Guest Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 With all the horror-stories about guys marrying a thai girl, buying a house, that has been taken over from her family or her new husband and loosing a lot of (sometimes all) money, I think, marriage with a Thai gril is a no-no for me. So, no sinsot for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 ZERO! No offense to those who opt to pay, but as the Farang generally offers a TG and her family a brighter financial future, new house for mama papa, bike for sister, buffalo for brother etc., etc., why does a farang have to pay ... for the privilege to pay?! The farang should be *receiving* the sinsot, IMHO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The farang should be *receiving* the sinsot, IMHO! No offence taken. In my case i chose to do so..no pressure from her or family..i just wanted to do ""the Thai ""thing. In the long term the money will come back to /her/me. They own a large plantation at floating markets..3 sisters and one brother..so they will end up with the business at some point. We met in Sydney and all has been of my doing...with pleasure. Ri dont forget there is love involved in these sinsots..not just a cheque book. I agree that in some cases the story can and is very different. BTW...you have a Japanese GF..not Thai :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsab Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 I am the crazy guy who answred a million... but I have to say that my gf paid some of it herself, and we got in exchange a new house in BKK... and her family paid for the complete wedding... so I made quite a good deal...
