noob7 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 The problem of the OP is not the Sin Sot, it's that he got the girl pregnant and that he has to assume his responsibility. Well, I assume she wasn't raped, so she should take responsibility for her own "actions". Why is it always the man, that have to take the responsibility, what happened to the gender equality? Eh, you are in thailand. Since when men are responsible for making a girl pregnant? The sex drive is responsible, but not to control, anyway. Next Lady, please!

wildorchid Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I want make sure you know the truth about thai culture sin sod, if your girlfriend has been married before and divorced, or had a child before, or bar girl then you DO NOT need to pay ANY dowry (sinsod) but if she normal lady but little or no education you have to pay about 50,000- 100,000 baht, or if she normal lady with education university and possable land in the family then you will have to pay sinsod 100,000- 300,000 baht. but if the family is very highly educated and high satus in there village or city then the sin sod can go to quite a high amount,,, The correct way is that the money for sinsod is you have to bring for her parent/parants on the wedding day for show, but what i don't understand is why she is asking you pay before the married day? you should ask her the question and she should be able to give you an answer, BUT BE SURE SIN SOD IS ONLY PAYED ON THE WEDDING DAY OR AFTER IF AGREEMENTS ARE MADE, NEVER BEFORE!!! I am a thai lady and this is my culture so yes I know what I'm talking about. I wish you good luck Why would a Thai lady who is a bar girl be excluded from Sin Sot if she hasnt been married before or by the same token having a child out of wedlock...being married before makes perfect sense but the other 2 dont ? THE KEY WORDS ARE THAI CULTURE!!! Sin sod is paying for to marry a good woman and join with thier family, the idear behind it is a man works hard for many years to save enough money to pay sin sod for a "good woman" that you can be proud of and she will have you chilren and you name and your houner, but if you are ok with haveing a prostitute for your wife, mother to your children, have your name, then ok go ahead pay for her but that is not thai culture. Thai's have a saying, If you want to know if the lady you want to marry is good then look at her mother, but if you want to be sure then look at her grandmother, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish you good luck I have experienced the same myself.My ex-wife comes from a middle-class family,but had "gone bad" in a period before I met her.When we married I wasnt asked for a sin-sod at all,but when her "good" sister got married 2 years later the damily received a substancial sum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manly100 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Just front your girlfriend and her family and tell them that you will not be getting married just yet, perhaps in 2 or 3 years when your better placed. Not good enough for them? walk away. Then it will be good enough for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoDangChard Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 This is really too personal to get involved with, but sounds like you need advice. So without knowing your situation, and only because there is a baby involved: A: Never borrow money from a loanshark, you never know where this will end. B: Dont pay them 250.000, they dont need as much, not even as loan, because you will not get it back. C: To bee fair promise them a reasonable amount that you can afford. D: But only if shee agrees to a DNA test. Half the money before the test and half the money after birth. D: Im sorry to say that if she forces you to pay 250.000 and 2 months in advance then she doesnt love you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heng Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 (edited) What's sad is when you see a guy in this type of situation... who then loses his shirt, home, car, etc.... cuts ties with said woman.... and the proceeds to get the exact same type of woman to start all over again.

Thanks again I can say as a father that you are making the biggest mistake of your life if you are planning to abandon your child. Be a man. Stand up to your wife. Talk to her parents. Demand respect from her and them. If she wants to continue living her life separate from you, then allow her to do so. This does not mean that you cannot play a role in the child's life.

It's a no win situation. One can see guys in this situation all over the place. You stay, you're a slave to the desert... and no amount of water (unless you're Orange County or an Emir) will do anything to change its nature. You run, you're a coward (and likely giving your child the closest thing to a death sentence there is). I'm glad I chose beachfront.
