Bar girl expectations: How realistic?

Hi folks,

I was chatting with a lady in Hua Hin yesterday. She's originally from the back end of Udon. She wasn't a stunner by any means but she was attractive and she was about 34. She was very pleasant and easy to chat with and we got on very well. She was brutally honest with what she expects from her work. She told me her "Angel" (some sort of shamen or local witch doctor) told her that this year she would be very lucky and meet a rich man to "take care" of her (and her family).

I asked what she meant by "take care". I nearly fell off my chair with her answers.

She wants a salary to live with somebody as their girlfriend of 30,000ThB per month. She wants the lucky guy to fork out 3-4 million baht for a house for her. She also wants a dowry payable to the mother of 1 million in the event that the guy wishes to marry her. She might even want a house built for mom and dad. After that, comes the car etc.

I was very surprised as didn't appear to be your usual hard case bar girl. She came across as the girl next door type.

How realistic are these expectations? Is there actually somebody who would willingly pay these amounts for a girlfriend/wife?

I know Hua Hin has a lot of wealthy guys but is this a bridge too far for her or not?

Looking forward to your comments as I was quite taken aback by this. Are you?

She's not looking for an old dude per se. She said between 40 and 55, maybe up to 60. That pretty much excludes most pensioners so she is focusing her attention on people who already have a lot of cash, are not too old and who will spend it gladly on her.

Does that increase or decrease her chances, I wonder?

^^ Exactly, as long as she's not picky (giggle.gif), she'll snag some daft old dude, for sure.

Just out of curiously, op, did she tell you what she was bringing to the table barring a well worn flange?

I got the impression that this would be a very one-sided affair but she can cook...

It is absolutely doable, all of us know at least a handful of guys who have handed over this amount of cash to their younger Thai girlfriends, even got married to them.

I know of a swiss guy who never ever has been in her village, and pays the 39 year old woman 35,000 THB per month. All she has to do is a few weeks of escort service for him in Bangers during his work visits.

I bet if the OP's bargirl's expectations are being met somewhere about in the half of that, it will stil be a lottery win. Don't forget they start to bargain at double the price tag they expect in the end.

Many would be willing to build a house for her and themselves, even buy a car both can use, however paying dowry for a Thai woman who in most cases already has children and has worked through a few men, the answer will be a strict No ! At a marriage ceremony I would lend the money only for the show, to be given back to me after the guests have gone home.

Seems like her cup is half full and not half empty.

Her sights are set.

Good luck to her. I know many who set their sights low and consistently fail to make the grade....................wink.png

Being able to cook is also a bonus for her IMHO, especially if she can do chip butties................thumbsup.gif

you'd be surprised how stupid some guys are when it comes to thi women and bar girls... her expectations are not impossible if she meets the right mug and plays her cards right

At 34 she's fast approaching her use-by date as a bar girl, what she wants aand what she gets may be totally different.

I first met one like that from Lampang after I came to Chiang Mai. She was a 40 yrs old a teacher and the mother of 3 teenage girls. She used to bike over and spend the weekend. Best header I ever had. She needed 20,000 bahts a month to educate her daughters. I told her to keep looking but her chances were not good.

Well, mine was not a bar girl but rather a receptionist 22 years ago. Married 21 years (very happy for the first 6 then downhill slide to a sexless marriage), 2 kids (one born in Calif the other in KL)...Thai divorce a year ago...she got the two houses, two cars, and a big chuck of $. Yes, the divorce was cheaper than if I had done it in Calif. Fortunately, we have lived in Thailand for 13 years as of the date of the divorce. Bottom line - does not have to be a bar girl - if the economics circumstances and law are on their side of a guy working and the girl a housewife...the guy gets screwed (just like in Calif or the UK or elsewhere)
