PomRakBKK Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 .. at least 10M baht in cash and some gold as sin sod and brand new bmw for the bride. Obviously she is not a bar girl, but i kind of lost it a bit to be honest. Just a regular girl with a normal job. My marriage plans are officially off the table. What some blokes pay to put themselves in prison is mind blowing.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigJohnnyBKK Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Note the cash is mostly likely 90% for show, will remain on the couple's side, he would've bought her a car anyway just icing on the cake. Wealthy groom, keen for big face all 'round. What nationality? And why not? It's his money, he's probably head over heels let him enjoy the fun while it lasts.

Wealthy groom, keen for big face all 'round. What nationality? And why not? It's his money, he's probably head over heels let him enjoy the fun while it lasts. The sin sod wont be returned according to the girls at the wedding. The groom was a singaporean national. Shockingly, well more logically all the girls told me their families would at least expect the same on their wedding.

TommoPhysicist Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 The groom was a singaporean national. Surprisingly (from what I've seen) Korean and Singapore males seem to be even bigger suckers than western males. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heng Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Quite the opposite in my experience. Eastern Asian integration here in Thailand usually works out better for all parties involved, as it's easier for them to acquire Thai citizenship.... which naturally puts marriages on more equal footing. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJohnnyBKK Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Surprisingly (from what I've seen) Korean and Singapore males seem to be even bigger suckers than western males. IMO more likely they can simply better afford being so extravagant. They're also placing their bets on horses more likely to finish well. . .

GreenSnapper Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 The groom was a singaporean national. Surprisingly (from what I've seen) Korean and Singapore males seem to be even bigger suckers than western males. That's why you should marry an Indian chick. Then the girl's family pays!

Beetlejuice Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Well i posted it course i think 300k USD cash, some gold and a car is a bit over the top just to get married. If anything ever happened to the old dear indoors, than there is no way I would consider marrying again. I would want a lady who wants to be with me, because I’m me, not someone who would be on offer to the highest bidders and these days it appears to be business first and pleasure afterwards. I think these guys are either crazy or desperate, but it`s their lives and good luck to all who sail in her. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did i hit a nerve or something? No the obfuscation from opening posts becomes stagnated and monotonous,and tends to send the said topic only one way,usually closed or into discussion of bar girls and prostitution,just like the recent one where by the OP wanted to know what was the best option for a highly successful lady from Issan who wanted to buy a property in Pattaya,it turned into a free for all,and in fairness it seems like some posters deliberately bait others,after all this is an anonymous forum and we can all make stories up at the press of a keyboard. Sadly it drags the forum down IMHO,and it needs not,when opening posters could offer slightly more insight from the word go. Good luck to all involved.

jacktrip Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Can anyone enlighten me as to the reason for this particular thread,is it to highlight the money factor,or the She's Not A Bargirl factor. I've been to many a wedding in the west and here,but never felt like discussing it on TV. And here's me thinking that the cricket was depressing. Next. its people who dont live in thailand posting stuff about bar girls and how we are suckers etc. as far as i can tell its guys who wish they were here, or who have an axe to grind moral or otherwise. the topics get posted frequently and all have a similar flavor.

mike123ca Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Quite the opposite in my experience. Eastern Asian integration here in Thailand usually works out better for all parties involved, as it's easier for them to acquire Thai citizenship.... which naturally puts marriages on more equal footing. :-) Is that true that Asian men get special treatment like women when its comes Thai citizenship?

Well I live here and if you listen to other Thais talking to your partner its one of the first questions to be asked, usually, where do you work followed by where did you meet him? I have no axe to grind, can only comment from what I have observed, most normal Thais can smell a bar girl and want nothing to do with them. The above may not be PC to your way of thinking but its the way normal Thais think, most farang forget you will be judged by the company you keep here, just my observations.

I don't know about 'special treatment' but it's much easier to get an Asian into your house registry than someone who might not pass for Thai. And after 10-15 years of 'living under the radar' here, your Thai is usually passable enough to be a member of an immigrant Thai family and to pass the few questions a 'friendly' district office clerk might ask when you're getting them their Thai ID card.
