they change this law a couple of years ago to get rid of long-stay tourists. if i remember all the details -- you can only get one 3-month tourist visa per year and you have to show good reason - like visiting family or work. tourist visas are now stamped for 15 days, not 30 days, and you can only get 3 per 6-month period. border runs are a thing of the past. Thailand doesn't like foreigners, and they've made it harder to stay without legitimate reason.

nearly everything said by this guy is true. Thailand is not dirt cheap, although it is much cheaper than living in the US or EU. we pay more for cars, but we have 4 of them because we pay less for everything else. like our 3300 sq/foot house that was $70k. our $200 a month electric bill even tho we A/C the whole house 24/7/365. our 2 live-in nannies that cost $100 a month each. our housekeeper that costs less than $50 a month for 7 days of cleaning and cooking a week. and the list goes on.
the 'hooking up with low class women' is pretty much wrong. true, if you are a dirty, fat, old fucker that just comes to Thailand to fuck girls you couldn't get back home, then yea, you have to fuck bar girls. likewise if you are on holiday, you will be limited on the number of girls interested in you.
however if you are long-stay, or even meet/talk to a girl online and get to know her, nearly any available girl will talk to you. they all want to hit the lottery, and in Thailand, there's only one way to do that. you just have to make sure you know what you are doing and what you commit to. dont think with your dick or your heart, because most likely they are only thinking with their greed. one in a thousand has legitimate, honest intentions of finding love. you may just have to work a little harder to find her.
dont expect to fuck them on your first date and you wont be disappointed. Thai girls respect themselves more than the bitchy whores in the west. except the bar girls and lady boys of course. but that isn't real Thailand.
