What to do?

PostAuthor: dougness » June 17, 2008, 11:52 am

Its funny how almost everything comes down to money.I have been married for a year and a half.Things got off to a rocky start,but I thought things would improve with time.My wife has lost her sex drive,maybe its the stress shes been under?When she was trying to catch me,it was high,now its horrible.Thers always a reason,migraine,sore stomach,no sleep,ect.I haven't seen her for 5 months,I thought she would be all over me.She spent money earmarked for other things and did not listen to me to be carefull with the money I sent her,before I came back.She understands English,very well.She will not come to my country as long as her mother is alive and then may not come at all.She uses the argument that my money goes further in Thailand,than Canada.She has a sense of entitlement,due to her previous marriage.She grew with a family that made less than 20,000 baht a month.She spends all her excess money on her family and cannot keep to a budget.We have zero in commen.I don't how my marriage can last too much longer.We have no children.What to do?

I think if you re-read you post a couple of times you might come to your own conclusion. However, if I were in your shoes I'd run and not look back.

I totally agree, cut her loose, it's the only sensible option.

1. Put her budget (for say 6 months)
2. Explain to her how you see things and where you want improvement
3. Give it 6 months - if no joy then run away

Well,nobody can answer that for you!You have to do what you need to do to make things better for yourself!Whether it is cutting her loose or finding a way to reach a better understanding!Long distance relationships don't really count for time together,IMO!

I personally would be asserting more control over my hard earned money and the direction that my life was going in the relationship,especially in the early stages that you have been in!

Imo,many,if not most falangs spoil there GF/wife very early in the relationship,therefore the problems become difficult to change when recognized!But ,if they are making you miserable,you will continue to feel the pain until you take some kind of action to change the circumstances or yourself!IMO,the sooner the better!

I would bet that if she believed that you were sincere about not accepting the direction your marriage is going,there would be immediate change!Whether it would permanently solve the problem,no one knows,but there is little doubt that some action is necessary!

Good Luck!!!

first thing you have to do my friend , is grow some balls. in my experience thai women want the man to take control, and its obvious you havnt. tell her straight what you want from her and the relationship, if she cannot except your wants and needs, then wave goodbye.

I suspect that you are posting here because you have already made up you mind but want confirmation, so here it is: Confirmed. She is only interested in money. The sooner you end it, the better.

If you dont mind I will tell you a similar situation I had with my T/W.At first,sex,sex ,sex!Then It was money money money! We had so many arguments! Also violence. She has bashed me.cut me with a axe (2"deep cut!)left me alone all day in the village we stay.I tried to "have balls" take contol ....not work!
In the end I had, had enough She came at me with glass bottle!
Im afraid I laid her out.So later she got 4 locals to beat me up with sticks.could not walk for 2 weeks !
I was so f...ing stupid.I put up with that 5 years.I thought things would get better.They wont! Leopards dont change their spots!
I lost everything.but although I not so well off now,Im so glad I left It all behind!
I have a fine lady now, we never have a problem! She is my friend,lover,my life.
My life has turned over!
Piss off away from her f... possessions leave It all behind.There are so many really loving kind women out there.
As for sex,Its me declining in that area! I am never refused.Thats how It should be
Once or twice a week Thats ok with me.
Hope all end up Ok with you Doug.I know what your going through.Ive been there!
