ubonjoe Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Since this will end up being more a divorce question than visas for Thailand or the US I am moving it to the Marriage and Divorce forum, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai at Heart Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Smith. You believe this girl got herself all the way to oz, got married and the guy ran away after a month, and you want to marry her? This has to be a troll. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple1 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) OP: Australia has 'no fault' divorce. Details for applying for divorce, can be done from offshore, no need for a lawyer at: http://www.familylawcourts.gov.au/wps/wcm/connect/FLC/Home/Separation+and+Divorce EDIT: Just saw the above post, happened to a Thai women I know in Oz. Met a guy in Thailand who sponsored her. As soon as she arrived in Thailand he became abusive and then deserted her in less than a month. Oz govt & local Thais supported her until visa status etc was sorted out. I personally knew him, he was an arse@#$% Edited October 20, 2014 by simple1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaidDown Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 She is a married woman and would need her Australian marriage terminated by divorce or annulment before she could marry again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I like the bit where the OP mentions that 'she is not married in Thailand'. A legal marriage in Australia usually means she's married worldwide. BTW just MHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A reality check for the OP, smithkar ... you know you are relying on her telling the truth. Just a thought ... make of it what you wish. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choochoo Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 He is an alcoholic who lied until the end. That's why he vanished. you kind of missing the point. You want to marry the girl not the guy...................lol. you need to analyze your girl! her motivations. ex. why she want to marry an alcoholic.

ModBellerophon Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) He is an alcoholic who lied until the end. That's why he vanished. A reality check for the OP, smithkar ... you know you are relying on her telling the truth. Just a thought ... make of it what you wish. . I've met three Thai girls over the years who were married to foreigners and had no idea how to get out of it as the guys had just disappeared. Two married outside of Thailand, came home for a bit....and then guy disappeared / moved / never replied to them again. One married in Thailand and then the guy went home and disappeared. No matter what for any of these women to get divorced is a financial undertaking, outside of Thailand or indside of Thailand they need lawyers and there's a lot of steps to follow. Compare that to uneducated farm girls....they don't have a chance to get things sorted unless they can pay a lawyer, which they don't always have the means to do. For a Thai contested divorce even the one girl has to PROVE and document that she served him with papers....she can't....so she can't even get divorced in Thailand. She saved for a while and tried but it got no where. I'm unfortunately married to a blood sucking <deleted> and have mixed views on Thai women.....but the assumption that the OP needs a reality check is a bit rough. It's a very very believable story. Plenty of foreigners come here, marry, promise the world to a girl, then cut and run and all the while minimize their obligations for children or any splitting of assets. Yes girls play games too....but there's plenty of guys doing it.

MexicanFarang Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 "will it keep me from bringing her to the usa to marry me?" Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. I'd try "reducing" before recycling. Better for your Economic Environment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
