The number of times a "normal" girl has changed her tune or tried to change mine, even after I have made it very clear that the relationship is all about a fun shag would be the same as the number of girls I tried to shag!!!!
Give me someone without hidden agendas or motivations and previous baggage any day!!!!

Exactly, compared to their farang sisters they are quite predictable and, even better, they have much lower expectations of their man than does their farang counterpart.
I wasn't going to add to this thread again but visa2003's post and a couple of things here in farangland in the last few days have got me needing to vent.
IMHO courtship of a farang woman is like running an obstacle course through a minefield blindfolded compared to the once-a-day text message or occasional phone call that can keep your Thai girl sleeping with nothing more than your photograph for months on end.
Once married even a herd of sick buffalo is chickenfeed compared to what staying married to a farang woman can cost you in a $$$ way.
Two examples of the high $$$ expectations from marriage with a farang woman that have crossed my path in the last two days (- both are older guys, 50’s - wife around the same age.)
Farang husband one has been married for just over a year, he moved into his wife's rented place and rented out his own place - now the rent has gone up on the wife's place and he recommends they move back into his place - she refuse's because it would always be HIS place and is insisting they sell his place and buy a place they can call THEIRS - net cost in $$$ of that maneuver in the current market with tax, agents fees, moving costs - about a year's salary for the guy -
Farang husband number two has been married for a lifetime and has two kids, they always promised themselves a world trip when the kids finished high school (both kids over 18yrs old) - that's where they are now but you need to have the kids off your hands for a while to see money stay in the bank - no excuse - she was promised the big holiday and won't take no for an answer - last heard he is increasing the house mortgage and they'll take the trip later this year.
I am not saying that all farang women are the same, any more than I am saying that all Thai women are the same – I am merely quoting two real-life examples, common examples I would say, of the type of financial expectations that must be faced in a farang-farang marriage. I read daily on this board about sick water buffalo and money wasted on making "face", this is simply the other side.
So what do I like about my Thai woman?
Her expectations are so low that even I can meet them!
