As for me, I didn't get Mon a ring. In Thailand it's not really about diamonds though, but gold. It's not so much about rings either, but sometimes a gold ring is given, and sometimes a necklace or bracelet. I didn't give Mon anything in the end and it wasn't a big issue since the most important thing was that I gave cash and 24k gold necklaces to her parents! They need it way more (Mon got the gift of marriage to me ), and besides, gold is an investment too so it's useful. Gold was $340 per baht (15.2 gms) when I bought the necklaces and now it's about $440 so should they ever need to they can pawn them. At some point Mon and I plan to get simple, matching platinum wedding bands but there's no rush. Bait? It's my opinion and others here are obviously celebrating opinion. Just because people don't like the truth doesn't mean it's baiting 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

I guess this all makes me the biggest sucker then, going along with all the obligations re Mon's parents. I've heard and read online ex-pats saying they're not giving anything... not having the customs... no gold, money or nuffin' and they get all stubborn and uppity about it and I have to laugh. Would Mon love me if I hadn't done it? Of course, but it'd fuck up the day, make the family look bad, and upset my in-laws no end. If you're just cool about everything it's easy to see how it's beautiful and fun to follow those traditions. I'm sure a western wedding is similar and the ring is to many an essential part of it. Skimping on it might not make a difference but why not give a ring and follow tradition? Sometimes that kind of formal gesture is what separates an occasion from other moments in our everyday lives. It's more, and so it stands out. | |

Sounds crazy, I know, but it happens. You make it sound like all straight people are these neurotic, insecurity-ridden scatterbrains constantly completely ill at ease in the dating and relationship world. | |

The justification! Is this encounter with me as bad as the last one? The baby one? Oh, you mean the half Thai pool boy one. I think nothing tops the baby incident for wtf factor. This thread isn't a tip, it's mocking and you know it! Opinions, cool, but there's a difference between offering one up with humility and 'telling' people about themselves and what they should do. It's no biggie if it sits ok with you, but any halfway intelligent person knows the way the responses will be depending on how it's set up and you've a little fiend on your shoulder. | |

Stymie said: evenstar said: i did. imo, it really comes down to what a man can/wants to give a woman. if that's something flashy and she doesn't mind, it's fine. if not, that's cool too. demanding something more is lame, but if a guy can give her something elaborate she shouldn't automatically be written off as gold-digging or whatever. it's all in the circumstance & behavior of individuals. | |
