kentguy2025 Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago I met this Thai guy back in November, and we’re due to go travelling together in a couple of weeks. The plan is that I apply for a DTV by September, and he’s also talking about eventually moving in with me. The long-distance relationship since November has been quite difficult. I sometimes feel like he isn’t fully honest, even about small things. I also don’t really feel very loved by him—for example, I often send him what I think are affectionate or sweet messages, but he rarely responds in the same way. I realise this could potentially be a cultural difference, as this is my first time dating a Thai man, but I’m not sure. He also goes out at night quite often with friends and is usually unreachable when he’s out. Given perceptions about nightlife in Thailand, I sometimes worry in the back of my mind whether he might be cheating. I feel confused and unsure about the situation, and I’m trying to understand whether my concerns are valid or if I’m overthinking things. Quote

Those are typical pitfalls of long distance relationships and there s no way of escaping those thoughts other than trusting him or cutting relationship off , sooner the better . As for messages, don't worry too much about him not sounding sweet enough. It could be more reserved personality or linguistic and cultural difference. Quote

I know, I am probably overthinking it, basically I don't want to be wasting either of our time I suppose. This maybe a really insensitive thing to ask but do they get into relationships with men just for a better life ?? mauRICE 1 Quote
Travelingguy Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Is the question about whether Thai men are faithful or whether men are faithful? Perhaps @floridarob should chime in. I think he has opinions on this subject. Quote
