Nope, the 'defacto' rule is broken the moment she indicates you are no longer welcome.

Which is why you need wife at immigration for extensions, they ask her if she still wants you around.

But that extension won't be in 7 days. He has a lot of time to stay, especially if the marriage was a legal one. We know very little of this story. If he paid 100% for that house, it's also his to stay in and a court date has to happen. They don't go looking to kick you out the moment a woman tries to kick you out of the house. He can stay until the divorce, and also longer if his marriage visa is still valid.............https://www.thaiembassy.com/family/divorce-in-thailand

What does that mean exactly? How can you see who has the money in this story? As a farang, it's a lot more likely that he's the breadwinner. There is a slight chance that she has money, the house, a job, etc, and he's living on his pension, but more likely it's the other way around. And if he has that pension or retirement, he's also more likely to have more than she does.

I thought you were good at understanding, as you always make such a long winding psychological drivel. Never mind, I will make it easy for you.

I meant that it´s obvious he don´t have any money, as he is living as a homeless. So, probably gives all his pension to his wife to handle. I also expressed that is too stupid behavior when living in a foreign country. Is it easier now?

Please don't try and patronize someone who's education is obviously far above your own. That you don't understand a lot of what I say isn't my fault. Foreigners have to have money in the bank to stay, which means he isn't giving it all to his wife. 

 

I thought you lived here for so many years and should already know this. I understand English is not your first language, but it is mine, so sometimes you get lost in the translation. 

 

Where , by this story, is it obvious he doesn't have any money? Nowhere. His money is most likely still in a bank, and since she kicked him out, his paperwork is likely still in the house, until he can be escorted by the police to get it.He's not considered homeless. He was just kicked out, and those that live here, foreigners, know full well how some Thai women can get, demanding, intimidating, manipulating, forceful, abusive, etc. He might not be the type who says, "no one's going to kick me out of my own house", because he fears reprisals by her family of friends, seeing he's a slight man. What do you consider the stupid behavior on his part, from this short story?

I'm living in the house until we leave. No one will kick me out of my house, and karma comes around when a woman does things to an innocent man. I'm not near the only one who has picked a disturbed woman here and paid a price, along with being threatened with knives, as I hear it a lot. As far as greed, eventually the ones who only look at men for their money will also pay a price when he leaves or dies, as they'll only have their middle aged self who no locals want, along with any children still in the house. But yes, they'll have that gold. Some here are ticking time bombs and their men haven't a clue until it happens.

true, yet as soon as the husband is dead they will be back on the hunt for a new farang husband.

True. Unless he was the problem and was abusive a drunk, or neglective or a combination of those,and that might warn her from trying again, but you never know, as some people don't care what they have, as long as it comes with the cash.

It is my house, as well as hers, but I can stay as long as I want, or force the sale and she will get a percentage, even though I paid 100% for it.

Good luck with your plans.

 

I hope you don't end up like the German guy one day. 

 

Oh yeah, I know it's difficult for you to listen to the truth but the house is your wife's house. Have a look at the back page of Chanote, it has the owners name

150 million homeless worldwide. 

 

A long time (more than one year?) ago, I read on 'Stickman Weekly' about a homeless Westerner (Brit??) hanging around on Silom Road at one of the Sala Daeng BTS exits... I think, I saw him (or, perhaps another homeless Westerner) sitting there just four days ago...

She tried to get the house, which would have been the worst mistake she could ever make, but the court doesn't give the house to a woman when the foreigner paid 100% for it and can prove it. I can stay here until I die if I want, but we'll be moving as soon as possible. It's on government land, so selling it would be very hard, so I'm trying to negotiate a price with her and her new husband, a foreigner living in Poland, to do what's right for our daughter and also what's fair. They get the house, will have one here and one in Poland, we can move back to Texas, everyone wins. If she doesn't play fair, the house will never be hers alone, and we'll just leave.

I should be so lucky to get kicked out of the house.

I had a German Neighbour a few years ago,  best Neighbour u could ask for, he bought a House in his Thai wife's name  bought her a Car, and her Daughter a Car, what he didnt know was the wife  was  a Gambler,  playing Poker in undercover places, she  gambled, and lost  the house  on a poker table, the Car too. she told him she was going back to her Village for a weeks holiday, a few days after ...... A Thai man arrived at his house demanding that he leave as the House was now his, (poker winnings)    she had already trasfered the house into his name,  the German man now lives in a Room, iI see him regularly, he looks like a down and out, unshaven,  messed up clothes, the whole experience appears to have damaged him mentally....She's never to be seen again...

You can build on land the government gives you, using it as you please, for a house or rice, cassava etc. You can own the structure, the house, but not the land.

They found the German national, whose name was withheld, distressed and without shelter. Preliminary questioning revealed that he had been abruptly evicted from his home by his Thai wife, leaving him with nowhere to go and no means of support.

Many things wrong with this story. 

How is he so helpless? Surely he has a pension or savings in the bank. Plus the 400,000 for his visa to stay with his Thai wife. 

Did he leave the house in her name only? Even if so, I do not think she would have the right to claim it all being married to this man. Joint property laws I think would prevent that. 

Regardless, where are his friends when he needs them? He lives in Pattaya, Jomtien with many foreigners, some of whom must know him and have befriended him.

Completely east to understand, dementia removes your ability to plan or think, let alone handle money or immigration. Not to mention it creeps up on you, those around you might notice the onset, but you won't.

 

Poor chap, I've watched many of my family succumb.

Don't worry immigration will provide him with a home at the IDC, until someone can be found to buy him a ticket to Germany. Kind immigration officers will even escort him to his flight to make sure he doesn't get lost on the way.

Nowhere mentioned he is on overstay, so why sent him to IDC?

My best friend, same age, 68, has dementia now, and lives in a care facility where he can leave but they're trying to help him and he's been there quite awhile. He can remember when we went fishing at a certain place 35 years ago, among all other things, but forgets things 5 minutes ago all the time, and when he was in the first place , after he fell and hit his head, he left and was wandering in traffic saying, they're keeping me a prisoner! He's adapted okay now, but his constant daily drinking led to his problem, along with falling and hitting his head while drunk. If this is this man's case, hopefully he has relatives they can contact to help with his possessions and to get him secured.
