In post #107 I said,, " I was referring to choosing a woman who brings something to the relationship rather than choosing one who brings nothing other than her body." And, in post #107, I said, "why do so many men accept a relationship with women who bring so little to that relationship?" For example, my wife of almost 40 years provides great counsel; because she is intelligent, capable and has OUR best interests at heart--that is a great asset. I can also always count on her to do what is best for us, not just for her. She has always taken care of me in all ways. And, for the most prurient of you; she is still a very attractive woman--according to our 32 year old son's male friends. And, even though she was not wealthy when we met, she was eager to learn. She wanted to make something of herself. I did not need to encourage her to go to school, gain marketable skills and have a good career; she wanted it for our family. Those are great assets.

Maybe you can point me to a handful of posts of posters showing concern for their wifes and partners? They are in every thread discussing the new 400 in the bank extension requirement. You don't really want me to go back and read all those threads do you? Edit to add one, " Is`s time fore your wife and all wife/husband to wake, soon the all money are gone. No one pay food, rent,gas,school money to children+++ so start to complain to the Head Office of Immigration in Bangkok." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No burden. You make the payments and when you die have a will and use the money in the bank to pay off the loan. Any other questions or you can say, "well ya that works."

spidermike007 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Even better yet, tell your wife to band together with her friends, and start pressuring this government to start making things easier for ex-pats here, and not more difficult. It effects their lives too. This hapless administration does seem to be responsive, when they are openly embarrassed and widely criticized, online. Start some facebook forums. Start some instagram forums. Get the word out there, about these draconian fools, and the xenophobia rampant at the highest levels, at this stage of the game. Shame them into showing a modicum of decency, reason and respect for the ex-pat population, and an appreciation of that these guys bring to the table.

I should point out they work for the government. But so do many other Thai women work as teachers, government clerks and nurses ....... no problem getting loans. Half of the women who work in Thailand are not rice farmers. Not to discount the rice farmers though as they also have methods of borrowing money.

They are also generalky only known to those closest to them or in a relationship with them. Unlike you, who judges and sees only what he wants to see and insults women and other peoples relationships with your baseless assumptions. I have known, seen, heard and read about numerous men complaining their wives don't care for them; don't do anything for them; cannot cook, clean or even carry-on a conversation; that their wives spend all their money; placed boyfriends/husbands/customers/family--even water buffalo-- ahead of them; required them to support family, friends, and lovers; generally made their lives miserable, etc., ad infinitum. Haven't you? Yes, I know some men are happy with their wives; I am. Some even seem to be "happy" when their wives act like the ones described above. However, many more appear to be unhappy; just look at the divorce and/or separation statistics. If, in your opinion, that makes me see only what I want to see; I certainly disagree; because I don't want to see that. I am certainly not insulting women with my comments; the comments are more of an insult to men. Namely, why do some men put-up with it? Hence, my questions. As far as insulting other persons' relationships; again, I wonder how? If the descriptions fit your relationships; then it is an accurate description. If it does not, why would you be insulted; because I have noticed so many relationships which have gone wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems your gf is actually willing to do some things to please you your ex-wife would not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
