arrowsdawdle Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Many has laid their lives to waste due to broken heart and relationship problems, somehow, for the gone, it made sense to end it all and not to continue to suffer, they will, someday, cure most of the world's ailments, but never cure or mend a broken heart...... Wouldn't it make more sense to kick somebody's ass rather than punish one's self? Certainly, despite conjectured intent, nobody else is punished by such an action...first responders that have to clean up the mess notwithstanding.

DogNo1 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Suicide has been an honorable "way out" for centuries in Japan. Not many people jump in front of trains. Many commit suicide privately. Some localities have what are called "suicide forests" where many people drive their cars to a secluded spot, seal up the windows and doors and light up a charcoal hibachi. Death by carbon monoxide poisoning is quick and painless. There is a lot more suicide going on in the world than people seem to be aware of and Japanese people often take their whole families, children and all along so that they will not be a burden to others. Also, young boys and girls sometimes committed suicide together so that neither would be left behind. Maybe suicide is not really dishonorable unless it puts a real burden on people left behind.

Certainly, despite conjectured intent, nobody else is punished by such an action...first responders that have to clean up the mess notwithstanding. That's always been my mode of thinking. I've never understood those that say, 'They, him, her, made my life miserable so I'm going to show them by killing myself.' That guilt trip doesn't last long if they are as bad as you think, because they may be unfeeling, unremorseful psychopaths, so they just move on to their next victim without missing a beat. Usually, people that kill themselves over bad relationships and money problems have mental issues. I've had four long term (8-11yrs) marriages, never once, did I ever think about killing myself when they ended. I didn't even go to drinking or drugs for relief. It was more like, Oh well, that's over, I wonder what's next, attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoffy66 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 NEVER TRUST EM, NOR (WORSE) LOVE EM, ALWAYS PAY EM N QUICKLY LOOK FOR THE NEXT ONE... What a callous statement, one day you will realize , just how much being in-love with a woman does to your feelings, and some of the small arguments that do happen can make you think that you can not live without that person, i know from experience that you do not think clearly and never about any other persons or property, inconveniences , the mind does some silly things, even when help is just a phone call away, including the number on the wall beside the phone, NO i do not agree that it is selfish, and yes it is a mental illness, even though it may be short term.

Straight8 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 No man is worth killing yourself for either. Damn right, but I have yet to hear of or read about a woman jumping of a building for a man from a broken heart. I'm sure it has happened but the ratio of man to woman suicides from a broken heart would be 1000:1 ???? Time for the male species to get a grip, start up the brain cells and realize that life is too precious to throw away over a woman. This nonsense just has to stop. Imagine the sentence you are placing on those most closest. It's a cowardly act and and not fair. A broken heart will pass, they always do, but life, at least for this man would have possibly gone on for another 50 years and beyond and in that time many more happy times can and will be had.

Straight8 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 She must have put him on some emotional and mental rollercoaster. Common practice for Thai women to farangs here. Only if the farang is foolish and stupid enough to allow it to happen. Really, if you as a farang are not having things your way or on your terms (this will almost guarantee to elliminate the rollercoaster) you're effed (or will be eventually) Most of us over 40 are too old for this sh!te, enjoy the second cycle of your life as stress-free as possible I say.

Straight8 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Would this be one of those: I will show you ...Just you wait and see scenarios gone wrong. If that was the case then it is sad without a doubt that a person could be so emotionally distraught over a girl as to go that far and take his own life. What further can be said other than: RIP Sadly if that was he case, he really didn't understand women in general, let alone Thai women, who would not give a hoot.

You don't need to put up with women's crap, any woman. Around 40yrs old I stopped connecting with women I felt had mental issues. Some really hide it well, until you get serious with them, meaning, after marriage, then, it comes out. No longer the princess you thought she was. I'm sure, women will say the same about men. Killing oneself over a broken relationship, men take the cake on that one. I believe, its because the thought of another male bedding their former woman is unbearable. A male ego thing. Women tend to key your car, burn your clothes, destroy your stereo equipment, computer, cellphone, tv, and show up on your doorstep when they know the other woman is there. They love making your life miserable for the wrongs they feel you did to them. So, killing themselves is far down on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlindMagician Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Another case my 'posthumous suicide tax' idea might have prevented. If you know your next of kin will be penalised, it should at least make you stop and think. No next of kin? Those more likely to comit suicide will be more likely to be relatively poor, maybe racing nothing is not a deterrent. You think that the tax issue will be in their mind when they are in such a mental emotional state? Think of the relative weight of threats. A bit of tax versus whatever the burden is that moves them to suicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotchonrocks Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Taxing suicide punishes more the sufferer relatives than it does the perpetrator and if the hope is so lost in the person, do you think the taxman is going to make them rethink their actions. Get real if you do. Having lived with a daughter who had depression in her teens, I can assure you it would not. What is needed is a support network which like Beyond Blue in Australia is a help centre resource that those desparate can reach out to. I am not aware that anything of the like has been set up in Thailand. It is sorely needed in this country because we must understand the reason that some come here. A proportion are searching for something and it may be a hole in their life. When the reality sets in that there is no solution and the bottom falls out of their world, there can appear to be no alternative. Organisations like Beyond Blue can be crucially helpful in situations where people have no support network which can be the case in places like Thailand for foreigners. Given there are many retirees in the LoS, perhaps a group can get together to help with this idea. Then it needs to be promoted to the appropriate audience. RIP to this young man and to his family we must feel for. It is those left behind that suffer the most as his problems are no more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisinth Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Why would you kill yourself for a dime a dozen Thai girl? I unfortunately didn't know her as well as you seem to have done. But, i can't get it out of my head that this girl would be devastated after hearing the news of what happened and in deep shock. Of course without knowing her, i could be completely wrong. You obviously know what all these 'dime a dozen Thai girls' are like.......................... RIP French Guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveAustin Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 No penalty for those who have been diagnosed mentally ill. This is intended to cut down suicides by those who are just a bit depressed. As I've said before, depression isn't mental illness. Besides, nobody would be fined as such. The tax would be paid out of the deceased's estate - it just means that those who inherit get less. And as someone has pointed out, suicides can have a public cost - all that cleaning up, inquests etc. A tax seems entirely reasonable to me. And what of those who have not been formally diagnosed? You were doing ok until 'depression isn't a mental illness' but there is just so much wrong with your flippant comments. All I will say is this; while jumping off buildings and in front of trains might not be the right way to go, if you or any of the other dolts nonchalantly berating them could share their pain for just one day (people suffer for years on end without respite), you would likely be looking for the nearest window yourselves. In fact, I think everyone should have the privilege; you know, just to spread the burden a bit... it'd certainly separate the men from the boys, and there are lots of them on this thread it seems. Btw, depression is a mental illness; being down, a bit off-colour or I'm feeling a little depressed today is not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttthailand Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 First of all I don't think taking the easy way out is acceptable unless you are in daily pain that will not stop and have tried other means to find relief. Maybe not the correct way but if someone drove me past my limits and made me so crazy that I would off myself I think I would also be crazy enough to take them with me.

Millions of people lead a loving, wholesome satisfied life with their partners by trusting and loving them. Only a miniscule few spend their whole life patronizing a new prostitute every other day. I have a long time relationship with a wonderful, loving and caring Thai woman, (many years already). She even has her own ATM card that is linked to my own account. Never, ever has she abused this! Of course there will be women who will abuse this, but if you think that all Thai women are the same than you are dearly mistaken my friend! I know 'farang' women who would gladly empty my account! Don't paint all Thai women with the same brush, there are many good Thai women out there, but I think you won't find them easily in a bar or brothel. Find yourself a nice lady who has not been 'run over' by a thousand sweaty, stinking and drunk farang and you will have a fantastic partner for life! I know I have.. Well said Buddy------------ Ditto for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you know your next of kin will be penalised, it should at least make you stop and think. I heard they do this in Japan. Something like $100,000 for people jumping in front of trains. Sure. Penalize other family members because one has severe mental illness. Way to go. You think the families suffer enough in dealing with a mentally ill parent, spouse or adult child, then pay the government for a act not in control of said family. Speaking from personal familial experience. Who says they're 'mentally ill'? The point could be made that 'offing oneself' isn't entirely sane, but there again that all really rather depends on what the definition of sanity is in an insane world. And I doubt there are many among us who haven't been touched or affected by a friend or family member's suicide, so enough with the sympathy card.
