Nervous_Dog Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 So I am toldd the wife and niece are off to a wedding Saturday, and I will be very bored so I didnt have to go. Who'se getting marrried I ask? Then I remember a few weeks back getting a agitiated call from the Brother in law asking if I had seen his younger (26) brother. No, no one else had, turns out the father of some girl was pretty pissed and younger brother has done a runner. NOW it seems he his past has caught up with him and a 80 000 baht sin sot is being paid in 2 installemtns for the girl, who turns out to be 15!!!!! FARK, Brother in law, who is a very nice bloke doesn;t want to got to wedding, he's against sin sot for his own daughter, but rekons his younger brother deserves the "fine" Wife says girl in question is a really nice kid, who has no idea what a nice man is, and marriage will fail in a few months. Arrgghhhhh - someone make a TV show of this I think DOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooNoi Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Dog, Why were they getting married in the first place? Did he get her up the duff or something? What's the legal age of marriage in Thailand anyway? Different for guys and girls or not? MooNoi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Som nam naa. There you go. But: It's still better than younger brother having to marry a goat ...though... on second thought THAT wouldn't invariably create another unhappy existence... Family in the countryside: an always sparkling fountain of activities that make your eyebrows wander into the hairline. Usually I love it - but when it comes to "extended family" I have to leave it more often than not, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radioman Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Similar thing just seen here. Wifes friend has son from previous marriage, I think about 18, no doubt like most of us at that age his prime directive is to 'get some'. Girl is 16 lives a couple of clicks away. Once news gets out she has been 'got at' (no secrets in this fair land) Mama demands retribution for the loss of daughters saleability. Big money and marriage, village style, no paperwork. Nobody but the grubbing Mama wants this, demands it actually as 'Thai style'. Three weeks later daughter is back home, give it six months and she'll 'discover' another world! Comment: From what I have personally seen pretty much without exception amongst the non university schooled Thai public, any pre marital sex, requires marriage, or a very hefty payment. Cheers M.

elef Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Too close to BKK ND?, usually the guy pays a sin sot of 40 k, "goes to BKK for make money for the new house", returns 6 months later and the girl is pregnant 4 months! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
