TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying to extend your STM2 visa in Thailand, various reasons can be provided. Common suggestions from the community include stating that you enjoy being in Thailand, citing tourism as a reason, or mentioning personal circumstances such as a family issue or health concerns at home. Some humorous suggestions include spending money to support the local economy or personal relationships. Generally, written reasons may not be closely scrutinized by immigration officials.

That’ll probably work. Or you could say “extending my holiday/vacation”, or that “my BFs mothers family buffalo is sick and I need to stick around and pay for it to get better.” I suspect they probably don’t take much notice of what you write on that form, just that you’ve signed the fact that you acknowledge the penalties for overstay.

Yes, that's a perfectly fine reason.
