That is exactly what I want to do from August, and hopefully in my house.

Don't let the illusion become a delusion, it'll only lead to confusion and you'll feel like a used yin'.

well i hope it all works out for you which ever path you choose to go down, theres no shame or losing face when things don't work out as you hoped or dreamed, but there is always that chance to rebuild your life no matter what happens & there are not many better places to do it than the los.
good luck Cheers

Live in the house its 50% yours unless you waved that right at the land office. Piss her off she will sell out cheap after six months.Dont give her any money during that six months.

I also applaud your honesty it takes a real man to admitt that hes made a mistake.

It is my understanding that the house is 50% to each of the married couple, but the land underneath it is what you have signed away if you were the (farang) one who paid for it. In the event of a divorce each side is entitled to 50% of the shared possessions, which would include the house and it's contents (if purchased after the marriage), but the land belongs to the Thai.

Yes, Mia farrang purchases the land in her maiden name.

My wife is on the chanote. Her name on the ID card is the same name as me.(farang)
That didnt seem to pose any problem although her daughter is on the chanote (jointly) using her Thai name.

I'm just getting in on this at the tail end but have one comment. Many times there is no need to be combatitive or suffer many sleepless nights trying to devise methods to counter a preceived coming attack, which may never come.

The OP's post "when return from Paris..." shows that perhaps a calm, in depth discussion could resolve the problems in an amicable way. If you're fair with her A. Mug, you may find that you both can get through this without a big fight. Offer her something reasonable. Good luck. Pete Cheers
