Well 2 fooled you. You read this stuff 30 years too late. 

Yes, they did lie, and now I have to move back to the states so my daughter will have a better life than letting her stay here and suffer. Remember what I said. Most of the books were on how to relate to and treat women and children. The last 5 years were more on narcissism. Children were created, so that's a positive from a negative.

Fact is, we don't have any statistics, but I'm not convinced that the failure rates of these types of marriages are any higher than the standard marriage.

Maybe. Only 50% of people are happy.

I don't post bs like you do. You don't even have a Uni degree, can't spot 2 obvious narcs, live in a boring village yet claim to be smarter than everyone else. 

I actually post fasts. You post many opinions, so we could call that BS. A degree means nothing besides what you use it for. It doesn't mean you're more intelligent than a homeless man living on the streets of NYC.

 

People aren't obvious narcs unless they're malignant, like your buddy Trump. Covert means exactly that. When you're attracted to someone, which isn't a choice, you sometimes let your guard down. Ever wonder how many marriages end in divorce and how many stay even thought they're not happy? The two main things are narcissism and depression.

 

I don't claim to be smarter than anyone. A smart person can spot another pretty easily, which is why some here have trouble understanding others, and only go by their own blind opinions. I'm living in a boring village because most of Thailand is a boring place, most of it being much the same as everywhere else, with the beaches an exception. I'm only here because of my daughter, as this is her mom's village. You seem to keep forgetting things while I don't.

MOST German women are married to Germans

 

Well, obviously, given the absolute number sizes of the German and Turkish contingents, it is impossible it could be otherwise. But it is still striking how German women prefer the Turkish, Italian, Greek, Spanish look over their own countrymen. If the numbers were equal, German women might go for the Med guys disproportionately.

 

Again, the allure of the "other" is strong. This has genetic reasons no doubt.

Who told you that? In actuality, most people aren't happy much of the time, as money can't buy the most important things in life that do make humans happy.

 

Most of the time, we don't get what we want, but some get what they need and still aren't happy. Many reasons for this. Lifestyle, addictions, bad diet, bad partners, too much stress, living in a country without freedom, driving on roads that aren't safe, diseases, depression, narcissism and other mental illnesses, bad schooling, corruption and bad leaders, greed, harsh weather conditions, venomous snakes, insects, crappy wifi, power outages, and many other things we all suffer from at times.

You would have to ask  a large percentage of the population to get a true answer to that, and that still wouldn't be totally accurate. Yes, many people are attracted to others, but most don't act on it and end up with their own kind.

95% of what you say is just opinions. You don't even seem to know what a fact is. I gave you 3 examples above. Your posts contain 5 to 10 opinions on average.

No, blatantly obvious when you keep referring to things I've said before but forgotten so I need to repeat myself.

I met my wife through an agency, we never married until we had been together for five years. She has not admitted to having university degrees although there are a few trophies in the cabinet. I don't think there are universities up country outside of the big cities, but plenty of colleges, I do know for a fact that she was in fulltime education up until she was 23, so is there any difference to university degree's and college degree's if you live upcountry?

No. Higher education is higher education, it doesn't matter, even just a couple of years at a small college is a really big deal for an upcountry gal. It shows a huge amount of initiative, and it likely opened her mind to a dramatic degree. Kudos to your gal. She sounds like a keeper!

100% of what I say is factual, from research and evidence. Just saying what you said shows a severe lack of common sense and a very bad memory, plus a lack of research on any particular subject and going by your own opinions. Show me my opinions, and maybe if you researched more on what I said, you might see they are valid, with evidence to back them up. You have a bad habit of baiting, so I have to keep proving you wrong. I could ignore you, but it's fun when I prove people like you wrong. You also like to make up stats which don't exist, trying to prove your point to someone that knows more about the subject than you.

That's true of course, but most likely only because the numbers mandate it. If there was the possibility, ie sufficient numbers of "other looking" men, the women may go for the men whom they would consider the best genetic proposition. Or in their terms, the more attractive.

A question? How old are you? Maybe you haven't realized what I'm doing is exposing you more with each reply. You answer fast, without real thought, and usually with one liner baitings that everyone here has seen.

 

You are always making up your own stats with absolutely NO evidence of them being valid. You and a few others here are the usual suspects that always put thumbs down on others posts, thinking you're ruining their reputation, which means nothing here, and not understanding that we know who does this, which has somehow slipped your mind. 

 

You also think you've "won" days, somehow thinking this is some kind of accomplishment.

 

I don't lie. You certainly do or are so confused about what is real and what isn't, and can't help yourself just joining a discussion just to hijack it. You offer little in the  way of a good discussion, arguing just to argue. You certainly know you are wrong, yet can't just admit it.

 

You keep saying I'm making opinions, yet have no evidence to the contrary. You are only here to argue, without offering anything constructive, and sadly some still don't realize this. Look at your posts. EVERY one eventually has a thumbs down and it isn't coming from me or just a couple of others. I'm willing to bet 99% of those I get are from you and the few others that are just like you, The usual suspects who argue for the same reasons, use women, are heavy drinkers who drive afterwards, and have been proven wrong by not only me but a few select observers that have you figured out just as I have.

Language, culture and common interests dictate dating results. If I didnt speak Thai, like Thai food, like Buddhist women then my chances of dating a normal Thai is 1%.

I don't live in Thailand. I'm better educated than you. I've read 5 books in the last 14 days. I bought 2 books yesterday. I speak Thai. I don't date narcs. I don't put Britman down like you do. He's more happy than you.

There you go again, answering for everyone. I'm seeing the opposite. Look at the reactions to your posts and look at mine. Take away the thumbs down I get from you and a select other 4 or 5, and I'd rarely have any. You on the other hand have been called out by many members here.
