Surin Man Marries His Dead Girlfriend

[Jingthing]

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

OMG, you're right. I'm so embarrassed. I'll try to make up for that:

He left a pretty corpse. What else can you say?

Amazing Thailand !!! can only happen here/

It's one of the nice sides of Thailand.

Imagine how the guy feels.

I think it's quite romantic and a good way to get closure.

[Jingthing]

What would be an appropriate gift for the wedding party?

(lighter fluid?)

[pedro01]

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!

Why?

It's not as if he's consummating the relationship.

He promised to marry her & he did that at her funeral.

How is it sick?

Looks more like Brian Clough to me...

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?

That is not Mr. Dean

edit sorry posting before I got to the next page.

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

Saw it in my wife's facebook last night, from what was written there, they were due to marry the day the accident happened. Sad turn of events, it does appear to be a strange thing to do, but to each his own.

Closure, important in mourning which also explains a lot of his behavior as no doubt he's still in shock but only someone who has loved and lost so suddenly, tragically and young would understand, all others are merely ignorant, jaded or both...

My feeling is he followed through with his promise and I see nothing wrong with it, it's just a ceremony confirming his love for her in life much like the one he is having for her passing now.. Sadly too many twisted minds here..

Absolutely, the only sick people I see are mostly posting on this thread as they have obviously not had such a tragedy befall them in their graced lives.

Exactly as per my post as well, you beat me to it but we essentially said the same thing.

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?

Unexpected accident?

Unexpected accident?

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

Veil, Sarinya.

He means: "She died unexpected in an accident".

Or what else you are thinking?

Stop these poor comments...

At least you're on topic then and not going off on a completely unrelated tangent.

Maybe I'm a cynic, actually I know I am one, but this seems like a put up to me. Reads too much like a romantic fantasy.

Whatever it may be you can be sure he'll be getting tonnes of attention from the ladies now for being sooooo sweet.

[OzMick]

After my previous marriage to a Thai, this does seem to have some good points. Would marrying a dead girl entitle you to a marriage visa?

[OzMick]

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......

".....hope she was looking down......" Not possible, she was DEAD.

Hmmm you do know how he died ? I don't think too pretty. (sorry JT).

[Estrada]

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.

Must be catching!

Not only that, this is the one exception where a foreigner can own land, if she were to have left the land to you in her will or by her dying wishes. Her wishes are honoured even where land is left to a foreigner.

[geriatrickid]

How did she confirm "I do"..??

They waited for the bloat causing the arm to raise in an affirmative gesture?

[Debothai]

This is creepy.

[redbicycle]

May sound ridiculous to some , May look stupid to some , May seems impulse to some but to me at least he is a human ..........

[elgato]

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

Ack!

[nong38]

Marrying a woman who does not talk to much and does not disagree with you has some merit, however, I think the B.O. overtime might become a trice overwhelming and just might come back to haunt you !

A rather bizarre story of true love.

"'til death do us part"

No... "Till BEYOND death do us not part"

Very very sad.

[sausageandmash]

This is sick beyond belief. It's like something out of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I knew people were inbred up there, but this is almost like some kind of twisted joke. I think it's probably just a publicity stunt to get some money from the newspapers. It reminds me of that guy from Isaan who married a snake. Cuckoo!

Let me guess your a bereavement and grief councellor. What would you suggest, a small room watching video's of thier loved life together with a case of whisky and bottle of sleeping tablets? Let the guy grieve as he feels fit.

[sausageandmash]

a ouija board would be a great present

What would be an appropriate gift for the wedding party?

[sausageandmash]

Please think about what you're saying. The man married his dead girlfriend. Firstly, it shouldn't be allowed and secondly, you shouldn't be condoning it. Marrying a dead person is wrong. Full-stop.

Sad but touching story. I wonder if there will be a honeymoon.

A bad joke.

[Jingthing]

We've all heard of lesbian bed death (google it) but this story takes the wedding cake!
