Wife ties up her gambling husband - makes him quit betting or she's going home to mum

[webfact]

Picture: Siam Rath

 

Thailand was having a great laugh - usually signified by 555 (ha ha ha) - after an online post of a man who had been tied up by his wife.

 

The errant husband was bound hands and feet before he agreed to stop his gambling habits.

 

Fah - the wife - was contacted by Siam Rath who said that when a message came in on her husband's phone she thought he was chatting to another woman. 

 

She grabbed the phone and saw that it related to a bank transfer of money so he could play online gambling games.

 

"No I don't" he argued lamely.

 

This was soon proved to be nonsense with a check of bank records that showed many transfers of hundreds of baht a time.

 

Faced with the evidence he held his hands up.

 

So she tied him up to prevent a physical altercation then made him promise to stop his wagering ways or else she was leaving him and going back home to mother.

 

He agreed and also said he would announce that fact to his friends.

great story and made me chuckle but..................to end with "and I'll anounce that fact to my friends" is a give-away lol. If she's true to her word she'll be back with her mom & I'll give him 2-1 odds on that!

 gambling games

I've been tied up by the wife but it was for bedroom games. ????

 

[Woof999]

She didn't just tie him up. She's taken photos and allowed them to be made public.

 

Anyone would find this humiliating, but a Thai male....

 

Can't see this ending well, unfortunately.

Wimp!

Leave him now, in my experience Thai gamblers only stop when the money runs out.

Actually, too many will take bank loans or borrow from family/friends - doubling their misery.

Can she give this treatment as per order ?

As I say, until the money runs out..

There has been talk around meth re-education centers, though not seen any stories regarding success of these.

 

Gambling addicts do need more help and for it to be treated properly as an illness.

 

Their actions defy logic and likely this poor woman has reached the end of her tether with her husbands sickness destroying their lives.

 

Loans, loan sharks, theft and lies thrive.  I know someone with no job, no income (both as a result of gambling) and still 7 different new sharks were lending her money followed by threats. There is no out.

Seemingly extreme measures are necessary to protect addicts from themselves.

she might as well start packing the bags because he'll be back at it again in a few weeks at most.

Thai's cannot help themselves when it comes to online gambling games and football.

Shame and pity of pic.

If she's harbouring such thoughts, then she has probably made up her mind already to return to her mother's home, for whatever reason, her husband gambling or not...

Is that him?? - If a husband tied up his wife because she gambled, people would call for the police to step in...

In my experience they continue after the money runs out and get into a huge debt.

Exactly, till the money runs out. My meaning being their own money, money they've borrowed either through selling/ mortgaging land and /or vehicles, loan shark money, and money borrowed from friends and family.

There is zero chance of him stopping she needs to wake up and smell the coffee!

[WingFat]
