Fabricus Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) My extraordinarily exotic GF and I are no longer really together. Things began to fizzle out about a year ago. But she really is a former model with two degrees. She has a foreign surname and her cousin is one of Thailand's leading experts in tropical diseases. I met her on ThaiFriendly. Five years ago we shared what I consider to be a perfect day. We went to the zoo in BKK. How about you -- ever shared a TRULY perfect day with a Thai girl here in the realm?

CharlieH Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Always baffles me as to why people see the need to "qualify" their partner/GF/wife etc. Why is it necessary to emphasize education and working status/profession and who her relatives are???? . People generally wouldnt even think of mentioning this in other countries (US/UK as examples). absolutely no relevance to the subject nor topic being discussed, which I believe is supposed to be about relationships between two people.

I agree entirely with your sentiment but am not sure you are correct. I think you will find that the folks on here who have the perfect hi so (don't want a penny from me) gf in Thailand also had the perfect company director, solicitor, stock broker gf in the UK or US in years gone by. I confess to never having had a full day romantic outing with one girl but did have a great day out bamboo rafting with a group of crazy, fun loving Thai ladies.

True. Think of it as a nod to someone who had the initiative and ambition to set up a Thailand-based IT business. I'm basically promoting the other guy's website. What I wrote is true, however. The other guy's site can and does work. Edited August 26, 2016 by Fabricus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villagefarang Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Many, both here and overseas. I will never forget the day we went skydiving in Hawaii or the many hikes in places like the Grand Canyon, Bryce, Zion, Arches, Glacier, Yosemite, Yellowstone, Mt. Rainier and so many others.

pgrahmm Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Yep - almost daily...... I guess it depends on the person looking to "claim" perfection...... On this board that could mean anything from a quick/or free piece of @$$ - to someone in a happy & lengthy union...... Some look for grievances/trouble/signs/drama & don't feel happy until they find something to find fault/complain, or bitch about......Guess that makes them semi-happy but rules out perfect..... Me - if I have a day I find nothing to complain about - that makes it a perfect day......And I've been/am blessed with many - pretty much on a daily basis..... After all, the world we see & how we perceive it is really a reflection/mirror image of ourselves.....

Donutz Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 (edited) I've had plenty of perfect days with family and friends around the globe (thus including Thailand). Ofcourse I had the most perfect days with my beloved darling. The fun trips we had in Thailand and the Netherlands and other countries, our weddingday, her 30th birthday (much more fun then my 30th birthday a few years later). Those were perfect days for both her and me. I remember them fondly Sadly due to tragidy I do not get the pleasure of having more such fantastic days. But I treasure every memory and I know that I made her the happiest girl on earth up to the last day of her life. If there is a decline in happy days, be it with your partner, friends or family, that is a clue that you have got some work to do. Edit: what made them perfect? Those days were simply much fun, very special and treasured memories. Thinking of it, most days were near perfect or atleast great. Like pgrahmm wrote, any day without negatives is a perfect day not? Though some may still be more perfect than others. Be positive, stay positive. I still am even though I wish I could go back in time an relive those treasured memories over and over again.

I do relate to your opinion --on that CharlieH . My wife came from a family of 12 in a quite poor Issan area, Sis-a-ket, born in the 60s....she is now in her 50s..... I met her when a friend invited me for a meal in a BKK French restaurant where she worked---just was amazed how she could speak 5 languages after leaving school at 12----Thai/Lao/Khemer/French/English ---when I had been in Thailand for over 6 months studering Thai, & after many $$$ spent, whenever I spoke everyone collapsed in laughter. The amount of French (you had to speak some, to progress at that restaurant) & English were quite light.....but she didn't panic like I did whenever, after I asked for something in Thai and had been given an answer I hadn't prepared for. Maybe her English had come from the odd boyfriend---I don't know, that's her history not mine.. So I had fallen for a women that had 3 children---was over the hill (in her mid 30s) Husband had a min-noi and decided that was the better option so had kicked them all out...(I did get to meet & verify that with him. ) . So how lucky was I huh....?? I think I Know on a scale of 1-10 where most Thai-visa readers would rate me. That was 16 years ago--has there been bumps in the road---sure , but as Frank used to sing--there's been a few...but just too few to mention.

She chose to hang on to her children instead of dumping them, & you help out with that even though they are are not yours. What are you ??? some sort of normal working class Joe.??

chrisinth Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I think it was likely her 50th birthday. Or possibly her 40th? Or 30th? Maybe it wasn't her birthday after all....................... From my end, it would have been an easier question as to how many non-perfect days I remember. As with the perfect days, there have been a few, but with far less of a number count....................... No mamby-pamby sugar coating here.

Perhaps because in their home countries they would never consider being in a relationship with an uneducated peasant, whereas here many many men do just that. Those of us who don't therefore prefer to make it clear that we don't date peasants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
