Popular Post flyingsaucersarereal Posted August 4, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2014 I'm always reading on Thai Visa forum about the issue of Sin Sod and how much we should give. Always reading its just a cultural thing we live in Thailand and this is what we have to do. Always reading how much should I give to my Thai GF as a monthly salary. Always reading about building a house in the village for your GF. Always reading about starting a business for your Thai girlfriend. Always reading about taking care of old parents and all the extended family. My question is what about me? What about my family? I take care of all your extended family but just leave my family to burn? What about my old grandparents? Parents? Brothers and sisters? Where is my business? I rent a apartment but I'm buiding you a house but don't have one myself? In my culture the brides family pays for the wedding. What about my culture? People need to wake up and think about this from a business point if view. What am I getting out of this deal? If its a bad deal walk away and find a good deal because trust me there are some good Thai girls out there that won't pull this nonsense. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jip99 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Why is it that whenever someone says "Trust me........." I immediately don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit_Doggie Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Go back to your family get the extinguisher and douse those flames,then you can take care of your family. Or stay here and get used to the thai way or the highway attitude,that a lot have. A few thousand baht goes a long way here but not in home country,so what about you choice being the operative word. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattaya28 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Good Realistic Post OP. I found one of the "other" girls. She has a big family. She has never asked me for a penny. I support my wife and myself only. My wife works, earns very good money by Thai standards, and with her earnings supports her entire family. That to me is a good balance. My money is my money, and will always be that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post benj005 Posted August 4, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2014 Damn right! Plenty of 20 year old Thai women out there that would jump at the chance to marry a man 20-30 years her senior! Oh wait a minute..... And here is the problem. Normally the man that the Thai woman gets hooked up with is 20 to 30 years older than she is. Some are even older! The guy is past his prime. The only thing he has going for himself I'd his wallet. She knows it. I doubt that a girl 30 years young would even be attracted to a 60 year old. Since the man is desperate he's going to go along with what ever his soon to be wife says. What choice does he have? He can't hang with the young guys anymore. He's lonely and desperate. Young women don't find him attractive anymore. Take up a hobby. Do something else so you don't feel the need to always have somebody in your life. I've been alone for a few years before I met my Thai girlfriend. I like to be alone. There is nothing wrong with it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post h90 Posted August 4, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2014 I did not pay any sin sod....My wife never got the idea.....I didn't buy her a house.....she was always active to build up our company. We don't separate money and she is as responsible with it as I am. I don't care about her culture and she doesn't care about my culture, we try to bring things forward together.....no matter what culture. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beetlejuice Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 People need to wake up and think about this from a business point if view. What am I getting out of this deal? Correct, so why do guys still pay pay by demand? Perhaps someone should write a book on the subject? Titled: Gullible`s Travels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deacon Bell Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 My question is what about me? You get to report to immigration every 90 days. As long as you have the money needed to get your 1 year extensions. Do neither, bye bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costas2008 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 OP, just for a moment close your eyes and visualise the delights that your girl friend is offering you. Neither your family, or friends can substitute her. So, now open your eyes and think......isn't she worthy of all the money and care in the world?

samuibeachcomber Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 What you get 'flyingsaucersarereal"..........unlimited sexual activity except for a few days a month and of course when ever she's pissed off with you. I'M sure you will agree its a bum deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seastallion Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 (edited) What do you get, OP? You get your leg over. Your' relationship is no different to that of the chap and the bar girl. It's not a Thai thing, it's global. Some men marry for sex and their wives for money, others marry for love. You have made your choice. It matters not that she's "Thai/Chinese" "works at a bank as a manager", your relationship is a business one, and it is plain that you are of the same mind.

I'M sure you will agree its a bum deal. This is explains it. I did not give a sin-sot for the hand of my beloved wife and was never offered unlimited sexual activity, which proves we only get what we pay for. Cough up with an extra 2 million baht and the sister in law maybe thrown in also as part of the deal. Edited August 4, 2014 by Beetlejuice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
