Hua Hin friendly for Young Thai woman?

afterdarkimhandsome

First off (Sorry-Im a bloke)
My girlfriend and I are both nervous about moving round to Hua Hin. Both for different reasons. She is nervous because she is shy and wont know anyone. She is also very scared of everything (Ghosts, snakes etc etc)

I am nervous because she is shy and i go away to work for 4 weeks at a time and dont want her stressing or lonely to much. She needs friends and things to do (Except sleep)

Is Hua Hin an easy going kind of place where friends can be made easily. She will not be bothered if her friends are Thai or Farang only that they are jai dee. I would like her to meet another Thai woman in similar circumstances to herself so she can have a buddy to talk things over with.

sorry to go on - but if i didnt care, i wouldnt love her

I'm sure she'll have no problems finding friends here. Most Thais are very easygoing and will make friends quickly, although not many friendships seem to be long lasting. As the Thais say: "Phuen kin haa ngai, phuen taai haa yaak" or it's easy to find a friend to eat with but difficult to find a friend who'll die with you.

Cheers,

she does make friends easy as she is very sweet soft spoken girl (Lady i should say). I just worry you know? I dont care about myself people tell me i could make friends in an empty room, but I have more than myself to worry about.

She has had her fingers burnt in the past by some close friends so she is really sceptical about making friends. Would help me as wel if she met another thai lady who was in a LOVING long term relationship with a Farang guy. She is very sceptical and has bad opinion on farang gentlemen and them being faithful. I have her convinced on me, but as we have been living in Pattaya she isnt to impressed by some of my homeland bretheren.

sorry gone of the point a bit

In would not worry as while you are away half the extended family will be moving in.

Can't help you with the Thai lady with (genuinely nice) farang gentleman scenario, but I know there are many Thai ladies in HH in that situation. If , however, you come up short on that & she'd like to meet up with a farang woman who had (he died, not a break-up) a Thai gentleman & has a Thai son, get her to pm me.
Whatever, she'll love it here. It's a good place. Smile

She'll be just fine. My girlfriend was in HH with me and got on like a house on fire with the locals when we came over. Thais are a friendly bunch all in all Smile
