Advice to Western Men seeking a Thai wife

An online survey and focus group of men both Western and Thai has provided clear advice for other men who are also seeking a Thai wife.

Thousands of western men use online Thai dating to find a relationship with a Thai woman which they hope may lead to marriage.

It helps to understand what makes a successful relationship from those who have married Thai women.

Much has already been written of the pitfalls of a relationship between a Western man and a Thai wife.

One of the key problems, as in all relationships, is money.

Some of the Thai wives had an exaggerated notion of the wealth of western men.

This can lead to false expectations.

It can also lead to a situation where western men may suspect the motivation of their Thai partner.

In Thailand social welfare as foreigners know it does not exist.

It's a more traditional and patriarchal society.

This has brought Thai women to respect responsible men.

Thai society tolerates more indiscretions from males.

Many Thai women see western partners as potentially more faithful.

Thailand, like other developing countries is in the process of developing a more modern society particularly among the emerging and well educated middle class.

A relationship with a Thai wife has a better chance of success if you take these steps:

Deal with money as a key issue from the outset.

Involve your Thai partner, Thai wife or Thai girlfriend as much as possible.

Appreciate and understand the economic factor that may be involved in your relationship.

Treat your Thai partner with the same respect and consideration as you would any woman.

Move beyond cultural differences, but understand them.

Some Thai women are very good money managers because their is a tradition in Thailand of women being money handlers and small business managers.
