      สวัสดีครับ My wifes Thai husband left her. She told our friend that she knows I won't leave her, she feels secure so I get the best from her. The fun part of her being 16 months older than me is her being asked if I'm her ลูกเขย which started in our early fifties, and the stunned reaction when they find out that I'm her husband.

    This video is excellent for treating the topic thoroughly. I would also add, younger woman are usually not jaded; they don't carry "baggage" from past unsuccessful or abusive relationships that interfere with them opening their heart fully in a new loving relationship.

    Thank you for another great video! As an older man from America, you give me a lot of hope that I can meet a respectful, younger woman in Thailand. I liked your other video about how to find a quality woman too. When I come to Thailand, I plan to follow your advice and take some classes and meet smart, interesting, and respectful people.

    Thai women are very beautiful even when they are in their 40s and 50s. A guy does not have to date a 22 year old Thai woman (unless he wants to) to have a beautiful companion. Having the option to date women of all ages in Thailand is very nice!

    I'm 66 and my Thai girlfriend is 43. we have a great relationship. I take care of her and she takes care of me. I love her and she loves me. women are women everywhere but culture matters.
    everywhere I go people think I am in my low 50s. I look younger than I am. so I think that play s some part in our relationship. I don't look like an old man I don't feel like an old man and I certainly don't act like an old man. having been married twice in the US to women that were 4 years younger than me, what works in that culture does not necessarily work here.
    as far as your points of the video I think all of them are valid and true. You obviously put a lot of thought into the video and I appreciate that. money is a necessary part of life and to deny that is foolish. the fact that as a foreigner in Thailand I have much more income than my girlfriend is what it is. she lives on her income but not well. my contributions to her help her have a better life as well as her daughter. her contributions to me make my life better. it's a win-win for both of us!

    I met my Thai wife when she was an 18 year old college intern. I was 49 then working for a client in Bangkok. 31 year age difference! We dated for two years then married in the U.S. 14 happy years ago. Shes 33 and I’m 65 now. She’s amazing and the love of my life. She became a US citizen, and we now have a beautiful daughter who we are raising in Thailand now! It can work and it’s not all about money - believe me!

    If any young lady decides to date a man who is much older than her. More older the better, if you know what I mean.. Fundamentally, no woman will marry a poor broken old man of course especially if a woman came from a wealthy family and well educated. People always say "No money. No honey" 😅

    If there is a age gap, financial stabilty is essential but not sufficient condition for a relationship from the younger partner. The older partner does not want to spend their older years alone or attending funerals as a social function or talking about health issues all the time.

    I'm 62 and my gorgeous Thai wife is 31. We live in southern California and are a normal, married couple. In the US, a relationship like this would probably be a non-starter for the woman. But my wife has a great life here with me. Lots of women back home are jealous of her!
    Truthfully, a woman in Thailand who wants a great life with a farang husband faces long odds. Most men she is likely to meet are only in Thailand to have a good time and not interested in a serious relationship. Young western men in Thailand have been spoiled with choice in women and are now serial-dating cheap Charlies with Wilt Chamberlin type numbers. The older, retired guys who are much more common are typically on a budget and don't want a permanent relationship; they want a maid/cook with benefits. And if she does find a great guy who is in Thailand on vacation, bringing a Thai woman to the west is a huge amount of work and very costly. Few western men will carry through with this endeavor.

    There is a formula that says her age in relation to 15yo should be doubled for the man. This means that a man that is 25 should have a gf older than 20. A man that is 65 should have a gf over 40. This is what is what is acceptable in the west. It is not strange that these numbers might be tweaked in Thailand so a guy of 65 might have a gf of 35 or even 30. I am 65 but looks like 40 what you see is what you get! 😂

    Relationships are transactional around the world. As long as both people are consenting adults, it’s nobody’s business but their own. I am 67 and my partner is 17 1/2 years younger. We have been together for three years and live a simple but happy life. If others think it’s wrong, we don’t care!! We will live our life and others can live theirs. We all have the right to decide how to live our lives without judgement as long as we don’t hurt others.

      That is why men have blue pills, fingers, tongues, and toys if needed. The thing is if it's all about sex and/or money then it's doomed to fail no matter what. Make better choices, as an older man I would never date a sub-30 lady for anything more than fwb, not that I don't like and appreciate them but what are you really going to have in common and to talk about. Yes, there are exceptions but I am talking in general. Anyway good luck to you looking for a Thal Filipina, I found mine. You can find yours.
