Once they've spent "a lot" of money nothing will change their mind because, like a gambler, they will chase that money with more money. They can't just walk away.

Which kind of proves the golden rule of "never spend any more than you're prepared to walk away from" ????

NEVER hook up with  Thai woman with a son from previous marriage. 

Or a woman with a "brother" from a previous marriage.

Without being specific about his choice for a wife I'd find a diplomatic way to warn him about getting into a long term relationship 'investment' here. Use caution and don't invest more money than he can afford to walk away from.

He will not listen, and she will gradually keep people like you away from him. He will be on web forums like this in 5 years, complaining about anything Thai.

If you want to get involved at all, then I suggest ask him questions like:

What do you expect from your marriage?

Do you think you will be happy there without speaking Thai.

Do you think she loves you and will take care of you?

 

The idea is that he thinks himself what can possibly go wrong. And maybe that he has expectations which won't be met.

Then it's up to him to think about it.

 

From experience if you get directly involved and try to tell him reality and the truth it is unlikely that he will listen. And he will likely accuse you of lots of bad things.

 

Don't get involved!

If he asks you any questions, try to answer them correctly. Not more.

Correct, the fist thing she will do is go through his phone and block contacts on social media, then she will make him stop using FaceBook, WhatsApp, Tinder, POF etc....he may even disappear from view and be kept in the dark about the real world around him.....Plenty of those people have have as you say appeared in 5 years complaining....

It's unlikely that he will see any connection.

You know, this thread is about this idiot looser who doesn't know what he is doing.

He on the other hand is the lucky guy who found the perfect wife. ????

And of course he will not be allowed to learn Thai language.

You could point out that at age 38 a Thai lady probably can't have kids.

Asian women lose fertility much earlier than western women.

That´s <deleted> talk! My wife was 39 when have second kid. And I know many more that had kids later than that.

A guy i knew from the UK asked me to give his gf some money when i was in Thailand and he was in the UK, he said he would transfer the money to me, which he did and then asked to meet his gf and give her the 20,000 thb. Well i find his gf ok, infact she was still working in the same bar that he had met her and she certainly didnt seem to have any issue with continuing her line of work, although not what she had told him and now i have to give her 20,000 thb lol.

 

What with it being a smallish town, the easiest thing was just to let her have the cash and carry on with whatever it is she was doing. I didnt go back to the bar as didnt want reminding of what i had done.

[farmerjo]

If he works on the 1/3rd assets in Thailand and 2/3rd's in the bank method he should be ok.

Did he ask you to spy on her and tell him what she does?

If not, then don't do it.

And if he wants that then still think twice if you want that.

[bokningar]

I understand that this might be outrageous and unheard of here.

But why not in a nice respectful and caring way tell him not to put all eggs in one basket. Make sure he has enough money back where he came from so he can go back if anything goes wrong.

He seemed very proud of his girl and definitely believed 100% of whatever she had been telling him...
