Speak for yourself, I won't do "anything" for the love of a Thai woman lol Sounds like you're looking down on Thai women? Not sure how you managed to leap to that conclusion based on my post. There are limits to how far I would go "for love" regardless of whether the woman is Asian or not. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

technologybytes Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Really this is a sad story, because there are only victims. It's shocking what a man can do to try and win back the affections of a lady. It's easy to say, oh no not me, but this is a young man and we know nothing of the real circumstances. Anyway, now he will be sure to spend time behind bars and his wife won't even get to wear the gold necklace.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandman77 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Fake gold is cheap in Thailand Why he not buy this instead! Most uneducated woman would think its real proberbly one day , and then maybe recognized look same same but diffrent. , Iam not sure.. Another fine example That Many People in this Country has big problems to Assess consequences of a decision, and open there brain when it's to late! Neurologists would make the diagnosis, it is a chemical messenger in the brain problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmer Gantry Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 "Stupid is as stupid does" can happen anywhere. I live in Klong Sam and this is at least the third armed bank robbery in the past 18 months.One of them actually lived in a housing estate directly across from the bank he robbed.We are getting our fair share of happens anywhere.I am not having a dig,just commenting.

WhizBang Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 We will do anything for the love of a Thai women. Why? Love should be unconditional. If you have to buy 'love', then it is not really love. You are the perp are obviously Mensa candidates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
