She was from province, but working in an MNC in BKK. The only difficulty I had is the distance, had to keep traveling to meet, went over multiple times a month. If you find language barrier to be a problem, then the problem is likely to be you for not putting a simple effort. We broke up because of the indecisive conclusion for our future. And it wasn't my fault, I was fine to either live in SG or move to TH.

I've never dated with SG ladies. In fact, I don't really like our society and culture. I wanted a partner with low education level and able to accept a simple life. Unfortunately I see these kind of partners don't seem to be welcomed by our society. I find too much education ruins the minds of people. It makes people want more and more.

Our SG society simply looks down on people with simple expectations. Combined with the tertiary education and women's charter. Even Malays and Indians women now are 99.9999% same across the board. Nothing wrong with women wanting a better life. But explicitly demanding like a child will turn any rational man off. This is the million dollar problem. Caveat Emptor!

Sorry yr RS didn't work out with that thai woman. I would moved to thailand if I were you. Spare her the toxic culture here. Why don't you consider moving to Thailand permanently for better marriage prospects?

Right now, I have a problem to move to Thailand permanently. At that time, she discouraged me to move there because of the country's instability, yet couldn't have a conclusion on where to settle down. This is a problem that will end a LDR in marriage or breakup. I had 2 relationships, and both were LDR. I accept the reason for the first breakup (Malaysian lady) was my fault.

That Women's Charter and MOM regulations reduced a lot of choices for us who want really simple women.

Not sure how MOM regulations restrict a foreign wife. Since I am ignorant ab this. If you're under 40. Moving to a specific province of Thailand. Perhaps, you can set the rules where and when you could find a nice thai lady. If this is yr end goal.

All RS (including marriage. Not my cup of tea) take consideration amt of work. Learning thai is consider a reasonable req too. Gd luck!

You're one of the sanest and rational samster I ever met on this forum. The rest and me included are probably suffered from personality or mood (cluster B , NPD, BPD) disorders.

All the best for your marriage prospects. Have a gd one and take care.

No, I don't mean about the restrictions for foreign wife, but the restrictions you will face if you want to date and marry a FW (foreigner worker) who is already working in SG. It is not that difficult if you marry a normal Thai girl and bring her back eventually.

I been thru 2x LDR but never dated a SG girl before. Not learning the language is not an excuse. I could speak Thai even when I haven't met my ex simply because I simply like going to BKK for regular breaks. In fact, I learnt Thai and Japanese, but neglected Japanese because lack of usage. You can get can better treatment and experience when you do things like chionging there.
