AF16 Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 When we bought engagementrings in Thailand the saleslady told us that we had same faces. Good !!! apparantly. I took that as an statement saying that we were equally placed on a beauty or lack of beauty scale. When comming back to my country severl other people have said the same, and when I came into a friend of my wifes appartment where there were a Thai party they all again said the same. 'Same faces' will stay together a long time. What just lies in the 'same faces, live together a long time' consept? Does it simply mean that if neither one is more attaractive than the other the likelyhood for staying together is higher, or is it some part of a superstition ... Dun no..

Fiery Jack Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 That's interesting. During the latter years of my marriage, people often openly commented that my ex-wife and I had the "same face!" i.e. totally pissed off and haggard with stress and wishing to christ we'd both never clapped eyes on the rotten useless cunt we were unhappily hitched to. jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaiLuk Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 When thais say "your face look same" it does not mean you are the same on a beauty scale. Has more to do with two people who are together become similar to each other and is reflected in their affect. Could have it wrong tho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
