Laos.

what's the dating scene like there?

 

isn't it illegal for a Lao woman to sleep with a foreigner unless they are married?

for those that are currently married to a Thai woman and have previously been married to a western woman, would you say that Thai women make the best wives?

 

I think the question is quite a broad one and depends on several factors.

 

when I chose a wife (Mrs. Smith) there were certain criteria that the successful candidate had to fulfill before she even stood a chance...

 

they were : 

 

1. Speaks good English.

2. Well educated (Master degree/phd)

3. Has a good, stable job.

4. No previous children from any relationships.

5. Has never worked in a bar.

6. Likes to have a laugh

7. Doesn't mind splitting the bill when we go out (or paying it in full herself)

8. Family aren't on the take (they have never asked me for a penny to this day).

9. No crazy knife wielding brothers or cousins lurking around the corner.

10. Loves to travel.

***(Bonus Points - Doesn't mind me sleeping around with other women/is a good cook)***

 

Those were my (albeit rather selective) criteria for a woman to have the chance at becoming Mrs Smith.

I found mine way back when and we have been married for years.

 

I can say that, on the whole, Mrs. Smith is an amazing wife and she is the reason why I am still here.

She has her faults, but don't we all?

 

Do you think that Thai women make the best wives?

do you have any selection criteria or will anything with a pulse do for you?

 

bob.

1. Speaks very little English, communication being a major deal breaker, and this was one

2. Village school, of course we know the results

3. One job after another, having depression this causes a lot to do this

4. 2 girls from two Thai men, both left, she subsequently gave the first one away at age 9, second age 10, got her back, now lives with first daughter.

5. Has never worked in a bar.

6. Likes to have a laugh

7. I paid for everything

8. Family aren't on the take, but expected some because I'm a farang.

9. Wielded a knife 3 times at me.

10. Loves to travel.

***(Bonus Points - Said she would cut it off if I cheated /was a good cook)*** Was the worst of all three wives I've had, although all shared the same "qualities", so I can't say much about Thai women being the best wives. Current girlfriend has been good for almost 4 years

Never dated there.  We met and live in Thailand.  We do have a house over there, and as we married in the UK, our marriage is not technically recognised in Laos, but we've never had issues going back there.

i've heard stories about the marriage police knocking on doors that are known to house mixed race couples and demanding to see marriage permits.

 

not sure how much truth there is to that but that is what i've heard.

My wife turned 44 yesterday. Skin wither than mine, 42kg and a very tight 😽. A real MILF without actually ever being a M like you losers are stuck with, so her body is still perfect. Better than a 19 yo

White skin isn't a turn on for most farangs, preferring the nice brown tan look. Fake white makes Thais look Japanese and not normal. And I'm pretty sure many of us here aren't losers stuck with an M.

There are pretty women here with white skin but I had much of that with western women and always liked tanned skin. Here it's natural, along with no body hair besides on the head.

I am not going to argue about preferences, but you claimed my wife's white skin is fake. Wifey's both parents are Chinese, so nothing fake about her skin. Here she is with her Thai friend.... for comparison purposes....of course

And some make mistakes in picking partners because of attraction. And these weren't women I bought, although I did pay more in other ways. Sometimes it takes a lot of weeding before you find the right flower.

I was talking about pure Thai women. Other Asians of course have whiter skin.

It is what you make it to be Bob, it is mostly up to you how you want it to be, and how you approach to find a lady, and you continue to be the one you where in the beginning. No lady want men who do not do what they promise, or change along the way. 

 

Women want security both in love and financial

mrs. smith's net worth when we first met was about 10x that of mine.

 

now we are at parity.

 

bob.

Many women from all over the world might be the best wives.

But it depends a lot on the guy they marry or refuse to marry.

There are some idiots out there who mess around with sleeping hookers, and then they are surprised when women reject them... 

IMO Thai women are better when they are girl friends, than as wives.

 

Not that I have experience of the latter, mind. It's more related to Thai family law.

You spent it all didnt you?  Sex drugs and rockn roll and she paid. Normally it is the other way around

I think it's more to do with the laws of the land than anything.

 

When allowed to take and move on, they will.

 

When provided with free government money and fake jobs, they won't need a husband.

 

Never get married in a country that forces you to endow her with all your worldly goods plus 19 years of child support, enforced by the courts.

The question should be...

Do you as a farang  make the best husband for a Thai lady.

Was there a road test 

Check to make sure there was no body work done

That all parts worked

That the engine was able to keep up

No difficulty inserting dip stick to check fluid levels

Yes.

 

I made sure that all the tunnels were sufficiently deep and that I could park my car in her garage nice and snug.
