I am living in Hong Kong with my wife and we are classed as permanent residents there , although we have lived in Macau and Issan as well over the past four years . We have built our very own farang follie in a small village in Issan . There have been times when my wife has been up country and I have had work in the Pearl River Delta , these were difficult times and although I put a brave face on I was inwardly whinging and was missing her . Now I have made a job choice that keeps us together and Thailand is a only a few hours away .

"Lived with partner under 5 year"

isn't that a bit young for a partner?

In respect to the thread, It is unfortunate it could not be constructed to show the age difference in respect to the support%. (I know it can't be done without making it confusing, so not a criticism.)

My gut feeling is that the old + young relationships are distinguished by one partner being significantly dependant upon the other.

Anyway, bottom line is that if it works for some and they are happy, bless them.

Those noble sentiments of, if people are happy, good for them, rings a bit hollow when coming from someone who regularly judges and ridicules the relationships he imagines other people to be having.

Well that takes care of the normal people. Let the scrapping begin.

Didn't see the box for "married a Thai who turned Tom so married her brother who's now called Chompu"

It may make a difference to the final result if these scenarios are omited.

Just sayin'

Yeah it does look like the OP is trying to distance himself from these Chiang Mai friends of his....

Very good

I note the observations about the lack of options to accurately describe the convoluted relationship status of our more, ahem, frisky members such as BigJohnnyBKK and the self titled " throbbing member " Wana. You should get a Doctor to look at that Wana.

I'll start a thread next week called " Are You A Slapper ", that should be a busy one.

@phuturica, I tried to make the poll Asexual, ladies should be able to read it as it applies to them, and our gay members should also be able to do the same. Everybody is equal in a relationship but you know that already.

@david48 congrats on making your 1000th post, and I agree that people wouldn't move away from you in a bar.

@smokie36.......I'm trying to blank said episode out of my mind!!!!!

ps. The poll is making for some interesting reading.

Sorry to do the "you missed a bit" thing on you..

..and maybe a category for "faithfulness"?

Hahahahaha

@theblether - wish you'd expanded the dependant on your wife %s. Were you limited in the possible responses allowed?

One thought occured to me, I wonder how many wives of the respondents who stated they believed their relationships are rock solid (40%) are out shagging their "Brothers" or gik's on on regular basis...out of 32 votes cast, there must be a couple at least...

Back to the dirty old man debate again..

Well that takes care of the normal people. Let the scrapping begin.

Normal??

@bangkockney........yup, I was limited to the amount of responses, I tried to get as many valid categories in as possible

@ eek.........that will be part of the " Are You A Slapper " thread

66% of the "happily married category "

probably have a gik stashed away somewhere for "stress relief "

or else their wife has ....

Or perhaps not long enough. Sorry but if someone needs "stress relief" perhaps they picked the wrong partner or they are the wrong partner.

Are you serious ???

Are you serious ???

If you are asking me, I’d say I’m about as serious as I ever get on TV.

Just to clarify, I played for more than twenty years in Thailand before my wife saved me from my life of debauchery and from becoming an aging cliche. If I had wanted to continue scratching that itch I never would have gotten married. Its just not fair to do that to one’s partner in my opinion. Just because it is easy in Thailand doesn’t mean one is justified or that no one gets hurt.

Of course I sang a different tune while I was servicing the lonely young girlfriends of those cliches I mentioned earlier.

this puts a differnt light on things ,now all the juicy details are coming out !...

It's all about judgement and comparisons.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Mate...I sing the same tune as you....nearly note for note

An off topic post containing derogatory generalizations toward another member has been removed.

Faithfulness is a whole separate thread eek.....many of us would treat such a discussion warily.

I'll need to rack my brains to get the questions on that poll right. I think the phrase " morals of a Soi dog " would need to come into it somewhere

you would have to lower the bar more than that for TV members or the Soi dogs would complain .......

I need a "Managed to put of marriage for nearly 10 years, you tried son, you tried" option.

So, what?

They still could have voted right.
