There's an add getting around on Thai Visa for a dating service. "Find a thai wife" .com Would be interesting to see any real reviews for this site. I have a friend back home that is interested in meeting a thai lady, but he has zero idea of the pitfalls associated with Thailand.

It took me 10 years of kissing a lot of frogs(and i dont mean French) and i thoroughly enjoyed it, before i met my wife. We bought and ran, 2 bars in Patts for 5 years (two of them married) we sold up and moved back to her village in Isaan. I knew her for 3 years before we done the marriage thing. We have now been here for 2 years, and i wouldn't have it any other way. We have a nice house,( a very, very, very nice house, with 2 cats in the yard, Crosby, Stills and Nash, anybody) and now we also have 2 little dogs. We are happy enough. But i dont understand why she gets the hump when i introduce her as "my present wife" Funny people these Thai women,

You do realise, that your friend wanting to meet a Thai lady, is about the same as sending an early Christian into the  arena to meet the Lion's.

Some very good advice all you guys - i know it's lot of personal info to put on TV but I was honestly running out of ideas sometimes the barstool advice during beers can't be remembered :) I didn't expect such a huge response thanks again

Nope-you are certainly correct.

Yeah-and Thai women haven't  thru their disbursement of funds to brothers,sons,cousins,friends,family,gambling and partying?

 

The only mystery to me up here in Isaan is where the hell has  all the money gone-it must be billions from farangs let alone the Thai Gov't of whatever colour.Certainly not in education and personal achievement.

Nice edit!!!

 

If fools want to give money away to bargirls thats their choice. 2m baht is a lot less than $400,000 in real money to their last wife who worked about 2 days in their entire life.

 

carry on

Dodging the question. Talking about ss which kidnapping victims sometimes get.

 

You're struggling with reality.

It's amusing that all you can is post abuse or dodge questions.

 

How many marriages have you had?

 

Why are you so upset by general discussions?

 

Bitter about Thailand are you?

Upset?No..

Amused...yes.

 

Actually I rather like like Thailand but whether it is better or worse for your posts is,of course a matter of speculation.

 

By the way-your English is deteriorating as we post.

Regarding my second relationship the girl I was with was also very wealthy in her own right, also from a powerful family which sort of made me trust her a lot more as I was under the impression that she didn't desperately need my money.  So to clarify all my relationships do not begin in bars.  I have read many TV posts on mutually respectful relationships with Thai ladies, and believe me I have tried my hardest to find one of these.  Anyone with any success stories please let me know where I am going wrong.

 

Perhaps her family's wealth in the Land of Smiles was built on deceiving gullible simpletons.

 

My humble advice: Choose an educated and financially independent woman. Avoid peasants and bar girls.
