Did you guys ever found a 'different' Thai girl?

Light hearthed post... We all know the running joke of 'yes but my girl is different'...only to learn down the line that she wasn't that much different...so for experienced old geezers here, did you ever got a Thai girl who was really different ? And by different, i mean not obsessed with generating money, saving face, buying beauty products and whose conversation subjects weren't centered around food and gossips

I will take the Thai ladies any day, over the big fat, attitude, gobs. in the uk any day.

I love Thai ladies.

 

BTW,  my lady is different 

 

 

[clokwise]

Yup. And I married her over 20 years ago. Best thing I ever did.

Yes, very different from the the generilzed typical woman some members continuously describes here, and her family including brother, as well  uncles and aunties.

We all want money and to look good. That is how life is. Do your thinking with your brain not your organs and all will be fine. Learn how to say no.

I am very lucky to have met two very different Thai girls (according to your definition).

First girl, from Isaan. Left school at 14 (pregnant) and ended up working in a bar until my friend bought her out.

Her English was self taught.

She became my business partner from 2004 until she died in 2018.

Totally honest, diligent and hard working. I would trust her with my wallet and she became a very good friend to both my wife and I.

Second girl, university educated living next door, became my new business partner. 2018 to now.

Again, totally honest, diligent and very hard working. I also trust her with my wallet.

Both ladies were/are absolute gems.

Maybe not the relationship with me that you were looking for, but there are some really great people out there, if you look.

I was married to my English wife for over 20 years. She was (and still is) a lovely woman and a great mother. Work pulled us apart. I was working overseas and also trying to run the family car dealership in parallel. She had a very demanding professional job.

After divorce I was working in Thailand for months at a time and had a string of 'office girls' as girlfriends. I found them very superficial - mostly interested in shopping...

I met my second (Thai) wife when queuing in a 7-11. She didn't speak a word of English (I speak Thai). She was rather shabbily dressed and I assumed she was a typical rural Isaan girl. We got on well and spent a lot of time together but was over a year before the truth started to come out - I found bank books in her name will several million baht on deposit. Quite a surprise. Later, when visiting her family in Udon, I was driving on a rural road when a motorcycle pulled alongside us and three shots were fired at our car. At this point I realised there was more to my wife and her family than met the eye..  Its been quite a journey since then..

Anyway, we have now been together about 12 years. She has a UK passport. Partner in a successful hotel/restaurant in the UK and owns several small businesses and property in Thailand. She still 'dresses down' and seldom wears jewellery.

Yeah - my wife is assertive even to authority figures.  That's not a Thai trait, especially for women. 

[brewsterbudgen]

Yes my girl is different.  She's not Thai.

The brain is an organ.

Yeah, but it´s same for me. We all know that the stereotype that is always described in this forum is just BS.

Mine is like all others food, clothes food, friends, food

These are  important things not to try and change  if you want a happy life
