Got married, though I knew it would be a mistake. Got divorced a few years later. Had cost me a lot.

She died 5 years ago,,, well, she could have died earlier, just to safe me money and anger.

NEVER sign the paper again. Just recon that this is OT, was in Farangistan

Thirty years married to my Thai wife living mainly in Thailand (Bangkok and Rayong) but with 6 years in Taiwan from 1986 to 1993. Still happy together and absolutely no regrets.

[tollgate]

My beautiful Thai wife thought it was acceptable to:

Spit in my face.

Rip shirts off me.

Attack me with broom handles, a heavy wooden chair and even a large kitchen knife.

Break my stuff.

Guess what? I left her. Took me 8 years to do it. Stupid me.

Now she has said sorry and wants me back!

[Minnehaha]

if it flies, floats, or fokx, it is cheaper to rent

[Aussieroaming]

No issue, my wife is fantastic

Over the years, I have heard many real life cases of broken relationships; vast majority of relationships end up

on the rocks and financial ruin. These cases happened in 4 different countries I have lived in.

Common theme is that most women have the same brain.

Here in Thailand, a foreign man is at a significant disadvantage from day 1. He is the lonely, rich foreigner who

has more money than brains so he pays and pays and pays until he can pay no more and back to the bars.

Thai courts and her family will always support her.

Would you like to play a high stakes poker game with the odds vastly against you?

And I detest that word 'farang'.

Hmm. 4 failed marriages. Ever consider staying single or perhaps you gravitate towards wrong type of woman.

[Blue Muton]

We've been married about four years. My only regret is that we didn't meet (and marry) 10 or more years earlier.

[alfieconn]

Be interesting to know what the age difference was on the failed marriages !

[soc]

Never been married to a Thai woman, but was married to a Filipina.

Yes, l regret it & l only stayed for the kids.

Once they grew up, l divorced,

Had to sell my land to pay her out but it was worth it.

Then moved to Thailand, but don't live here all the time.

Enjoying myself immensely in Pattaya.

I was the same age as my husband when we divorced after 25 years. We were both English.

I don't regret the marriage, and I still enjoy his house and his pension.

You reckon........

[macca46]

I was with mine for two years only married for eleven months she had a lot of debt when I met which I paid of course bought a new pick up built a new house the usual walking ATM and then she then at forty eight years of age she decided it was time to go back her toy boys.

I guess not an unusual story here in the LOS.

Last day of court yesterday every thing has to be sold and split 50/50 what remains to be seen is how and when will it happen.

[Jonathon]

3+ years and happy I did so. Also happy that she will have sufficient income not to have to work in her old age should I depart first.

[Redline]

No. At least not yet. It's been 2 years that I have been married to my Thai wife. She works very hard, and pays more than her fair share of everything. We have always split everything 50/50. She has a heart of gold. Of course thigs can change, but everyone in her family works hard.

[cooked]

Best thing I ever did, I can't believe my luck.

After 30 years of marriage + girlfriends, three years living alone swearing never to look at another woman again, I fell helplessly for my companion, friend and wife. We have a sweet granddaughter with us and the great grandson toddles over as often as he can. fxing great life.

What did she do before? She was a marriage broker! I made her give that up as it was bordering on pimping most of the time.

Last year a friend of mine upgraded ThaiThaiGirlfriend 6.0 to the Thai version of Thai Wife 1.0, and found that it’s a memory hog leaving very little system resources available for other applications. He is now noticing that Thai Wife 1.0 is also spawning Child Processes which are further consuming valuable resources. No mention of this particular phenomena was included in the product brochure or the documentation, though other users have informed him that this is to be expected due to the nature of the application.

Not only that, Thai Wife 1.0 installs itself such that it is always launched at system initialization, where it can monitor all other system activity. He’s finding that some applications such as Go Go 10.3, BeerBar 2.5, and Massage 7.0 are no longer able to run in the system at all, crashing the system when selected (even though they always worked fine before).

During installation, Thai Wife 1.0 provides no option as to the installation of undesired Plug-Ins such as Mother-in-law 55.8 and Brother-in-law Beta release. Also, system performance of these undesired elements seems to diminish with each passing day.

Some features he’d like to see in the upcoming Thai Wife 2.0:

A “Don’t remind me again” button.

A Minimize button.

An install shield feature that allows Thai Wife 2.0 be installed with the option to uninstall at any time without the loss of cache and other system resources.

An option to run the network driver in promiscuous mode which would allow the system’s hardware probe feature to be much more useful.

I myself decided to avoid the headaches associated with Thai Wife 1.0 by sticking with ThaiGirlfriend 7.0. Even here, however, I found many problems. Apparently you cannot install ThaiGirlfriend 7.0 on top of ThaiGirlfriend 6.0. You must uninstall ThaiGirlfriend 6.0 first. Other users say this is a long standing bug that I should have known about. Apparently the previous versions of ThaiGirlfriend have conflicts over shared use of the I/O port. You think they would have fixed such a stupid bug by now. To make matters worse, the uninstall program for ThaiGirlfriend 6.0 doesn’t work very well leaving undesirable traces of the application in the system. Another thing — all versions of ThaiGirlfriend continually popup little annoying messages about the advantages of upgrading to Thai Wife 1.0.

Thai Wife 1.0 has an undocumented bug. If you try to install MiaNoi 1.1 before uninstalling Thai Wife 1.0, Thai Wife 1.0 will delete MSMoney files before doing the uninstall itself. Then MiaNoi 1.1 will refuse to install, claiming insufficient resources.

To avoid this bug, try installing MiaNoi 1.1 on a different system and never run any file transfer applications such as Laplink 6.0. Also, beware of similar shareware applications that have been known to carry viruses that may affect Thai Wife 1.0. Another solution would be to run MiaNoi 1.1 via a UseNet provider. Here again, beware of the viruses which can accidentally be downloaded from the UseNet.

Tech Support Suggestions

These are very common problem men complain about, but is mostly due to a primary misconception. Many people upgrade from ThaiGirlfriend 6.0 to Thai Wife 1.0 with the idea that Thai Wife 1.0 is merely a Utilities & Entertainment program. Thai Wife 1.0 is indeed an operating system and designed by its creator to run everything.

It is unlikely you would be able to purge Thai Wife 1.0 and still convert back to ThaiGirlfriend 6.0. Hidden operating files within your system would cause ThaiGirlfriend 6.0 to emulate Thai Wife 1.0 so nothing is gained. It is impossible to uninstall, delete, or purge the program files from the system once installed. You cannot go back to ThaiGirlfriend 6.0 because Thai Wife 1.0 is not designed to do this.

Some have tried to install ThaiGirlfriend 7.0 or Thai Wife 2.0 but end up with more problems than the original system. Look in your manual under “Warnings - Alimony/Child support”. I recommend you keep Thai Wife 1.0 and deal with the situation. I suggest installing background application program C:\YESDEAR to alleviate software augmentation.

Having installed Thai Wife 1.0 myself, I might also suggest you read the entire section regarding General Partnership Faults (GPFs). You must assume all responsibility for faults and problems that might occur, regardless of their cause. The best course of action will be to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE. In any case avoid excessive use of C:\YESDEAR because ultimately you may have to give the C:\APOLOGIZE command before the operating system will return to normal. The system will run smoothly as long as you take the blame for all the GPFs.

Thai Wife 1.0 is a great program, but very high-maintenance. Consider buying additional software to improve the performance of Thai Wife 1.0. I recommend Flowers 3.1 and Diamonds 2K. Do not, under any circumstances, install Secretary with Short Skirt 3.3. This is not a supported application for Thai Wife 1.0 and is likely to cause irreversible damage to the operating system.

Best of Luck,

Been married to my lovely wife, who is Thai, for 30 years. She treats me well, as I do her. Most people comment how lucky I am to have her. I agree.

[oxo1947]

Actually life was so very simple before I got married to my first wife----A Kiwi----before that I had absolutely no idea there was a wrong way to put the milk back in the fridge...........................

[gyrosman]

the lawyers were happy.

I regret marrying all 3 of my wives.

[maoro2013]

Courts in Australia also give the female much more than we think she deserves.

I paid mine everything I had to get away.

I think it works mostly like that in that so called western world.

Is it different here except you may give it in advance?

[landslide]

Married my Thai wife 4 years ago after knowing her for for 4 years. Didn't jump in until age 57, having never married before. She is a peach, and frankly, marrying her was the best thing I ever did. There have been times when life was simpler when I was single, because the only person I had to worry about was me. I still would not trade being married with the single life. Other than sending $B5000 to her grandmother for medicine monthly, there are no sick buffalos, no parents, no brothers or sisters, no family crisises at all. She is frugal, and the only thing she spends money on is vegetables and fatty meats. On our yearly visits, we try to get small gifts for her cousins and friends in Thailand, but she turns down a lot of my suggestions because they are "too expensive". She called to talk with her cousin once, usually a 30 minute call. She hung up after 5 minutes. I asked why so quick? She hesitated, then said her cousin's husband asked for money to buy a pickup. She was really angry, and called him stupid. Never heard about them again.

"Over the years, I have heard many real life cases of broken relationships; vast majority of relationships end up on the rocks and financial ruin. "

Wow. Real life cases. And you heard them?

Is a "vast majority" somewhere between a "slim margin" and a "landslide?

"And I detest that word 'farang'. "

I don't care much for strawberry ice cream, but somehow that seems equally irrelevant.

I feel sorry for the half-my-age, hot-piece-of-ass wife. She could have done so much better.

There were a number of applicants for the position of Candy Crush Madam. There were a number of applicants for the position. This one knew how to balance running the house and running me.

She has exceeded expectations and is compensated well. Deliriously happy after 4 years.

[Altalake]

Several guys I know, who seemed to be happily married, got onto Facebook and then went to school reunions, and hey presto - off they went with "childhood sweethearts".

,

And more than one lived to regret it too.

About 30 or so years ago the "Torygraph", or maybe it was the - Screws of the World, I forget - of London, did a survey on people who had been married before, and got divorced and then re-married, men and women.

About 80% (I seem to recall) said they wished they'd stuck with the first spouse!

Ho ho!!

[crickets]

On average 10minutes a day when she is on her ipad and i have to repeat myself because she just ignores me. Other than that i am happy.

[TJR4ASR]

I dont regret my Thai wife. She stood by when I lost my job.

[benalibina]

Yes I regret it, but I blame myself. Not her. Instinct, not acting on it, kids....and false trust in decency, morals, ethics...because of beforementioned kids.....all in all a huge mistake.

[ozyjon]

Never been married

but the answer is YES

what was the question
