Csaw Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I'm noticing not really. They don't give it and if they do its painfully mechanical. And when you give it to them, they don't seem to know what to do with it. Or is it just me? And by the way...i'm talking about women born pre 80s.

Esso49 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Well maybe as you are talking about women pre 80's , and I am assuming by that you mean the year, then perhaps as they are certainly the older set, then they have not got all their teeth left so hence the "sweet nothings" they say to you is garbled and you just don't understand them? ???

Nyezhov Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 They seem to like me and I'm a sweet nothing. Unless I wake up on the wrong side of the bed, then I'm a cranky nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tropo Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 The question should really be: "are Isaan women into sweet nothings with partners they love?". For the best answer, you're going to have to talk to Thai men. Even if a foreigner was getting a good response from their Thai partner it could be a sweet game.

wwest5829 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Just one old guy's observation. On the one hand I had read about the Thai social order before coming. Hmm, so if you are caucasian = that is a plus, if you have or had a professional career = that is a plus, if you had some age, you were seen as more respected (and more likely to not go chasing younger girls = thais a plus, and if you had a steady source of income =that is a plus. Sure, plenty of signs of valuing the money ... but ... the other side is also seen. Spending time with family, having fun together is oft seen as equal to or of more importance than seeing how many "things" you can gather. So, there you have it, as usual I can see the different sides demonstrated in the culture. I have been most fortunate in my experiences ... or maybe its just my outlook.

Toscano Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 From my experience married to a now 57 yr old 14 years , the answer is NO . My wife is a head teacher currently away in Bangkok at a teacher's seminar . Yes , we are exchanging Sweet Nothings by messenger on our phones , but when we are together there is little intimacy . I know other men who experience the same . Thais of an older generation don't hug and kiss , it is not part of Thai culture . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacessit Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Thais are not particularly demonstrative in public. Alone or behind closed doors, it's different. It's that way with my GF - very playful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky mike Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Rare to see open displays of affection in public, however Thai women I have found to be very loving in private.....just a different culture, respect goes a long way...and they do appreciate you being faithful....

Sorry you've had such bad experiences with the women in your life. I know so many men who come to S.E. Asia looking for love after not being able to find it at home, only to find that they can't find it here either. I always tell them that the common denominator is them not the women they have known.

Nope they come on TV and complain bitterly about it. "She's only with me for my money". Then when you drill down it's "My Farang wife only wanted me for my money, she took me for everything I had when we divorced." Sad losers who are clueless with women.

DILLIGAD Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I've listened to enough people in bars in Pattaya, to know exactly what route their life has taken. It's true that no one knows what the future holds (no one knows that better than me) but as far as I can see into my future, the future looks rosy!Very pleased to hear it.

marcusarelus Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 My dog is one of the sweetest beings on earth (if she is not trying to kill you). When I get up every morning to take her for a walk she gives me the most wonderful looks and licks my hand and walks in front of me to make sure nothing is going to bite me like snakes or poisonous insects. My wife has a sweet moment two or three times a month (180 seconds) and almost cries when she thanks me for taking care of her and supporting the things she wants to do and managing her healthcare. The rest of the time it is like basic training in the Army and she is the drill sergeant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I taught my wife how to make decent coffee, then I told her that she makes it better than me, never had to make a coffee since. Since then I've told her that she does the washing up better than me, the garden, the ironing, manicures etc. No wonder I've got so much time on my hands.

According to Professor Pigeon, the best way to sweeten a Thai lady is to look into her eyes when you talk and look at her lips when she talks. If, as is sometimes the case, she has outstanding atributes, then these should be looked at (as opposed to glancing or staring) to give her confidence whilst in your presence.
