Sister-in-law’s D-Day

[AustinRacing]

Her husband of 2-3 years arrives this weekend. He’s a Thai factory worker in Korea. She’s staying with us for a while. I don’t usually ask detailed questions about her family. I asked the wife “I bet she’s excited to see him again after such a long time”. Wife replies “ they haven’t met yet”. Their story is the parents of the couple organised the wedding (???) after they had met online, both from nearby villages in Issan. Both no spring chickens with kids. He naturally sends her money every month. 
In a way I thought of those poor farangs who end up sponsoring Thai women while abroad. At least in most cases the farang has test driven the goods, at least once. 

In this guy’s case he’s got Nothin’ yet. I may provide update after their first encounter tomorrow. They plan to drive back home to issan for a month before he heads back to Korea.

No matter what happens in this relationship keep your distance.

Don't get involved in any way, shape, or form.

Sounds like you have a really boring life.

That comment appears unjustifiably judgemental.

     And don't try to understand this, it's very Thai.

Yeah just interesting situation. No other intentions from me. I was just fascinated to learn of them being married and all that and yet not have met after such a long time.
