Do it. I was in the same situation some 6 years ago. If you have enough money saved, or a pension to live on, then you can make it. My only regret is that I had not done this 30 years ago. The Thais do thinks somewhat differently than my home country, but that only makes daily life more interesting. After 30 years of marriage, I left all of my material things behind and came over to Thailand with only two suitcases of clothes. I now have a small new home upcountry that is paid for in full, a paid for motorcycle, a paid for 5 year old pickup, and no monthly debts other than elec., internet connection, satalite TV.
It took me over 300 women before I found the one I am married to now.
Whatever you do, do not fall for the first one. It canbe, and has been done many times,
but keep your eyes wide open.
