From Thailand Retirement DREAM - To UK Life on WELFARE !! 🇹🇭

Most men will ignore the important lessons of this story. Why? Because they will believe that their Thai girlfriend /wife is “different” and “she would never do that to me!”

Don’t give more than you can afford.

I don't agree with the conclusion "...i should have stayed in Pattaya by myself". Actually you could have probably have stayed there with a week to week or month to month "company" at home for the even less than those initian 30K. As for "i was having the feeling i was there in holiday and not living there", i would have said, that moving out from "near the beach" so probably in the middle of the chaos, and go even just over to the dark side (the part behind Sukumwit/ Rail line) would have changed your feeling quickly and still have everything on the palm of your hands. And the most important lesson to learn before going to thailand (even as tourist) is learn to say "NO" even more if you want to live there.

[@davidhaylett1810]

Guys, the mistake made by fools like this is to think you can have a real relationship with a Thai woman as in having a gf or wife. You cannot do that as you will just be used as an ATM by the family even if the girl isn’t a bar girl. Instead you can have short term fun with a bar girl or rent a girl for $200+ dollars a month, such as a college girl. When her course is finished, change girl. This way you cut out her family and their demands because the girl has no leverage over you. She is just a rental. If you treat this women like commodities you buy, like a pizza , you will be fine. If you bring foolishness such as love into it you will come unstuck. These women will never love you, no matter what you do and never forget that

[@robertmaloney2255]

Exactly, they don't know how to love

[@davidhaylett1810]

@ Yes exactly, women don’t love in the modern world, they just love your money, your possessions, and what you can provide. So there is no point in locking yourself into a relationship as it’s of no benefit to a man. You can get all the benefits from a live in rental girl, and avoid the vast majority of the negativity that a woman brings

[@robertmaloney2255]

What a sad story. It's an easy trap to fall into especially if you are a bit vulnerable. Any man thinking of going to Thailand to form a relationship should spend a month or two in a none touristic area, he will soon discover the true reactions and interest of a lady twenty years his junior

It becomes a character flaw when the guy wants to keep appearances going even as the money has run out. And, of course, these guys knew their wealth was limited the whole time.
