Paul Spurrier's Advice on Dating Thai Bar Girls

Don't risk any more than you are prepared to lose - not only financially, but emotionally.

If you have expectations, she will disappoint you.
If you have none, she will constantly surprise you.

Accept that you probably have never been as poor as she has, and that you can never really understand how that affects someone.

Understand that due to everything she has been through, in the West she would almost certainly qualify for free psychotherapy - and she may need it.

Understand that she probably will never love you as much as her parents, and that she will always choose them over you, if made to decide.

If you dump her, your life won't change that much. Hers will change utterly..

Her jealousy may be a nuisance to you, but it is a greater burden to her..

If you want her to love you for more than just your money, you have to be able to offer more than just money.

If it doesn't work and you split up, it doesn't mean the relationship was a failure - it was just a temporary success..

Ignore all advice about dating bargirls.
