Surin Man Marries His Dead Girlfriend

[happysanook]

this hits a note with me and my oft melancholic self... she was a very nice looking young lady... i don't believe, but one would hope she was looking down when he slipped the ring on......

[theblether]

Obviously unusual but romantic at the same time......I would say 10/10 for a farewell ceremony.

As for all the sexual cracks.......this is no more weird in my opinion than some women having babies to husbands long dead via sperm banks.

[arkom]

Yeah, saw this in the newspaper this morning, way too weird.

Agree, I feel bad for guy but way too weird.

Whew! At least he wasn't marrying a dead dude ...

[thequietman]

It's not a true marriage unless it's consummated. Just sayin'.

[MaxYakov]

Amazing Thailand !!! can only happen here/

Hardly. You overestimate Thai originality and uniqueness ... in this case, at least:

Sad story. You have to admire his commitment. Thais have a very strong belief in the afterlife.

If this became a legal can I marry Marie Antoinette, Cleopatra...or better still the Queen of Sheba ?

Didn't some Thai guy marry a Python not so long ago.

I want to marry James Dean and claim his royalty rights! This new idea of dead marriage opens up a whole delicious can of worms! Hey, in many countries you can marry convicts destined for execution. Not much difference, I say. Who do I propose to to woo Mr. Dean?

marrying his diseased girlfriend

the bride died in an unexpected accident

Quite an unlucky life she had.

I guess the reporter meant to write "Deceased" and not "Diseased"

Right Sherlock

[bridge2bridge]

VERY SAD.

I do admire him for keeping his promise though.

I bet a lot of Thai ladies would like a Thai man like this.

We all hope that not more people are diseased... ....

[GOLDBUGGY]

why wait till one has to go. you will never know when one will die...so do it now.

Because Marriage is very easy to get into to, but also very difficult to get out of. With 2 so far under my belt I speak from experience.

[blazes]

A rather bizarre story of true love.

"'til death do us part"

Also, a variation: "till breath us depart"

[Negita43]

The quality of journalists' English spirals forever downwards!

'Surin man marries his diseased girlfriend' !!!

She may well have been diseased before she was deceased but after she was dead she was certainly deceased and probably no longer diseased!

[TeddyFlyfisherDavis]

Most of the comments on this are pretty negative...and all of them make me sick...have a little heart ...ASSWIPES...

[peterdes]

Is that really true ? maybe again a guy looking for attention , if no

Probably great love but putting it on Facebook and YouTube ? He not need time alone now ? I know , I was there before ..

[gosompoi]

sweet gesture!

MY WIFE APPEARS TO DIE EVERY NIGHT JUST AS WE GET INTO BED. MAGICALLY SHE WAKES UP WHEN I BRING HER A CUP OF TEA IN THE MORNING.

Why do so many posters on TV have to be nasty about other people? Weird, possibly, but maybe the man really loved her. Have a heart guys. There are a lot of other stories you can vent your spleen on.

[MamaSan]

Man, it must have been SOME disease... (see first sentence)!

[Gers1873]

Unexpected accident?

Unexpected accident?

Who dies in an expected accident? Who writes this stuff?

Veil, Sarinya.

This being Thailand there are also expected accidents.

This happens everynight and you still haven't got the hint?

Just kidding.

You know it is sad that people like this are given the lime light and that people like all of you, calling this sweet and romatic, jump right on board with that mindset. You are all sick *******! Sometimes I feel like the last sane person on this planet. Stop promoting this and call it out as something that is just as screwed up as it really is. This man has screwed up the psyche of all of Surin, not to mention T itself. He should be locked away so that people don't turn him into some kind of celebrity. What a shame!

I took that as a satire piece. Cool.

[KhunHay]

Sad

Their love story live forever.

Who are you to judge the guy. He obviously loved her (10 yrs) and unexpectedly lost her before he forfilled his promise. I see it as a guy keeping his promise and a guy grieving and saying goodbye in the best way he thinks he can. Niether you nor anyone else knows the full extent of thier relationship or the intimate lives they lived together. Do not judge a person you have never met or know nothing about. Would it have been any different if she was clinically dead on a machine and he married her before it was switched off?

Umm...that is actually a picture of Marlon Brando.

and for other posters (not you of course Jingthing) I don't see why anyone needs to ridicule this man. He was with her for 10 years, longer than alot of marriages. I am sure he's grieving, and I don't see the point of making any fun of his final gesture. You make a promise...you keep a promise.
