My first wife (Irish) was a good match, together for 20 years. But when illness forced me away from the UK climate, she decided not to come. As for the Thai wives... hmmm...less said the better 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterTee Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Getting married is for suckers. It may seem so when you are younger, but when you start to get older having a good Thai wife, daughters, and extended family to take care of you is better than any of the fun you had in earlier days in Thailand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Costas2008 Posted November 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2014 1.5 for me. I was waiting for someone to include their Mia Noi ... Costas will be around later to mention his wife and his 2 or 3 dozen badgers. Apparently they all sleep in one massive bed. He's been quiet recently. Must be wroking hard to feed all those little mouths. . Sipi, just answering your OP, got 1 wife............for the moment................. Just come back from Koh Samet where I took her for a long weekend and for the information of the other gentlemen, I didn't take any of my livestock with me. Just packed her in the suitcase along with the swimming trunks, 10 T shirts, 5 pairs of shorts and my tuxedo and off we went..........mine doesn't weight 150 kilos My intention was to dive in there for oysters (plenty of them.......farang and Thai.........but she kept a sharp eye on me. Where did she find those blinkers for me?.......I would never know. Anyway, after showing my muscular body around the beach, to the admiration of thousands of chicks, I sat down and build a sand castle and I got a pat on the head for that from her. Next time I'm going alone. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrtoad Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Welcome back Costas, i would imaging that Koh Samet would not have allowed you bring your livestock onto the island. Sounds like you had a nice weekend, will be a busy one for you this week attending your menagerie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transam Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 One thing I am 100% sure of....IF, and I hope not, I need to find another wife, she will NOT have kid baggage......100% sure... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipi Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 Costas. You don't dive for oysters, you dive for crabs. Oysters are simply picked up using the appropriate tool. Some are stuck on more than others. Anyway. Thanks Gents for contributing. It seems, contrary to some ideas out there, that long term relationships are the norm in Thailand (with the exception of some understandable others, as you get everywhere); just as I suspected. Now, back to more important things; Costas oysters.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipi Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 What about the wife? How many western men she had before you? Thank you for asking. She doesn't have a pinch on my farang "ex-wife", not even close.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sipi Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 Thai wives: 0 Non-Thai wives prior: 0 ... although marriage is very popular in my family. Each of my siblings have done it at least twice. I hear you. My siblings married at least twice, as did my parents, step-parents, grand-parents. Strangely, I married once... Don't give up! Get yourself a good Thai lady. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
