I think the OP is actually sven goran eriksson and he posted after mexico lost to honduras..............he needs a quick escape from mexico and is feeling guilty at having to leave his g/f.

A sucker born every minute.

Hi all, this is a serious thread. I've heard from several farangs, with thai girlfriends from poorer backgrounds, who face the moral dilemma of wanting to move on to other relationships but they still have enough concern for their former partner to not want them thrown back into the ruthless life of being poor and thai and alone. If the girl isn't particularly interested in finding new love or a new bf, I've been wondering if adult adoption isn't the solution for the two people...

No need to "adopt" or sign anything unless you want some kind of control over her. Just keep transferring money into her bank account every month - 10,000 baht would be more than enough for a country girl. I understand how you feel and hope you can move on from this failed relationship.

JetsetBKK you are as equally pathetic as the OP. What misguided world are you all living in. If the relationship is over, its over. Chances are it is over because she got a better offer from some other equally naieve farang. I am sure the TG will be laughing all the way to the bank with her new boyfriend, or even better the shady thai BF who has been lurking in the background all along.

Adoption, sending money each month ........ for <deleted>#ks sake, no wonder so many Thais think we are stupid buffalos. I am starting to know why...

I wonder who you were in a previous incarnation at Thaivisa . I bet you won't last much longer.

The OP has genuine feelings for the girl and wants to help her out. You know nothing of the history between them and can only relate to your own experiences, which I'm afraid says more about you than it does about him or me. If he can spare the money, why not.
