My son is a policeman in Chiang Mai.

I told him about your concerns. My boy said, that if you, davidst01, do anything dishonorable to his chief of police lovely attractive young virgin daughter, they know where to find you. So watch it. His words not mine.

It's a shame she is no longer a virgin and is in Chiang Rai, otherwise a good try

How would you feel if you were your girlfriends father ?....

Incestuous !!!

Does said policeman like to wear white gloves and blow whistles at traffic intersections ?

He would feel like a big man wearing that uniform

I would be the person you are, just be yourself. Take it or leave, thats who you are.

If you love her, being yourself and she loves you back for it, then why wouldnt her Father feel happy his Daughter is happy. On you first meet, show him respect and ask to have a man to man chat.

Explain to him that you are very fond of his Daughter, but being [insert your Nationality here], you have been raised to seek approval to court his Daughter with his permission, if he does not give it, then you can walk away, one with his blessing and two with face.

Running like a love rat, makes you look weak and vulnerable, why wouldnt he crush you for fun.

Yeap, and have had the opportunity of checking the facts by myself (I life in their house).

Leave the country. fast!!!

Then sorry my learned friend I have no idea what sinsodt is, please enlighten me.

Perhaps it would be wise to learn little about Thailand before giving out advice about Thailand??? What you think?

He's got a English wife he is exempt from such issues.

I think asking your girlfriends Father if it would be alright to date his daughter, isnt exclusively a Thai Issue, but I am prepared to give way to your more educated viewpoint on account of not caring enough to care.

I still had to ask permission, fortunatly for me the answer was a surprising "yeah ok".

So your about 40 and you can't use google to understand ranks and your also asking for advice on TV. Really.

Troll.

i think it is better to ask on TV than to rely on google

at least its more fun and entertaining

My ex wives father was a Police officer in the Thai police and I never had a problem. I divorced her after 11 years and still did not have a problem

I dont see short of you raping her how you would have a problem

If she loves you and you love her Go for it and marry her

Good Luck

I did not think to ask about her parents occupations before as it did not really interest me.

I once dated the daughter of the Chief of Staff. When it was pointed out to me who she was, I began to appreciate her even more than just for her ways...

Just keep in mind that young ladies, and especially here in Thailand love to be the Drama Queen, if stuff doesn't go the way they want.

As far as i experienced here in this country, they don't have to be young to be like that

My girlfriend's older brother is a cop in Aranya Prathet, he helped me to buy REAL Marlboro ciggies at the market there, I only paid 80 baht for 200. Very useful

If you are really worried about meeting him, why not tell her the truth? Say you are a bit concerned that he may have a problem with you and ask her to tell him about you before you meet him?

That way you will have a bit of a heads up if he wants to kill you

The question is are you just in it for the fun, or can she be "the one?" A few years ago, I dated a sweet young thing, but then found out her father was a high ranking military officer. I found myself having less and less time to be with her, eventually bailing (in a nice way, of course). Wasn't worth the "potential" hassle.

It may be paranoia, but if you're just in it for the fun, it's just not worth it. Too many other (less dangerous) fish in the sea. And it should be noted that Thai girls who date farangs tend to be a little more unstable and whacked out than the average Thai girl, as many have reported. No telling what she'll tell daddy.

I dont mean to Thai bash but it really says a lot about a society when someone mentions their father is a civil servant whose duty is to protect and serve the general public and people's first instinct is of fear and trepidation.

'Be yourself' is good advice in case you were planning on being someone else.

Does said policeman like to wear white gloves and blow whistles at traffic intersections ?

I know someone whose father is a Commissioned officer in the RTP. He wears a white suit for ceremonial purposes with white gloves, and lots of medals. For what I do not know. I also found this on facebook and asked who the guy with the upside down smile was

The father is not aware his young daughter has a foreigner boyfriend his age?

My wifes brother is a policeman, and you could not meet a nicer person,

I had a similar problem with a previous relationship.

My youngest brother was a convicted rapist, my older brother had been convicted twice for drug offences, my sister had been done for prostitution a few times, my father had served 15 years for manslaughter and my mum was a convicted arsonist.

The thing that broke up the relationship was when I told my girlfriend I was a Celtic supporter.

I think she mistook Celtic for that brand new third division team The Rangers. Oh I forgot, The Rangers are almost unknown in Thailand unlike that last sixteen Champions League team Celtic.

and I have been with her for 7 years, she is 20 years younger than me.

How would you feel if you were your girlfriends father ?....

If it was a clone of me - I would love me to bits

How would you feel if you were your girlfriends father ?....

That would be incest.

Nearly spat my coffee out

WOW - 40 year old man, 20 Year old kid... You have got to be kidding me, are you smoking crack man!!! She is young enough to be your daughter, unless you have something to offer such as MONEY than I think her DADDY is not going to be to happy with you.

What do you think your doing, what do you think she is going to think of you when your 50 and she is 30, she being in her prime you being close to the grave; you think little princess is going to be happy sitting with you at the bar getting soaked or pushing you around in a wheel chair - HELL NO. Seen this so many times in Thailand it's histerical, she will leave you eventually for someone that has more money or just someone younger when you get older, God forgid you have children, you will most likely be dead before you can even finish putting them through school. Happens all the time here. It is not normal for a good Thai girl 20 years old to date a 40 year old man UNLESS it's for money or assets doesn't matter what country your from or even if your a Thai national. It's no more normal in the UK or the USA - her parents should run you out of their house immediately.

Corrected the age, I mistyped the number earlier....

Edited April 25, 201313 yr by commande

I have lived here 18 years.

I feel regardless of who, what, where or why?

Working girl, ''special'' girl, teacher, paid for girlfriend, mia noi or wife?

You only EVER need to ask yourself 2 simple questions.

Am I happy?

Can I afford her?

My father in law was a policeman and it didn't gave me any problems. But what I don't understand is that you are not interested in your girlfriends life. And even if you ask the question here your relationship isn't that good I think. Why not ask your girlfriend, why not meet her family? If your intentions are not good any father can be trouble. I would if it was my daughter. If your intentions are good just meet the good man and try to convince him you are nice and kind for his daughter.

What do you think your doing, what do you think she is going to think of you when your 70 and she is 35, she being in her prime you being close to the grave; you think little princess is going to be happy sitting with you at the bar getting soaked or pushing you around in a wheel chair - HELL NO.

Not that the OP actually said their ages were 40 and 20 but I'd be interested to know why you think the current 20 year age gap will transform into a 35 year one when the OP reaches 70.

Maybe you're a bit too close to his crack pipe

Of course, he wants his share of the $20 million after the divorce.
