    What an incredible story! Thank you so much for sharing this, Richie. My Thai wife and I have been married for nearly 24 years now. We come from very different places and cultures, but that truly enriches our relationship. I cannot imagine my life without her. You're a storyteller and that's a compliment. I smiled a lot watching this video. Thank you and may God continue to bless you two.

    Hi both , I've recently found your Channel and love the advice you give.
    I'm Chris from the UK , 56 and fed up with living here , what site did you meet on ? .
    I've tried a couple of sites and they were no good , i know if anyone asks for money its a bad sign , that is what was happening so i gave up .
    it's great to see you've found such a lovely wife , i'm so glad for you both , you look a lovely couple , cheers ! and i hope the coffee shop is doing well , Chris .

    Lol! What an encouraging story and funny too about how you went to that island without even video chatting Ritchie. Loved it. I’m like you man. Done sooo many different online dating sites over the years and been on quite a few dates and wanted to give up. Gave it one last chance and have been talking with a wonderful woman who lives in Bangkok and we video chat daily. She won’t even let me buy her flowers because she doesn’t want anyone to think she only wants me for my money not that we’ve talked about it lol. I plan to apply for my visa in Feb or March and hope I don’t have to quarantine but willing to do it to get into Thailand and see her.

    I remember you said you met on tinder..my experience and my advice is to talk online to girls you can meet in a few weeks or you already there..i tried during the pandemic to use tinder or other apps but as you cant travel to thailand for at least 1 year or more, i noticed on my side of me getting bored of girls who feel alone mostly and look desperate for a bf and on their side they disappear after one day of talking, i suppose they chat with so many men (and always tell you you are the one only ahahha). One lady from bangkok i matched on tinder she did a tiktok video screen shooting all her tinder matches and chats she had hundreds of men chatting to her and she was so excited as she even did the gold..eventually she found the one now together. This is my experience

There is a 10 year age gap between us and a few of our best friends relationships. It works and it’s what you both want. That’s what matters. Like that beach too. You sure it’s not Krabi 😂

    Great story. i went online dating on Thai Cupid back in 2019 after breaking up with my long time GF. It was really just a joke as I was using it as a learning ground for *real* online dating and never really expected to meet anyone. I didn't really find anyone suitable (they either had kids or couldn't speak English very well) until right at the end of my 3 months membership. Then Ribbin replied to a like I had given her, and we chatted and got on well.
    We met on Koh Kood January last year and I was like you - is she real? is she going to show? Is she a man? LOL But we got on fabulously and I knew she was a keeper when she took a secret video of me nodding off on a beach chair that was *extremely* unflattering and she was still laughing about the next day!
    Then Covid hit and we have been doing long distance now for the last 16 months. That has been difficult and not without it's moments, but we are still going stong and I will see her again in 2 months. Should be interesting and hopefully wonderful :-)

      @@Sagan_Starborn well Stevo it's all good news. My Thai GF Ribbin and I did 18 months long distance during Covid, then I met her in Thailand last July and we had an EPIC 7 months going to EVERY island in Thailand diving and mountain biking and we got on famously. Not without a few good arguments but that is just working out how we live and love together as we are two different people from two different cultures. I returned to Australia in March to save more money and sort things out there, but met Ribbin in Singapore over Easter and right now we are in Bali diving and still as in love as ever. She is awesome.
      I can only hope you have as much luck as me. Thai women are a little different from Western women and you kinda have to get used to their ways, but if you find a good one they are amazing.

She is amazing. We call our selves a couple even thought we have not meet face to face. Thailand Covid19 restrictions are driving us crazy. She speak perfect English has a degree. She has a great job. She has invited me to come live at her home when I can get into Thailand. She is 27 beautiful and I am 61. I tried to push her away at first telling her I am to old for her. She did not care, says I have a kind heart. I am looking forward to the future. She has never asked anything from me.

    I was married 27 years to an american women. I think the culture here got to her. I put her through Nursing school. She completely changed after that. Divorced me with 3 kids after 27 years of my life. My neighbor committed suicide after his wife left him. I had to watch as they took him out of the house. I decide right then that wont be me. I won't let anything or anybody destroy who I am. I looked 2 years online for the perfect women. After much prayer I found a good christian women from the Philippines. Everyone told me she was just using me to get to america. And yes , shes 12 years younger then me and very attractive. Well my friend. That was almost 10 years ago. My wife treats me like a king. Shes so sweet, loving, giving, hard working. Its amazing. I'm so grateful and blessed to have her in my life. Thank you father God. You do need to be careful because you can get scammed. But I'm with you. You have to keep looking. And Online is the only way to go. God bless and take care.

    Been married and divorced now moving to Thailand my kids grown up and I met the perfect person in a village near khon Kean at a Buddhist wedding
    She'd never been out of village even seen the sea but she was an amazing person who looked after her dad while her sister worked and sent her money to look after her dad and house
    Her dad died last year I was with him he asked me to take care of noi and 9 year old daughter who is amazing moving out there from UK permanently can't wait march I think
    Then life begins should have done it sooner

    Congrats, nice story mate. I was on Phi Phi when the Tsunami hit and indeed that very beach before it, luckily my accommodation was elevated and in the middle of the island. Pretty sure that resort was operational and unfortunately got hit by the waves. Also, on sunset beach, far right corner there was a little bar (hut) , sunset bar. Run by a thai guy and his English wife, had a small daughter. I always wondered if they survived the hit, i didn't see them around over the couple of days after during cleanup etc. Anyway, best of luck to you both, Phi Phi is a magical place.

    Great love story mate and I wish Maybelle and you a happy and long marriage, subscribed love your up beat videos. I was set up and met my now Thai wife, effectively on a blind date. I had a friend go back to NZ from Australia and asked a Thai lady she knew, if she had knew any nice Thai girls that she could introduce me too. My mate hassled me to go and all I had was a black and white photo of her, I arrived in Bangkok and the Thai lady from NZ picked me up and we drove north for 5 hours, I didn't even know where I was going, but ended up in a small town in Korat. I think it must've been love at first sight as I couldn't take my eyes off of her. When I came back to Australia, I got a few snide comments from a few jealous people with a narrow view of Thai woman. There are just a few knockers, with majority of people actually happy for you, anyway I've been married for two years now and look forward to many more, so blind dates and online dating actually still works.

Good for you looking younger than you are and Maybelle looking younger? Beautiful couple and enjoying your channel, enjoy life peeps and hopefully see you guys when travel opens up, and yes Maybelle, offer to pay half the bill is special, good on you for that☺

    Great vlog and story! Richie you don't appear 'older' as to me you appear quite young. Can I ask what are your ages. If that's too forward then my apologies. I have always met girlfriends when I was younger at parties, through friends and through work. Dating was never a problem because I find with online dating it's like putting up a list on a menu. Whereas in vivo I can crack jokes and my personality comes across straight away which can over ride the superficiality of online dating. What dating site did you use? I'm very happy for you and Mable and I have just subscribed to your channel. Many thanks and all the best for you and Mable's life together!
