I was going to reply and then I saw the rather pathetic comment you have quoted. What a sorry individual that man is. I wonder if his other 17000 or so other posts were as worthless as this one.

simple1 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 One of the reasons it's difficult to meet a "good girl", is they are sick of being approached by foreign men looking for females away from the bar scene and have completely lost respect for them. At least this is what an attractive, mid twenties family member has told me when I asked her if she is interested in meeting a westerner. She also asked me why can't they meet women in their own country, what's their problem? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BookMan Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 If they don't have tattoos I'm not interested in them. Everybody knows all the best Thai girls have tattoos. They are also highly educated cos they can speak English very well, some even speak some German and Swedish too. Best of all they like to drink, smoke and play pool. What else could a man ask for? Don't forget the Russian speakers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heng Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Home ownership would be a good start (and by that of course I mean condo ownership for starters). Renters here are often viewed as people with no foundation, and foreigners are likely already viewed as those who have cut ties with their parents and immediate family, hence it's going to be a slight negative for most women (except for the segment that is just happy that someone else will be paying the bills... which tends to be the 'less desirable' group people seem to think is the only one interested in foreigners). Meeting people through work and school is probably a better bet % wise than randomly meeting people outside of those settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 8. All the "good" foreign men are in their home countries married, me thinks. I wonder if you really know just how right you are and just how much foreign women (and "good" foreign men) agree with you. Your comment is PERFECT. EDIT. I clicked your "like" button once. I'd like to click it a million times. You really are absolutely spot on. That's a tragic self indictment SiameseCurious, you have just condemned yourself as not being a "good" foreign man as you are not married and living in your home country. How sad. I am guessing that SiameseCurious is not a man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have asked about a certain exalted person's eldest daughter (or any number of hi so or well regarded Thai women)... Now before people proceed to list the many examples including their own of Farangs with "good girls" and the reason why that's untrue I'll just say I to have my own examples and I agree that as a general statement it is false and move on from this point .. I can't be bothered to go though that topic again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heng Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 (edited) "Good" women probably also find it a bit difficult (probably to their benefit) to compete with those women who have already moved in with you after the 2nd date. p.s. note to mods, feel free to pin that.

JurgenG Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 (edited) I have no problem meeting good girls, but it is much more difficult to find good girls who want anything to do with me. Same for me. When I arrived fresh from university I had no problem to meet "good girls" anywhere in Asia, including Thailand. 15 years later, with 20 Kg more and much less hair, it's getting increasingly difficult I actually realized something has changed when I met a one of our young interns one night in a bar. Suddenly, out of nowhere a flock of young nice (good) girls came to talk to us. I was happy, back to to the good old days , then I realized they couldn't care less about me and they were only interested by my younger friend ... There are still good women (they are not girls anymore) available for middle age men but you meet them in different places. Now the real question would be where are these places in Bangkok.

BigJohnnyBKK Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 I'm sure many Thai girls are asking themselves, Why is it immpossible to meet a good farang in Thailand? This is true. The problem I have with this whole "good girl" idea, is when people start talking about it's much more likely they will go for you if you own property, are a high-flying expat type etc. To me then we're right back to girls making or at least filtering their choices based on financial criteria, and that's where the line starts to go a bit fuzzy for me. In my case I don't want a girl who's been in the explicit sex industry, but simply for practical reasons, I don't like the bad attitudes and habits they're likely to pick up in that scene. But I don't kid myself that a fat old bald poor guy like me is going to attract young willing athletic hotties for any reason than improving their prospects for financial security. And by being realistic and selecting from among that group so motivated, one does find girls that by my definitions anyway are good, and probably meet the mainstream one here (never been involved in the sex industry). But as soon as you put class/wealth/education in there, and I suspect many people here would include that in their definition of "good", then you've lost me again. And since the basis for the girls moving in with me and taking care of my needs is purely transactional (at least to start with), then I've probably lost you as well, as I imagine many of you project your own definitions and experience and assume what's happening between us is just a variation on what you call prostitution. It all comes down to determining how you want to play the game and how you define your terms doesn't it, that seems to be much harder than actually finding the girls themselves. . .

NeverSure Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 In my hardened old ways I've come to see every encounter with a woman in any country as a financial transaction. Date? She get's dinner. Second date? She gets dinner and maybe I get something. I don't get something, there's no third date. All the while I'm being sized up as a "potential." Do I have a nice home she couldn't afford herself? Bingo, I go up one notch. No? I go down one notch. Could she quit her job and fly around the world at will? Bingo, ten notches. No? Not so good. Is she loaded but has a thing for me? Hey, now we're getting somewhere. But not far enough. We don't do that in Western society. At least not where I grew up. Can't feel like a man as a kept man. Get married? Give half away on the dotted line. It's a community property state. Pre-nup? Good idea if she'll go for it. Might cost you what you thought was love, too. Why should a Thai girl be any different? It's in their genes to choose the man who can bring home the bacon, everywhere in the world. For some that's the young, big and strong. For some that's the mature with security. In LOS, lacking big and strong or many prospects, let's go for the older with what's perceived as financial security. Or just sell it in a bar. Why the heck else do older Westerners move to LOS? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 (edited) In a brief answer to the OP its not nearly impossible to find a good girl in Thailand. Just look in the right places. No different to anywhere else in the world. And for the record, Thailand happens to be full of them. It always amazes me how delusional some males become after spending time here. men in their mid life parading their new trophy girl, thirty years younger, staight out of a go go bar and the guy wonders why the relationship didn't work. Go figure Sherlock! Edited November 10, 2012 by carmine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lukjaa Posted November 10, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2012 My opinion is that if I was to qualify a "good girl" as someone with a Masters, an income of 100,000 baht monthly at a minimum, educated abroad and comes from a wealthy family, most farang don't interest her as they bring nothing more to the table than what she has already. If you just qualify them as never having worked in the sex industry to be considered a "good girl" then you would have to expect the farang to speak fluent Thai in order to have a meaningful conversation. On top of that, she probably want's someone her own age level and how many 25 - 30 year old farang can speak decent Thai, live in Thailand and are single? Its no different than another country. Women want someone they can communicate with, feel secure and are attracted to. I think there are a real shortage of these kind of guys in Thailand that are single and looking to to meet a Thai girl for a long term relationship. I speak passable Thai and know many "good girls" who are happy to date me. The problem I find with all of them is that they want to marry after 3 months and have children and I feel they see me first as farang and secondly as an individual. They somehow think their past problems with Thai men such as infidelity or lack of understanding will be overcome with a farang when in fact we are all different and you just can't generalize to say all farang are decent and caring. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
