maximillian Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 my italian mate went to meet a girl who turned up with three friends. all they wanted to do was go to a restaurant - quite an expensive one. then they expected him to pick up the tab for all of them. as he had not invited or been told about the friends he wasn't going to pay for them but would pay for his date. she kicked off and was bad mannered so he said he wasnt paying for her either. he had the feeling it was a 'free meal' scam she/they had pulled before. Free meal scam ? C'mon... When I first met mine, we met in the restaurant of the hotel, where she worked for as an accountant. Six of her office mates came with her to take a look at me. They sat down and ordered for a dozen. After the meal I asked: "Who is going to pay for that all ?" It was the best joke for them ever. Big laughter. Well, the bill wasn't much more than 700 THB. And after four years I'm still with her. Happy as can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atyclb Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I was always chaperoned for the first month by mother and he vietnamese worker. After the first month it was ok. Now after 3 years together and one year married I ask them to come with us virtually everywhere because they are great company. You will find all good girls will do this. But if you want to meet a girl first time by herself then head to a bar. That usually works. "the good girl perception" or perhaps "misnomer" it is no longer the 19th century. lots of decent thai gals do not require chaperones. even upscale family educated ones. if there is mutual like and chemistry no need for friends/family/chaperone. it seems the 26 yo poster is one of the few that can attest to this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my GT-N7100 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app I'm 26, been here a year. Been out with plenty of girls, none of them brought their aunt along, I definitely don't think it is normal even in Thailand. I guess the moral is don't go to starbucks for dates! Agree 100% with you.

BritManToo Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Thinglish for an Aunt on their Mother's side is usually Sister Mother Me. Not "my friend you" or "my wife you" ? This is all way over my head. I've never been able to work out who is what to whom in Thailand. "Is that a real blood relationship, or are they just a friend from an older generation?" Pee/Nong, Lung/Baa, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So which one was it? Get the story straight! Dear David48, "mother-sister" is not a real English word. I am assuming that she meant aunt. Anyway glad yours went better than mine. Now I think, she did say she was from the northeast somewhere, not Bangkok. Maybe its more normal up there. Personally im impressed that I lasted 15 minutes!

EASYDOGG Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 A couple of years back i met a girl on TLL and she ended up sending me naked pics - I finally got to meet her a couple of months back when I moved to an area closer to her. I met her near her house, I was in my car and followed her to her house. She invited me in and then I asked if she would show me around - when we went into her bedroom, she reached behind her pillow on her bed and grabbed a purple rabbit vibrator and kissed the business end of it and then put it back!!!! Wow I thought, its going to be a good night! However, she said she had to go to work in the morning and asked me to leave shortly after that... how did that happen I still wonder... I just can't read the signals with these girls, guess she was happy with the rabbit and wanted to show me. She was a working girl. She needed you out of the picture so she could go and score a paying fella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnsy Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I met an Issan country girl on her turf and yes mother, aunty and nieces were all present to approve or disapprove, luckily they approved. A few days later the young Issan lady in question decided to stay with me at the resort I was at and she informed me that I needed to book a room at the resort for mother, aunty and nieces so they could all be close at hand to make sure she was safe whilst spending the night with me. There were indeed some very strange moments during this time but all went reasonably well, I just had to keep reminding myself that we are not in Kansas anymore Toto. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maipenraika Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Mother sister, cousin brother,typical in all Asian culture to describe a female relative,a little different to " sister or brother " when they're friends. As for bringing a chaperone,not so long ago (in the big picture) woman in the west did it to, nice girls always had chaperones. What I don't understand from these chat rooms is most of you I presume are in a relationship with a Thai or having relationships with them;however reading these forums many of you talk in derogatory terms about the Thais. Why stay,why not leave if you're so bitter & disgruntled 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KIWIBATCH Posted April 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2014 My first date with a thai girl went along similar lines........we met on a bus...I invited her out after chatting during the journey....she chose KFC...at a set time and date. I arrived earlier (as you do) they repeat they arrived later (as they do)....her, her mother, 2 aunties, and an obnoxious (as it turned out) 9 year boy. Time to order......well to cut along story short..I don't think they eaten for 2 months.......we occupied two tables.....her mother, me, and the date at one...and the aunties and obnoxious at the other....obnoxious was in good spirits...crawling along under both tables at hi speed. After the first round of the "colonels" fine fare...it was time for a top up (I was ......more pots of chicken and burgers please....topped off with icecreams all round. I paid for all of this out of politeness (I guess - at the time being a newbie to Thailand and knowing the basics of "Thai Kulcha").......from memory around 2900b Date and I had made small talk (in her broken english/and my broken thai) during all of this feeding frenzy whilst aunties/mother had continuously checked in on progress with my date using Thai speak from the next door table when their mouths weren't full. Time came to vacate...date had to go home early as "obnoxious" was "tiread"...read tired. Got an sms from date the next day telling me the aunties didn't think I fitted the bill and that was the last I have heard or seen of my first date. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Showbags Posted April 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2014 <script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script> I had a date with an Islander (Polynesian) girl who brought her aunt as chaperone. The evening went well. Aunty didn't intrude into the conversation, but Girl did address her from time to time. Late into the night, driving them home, Girl wants to use a phone booth to make a call. Sitting in the dark in the car waiting for her, Aunty makes a move, and we did it in the car. Girl comes back, and all is normal...... Was it a long phone call ? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Loles Posted April 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2014 This happened to me in Laos, and was a second date, cause the first was when I saw those beautiful girl in vientiane's central park. She was an university student, 18-19 years old. Didn't speak too much English but enough. I told her, I will visit north Laos and come back after 5 days and agreed with her a next date. Of course she came to date with her: best friend girl, big sister, the big sister's husband, and a neighbour English teacher old lady. Huhhh. When I recognized the situation I wanted to flee from the spot like the Thai driver the accident spot . So we sat in a sweet-shop and every 5 minutes they gave me a cross-question, like this: and what is your wife's job? how old is your wife? does your wife like the asian food? does your wife has a dog? is your wife a christian? does your wife use a motorbike? I answered to their every question I have not wife at all, they smiled, talk other, than within 5 minutes came the next "wife" question. It took around 2 hours, I paid the bill (but those was a really cheap for 5 people) than I told I have to go back to my guesthouse but tomorrow we do meet again. Of course I didn't go. And when I dropped back the rented bike the owner girl told me, she got a call from them, cause they saw the sticker in my bike !!!!!! and asked her: did this man arrive to your shop alone or with WIFE ...... Now I laugh for it, but before I cursed my bad luck cause those gilr was an amazing genuine beaut. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
