I just saw this thread and got interested because of my current infactuation with my Thai girl. I have only read till page 11. It seems a long way to go till page 31 but I do intend to read them all.
I am wondering already what happened with Zzzz and his thai GF as it has been more than 6 months now.
I must also compliment Cmore post about falling in love on page 11, maybe he forgotten what he wrote but I would say it is a really good post.
Just some comments - as an Asian, it is not such a strange idea for a man from my culture to support our woman, infact, I think it was a better way before roles are all got confused and things got complicated! The problem is not in the supporting but the worry of them taking us for a ride and making us fools!

I'm like SoiMagpie - only just discovered this thread and must say it got my attention! It surely ranks as one of the most interesting and sincere discussions on any of these Thai forums.
I'm one of those suckers that "retired" a BG!
What I like to know: why is everybody knocking farang guys for trying to have longterm relationships with TG's? I know I am having the best time of my life regarding relationships right now (with my TGF). Even if it lasts only for as long as it takes for TGF to get everything material she wants (1 or 2 or 5 years), what is so different to western relationships that only last that long. (50% divorce rate in the USA was mentioned)

Here in my country, divorce rates between locals are just as high.
So would you like to share your story? How long have you been in the R/S? I for one also find it ok as long as they are not to greedy and intend to scam all your money without any heart at all.

What's the R/S, Soi Maggie?
My story is nothing new, it's been told a thousand times in these forums. But anyway, I believe there are a lot of guys out there that just can't get enough of it, so here it is:
arrived back in BKK last May for the first time in 27 years!
Always wanted to go back all these years but family and kids "got in the way". First girl I talked to in a bar in SC escorted me back to my hotel... Spent a whole month together. Back to Oz for 6 looong weeks, going crazy knowing what she was up to even though I got her an appartment, sponsored her and assurances of "miss you". (I think she turned into a parttime freelancer) The whole of August we spent together again - was a lot cheaper this time with very little accommodation costs, no more lady drinks, BFs and a lot less shopping! I think she started to warm to the idea of being with me then.
Most of September was spent in Europe (alone) and then back to Los again for 7 more weeks. During the August visit I got introduced to 3 of her sisters and one brother and unbeknownst to me (I was told this is a welcome to the moo-baan ceremony) we also got engaged. Plans were also hatched to fix up her parents house that was left to her when they died.
During October and November the "fixing up" of the house turned into building a brand new one, it should be completed by the end of December. Also during this time I believe my GF actually started to like me and she now means it when she says she misses me.
At this point I have to say that she never asked me explicitly for money - not even the fee for the first night was discussed. She certainly never asked me for money to build a house - it was entirely my idea to finance that project. During our time together I would quite often give her all the money I had on me to pay for something. She would always give me back the change, even though it may only have been a few baht. She also would tell me to stay out of sight so she could negotiate a "non-farang" price. She always gave me bankbook, passport, IDcard, ATMcard etc to take care of - I trust you, you take good care of everything!
I am sure that I know more about this girl than many other farang about their GFs because I told her from the start: NO BULLsh*t, NO LYING! I got to hear a few things that maybe I did not want to know, but I'm sure she did not leave many surprises in the cupboard. Remember all this was (is) a gradual thing and she was starting to stick to it because she could see I was sticking to my end of the bargain.
Until I get back in mid January we are limited to daily reports of the building process via telephone.
I don't know yet were all this will lead us. But I figure that even if this relationship would end in the near future, I will have no regrets. I have never been on such a high as during those last few weeks. Never been so happy. I believe it has been money well spent even if she "locks me out of the house tomorrow"!

Its okay brubo1.....as far as you are happy. The money is useless if you are not happy in life unless you are taking somebody's else right and spending on someone else.
Thats your money and you have all the right to spend it on yourself for your happiness. You have no reason to doubt on your girl until you saw something wrong going on.
Keep it up fella....life is short and money will be peice of papers you earned by hardwork but if you didnot get chance to spend it on yourself.
crop till drop !!!

brubo1,
Your money, your life and it seems like you are having fun. One bit of advice. I would only loan money to a family member one at a time and I would have them sign IOU. I would tell everyone until the first loan is repaid, I won't be able to loan any more money.

I always have this nagging feeling at the back of my mind that it is about money. Always about money and although you may love them they are thinking about money and maybe just a little bit about love. Such good actresses?

why is everybody knocking farang guys for trying to have longterm relationships with TG's?
I'd guess a lot of guys have been badly burned in the past (very easy to do if you go in with unrealistic assumptions and expectations), and now have a vested interest in believing the whole deal is impossible and only for suckers.
Of course, much depends on what you mean by a 'long-term relationship'. Obviously, there's an enormously wide spectrum of possible relationships between a one-night stand and a life-long partnership.
Imho, it's not very difficult to develop satisfying (and not obviously exploitative) relationships with BGs, but you need to define your own terms. Most of the trouble comes from trying to force these relationships into conventional moulds imported from back home. This is do-able (there are occasional success stories), but it's terribly difficult. Much easier if you just bin the rule-book and try to build something different based on the local realities. I think this must require some rethinking of traditional Western notions about love, money and the relationship between the two.

Bros, Do you think there is any correlation between the age of a BG and the chances of successfully pursuing a long term relationship?
Example, do you think there is a much better chance of having this with a 32 year old woman as opposed to a 22 year old? I imagine that as a lady approaches mid to late 30s she begins to realize that her days as a marketable babe are waning. Seems that she may be more open to putting bar life behind her and really putting everything shes got into making a relationship with a Farang successful.
Anyone have experiences or thoughts on this??
