year age gap.  Don't see the usual crowd of the envious calling them out due to the age difference.

Sooner or later the man gets to a point where he is just plain to damn old to do anything except wait to die.

 

In this stage, a good man spends all his time financially planning for his eventual demise, so that his young wife will be rich and be able to find the life she really wanted in the first place.

That sounds strange to me.

Would such a "good man" stay with a much younger girl at all if he cares so much about her future?

 

In my limited experience from relative rich guys and their younger girlfriends there is just one thing what those girls do after he died. They look for another rich guy.

Spend some time in any farming village, and you can see how natural selection works.  Young women marry early (often an arranged marriage), have children.  With alcohol or drug addictions—and limited options for support, the marriage often fails.  No wonder she sees the westerner as a ticket to prosperity.

Sometimes the age gap Thai/western marriage  succeeds—win/win.

Guys of any age want pretty (healthy) young girls.

Girls want guys with resources.

That's nature.

The beauty of Thailand is that men and women still accept these facts and don't pretend otherwise.

Many men in farang-land are so brainwashed from all that feminists <deleted> that after a while they actually believe they prefer old women. 555

Really you believe that?

 

In many 'normal' relationships men & woman are of a similar age.

 

If you are just talking about sex well OK, just go for it.

 

But at the end of the day what does that 25 yo and the 70 yo talk about at the end of the day, other than "tillack want boom boom".

I'm sure discussing her day at work, what book you are reading, let's watch this film together figure really high on the list of chit chat topics

 

So if delusion sex is all you want that works, but watch out for the mysterious 'brother' or 'cousin'

 

Sex is an important part of our lives, but really money for love, dangerous business

I never picked a girl with the question on my mind if she would push my wheelchair.

 

But if I would look for such a girl and if I would be maybe 60 your old then I would look for a 20 year old. Because when I am 80 she is 40 and she will still be able to push that chair.

If I would look for an older woman then maybe I have to push her chair. Or she is too old and not strong enough to move me around.

But the question is who will care for you when your health deteriorates?

You could hire a nurse and/or maid.

 

I think it's sad when people choose their gf/wife with the though in mind that she will take care of him when he is so old and fragile that he can't do it anymore.

Is that what you want for your beloved wife's future? 

[Peterw42]

One of the advantages of the inappropriately young wife, is the mother in-law, you will have a great relationship. She will be your age, can remember the moon landings, knows who Elvis is, has the same medical issues. So living in, or trips back to the village, you have a like minded friend to hang out with while the wife catches up with her boyfriend, oops brother

Her loving gaze over the dinner table is from happily contemplating what she'll do with all his money when the wrinkly old fella keels over.

Just like in America (UK, Australia, anywhere?) where most women make plans for what they will do when their husbands die, as they expect to outlive their husbands.

If you are married and you don't think your wife has thought about this, you are probably wrong.

 

Nothing wrong with it, just reality.

Here's a tip for noobs. Asian people do not display outward signs of affection. If your date is holding hands and especially kissing or anything remotely like that - she's sinking the hook in you.

 

Another hot tip: don't do this in public as you'll look like a dope being taken for a ride. It's already obviously you're paying her by hour. Don't advertise how desperate you are for affection

Those rules seem to apply to village life. But who wants to live in a village?

If you live in Pattaya or the more lively areas of Bangkok then do what you want? If you want to kiss her in the middle of the street then do it. Who is going to complain? The other mongers around you?

I'm one of the weirdo's.  My wife is older than I am.

Interesting perspective.

 

So you would pick the partner with the outlook of her being your care giving while not wanting to reciprocate.

So your 40 something still capable of caring for you gets in a car wreak, and ends up in the 'chair'

You dump her, for a more chair pushing worthy replacement?

 

I'd like to think in any loving long term relationship it doesn't matter which one of you needs caring for.

It's not a question of my believe, it's a fact.

You can read books about it or talk with experts.

 

People who think otherwise are brainwashed by modern education or feminists or other guys who were brainwashed for too long.
