Lol! This question always makes me laugh

Plenty of self-denial when it comes to the truth.

The truth (and this might hurt) is NO.

Wanna know why? You go first and then I'll tell you.

Yes. Whatever you say "later" is meaningless hyperbole, you do not know either me or my wife or our situation or relationship. Maybe your wife/GF hates your guts, but that's your business - maybe you attitude is the reason

Yes. Both of them.

No they love me, but they hate each other.

Ha

It's all about understanding the mentality of Thai women who marry or go with farangs.

It's about coming to terms with the fact that they've usually been "done over" or "rejected" or "cheated on" by Thai men.

It's about the fact that they're usually divorced with kids. Or poor. Or have zero opportunities in life. Or have passed their sell by date.

It's about the fact that they "switch over" to farangs as a last resort.

It's about the way in which they learn to rationalize things and accept that love is less important than practical considerations.

Like I said, this topic always elicits plenty of self-denial

So what about yours all of the above?

Mine was hot definate not a "past her sell by date". I guess the reason she chose me was money lol. Or she wanted to save me from myself!

Nice Trolling

Do you have a Thai Wife/GF ? If so then you are in the same boat as the rest of us.

.................. and I thought she loved me

Nice Trolling

I'm not trolling.

I firmly believe that what I've written is the truth.

If you have a Thai wife or GF, she very likely does NOT love you.

I'm not saying this is necessarily a bad thing. But I do believe it's the truth.

You may not believe me, but such is the power of self-denial.

Brilliant debating skills, if you don't agree, then you are in denial, and I don't mean an Egyptian river.

The love check is very easy here. Just see how much money leaves your wallet at the end of

the month. If zero, then you have love. If a lot of money leaves , you have a rent a wife ........

It's about coming to terms with the fact that they've usually been "done over" or "rejected" or "cheated on" by Thai men.

My wife never had a boyfriend before me.

It's about the fact that they're usually divorced with kids. Or poor. Or have zero opportunities in life. Or have passed their sell by date.

My wife was too busy for boyfriends due to studying for her degree and working part-time.

It's abut the fact that they "switch over" to farangs as a last resort.

She didn't switch anything.

It's about the way in which they learn to rationalize things and accept that love is less important than practical considerations.

You have amazing powers of perception and I have too. I'm guessing you've been hurt recently and decided all Thai ladies fit nicely into your negative theory.

It's good to let it all out then you can finally move on.

Sighs to self. Another does she love you or your money topic. Might as well pull the petals off a flower. She loves me, she loves me not......

Yep, like I said you know nothing. Met my wife straight out of private college, she was 19, I was 25. Her father was a naval officer (now retired) and her mother was a business owner. We have been married for 16 years, courted for 2 years before that. For most of our marriage I worked and she looked after the kids (2 of) - now she works and I home school our kids. Neither of us came from poor backgrounds; she was privately educated from birth and attended tertiary education in the UK. She speaks fluent English and works internationally on a contract basis (currently in the UK working one such contract). She has never had a Thai (or any other except me) boyfriend (she was not allowed a boy friend - I was introduced through family - via an old school friend and business partner, her uncle - also Thai of course) - she had rejected 2 approaches from local sino-Thai families for marriage to their sons, her class mates (she is 1/4 Chinese - hence the arrangement) - we were chaperoned for most of the two years we courted for. We have been married 16 years - still love each other very much - and have never cheated nor had a break up in that time - we have two teenage daughters. She now earns the money whilst I look after the family. We are happy.

Please do not tar us all with your brush - some of us do not fish in the gutter, so catch better fish!

What a sad individual

@ wooloomooloo

Your post concerns me.

You say: "My wife never had a boyfriend before me." So, is her family poor? I mean, would a young Thai girl from a wealthy family be allowed to marry a farang? The answer is No.

You say: "She didn't switch anything." This concerns me a lot.

You say: "I'm guessing you've been hurt recently". No. I just understand the way things work. And I'm not in self-denial.

I understand the dynamics of cross-cultural relationships better than most people.

Wolf, it's Darren, no need to return his howl, it provides food.

I'm not trolling.

I guess this is one of those times where we'll have to agree to disagree.
