After 18 pages, no matter how you debate it, it is hard to meet people in general. It is even harder in Thailand as a foreigner primarily due to the fact that there are a tremendous amount of damaged goods people here ranging from alcoholics, delusional sexpats, runners from their home country, drug abusers, Pedo's and social misfits. I am in no way saying that there are not normal folks here in TL living out a clean happy socially normal life, I am just saying it takes a lot more work screening out the DB's.
I to this day have not figured out the the guys who seem to be annoyed that another foreigner is in "their" store, "their" neighborhood, "their" condo complex. Its interesting to watch their body english when they see you.

#5264050 Financial Expectations Of A Thai Women

A few facts that may save a guy a fortune and a lot of emotional trauma from the Beetlejuice vault of truth and wisdom.
Cute girl sends out signals to a guy that she likes him.
After spending a passionate evening with her and a night of lovey-doveyness
with and perhaps the best sex the guy has had for years, he becomes smitten and can hardly believe his luck.
He holds her hand and listens intently to her pitiful hard luck stories and then wants to be her knight in shining armour, to the rescue, at any price, dreaming that at last he has discovered a true soul mate and love of his life. So believing in a dream the guy decides to invest in her for a good future.
This is how it begins and of course in most cases the result will turn out completely different to the guy’s expectations.
Three major clues that will determine if the girl is not sincere and giving a guy a load of BS:
It`s very simple. If a girl really likes or loves a guy, she will unconditionally follow him anywhere with no strings or provisos attached.
Her main ambition in life will become solely to be with her man without any financial stipulations and social limitations. She should in fact be proud and keen to show off her new boyfriend and let everyone know that he and she is now an item.
If this is not the case, then dream on baby, because it`s going to cost you dear and you are wasting your time.
Now, would I lie to you?

- The girl is not willing to give up any of her usual social schedules to be with the guy.
- Appears to have many relatives, friends, acquaintances or colleges that she prefers to keep to herself and separate from her so-called relationship with the guy.

#5208725 25 And Thinking Of Looking To Thailand For A Wife.

So why Thailand? Do you have a lot of experience with Thailand and the people? You're not making any solid arguements on why you believe this is a good idea.
Have you looked into the visa situation? It costs thousands of dollars and takes many months to complete. visajourney.com has EXCELLENT information about the whole process. Not to mention the thousands of dollars you will be spending on airfare.
How do you intend to meet Thai ladies? Just fly over to Thailand and start wandering around? Dating takes months and usually years before marriage occurs. In fact, you need it to take awhile to have your fiance visa approved. Oh by the way, you can't just stay in Thailand for several months as a tourist. They have laws against that. You have to do visa runs, or attend school full time in Thailand to get an educational visa.
It sounds like you want a more "traditional" wife. Well part of being a traditional wife is love of family. You expect her just to leave her family and move to Oklahoma? Are you ready to deal with people in Tulsa giving you looks because of your interracial marriage to a non-believer? Is Oklahoma to a point where you can just tell those people, "It's ok, I'm an aethiest"?
You're making a very big decision at an early age. There are many emotional issues as well as financial issues that you WILL run into. I'm just trying to throw out some questions that will make you think more about this decision. But please tell us this, why Thailand?

Why does a guy marry a hooker? Why are some not sure if she was a hooker knowing there is probably a fair chance if she is a bar girl?
Frequent sex, skilled in the bedroom, no headaches, no silly excuses like they have to be in the mood or they don't feel like it ..
I could go on.
It makes me wonder why any man would be daft enough to get married to someone who hadn't been a hooker.
Makes sense...
When she steels from you, you don't need to waste time investigating - you know who it is already.
When she doesn't answer her phone, you don't need to worry about her safety - you know she is with another guy.
You already know what she likes in bed because you can ask the other guys and compare notes at the beer bar.
You don't have to think too hard about what investments to make or what to do with your savings, she's consuming them all - Life is a breeze.
You don't have to worry about where to go out for a nice dinner - All she likes is som-tam.
You have no need to consider whether or not she is ok if you have to go away for work - Her 'brother' will come round and look after her.
Yes... anyone would be foolish not to shack up with an ex-hooker...

The constitution is dead, with virtually every liberty provided being constrained by spurious legislation such as the Patriot Act.
The US government closely mirrors it's Thai counterparts these days. Power elite feathering their own nests at the cost of their constituents.

Hold on boss......yes it is true that women are individuals and part of the excitement and interest in a relationship is getting to know your lady, however to suggest that generalizations are wrong in all cases is not on. I ( and no doubt everyone else here ) could do a list of ten things that 99% of women hate and that list would be accurate.
Therefore it is also possible to draw up a list of what 99% of women like.........everyone needs to remember that yes some guys may be "jaded" as a previous poster put it, however it doesn't get away from the fact that we have plenty of experience of the opposite sex.

I agree nothing wrong with generalisations however using sweeping generalisations to argues one's point of view is lazy. The moment you use "ALL" about something as diverse as personality you've got to know you're talking poppycock.
And although your argument is fair and reasoned, the topic was the key to a Thai woman's heart not 99% of Thai women's hearts.
In other news, I've never seen a fair and unbiased questionnaire generate a 99% swing in any properly constructed focus group so I believe I would struggle with such a list but hey I'll give it a go.
1. Nuclear War
2. Foul Body Odor
3. Being trapped in a cave
4. Biting into a mouse in your KFC bucket
5. Being hung, drawn and quartered
6. Getting run over by your husband's mistress in your car
7. Your boyfriend's Great Dane constantly defecating on your pillow
8. Constant nagging about your sexual past
9. False imprisonment in a Thai prison
10. Inattention
I believe the "like" list you will find a lot harder?!?
OK then.........
1. Women like to be warned that there are weirdos like you on the internet.
When I can think of another 9 I'll come back to you.
will the other 9 be dull and boring personal attacks or will some semblance of intelligence be utilised? Ever heard of attacking the argument not the arguer?
Och get over yourself.....it takes a special kind of mind to come up with Great Danes defecating on pillows. Anyway, let's have a go at a real reply.....
Women like.....
1. Men noticing something different....
2. Not having to worry about where the next meal is coming from....
3. Not having to worry about where their man is ( at 4.00am )
4. Not having to worry about their man punching their teeth in
5. Being free to see their friends without being interogated.....
6. To feel protected and secure.....
7. To feel appreciated.....
8. They like a man that won't wind them up with petty inconsideration ( socks on the floor blah blah )
9. To feel that their man still wants them sexually ( butterflies in the belly )
10. Not to be taken for granted.
Anyway, that's not a conclusive list, couldn't possibly be....I've no doubt that some people will agree with some points, and others with virtually none. I think the most important one is the last one.....not to be taken for granted.
I believe the number one cause of relationship break up is debt...no one really thinks to ask their prospective wife about their attitude to debt, and many people get a shock when one or other partner goes on a ridiculous spending splurge. I reckon the second biggest cause of relationship failure is taking things for granted. I reckon the female members here will be shaking their heads in agreement that they know relationships are dead or dying long before men do, because they can read these "taken for granted" signals faster. That's why so many guys get a shock when the door is locked on them....they thought they were comfortable, and they were, but their lady wasn't comfortable getting treated like a domestic slave with benefits.
I am at Sydney Airport, heading for Glasgow so I'll be offline for a while. I don't doubt there will be a firestorm of recrimination by some of our namby pamby brigade. I look forward to reading it when I get back.
Great Danes defecating on pillows.....mutter mutter.....who thinks these things up????

She lacked Visa and rightfully got declined at the border.
However, the line about:
...is worrying. Why on earth would she be threatened with jail time? It is not illegal to show up at the border and be rejected. Nor is there any fine attached to it. (The fines for the airlines is a different matter.)
However, the line about:

threatened her with indefinite detention and a fine of $10,000.

If a Thai lady was refuse entry at a US port even though she have a US visa, will that make news? NO. This Nap girl has no visa, so she should shut up, and go back the way she arrives. Even if she has a visa, it is up to the immigration officer at the port of entry to decide. I am sorry if she does not know that. The airlines is there to do a quick screening, however the responsibility is with the passengers. Airlines do get a fine when their passengers get rejected. Further more departing immigration does NOT care which countries you are intending to go, as it is not their job. If such thing can makes news, everyday tens (if not hundreds) of us (Thai women) are turn away from entries in various countries, with or without visa. Reason can varies if we are suspected of trying to gain illegal employment, or some because we are too sexy or dress like Paris Hilton. . . . . . There is discussion going on somewhere in ThaiVisa about such thing.
a bit harsh! what if the shoe was on the other foot and YOU misunderstood?!
same ruthless treatment applies?!
