    If something about Thailand comes on the news (You know trivial shite, airports closing, bombs in BKK) my mates n I turn up the TV to listen while my misses and her mates ignore it and continue to sit there eating rotten fish.

    You've met the midget. She has actually said sorry on occasion. Obviously, not as many times as I have, but that's hardly surprising.

    She just uses me for sex, won't let me pay the bill when we go out to dinner and won't tell her parents about me because they want her to marry a Japanese man.

    I work for 3 months at a time away and always ask her for some pictures to email me. She doesn't know the first thing about computers even though there has been one in the house for 10 years and all she has to do is go to the internet cafe and they can send them for but she just never does it and I have to hassle her for days to do it. Said she was going to send some on my b'day but took her another two weeks to get around to it after hassling her every day.

    last time I left as I was walking out the door and she decides to ask me how to start the computer, well, she had 3 months to ask me that but waits till I'm walking out the door!

    Just doesn't think it is important that I at least get some pictures not to mention the video skype calls we could have been making with her and our son.....

    It's not that she hates me (is it?) but just the Thai attitude we all know. Loss of face about having to ask someone to do it for her, making herself out to be stupid to others, and general laziness.

    I want to watch a documentary and she wants to watch a film. I give in and after 45 minutes she gets up and goes for a shower.

    Other than that she's damn near perfect and i know i have a few more faults than her, although i am mellowing with age

    Another thing. Too tidy. I get up in the morning, and thanks so some miracle, I remember that I've got to return a mate's DVD, so I scrabble around in the cupboard, find it, and leave it on the sideboard next to my keys to remind me.

    Two hours later, when I'm ready to go to work, I pick up my keys from an otherwise uncluttered sideboard and go to work. My mate says "Have you watched that DVD yet?"

    I get back home six hours later, and it's back in the cupboard where I found it earlier that morning.

    Repeat the following day.

    Apart from that, perfect.

    not married to a thai anymore, but the ONE thing that really got to me (and this applies to every thai woman i ever met), is the way they use the oven as a 'kkin refrigerator.
    WILL also always use thos crappy plastic plates that they love so much on which to leave the stuff to rot for days on end in the oven, periodically returning to gnaw on some smelly fish bones or chicken feet.


    ...........then an unsuspecting civilised person comes in and switches the oven on to preheat before popping the roast in, and after a few minutes the stench and acrid smoke signals the beginning of yet another hour- long session with the oven cleaner and a scraper, removing the molten plastic and rotten fish bones while the wife looks on, sulking because some stoopid farang ruined the snack she was going to enjoy the next day.
    ....and the next...
    and the next!
    brrrzzzzt, brrrzzzt!
    beep!. ting, ting
    redirecting, please be patient..........:

    hello, insect!
    brrrzzzt, brrrzzzt..................

    I love that mine is constantly cleaning up, but no matter how many times I ask her not to, she insists on organizing the clutter on my desk. It may look a mess, but I know where everything is. It never fails I know a bill is due to be paid and can't find it.
    Life is a state of mind.

    How about when the girlfriend wants to eat something your not interested in?

    I'll sit down and wait at some place while she eats some boiled dog turds or whatever and I'll eat nothing....then, I'll get something a little while later and we'll be driving along and she decides she likes the look of what I bought more than the boiled dogs turds she ate back there. She starts eating my stuff while I'm driving....because its a share thing.

    Every fecking time

    Ha ha, yeah the food thing on the table for days.....not right that. I've sometimes had a peek under the wicker basket covering it when I'm starving and just stared at it...and the trail of ant's emanating from it....and just couldn't bring myself to do it. I'd rather ride the 10 min to the sewen.

    Always saying "up to you" when she won't make a decision and then when I am forced to make the decision, she isn't happy about it and only then tells me what she wants.

    Talking during films. It's especially annoying when she begins an anecdote and I'm forced to pause it.

    The amount of social network websites that she's a part of (facebook, hi5, myspace, Tagged, etc.)

    Other than that she's wonderful!

    Scary, I got no complaints.

    But, yes, the 05.00 grope for a poke is waring . One does ones best.

    The "up to you" issue was resolved a while back. Just give it back at 'em

    It works.

    Obsessive cleaning ................... go for your life.

    But it's all up to you.

    New furniture & dishes become old very quickly, and my falang house is quickly falling apart.

    Theres not a single plate,dish,cup or saucer without at least one chip in it, she washes them, then chucks them any old way into a pile on the dishrack, toaster(still turned on mind you).

    The kitchen table,coffee table and breakfast bar, have all been used at one time or another as a convenient chopping board

    The leather lounge suite has had nail polish,polish remover and other unknown thai made concoctions spilled all over it, it used to be black, now, its shades of white, brown, red, green you name it.( the carpet as well)

    Plus other countless, mindless infractions all over the house.

    Her solution to all this is to just buy another house & furniture when this one falls down, thai logic

    Most irritating? Addiction to internet games but I am an internet addict too so I cannot complain much.

    Apart from that she is perfect. I am sure I have a lot more irritationg habits she has to take up with.

    I am very glad and obviously lucky that I don't have to take up with what some of you seem to endure.

    Most things mentioned on here are not too serious. I wonder what our partners would write about us if we gave them the opportunity to write about us?

    The gf told me the other day that a farangs wife who lives around the corner was telling her she's had enough of her Brit husband, she was saying she has to put his boxer shorts in boiling water as its the only way she can get the skidmarks out of them

    I am sure that would not be a good idea that's why I won't incourage her to write about that.
