    • Anonymous commented : laces are as common as having lunch at work. I think it is rude to call any women that you are having sex with you as prostitutes since they do deserve respect as human beings. Foreigners love to have sex with Thai women because they enjoy the relationships from these women. Otherwise, they would stay home and having emotionless sex with their local women.

    • Anonymous commented : can I get that sex with lunch you talk about ?

I would like to get engaged with her and then once she has spent some time with me in uk, i will ask her...

    • Anonymous commented : asked to acompany me to this lunch meeting - that I DONT BUY PEOPLE, its Illegal in my country and immoral & degrading according to the way I was raised. We have had many problems since that meeting with her parents. Since that time this young gal has tried to commit suicide, run away from her famliy and myself, she cutt off all communications with me and told me not to marry her as her family are what we had talked about regaing many Thai's and started to treat her as a ATM due to the fact that she had a farang boyfriend, she cheated on me with a other man. I felt It would be best if I hired an interpreting service here in Australia and talk direct to her mum via a Thai interpreter provided by my Govt. services, after that 1 and half hour chat with her mum on the phone that costed over $200AUD I caught a plane to Bkk 3 weeks ago and found her, we spent Sokran festival together on 2 of the Islands after having dinner with her parents and brother and they gave permission...lol...Her step dad said he respects me for bringing her back home after she had left to go live with that Sugar daddy Cult...and that I am a good man he felt... We went away together and spoke in detail about all the events that took place over the past 8 months. I am now back in Australia, and I am a little confussed but feel like I know whats going on. Can anyone tell me what they think of the above even though its in brief and I have cut a long story very short.... I would also like to know if anyone can tell me how much a 'Dowry' is normaly paid to the family? (Amount & Gold) Do legal agreements legaly cover my assets in Thailand? She has said she will sign any legal document from my legal advisers regarding the protection of my assets in Australia... Does a legal registered marriage in Thailand protect the Farang? Or does it differ from a Thai to Thai marriage? She has stated she loves me, and will be loyal as its the Thai culture way and she has been a good person to me over all, so I am split 50/50. No she is Not a Glamour, and not the type of girlfriend I have even dated in my life in any country, she is average looking, tiny/thin and short. But I must say I was and am attracted to her thinking pattern and level of intellect and do see potential as a real life friend/partner or what ever you wish to call it when 2 people have a meeting of the minds 'Soul-Mate? Thanks in advance... Thong Lo (my Thai nick name) lol

    First Impression - disappointment

    By Anonymous, Created on: 01/10/2006, Last updated on: 19/02/2008

    » Thursday night I landed on the new airport on a Thai flight from Korea. I expected some glitches and so I was not surprised when we had to disembark on delayed buses. I only travelled with handluggage to avoid problems with luggage handling. Arrival up to immigration and luggage retrieval was otherwise...

    • Anonymous commented : a few of us went looking for lunch before checking in. We had to squeeze through the crowd to get to the cafes and restaurants, which were very squashed and all packed out. There were no seats for us; finally we had to split ourselves up to take up odd seats here and there. The atmosphere was very oppressive; it wasn't a comfortable or pleasant lunch at all. To make it worse, the serving was miniscule at a hefty price.

    Is it normal to pick up the bride at midnight on the wedding day?

    By Anonymous, Created on: 06/08/2007, Last updated on: 17/06/2009

    » My Thai girlfriend and I planned to get married in Jan next year. Her parents went to an astrologer to find a good date and time for our wedding. Finally the date and time have been determined. However, it seemed a little bit strange to me about the time that astrologer picked. I was told that...

    • Just-1-Voice2 commented : was not the local "free lunch kitchen". What's somewhat surprising is that family (brother,sister, 100 cousins, etc.) all love me and think I'm the best thing that's every passed through immigration, so go figure. I consider myself one of the lucky ones, and can only shake my head at those who go into marriages with women half their ages, thinking they're going to find bliss and happiness, and end up finding themselves missing a few thousand baht, or actually dollars in some cases, and then going: "What happened?" When we go into the city of Chiang Mai, my wife and I both laugh at some of the "couples" we see and both know what's going on. That's not to say that there aren't some couples who are happy, and both love one another, but let's face it, those are the exception and definitely not the rule.

    » There is a brand new trend in the village I stay up here near Chaiyaphum. Young people strip their motorbikes of everything “you don’t really need” like; lights, protections, exhaust pipes, silencers, mirrors and so on and then go on the streets an “do the monkey” on their bikes, specially...

    • Sean Moran commented : y driven through once and had lunch on the way back the next day. Very peaceful sort of place by the look of it. Have you heard any new hit songs on the radio about someone riding around on a motorbike with no muffler installed? Maybe it's the latest Lydia song behind the craze?

    ** ABUSIVE MARRIAGE TO FARANGE, CARE 4 HIM FINANCIALLY

    » I am here to share my personal experience. And I’m not here to offend anyone. Hopefully I can open your mind to reality to treat Asian women with respect. In 1986, I was a young beautiful naïve Thai girl, 20, who held onto the Asian tradition. For this reason I stayed in a miserable marriage....

    • fast eddy commented : I thank you for the compliment. It is difficult to summarise the situation which is so broad on so many levels. Culture shock is a series of ups and downs - first year or so one's sure one's in utopia and one defends it to the hilt (virtually speaking) and then over the course of time the rose glasses slip and the discovery of a murky undercurrent is akin to the deepest betrayl from a loved one. Then one rationalises, compares and contrasts and so the process goes on... I think that is why a lot of us contribute to the forum and our places along the journey are at so many differing points that (hopelfully) we can draw strength from others to get us over the hump and back to the warm fuzzy feelings or pick up some sound advice to help us to avoid a big crash just waiting to happen Anyway, having been out here full time for 17 years, I've very little recollection of what I left behind - though I do accept that I was out of the uk before PC became the norm so have never bought into it or have been affected by it. Perhaps this comes across in my postings As Father Gibbons used to say to me, my bro and sis when he came around for Sunday Lunch 'I call a spade a spade'! cheers Fast Eddy
