edwardflory Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Getting divorced and wanting to get engaged. Some people just never seem to learn from life's lessons. WELL SAID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukguyinthai Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 You are a married man working through divorce. If your new wife to be, knows this,she should be content to support you.Not rush you into any level.And you don't need to be a married man and an engaged man at the same time. End one then start another like you know you should. Does your wife or any of your family know what you are up to. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbamboo Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 One question. WHY? The only possible reason I can think of (apart from the OP spending too much time in the sun) is that the girl is putting her foot down. Which of course is the best reason not to get engaged in the first place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
German Viking Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Marry in haste, repent at leisure. Here's some slightly constructive statements: are you nuts? What is the bloody hurry? Are you addicted to being married? Did the last marriage mean as much to you as last years fashion? Normal people go through a period of grieving and adjusting to a life without the ex. Good or bad, it takes time. What went wrong with the last marriage, and more importantly, what did you do (or not do) that led to the divorce. Has your behavior and outlook changed? You will be "on the rebound" whether you believe it or not. And please don't say "this one is different". Are you? Have you grown from the experience enough so that you won't be a "serial spouse" unless that is what you want... Sorry if I was implying that I was looking for advice on my personal relationships then I wasn't. Stick with the title and gist of my OP please. Nobody can give advices to fools, caused they don't want to listen. You are a hopeless case, do what you want, up to you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozsamurai Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 The only possible bearing it could have that I can foresee, is on future visa applications for moving back to your home country, although relatively insignificant. When did you meet, when did you start a life together, provide divorce cert for previous marriages etc.... Overlapping there is not cool! Don't be in a rush is my advise, if you think she might slip away on you, then I wouldn't be marrying her anyways! Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emster23 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 "Being married to 2 women at the same time (Bigamy) in most countries is considered a Crime Against Humanity"." BING!!! The light went on (first for everything I guess). Simple answer: Convert to Islam. They are allowed to have more than one wife in Thailand. My landlord back in Phra Kanong days had two. Which I figure is two too many, but that's just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BING!!! The light went on (first for everything I guess). Simple answer: Convert to Islam. They are allowed to have more than one wife in Thailand. My landlord back in Phra Kanong days had two. Which I figure is two too many, but that's just my opinion. True that Moslems can have more than 1 wife (up to 4 I think) plus Concubines (Mistresses). But this right is not just reserved for Moslems or Islam. In many West African Countries, or should I say most, they can have more than 4 wives. In Papua New Guinea there is no limit. Only a limit to how much money you have. But if they want to immigrate to the Americas, or Europe, they are only allowed 1 wife. So they have to ditch the others and call them aunties or something else. But like us, they can still have as many Mistresses as they like. As long as they don't get caught. My point was that Bigamy is a crime in Thailand, which I assumed he would get married here, and therefore he could be charged here for it, or back home. Thailand of course is more accepting to this. But still under Thai Law you can only have 1 Legal Marriage, so the others don't count here either. If he is Moslem and from Saudi Arabia, then he has committed no crime if he gets married again in Saudi Arabia. But judging from the OP post he isn't from there, or Moslem, otherwise he had no reason to ask,. In Western Counties, a second marriage doesn't count anyway, and this second marriage would be considered annulled. So even if they got married from the High Priestess, it wouldn't count more than a hill of Beans if he was already married at that time. So what is the point of getting married again when it doesn't count, no matter how long you lived together before you were found out? The only thing you would accomplish by doing this is possible jail time or an angry X-wife going after your future paycheck. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poppysambo Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 My perspective as a woman for what it's worth. Personally, I would prefer my man to be divorced before we were engaged. This gives me a sense of closure of his previous marriage rather than feeling like out with the old, in with the new. If he's taken the time and trouble to finalise his previous relationship then I would feel comfortable that he knows how to follow through. Speak to your girlfriend, ask her what her thoughts are. If you love each other and there is no rushing into the relationship and you know it's headed to marriage, what's the rush to have a ring. You can't be married straight away anyway and marital commitment is a state of mind. Good luck with whatever you choose Di 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you asked for advice/thoughts, and to be honest my thought was . I assume you have known the new lady quite a while I hope..... If it were me, I would get the divorce out the way before you open your mouth regarding other females. You can get divorced in a few minutes if your ex is willing to attend. If she is not then I fear you might have trying to get divorced as here everyone knows everything via the grapevine.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maroon Watcher Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 The Rules of Engagement are: Marry in haste, repent at leisure. You don't have to get married to have sex, a relationship, even a baby... I have every intention to remarry but am concerned that the divorce will drag on. Meanwhile the gf is eager to move to the next level as am I. Just worried about legalities. Appreciate all advice.

Just worried about legalities. Appreciate all advice. I would think a troublesome divorce might be more troublesome if one part gets engaged during the divorce negotiations; at least if the other part finds out. However, just give a ring and the promise, and keep it under the radar. On the funny side: A friend of mine met a girl here – well, picked one up from a bar – the next morning the girl said they were engaged, he told and continued, that the engagement lasted for 3 days… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunPer Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 That was what I first thought but I'm clueless about Thai laws so felt compelled to ask here. “Thai laws” would be a so-called “mia noi” (small wife), which is not registered at the Amphur. Your Thai wife to be may not like that idea – or she may approve with a big smile, as some ladies prefers to be the small wife as the mia noi often gets more money, gold, car and house… My GF always says that I can marry and also have small young giks, as long as she is the "mia noi"...

Just worried about legalities. Appreciate all advice. My friend, this echoes exactly what I went through around 3 years ago and I would just say, go for it. If you're sure the new GF is the one, do it. I had so many 'downs' at that time of my life and really needed the 'ups' my current wife gave and continues to give. Good luck to you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
