Popular Post HeijoshinCool Posted July 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2014 Even though we’ve been together almost four years, with nary a cross word. She’s going next week for a tourist visa, hoping to travel with me a couple of months in the States. I have a bit of business there, and neither of us wants to be away from the other for such a long time. Besides, she wants to meet what little’s left of my family, and experience a Thanksgiving and Christmas. See where I grew up, why I think the fully irrational way I do, how Americans drive (to understand why I have less hair after coming here), save some money at Walmart, lose some money in Las Vegas, and stand on the glass deck over the Grand Canyon. We have a number of other things on our itinerary, including a trip to New York, and a slow drive up the California coast touring wineries and cheese farms. Anyway, point is, for many years the GF’s operated a hair salon in a building her (out-of-town) aunt owns, and in exchange for maintaining the otherwise vacant building, her aunt allows her to stay rent-free. This fact is pertinent (the GF’s balance sheet), and I suggested documenting it for the GF’s interview. So yesterday the GF asked visiting Auntie for a letter, a photo together in front of the salon, and a copy of the house book and Auntie’s ID card. Okay, Auntie said, mai pen rai. She and I have always gotten on well, and she was happy to help. Next day she came back and said no. She had just returned from the temple. The monk, who has never met the GF nor myself, performed some mumbo-jumbo, then assured Auntie that the relationship was “doomed.” Specifically, once in America, there was going to be a horrible fight, and I would “sell” the GF. That happens a lot there. Now the aunt will not talk to me, and is telling the GF’s father that the GF is in danger. Just can’t make this stuff up. P.S. Any offers? 12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ThaidDown Posted July 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2014 You nasty nasty man, thought you could pretend to take your girlfriend to US for a holiday, but all the while planning to sell her. Lucky the aunt went to consult such an insightful monk who could see through your wicked plans. As far as 'any offers' , I never make an offer 'sight unseen' Good luck. (and I have experienced something similar in the past.) 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly off topic, this is exactly why not everyone should be allowed to vote in Thai elections. Sadly a buffalo would make a more rational decision than a (too) large part of the Thai population.

chiang mai Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 The line "he's going to sell you" is not uncommon where the foreigner takes the local lass overseas for a holiday etc, Immigration is known to counsel such folks if the passport is empty. Mrs CM has been through that process twice, twice when exiting Thailand and once when arriving in Hong Kong, the UK on the other hand just waved her through with a yawn!

Actually, I consider paying for land and a house that can only be in her name, a substitute for the life insurance I would buy for an American wife if I lived in the States. So yes, I probably will.

inzman Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I have taken two Thai girls out of this country. Married both of them, at different times to be sure. Both girls had their families tell them to be careful, I might sell them. Both girls families knew me well and yet both suffered a lot of anxiety over this. I was told its a common cause of concern by older Thai relatives. I guess in the old days this happened occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beetlejuice Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) Unfortunately these attitudes have extended from what were common happenings in the past and perhaps is still common practice today.Farangs would allege that they are fiancés or boyfriends of young attractive Thai women in order to take them abroad for illegitimate purposes, sometimes the Thai women were aware and in with the scam or unaware of what they maybe getting involved with. And this has stuck in the minds of many Thais and Western foreign offices as believing the same is now still prevalent regarding the reasons farangs take young attractive Thai women back to their countries and what is probably behind the way of thinking of the said monk and the aunt. I know that this practice is going on today with Thai women using so-called Australian fiancés to assist them with obtaining visas to visit Australia, sometimes of ED visas and then becoming sex workers in the sex establishments of New South Wales. I know this for a fact because a Thai cousin of my wife done this exactly 3 years ago and she has been the talk of the family ever since.I can remember gong back many years there were articles published in Thai newspapers and magazines warning young Thai women not to become involved and travel abroad with farangs and giving a few alleged horror stories as examples. I cannot blame the monk and aunt for having concerns and it means that the OP is going to have to prove that his intentions towards his girlfriend are honourable, which I guess is not going to be an easy task. The OP says that he has some business in the US, and wonder what sort of business that is? Because the aunt is probably wondering the same and also what does the OP actually do in Thailand? And as I said; I can fully understand the attitudes of the monk and the aunt. Edited July 6, 2014 by Beetlejuice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wow64 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 The OP's story is gold..and common here. Some kind of spirit talker told my wife when we first meet I was going to sell her or do something very bad to her when we go overseas.. Its very funny. There was a lot of detail from the spirit women that just didnet make sense she even said that she meet me and overheard me talking to another farang about the deal I was going to do..
