Passport Bro Marries a Thai Bar Girl (how it all happened...) | One Night in Bangkok Podcast Ep. 007

[@footballsupportersforfun8607]

This must be the most naive conversation about bar girls I ever heard 😂

Maybe she only talked to customer for Ladydrink 😂😂😂

[@johntheaccountant5594]

We all know that "This bar girl is different" and we know what the outcome is 95% of the time. Simp comes to mind but good luck to him. Couldn't take a "bucket shower". Wimp comes to mind. She doesn't sound like the type of girl that would enjoy living in the USA permanently if she loves going back to her family in Isaan. I am sure that a lot of us would like a yearly update on this relationship.

[@lessons8708]

I thought the same thing about the bucket shower. Little girls take that bucket shower. Old women take that bucket shower. A grown man couldn't? I hope it does work out with the bar girl, but if not the shit is going to feel a hell of lot more uncomfortable than a bucket shower.

[@deansta822]

Both of you 4-5 years in Thailand. Still so naive on how it all works. Hate to say it, She’s using you mate, you’ll never be number one or ten. You’re her sugar daddy now!

[@Tommy-ck6dv]

Don't get it twisted...the host knows lol he's just being a friend

[@silasketgaskets8709]

let him enjoy his fantasy or more precisely, delusion. really wish him luck with that. i recognize him from tik tok, the bar girl apologist. i have known some also and some used to come over after work to hang out (not for money) one in particular, was a bright eyed bushy tailed sweet girl that could not believe all the attention and all the money these foreign guys were throwing at her. (i read, write, speak thai) her english was very poor at that time. never forget the time she came over and asked me which one of two guys she should marry. she showed me the judging criteria; photos of their houses and cars. said one guy told her one of his cars is special, a porsche. i saw it was a 924 (basically a volkswagon) and that that model is nothing special and even frowned upon. i think she chose the other guy. also recall the occasional long distance phone call she would get and she told me to be silent if not go to the other room before she answered. a few years pass then shockingly (sarcasm intended) she calls my name from a beer bar in bangkok. lived in america, marriage over, back to work.

[@Ukboss1]

Yes she just wants to come to America to work she will dump you once she gets to the states

[@DigitalNomadInvestor]

Yeah, agreed, 4-5 years here does not make one a veteran of Thailand or its culture by any stretch of the imagination. As Matthew said to Leo "Those are rookie numbers." Especially when you spend it chasing content for KZbin. But it's a start so that's good. Good luck with everything!

[@brentbandrews]

I would have been more optimistic if she was a "normal" thai girl and if they met under different circumstances and I'm wishing the bro all the best but the odds are severely stacked against him and his naivete is palpable in choosing to start a relationship with his first bargirl "experience", him having to "insist" that she stop working in Soi Cowboy and even worse marry her in the US of all places with a 56% chance of divorce and this is further compounded my her potential isolation from family/friends, culture shock, the brutal Boston winters and those inevitable "how did you two meet" questions from friends and coworkers. I would love to see an update in a couple of years.

[@Wilko11]

Spot on

[@fallen546]

His naivete seems almost willful. He's helped the girl craft a narrative that he can accept, and he's sticking to it.

[@mancello]

She works alot because she has to work to help her family. You will never be number one to her because her family comes first. You need to understand Asian culture.

[@pepeee548]

Bar girls are the easiest way, always available, not have a proper job, always ready to listen and take care. Try to get a proper working girl, educated with University, with a normal daytime job, not drinking smoking or partying, where can share costs, not always free for make holidays with men, might be harder but tourists cannot get that…

[@Digi4DD]

Some of them still treat night life as a side hustle, but it's way less common. Waking up for the morning shift is a big factor

[@ThailandBound]

Great chat guys really enjoyed listening to your experiences while here in Thailand 👍

[@OneNightinBangkok_]

Thanks, Peter 🙏

[@stevehatten209]

Im 60 years old and a passport bro for life. I've been in and out of Asia since the 1980s. Joining the Navy at 17 years old and marrying my first Japanese girlfriend at 19 years old. I've never had an American girlfriend. it's too late to change now, and I would never want to either. I'll be returning to Bangkok in December. I just meet girls and treat them very well but will never marry again. Beautiful Asain women are the best !!!

“Just by sitting with customers and having some drinks and not compromising yourself”

[@Loff3t]

He is both right and wrong here (in the end statement). Some of the bar girls are there to use naive men, they actually already have boyfriend and so on.. so if you thinking to get serious with a bar girl, you got to check things out for real and dont be a fool.

[@mikemassino]

The success rate for these relationships is low

[@OneNightinBangkok_]

Agreed.

[@ermd96]

Eric, thank you for your interviews, just found your channel a few days ago and I'm catching up on all your videos. This video gave me flashbacks of a lot of great memories. I can completely relate to your friend in this video, nearly the same thing happened to me 20 years ago, right down to the lady from Sisaket. Finding a lady that had good values, meeting the family, their simple life on the farm. Bringing her back to America and marrying her. 19 years later we are still together and travel back and forth to Thailand a few times each year. Just wanted to let you and your friend know that he's not the only one to do this and things have worked out great for me.

[@OneNightinBangkok_]

Thanks for sharing your story 🙏 I think a lot of people need to hear it

[@jeffrice4713]

These guys actually believe every word a thai bar girl says. So hilarious.

[@sonhuynh8222]

These guys will never learn. There’s one born every second.

[@k9companion231]

Words of wisdom. Never buy a rental car.

[@Dmanz67]

Why did she go to Japan? To complete her doctorate? High level diplomacy?... This guy determined to find out how things work the hard way.😂😂😂

[@Black-Circle]

yeah that's highly suspect as well. I thought she was devoted to her family not taking a trip to Japan

[@pickupautist]

How did you not burst out laughing the entire time? This guy is a GIFT.

[@cms1879-qy7hb]

every farang that falls in love with a Thai bar girl feels at first how this guy does. That’s the scam. the fact that he doesn’t see anything wrong with her is a huge red flag. Why marry her so quick, dude? Why not have her live with you and just be your girlfriend?

[@OneNightinBangkok_]

Not disagreeing with you totally, but it's been four years. How long is enough?

[@lessons8708]

@@OneNightinBangkok_4 years of living under the same roof? nope. how about 4 years of living in the same city? Nope. Country? Nope. These bar girls have boyfriends all around the world that never find out. It hasn’t been 4 years of consistently seeing each other. How much time have they spent in person? maybe a few months out of those 4 years. Weeks even. And there was a pandemic where airlines were closed, so cut the 7 months of airline shutdowns out of those 4 years. I feel bad for him

[@cms1879-qy7hb]

⁠@@OneNightinBangkok_I’m talking face to face. It hasn’t been 4 years of in-person dating, not even close. To answer your question: 1 year of living under the same roof is enough time. Love your channel, and you should have annual follow-up interviews with your friend. I hope he proves me wrong for his sake

[@arendlouw8178]

Lovely story Eric of your friend and his future wife. Trust that she will adjust okay in the US. Are there any more photos of the couple that they are willing to share on your channel?

I have met bar girls that only accept drinks in Soi Cowboy but they were very young. He spent the night with his girl on the first night. Does he believe this was the first time she went with a customer? He know there was a negotiation to pay her for that evening. Maybe all this is all a cover for her for his friends and family who will see this video. I'm not suggesting she is not an awesome woman worthy of all of his love and devotion.

[@pietromora2297]

Yes your story is grand, although the outcome will be interesting. I appreciate the fact you've met the lady of your dreams, and will end up with her forever. It sounds like a fairytale , but that would be 1 in a million. Anyway cheers and good luck. These ladies are different in everyway compared to each other and all other ladies. Your life ahead and always depends on your experiences with others and how you treat their character.

[@LUCKHEF]

No mention of payment to her family ? Odd … I live in Thailand and Farang going to women’s village usually pay her family but he didn’t mention

[@mikemassino]

Otherwise known as sin sod. It's a scam

[@OneNightinBangkok_]

Is it a scam if the same happens between Thai man and Thai women?

[@LUCKHEF]

@@OneNightinBangkok_ Thai man pays WAY less and the women’s Thai family will know if that Thai man has money or not and might have compassion if he can’t pay … with Farang MOST times amount will be more and if can’t pay MOST Thai family will rather have daughter with Farang who has money and will pay !

[@snitchy87]

​@BLACKEYETHAI my thai wife's nephew was asked for a large sinsod from the family of an ex because they knew his mother had migrated to the west. So it's not just about getting money from a farang it's about getting money where they think they can get it. She refused their demand and so they broke up. I told my wife l did not agree with sin sod and to their credit they did not care, so l paid a very small ceremonial amount that l decided on.

[@limegreenpatato]

It depends on the family and now a days even with thai/thai weddings its common for the family to just give it back to the bride and groom.

[@MegaLKproduction]

Yes but they are from the US and probably never have been in Europe so they don't know

[@inlovewiththailand]

Great interview and I hope their relationship will last forever. But Eric, after watching this video, I don't think you ever can call thai bargirls good or bad anymore. Just girls who want to make money or not. I remember from other episodes you call bar girls who want to make money (bad girls) and that doesn't do them any justice if they're just trying to make a living and support their families. Just some food for thought

[@OneNightinBangkok_]

No, you misunderstood. Girls who lie, cheat, and steal are indeed "bad girls." That's not everyone, really just a small percentage. But they are out there and should be avoided.

[@inlovewiththailand]

@@OneNightinBangkok_ yes I agree on that but on the episode with the 2 Thai girls on dating you referred to bad girls as girls who are there to make money vs girls with regular jobs. Just saying. I know it can be complicated for first time visitors but not every bar girl is a bad girl and this episode shows that. Or at least, the future of your friend and his girl should show that

@@HarlowCamryn thanks for the headsup

[@DaveyB-uo5ts]

Thx is for the video. Appreciate a positive story with a current or previous bar girl. I was hoping your guest/friend could offer sone advice. I have a white color job working in the Finance industry with a good salary. I’m currently involved with a girl that works at a bar in Pattaya. I’m from the States also. We’re looking to do the Fiancé visa so that she can visit here for 90 days before we move forward. I understand that’s not what it’s for but that’s our intention. Once we marry, We’ll eventually be splitting out time between the States and Thailand each year as my career allows for that. I am concerned that we may be hitting some issues that I’ve seen in other visa KZbin videos that concern getting her the visa. - Age difference 20 years - she Works as a bar girl - Short time knowing each other…few months Not sure if there’s a big age difference between your friend and his girlfriend but it appears that she did work as a bar girl. Was her working in the industry as a bar girl create an issue during the interview process in getting her a visa? Appreciate your help. Best Dave

[@Wilko11]

He looks fairly young, so probably not that much of an age gap. Sorry to tell you but if she works as a bar girl in Pattaya, she is likely still doing it while your not there. Even if your sending her money not to. I've been going there for near 40 years and have seen it happen so many times. It's common practise. Been stung myself but not too badly, as I did some investigative work on her while away. Although I was told I was her only one, there was a number of us being told the same thing. It was all smoke and mirrors. If I was to go with a bar girl now it would not become serious. Good luck.

[@indiegirl2306]

Mmmmm....shock...covid happens, no customers so goes back home and works for the family. So what do you tell your friends and family when they meet.... she's a farm girl? 🙄. Funny how because they are called bar girls in Thailand it's ok.
