I am still in counselling. It has been a long time gone, still and I am getting help to this very day. It slowly passes, but I am still to this day, this hour, this second, worry and care about this person well-being as well. My current wife hates it, but she has been into the sessions and saw's what damage has been done, and that has helped her. Good people have feelings, we have careful souls, and I am a soft touch, so it hurts more.

 

All I have learnt from my sessions now is that she was responsible for much; so was I just as well in some cases to blame but in the end, you do learn to suppress it as time heals everything. My counsellor told me many Thai ladies stay with drunken, poor Thai husbands because that is the best they could get, yet they still care greatly for them till death. He told me in it all depends on the person we get and those words helped me greatly.

 

I hope that helps in some way. You are not alone.

 

BTW; I am sitting in an Internet Cafe. I wanted some time out for myself. It is just so full of beautiful women and I as I look across at such perfection, a part of me still says, even with all the vexes and problems I have encountered in this country, life, even at times so painful needs to be lived. 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?

 

Cheers

So recognizable: getting angry when caught lying.

And that's what so <deleted> wrong about it. 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.

Nah, Next time around I'm getting castrated before I get old enough to think girls are cool. I'll save myself a lifetime of pain.

My wife was NEVER in the wrong. It was ( and still is ) all my fault.

However, it's difficult to stay cool when one has been subject to 4 hours of back seat driving!

You know what chaps, buy a two seater car, that stops back seat driving but sadly unless you own a maclaren you will always be open to driving advice from the seat behind the space where the steering wheel goes in most third world countries.........(the left side)

The wife's brother got drunk and started getting rowdy (still lives with mum at 33). When I arrived back from the farm at 6-30 this evening the mother was at our house. The wife told me the story about the excess low cow drinking and that she will stay 'til tomorrow. And guess what; the mother being here has transformed Mrs Owl from a hissing, snarling witch into a normal person; nice even!!

 

Strange life sometimes.

 

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.

Maybe you should regularly buy your wife's brother a bottle of low cow....

I am just wiping the blood out of my mind. Just watched a Thai guy get smashed to pieces in front of me on his motorcycle. Not a chance of survival at the speed he was travelling past me.

 

I am seeing a Thai Psychiatrist; he has 25 years of experience in America and came from in fact from the finest Medical School know to man. He has both the Thai side and farang side sorted out very well.  His English is just like mine. To top this off, I have Skype sessions in Australia twice monthly to close friend who went to my school with me and is a psychologist. 

 

It is the social level and the raising of the affluence that I do not understand and frankly, I hate it. I am low-so and admit it. Still, everyone around me see's it so different. My current wife knows what I am worth and the funny part is, with all her lands and the such, the family are much more wealthy than me. Still, because she married a farang, people in the village who never spoke to her are sucking up her arse in such blindly obvious ways, and God love her, she is not taking it. Then the farang/Thai social factor in our area because I am not a drinker, interested in socialising and spending up large, just white-washed me from the whole scene of things. My wife and I are just too low-so and boy, are we reminded of it.

 

My wife's family is very old now. Most of the village has respected them and do not ask me for much.  Her brother, God bless his works like a trooper. This time I have been lucky, but I do understand one thing. I never will understand the blood line and the 'Ktay yu' (gratefulness) toward the family and at moments notice if the wife is called to something by them, she will be given a choice from me.

 

It has not happened yet, but I hope and I mean, I REALLY hope if that time comes, that she has the rational to listen to me first as her husband and take on board what I have to say or do and then look to the family. I am well past the stage of 'taking the piss from the farang'. To date that has not happened but in my previous relation it did.

 

I hope that clears some things up. We are all a complicated mob. We make mistakes. We are human, but one thing we can do is learn.

 

I had this happen in my previous relationship. The young brother of 12 years old took my old bike 40km into town. On the way home, he had an accident on a driveway. I was not home, but he got cut up real bad. No helmet. I found out, and we drove out to our home. My old bike was bashed up. He was in bandages. Everyone just was glad he was alive but did not give a flying ***** he drove an 80km round trip. I took the keys to the bike and said, no one at home now had access to the motorcycle.

 

Boy for the next three months while I kept the keys, I was the biggest a8hole the world had ever seen in the family. After he healed, my partner went out home and gave him a beating he would never forget. Just double standards.

 

I cannot understand anything. I was the a8hole, and my partner was the head honcho and the saint.

I do. You are only farang. Even you must understand that.

Fair play owl it's nice to see someone looking after the animals. Not a cat in sight in my Mrs families village I dare not wonder why. To be honest it's all good at present we had the rain to thank for not paying a visit I do miss the dogs mind you but they will be fine. 

 

32 cats that's really great work.

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.............

Just leave and provide for your daughter. What you've got now is not what most of us would call 'a life'.
