I mean, I showed up with only my passport and money and they let me in for almost a month

@Geir *******

being unfamiliar with Thai traditions I had no reason to believe otherwise. I do know they have weird traditions with bride price, and the groom giving the parents gold, lots of financial type of traditional things this seemed right in line with the rest of them. Anyway I probably won't be getting another Thai girlfriend because of this.

@Geir *******

we chatted for a good 8 months before meeting, no money was talked about. Then we meet and everything seemed great. I decided that she seem to have good intentions. I then asked if she wanted to be my girlfriend and was hit with some Thai tradition about giving her a weekly allowance or something. Which wasn't a big deal as I give her about 75% of what she was currently making, which is fairly small amount in US dollars.

However if I happen to forget to send anything on payday she let me know.this went on for about a year. the issue isn't I wasn't willing to share I have no problem sharing the wealth. I want her to be grateful of what I do and give her. That's all I ever wanted

So since I don't speak Thai my last Thai girlfriend tried to boss me around and only get money from me whenever I visited. She snapped her fingers at me one time and I left for the day. Thought about it and messaged her saying if she wants to continue we will have a conversation about it. I got back and she said I treated her poorly. I literally flew around the world to be with her. And she threatened me by saying she was leaving me, I told her I'm not going to beg you to stay. And she walked out. I believe she was expecting me to beg her to stay. Moral of the story, women are the same everywhere in the world. They just want to use you for what you can provide them.

Yep, normal

Why

You are good, fly in, walk through immigration, they stamp you for 30 days

I had already purchased my phone long before my trip but what I ended up doing was bringing a spare phone, purchased a sim card for it, turned on a hotspot and then connected to it with my normal phone and enabled WiFi calling. I kept my normal phone number and all and it called like a normal connection and I'm from the US .

This group is FAR from bad, I read through the comments on your last post and the worse ones are mild. And I believe there are helpful comments on it as well.

Not sure what's going on, currently walking through Patong and all the massage ladies are pointing out my 711 tank top I'm wearing, kind of feeling like it's a joke shirt I shouldn't be wearing,lol
