People now think graham crackers are called that because of what they weigh. Ok, to keep on topic, one night I'm walking down Suk in Bkk and this gal approaches me, she looks good, I show an interest, and she then tells me what I will do: I will take her and her friend (who didn't seem very receptive), and we will get a different friend's taxi (parked at the curb) and go to another friend's restaurant, and kept on as I walked away. Do guys really fall for this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iamloki Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 3 hours ago, Nemises said: Disagree! My mate is/will be much better off for marrying a government worker for the huge health care cost benefits - will cost him something like 50 baht for any eventual operation, regardless of duration in hospital. She is also a nurse - perfect for his day to day care when required. She is also incredibly attractive, and oh, about 25 years younger. Good luck convincing him he is "much better off single". Just for clarification... My understanding is that it's only marriage to a Nurse or a Doctor who works at a Government Hospital that allows the farang the same healthcare that his wife gets. Marry any other Government Employee - teacher, court, the department of your choice - and there is no medical coverage other than the insurance you purchase. This was told to me by a nurse for a government hospital. Is this information false? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimTripper Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 (edited) It's people looking for money. Most of the Thai's you will come into contact with are broke skint. Just do the math on the wages here. Edited January 8 by JimTripper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NedR69 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Maybe you decide to contact the wrong women, or don't recognize any clues as to what type of person she is. Back when I was looking, any ink, big boobs, sexy pictures...were reasons to keep scrolling. You reap what you sow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desdeash Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I'm surprised at your experience. I've been using Thai dating sites for over a decade and have had only a couple of negative results. I've met many lovely ladies in that time, some of whom are still friends/lovers after years. Thai Cupid was a good site but I didn't like the cost. I've been using Tagged for a while now. I'll see a 1,000 profiles, like about 20 of them, get responses from maybe 5 and meet up with 2 or 3. I correspond a few times before coming to Thailand and never try to rush things or even mention sex. If the lady does either, I move on. Maybe a factor is that I'm only interested in women over 35. If you're looking at 20's and are over 60, well "go figger, trigger" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ignore it Posted January 8 Popular Post Share Posted January 8 "What is wrong with Thai women (on dating websites) in 2024" Well the main thing is that they are on dating websites.

Popular Post bkk6060 Posted January 8 Popular Post Share Posted January 8 It has changed over the past 10 years I think. Many more just ST. Also, many of these girls can make 50 k a month easy. And, a lot have other jobs they are getting paid. Why go with some guy for a relationship with a lousy pension or little money who will pay her a lot less. They have freedom and are making good money it is preferred. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 The same thing that is wrong with guys that go looking on those websites. If I am making a big purchase of goods, I don't go on the internet. I go to a bricks and mortar store where I can evaluate the quality of what I want, unfiltered. IMO the same applies to women. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddy42OZ Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 12 hours ago, StayinThailand2much said: Actually, they usually write: 'I am single', 'I want fun', 'Looking for friends', or just nothing, while posing as women looking for dates... But, yes, others writing in their profile: "I don't want to meet you in Thailand, but only your country", most probably look for suckers to send them the money for the flight ticket... Anyway, I'm seriously thinking to leave Thailand for good, possibly checking out the Philippines. What are you looking for? Why can't you find whatever that is in your own country? Why are you trawling around Asian countries searching for something that you would be better off finding at home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're looking at 20's and are over 60, well "go figger, trigger" A pretty honest assessment. I also find that dating sites, e.g., ThaiFriendly, are A LOT different in Chiang Mai vs. Pattaya. Girls in Pattaya are mostly for sale whereas girls in Chiang Mai are actually looking for relationships. Also, how old is the OP? Like you say, if he's over 60 looking for 20 yr old hotties, he's not going get anything serious from these girls. I've also met many of these girls. They tell me it's hard to find a good foreign man on these sites, most just want free sex. If you're a young, handsome farang guy, you might find more success getting freebies. But if you're an old dude, either look for someone closer to your age, or be prepared to pay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to disappoint, but it’s 100% true and can send you a photo of the happy couple (with her in uniform) to prove it. FYI 25 years age difference is not uncommon in Thailand. Your assumption of him being an “old man” is also incorrect. Care to elaborate on why “it’s a nightmare waiting to happen” or are you just jealous? I think the latter.

What is going on? Why bother with dating websites? There are a lot of good single women that you can meet anywhere. You just have to open your mouth and leave all expectations behind.
