They are within themselves, their own worst enemy with hate, scorn and a refractory sense of jealousy. No matter what, to her and now within her social circle, there will always be another woman. It is just how they work. I blocked, changed my number and started again and profoundly deep inside; it hurt like ****. Don't weaken now. Better times await. You have left her a nice house and a car she can sell. I do not know many Thais in my village that has a million baht in the bank or could sell such items and if they did, they would consider themselves very wealthy. Best of luck TDL. Hi TTU and all the thread bros young and old, new and established. Thanks for all your support, humour, candid observations, amusing anecdotes and sharing. All of that has been a massive help in my struggle ( Mien Kampf ?) along the road to re cover. One of the more recent posts (above) states how profoundly deep it hurts but does not explore the highly confusing scenario where our western values clash against common sense as well as being ably fuelled by the concern for her wellbeing. What a tumultuous battle of emotions is threshing its way through my emotional spectrum. And at present no matter how many injections of common sense I get from my carers, I cannot suppress it. time will heal those wounds. Currently angling for a pretty good good position in the John Lewis groupso fingers crossed there. Found an absolute ute star of a GP who expresses genuine concern for the decline in my overall wellbeing and is working on that step by step. The psychological recovery will have to be tackled later. Got my 5 string Jazz sorted out ( the neck was bent like a 400 meters ataletic track and the action like a set if UK overhead power lines.) applied for a position with a Pink Floyd tribute band an though the rejection cut deep, the fact that they responded made me feel wanted. Just spent a weekend in Norfolk with mum, big sis and her hubby at a place called the gin palace. No need to go into more detail there methinks. Still a long ling way to go to completely recover from living in the LoS bubble but deffo making progress. Thanks you guys for everything just to show you what you are missing;) 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post owl sees all Posted August 13, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2017 (edited) Big war this morning. I think Thai wives try to hide things away rather than come clean when they think they are in the wrong; maybe to avoid confrontation. Who knows?! The wife wanted to go to the little market on the Mcycle. It's only 2K away. No prob's there but she then said "no benzine." That's strange, I thought, only two days before I put 3 litres in. "Where is the petrol dear?" "I don't know!" I sensed a change in the voice. "Someone has used the bike and gone a fair way on it. It must have been you yesterday. It's OK, I'll put some in" "I don't know who use bike!, why you keep ask me? You want trouble?!" "Well I reckon the bike has done over 60Km and and you didn't know? How did the bike go anywhere without the key? You have the key!" To cut a long story short, it turned out that the wife's niece; 'May' - 14 years old and with two friends - had (supposedly) gone into town (20Km away). And disappeared for about 4/5 hours while I had been attending to the cat sanctuary at the farm. I wasn't best pleased when I found out. She (the wife) had given them not only the key but the OK to go to town. Been found out telling porkies again. Not one has a crash hat (the girls not the cats) and the Mcycle is just a village run-around without any MoT or the like. WW3 battle #201 started. Don't get me wrong guys; lots of times she has asked me for the use of the Mcycle. I've not refused for local trips BUT I have said NO for big road journeys. I thought me and Mrs Owl had a agreement on this. Perhaps I got it wrong again!! If I do survive 'til tomorrow I might even pray to something. But I've been told to expect a very painful end. Anyway; what's for sure is that I'm in the dog (in my case the cat) house again. Edited August 13, 2017 by owl sees all 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesnt the constant battle to get to get to the truth get to you though? To me,and maybe I am a bit sensitive, the lying demonstrates a lack of respect ( in a sort of ' oh fuckhim he is farang no worries") and a definite case of family ( blood) first gets right under my skin. Add to all that deceit and duplicity the anger directed at you when you finally get to the truth and it must make you ask yourself if it is really worth it. Certainly for me now I have got out of the bubble and can look at it from the outside, it is odd. Please be careful old friend, don't let it drag you under like it did me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am far past my youth but I can see lots of laughter and happiness here, and I do hope, things for all of us in Thailand can find some sense of contentment. Hi TTU old chum, indeed your words were the words of hope hope that I had missed either due to being self absorbed or illiterate as for sure my thread bros have been fantastically supportive throughout. I had to read your post post several times again possibly due to the two old favourites self absorbed or illiteracy but it hit right on the nail. Yes there are times when we may be wrong and there are definitely times when what is considered as acceptable behaviour in LoS causes strife. I can see absolutely no rationale behind putting blood before husband then lying about it. There is no cultural upside and all I can see is zero respect and taking the piss out of the farang. If it is more important to be seen to support the indig blood line than it is being supportive of the one you chose to spend your life with and, in many cases, the one who certainly lifted you up a few social levels with the sudden affluence then accept the consequences of that action. I was offered psyciatric help in Thailand after suffering scary hallucinations during an expensive stay at Khorat Memorial hospital being wrongly treated for a seriously misdiagnosed condition, however I declined it. My reasoning at the time was that in all in all likelihood the psychiatrist would end up asking questions via my wife and receiving responses in the same manner. The result of my wife's translation of my answers would dictate if I became an involuntary guest at an unnamed secure facility nearby Don Meuang airport or not. a bit too flimsy for me! if you don't mind me asking are you receiving help from an indig psychiatrist or a farang one?

Popular Post sandrabbit Posted August 15, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 15, 2017 12 hours ago, owl sees all said: I've made my bed and anyway I've a lovely daughter, a pond full of Koi carp and 32 (tonight's count) cats to look after. That must be fun having 32 cats and I bet you don't have a problem with birds stealing your koi carp ........ We gained a kitten last night, we were driving home when I spotted her curled up in the road scared - yet another dumped animal on the beach road. Going to get her checked by the vet this afternoon and I hope she's been weaned, poor thing was lucky not to be squashed. This is supposed to be a Buddhist country but it's a regular occurrence to have Bangkok & Chonburi number plates dumping their dogs here. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cats keep the rats away. No rats - no snakes. They do take an interest in the Koi. https://youtu.be/JMfrypNLLXU Sometimes there are a dozen or so on the pier just observing. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a cat in sight in my Mrs families village I dare not wonder why.

I fully concur Captain Kirk, old Wise one seems to have got his stuff ( avoid the deletion) well wired and for that I salute him! life is never an easy path but if you can ride the ups and downs it is fulfilling. My problem is/was the ups were more than deleted by the downs after 17 years together. Made de a big mistake in that all our contacts were linked by the cloud so when I deleted my line app I was wrong in my assumption that I was uncontactable because being stupid I put my new UK mobile number in my contact details on my ipad............. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are all a complicated mob. We make mistakes. We are human, but one thing we can do is learn. Hi TTU, you seem to have landed on your feet this time, congrats. Your wisdom infers you are from Old Owl stock, he is a wise one too! mine never criticised my driving and never ever tried to Lord it over others as she was married to a farang. We had shed loads of money when we first came over ut lost it in a business deal gone ( horribly) wrong. She never criticised that, taking it on the chin and adjusting accordingly. Others however accused me openly of being "khee niou" for not spreading the perceived wealth. Despite the loss of face she never rose to those occasions. The only crack in our relationship was a very deep streak of jealousy and a great deal of insecurity. I am totally honest when I tell you that I never gave her any reason to have those feelings and I strongly suspect I was paying the price for the activities of the former husband who could not keep his "chap" zippered up and often beat her, so much so she was hospitalised numerous times. I don t beat women and certainly nowadays only bring out the love log to perform bathroom related activities. It has never appeared in a side show, ever. That begs the question"why am I being punished for the ex's transgressions?" Edited August 15, 2017 by The Dark Lord 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LannaGuy Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 16 hours ago, Been there done that said: I do. You are only farang. Even you must understand that. farang are below the pet dog and if you don't get that Thailand will get YOU 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lie, they get angry when found out but it's you who gets the shit. Argh think next time around I will be a non practising homosexual. Life would be a darn sight easier. Just leave and provide for your daughter. What you've got now is not what most of us would call 'a life'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
