[@themacker894]

You have a good dog. Thai women expect that a guy will be the provider, and they lose respect for you the second you're not. They also take care of their family and if you marry them, you'll be expected to help other family members take care of elderly parents. The good news is that Thai families are very accepting, as long as you are good to their daughter. Helping them financially will be a delight. The jealousy thing is a little scary IRL. Don't date serious Thai women if you're a player - stay in the bars and have you fun with the bargirls. Twenty-nine years of experience here, and I think you have a good read on Thai women as well as Western women. Never had an American woman come over and do my dishes / clean the kitchen during a date. ;)

As a married woman it’s great you are supportive of your partner being as financially independent as she wants.

@KidsandCats22 when I first went to Thailand it was exactly 20 years ago in 2004. My Thai female friend was still a college student but it was vacation time. After my tour in Thailand it ended in Phuket where she attended university. By the next morning I needed to get my laundry done. I asked security if there is a place outside the hotel I can get it done (hotels are notorious for charging by the piece). He told me next to the hotel there is a lady who does laundry. I went to see her she took the clothes then gave a price. My friend grabbed them from her. Told me she will get them clean. Unknown to me she actually went back to her dorm room and washed my clothes then brought them back later. I was surprised I told her she should not have done that. She said the woman wanted too much money (150 bahts at the time).

I think Thai women expect men to pay for bills (if you’re living together), and food and dates etc. But I think it’s a red flag if they constantly ask for expensive lifestyle, gifts, and allowances (like a sugar baby).

Bro bro - Briefly saw a snippet of your workstation at the beginning of this video. Being that you spend hours in front of the screen, I'd recommend getting some sort of laptop stand that elevates it to head level so your neck doesn't suffer later down the road. In addition to the laptop stand for elevation, perhaps get a separate full-sized keyboard so it sits under the stand for added comfort to aid in your tasks.

You are still new Paul and your opinions will no doubt continue to evolve over time and you are surely influenced by the woman in you life. Everyone is influenced by the people they meet here in Thailand and usually that is a very small subset of people who speak English and make their living off foreigners. With over 70 million people here and tens of millions of visitors there is every type of person you can imagine. The only question is whether you can find your group here. Personally I prefer sports, gyms, classes, groups and organizations over online, clubs, bars and shopping areas. My only advice to anyone is take it slow, learn the language and don't fall victim of your own ego. If you are a 2 don't believe that you have miraculously turned into a 10 overnight.

Good video. I would add unless you are just on vacation and want a good time, like the video says, stay away from the red light women in Bangkok. They are beautiful and are on social media and often are the profiles that leap out at you when looking for dating in Thailand. They are very experienced in getting your money and they often live lifestyles that would make a far left women in the west blush. They are not the conservative women that most foreigners think when they think of asian or Thai women but they will act that way to take advantage of you. They will also play on your belief that because you are foreign you can get them and date them, even though very attractive. Meeting regular women though this video is very true.

I think you should make a video about the red flags to look out for. Because, you gave suggestions that can lead men to run into a lot of trouble with dating Thai women. If you dated enough in Thailand then you know there is a high probability of meeting bar girls and freelancers who are on these apps hustling. While you mentioned some red flags, I don’t think you mentioned enough. I wouldn’t recommend dating on Tinder because depending on where you are aka Pattaya majority of the women there are going to be bar girls and freelancers on that app. Even in Bangkok there are a portion of women who are involved in all of that and men should be aware it’s not all sunshine and rainbows as you make it out to seem, likely not intentionally, I get that. But, it should be brought up and men should err on the side of caution & have their guard up until they figure out what kind of women they’re dealing with. Most of the women on those Facebook groups sharing men who they’re dating also tend to be freelancers and bar girls or they know a lot of those girls. It’s mostly used to communicate about those men as clients to those women. I’ve seen plenty of convos from those groups and that should be a red flag if the woman you’re dealing with is in there. This is why I personally prefer Filipinas but everybody is entitled to their own preferences I suppose.

Thai culture respect people, so the lady try not let you to lose your face. She will talk to you with equal respect if you respect her, not creepy approach. You can ask her directly whether she has a boyfriend or not. Foreigner has good reputation among many Thai ladies, so don't firsting around as a playboy. Do you know why many Thai women prefer foreigner? One of the most important answer is because Thai man is firsting around too much. The reason for Thai man approach many ladies is because there are too many beautiful women who are difficult to resist your mind. Finally, Thai men has some negative reputation among those women. In conclusion, there are a lot of beautiful ladies in which it creates high pressure among women as well. Once she wants to be in serious relationship with you, she will easily get jealous. There are pros and cons for these behavior. Many men, not only foreigner but also Thai men, find that it is difficult to handle.

And no, they are not cooking and cleaning for their western partners. They have nannies and other staff to take care of the household needs which gives them the time to pursue their professional and social lives. They would find your point of view regarding Thai women insulting. Of course, this is not your intention I am sure. But please do not forget that there is another Thai woman who does not fall into the category you describe, just like there are different categories of women in all the world. It just depends on which pond you swim in.

Of course. These are generalities and my intention is not to insult anyone here. But to your point, successful women (and men) hire staff because they have money. The average Thai working class family probably isn’t able to afford as much staff, so they might resort to the tradition of the woman/mother taking care of the house, while the man works more.

[@faithheyison]

@@iPaulLee yes of course. It depends on the society experience and level. same as everywhere in the world.

@faithheyison I believe that you (a white woman who doesn't see how difficult it is for affluential American Black men to come to Bangkok and just starting meeting successful) will never know the problems some men face when we first in Thailand. Thai women upon our arrival! I have lived in Bangkok for 7 months now, and I learned to speak Thai in 6 months. It is very difficult for me to have a conversation with Thais because they are so SHY!!!!! How on earth do you meet decent Thai women if EVERYONE is so reserved and so conservative and truly thinks every Black person they see in Bangkok is from Africa? Local Thai women are SCARED of Black American men and the only way people look at me with respect is if I pay two women to go eat with me at a fancy restaurant, now everyone looks at me because I am spending 15,000 to 20,000 baht in CASH and the see that I have more CASH to THROW AWAY! This is what I have to deal with as a former banking lawyer now living in a very respectful and luxury building here in Thong Lor, Bangkok!

Money

[@ChuckHolland-i4b]

Farangs have a higher earning potential. Period. End of story.

[@eddiejohnson4434]

But this video isn’t about farang, it’s about dating Thai women

[@ChuckHolland-i4b]

@@eddiejohnson4434 Then your missing the point. The reason farangs have so many options to date is their financial status. That's what dating for Thai girls is all about. Your money.

[@davidbkk171]

They are only concerned with what passport you have and how big your bank is

[@singas2854]

My Thai sister in law want a foreigner with a big 🍆 add that to you list 😂😂

[@apptrade]

Bigo bigo wechat, and line. Do not do bumble, no tinder, no CMB. That’s western BS. All the thirst traps are there.
