Felt 35 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 It should not be a problem if it is true love based on honesty and faithfulness. Many were separated during World War II, but shortly after the War they married and a little later my generations came into the world.???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real people getting separated by a government policy - its awful, unnecessary and absolutely horrible. Those foreigners who are married (with a marriage certificate) can apply to return, but the process is convoluted and not everyone can afford it; in many cases only business class seat are available on repatriation flights and the ASQ hotels are not cheap (>30,000 baht for 15 days). For others, not married, there is no current route back which is outrageous. A horrible world situation has caught people out Thailand is not easing this burden at all by forcing them to remain apart. Still beating that same drum, then. Sounds like you're abut to burst into tears? 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do these couples in love give thought to families who's love one are in a foreign war torn country doing their duty for their country.

It does baffle me why this gets people's noses in the air. I give my Thai GF a monthly allowance. She is 23 years younger than me. She gives excellent value in return, and I can say with confidence after 7 years with her she's had far less impact on my wallet than the two Western women I was with in long-term relationships. Can't recall either of them giving me a massage after golf, or cutting my toenails. I can recall them stinging me for half my assets. Virtually all transactions with women involve cash, irrespective of nationality. Unless one is a bar stool warrior who has so much sex appeal they snared a brewery heiress. But then, I wonder why they are on TV. 7 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

from the home of CC Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 maybe if these folks had partners that were from countries that didn't have runaway disease rates perhaps it wouldn't be as big an issue, maybe aid in cleaning up your own pox filled streets and perhaps it will be easier to visit/stay.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Scot123 Posted September 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 12, 2020 There are some very bitter and twisted people on here maybe through jealousy or their gutter minds. I have been married to my Thai wife for 14 years we have 2 children and my wife is well educated "degree" and from a good family (sisters Dr and accountants). Oh and when we met she was 24 and still a virgin so this myth that Thai women who marry foreigners must all be bar girls or financially desperate could not be more further from the truth. In fact a lot of my wife's friends who married Thai men all seemed to want to find a foreign husband and the reason was never money as they all have good jobs the reason always: loyalty and love. Have you ever been involved within the Thai community in your own country? Yes some wives were working in bars but by god the ones I have met are all doing well, working hard and helping provide for their family and also helping their parents back in Thailand which should be commended and not ridiculed. I'm sorry but women are women the world over but for my reckoning Thai and Philippine wives that I have met all have a tendency of being the cream at the top. 7 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In many cases good excuse not being able to enter Thailand. And in addition many Thai girls/prostitutes have not only one farang supporter. If they would come all to Thailand at the same time...... overcrowded. ???? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTB1977 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Any one who enters into a relationship with a foreigner who comes and goes knows there will be times they will be gone for months. If you read between the lines seems their financial support has been gone too long. And the thought of actually working and making money scares the <deleted> out of them. Why not just find a side John that lives here and see if it pays out better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same age (now both close to 65). Lived together in several countries as man and wife - visited many others. But now she is stuck in Thailand and I am stuck overseas. i imagine someone else has already posted ............... if not, that law was made obsolete a long time ago. 32 years ago my first land wife and i bought had to be in someone elses name ( we used her parents) No longer the case nowadays........ though land offices usually want farang to sign saying the money is hers. But land easily goes in spouses name now. So get married and stop living in sin 555 (joking, Yinn) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaiyaTH Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 (edited) "People have left negative comments on the site like "loving a foreigner is not real love it is only about sex". Reminds me of my engagement in the village, people were only asking why she took a foreigner and how much money it would get her, not interested wether I would stay in the picture, what work I did or anything like that lol. Was entirely about money with most. Edited September 12, 2020 by ChaiyaTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
