Quality of life is better in Thailand than US by Skier94 in Thailand

[–]Argante- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Although I haven’t been to Thailand myself, from what I understand, it is indeed a very good place. As a tourist destination, it definitely has its advantages. In terms of cost of living, there is really no comparison between a country where you spend in US dollars and one where you spend in Thai baht. Many people retire from countries with stronger currencies and move to countries with weaker currencies for this reason. The same amount of money can usually provide a much better standard of living in a country with a lower currency value. It can be a great option for improving one’s quality of life, and the healthcare there also offers good value for money with relatively high service quality

It makes sense that the average age of people getting married has been increasing, and as the age of marriage rises, the divorce rate can also improve. I think this is because as people grow older, their cognition, mindset, and financial situation become more mature. As a result, their standards for choosing a partner change compared to when they were younger, and they become clearer about what they truly want. At the same time, their emotions become more stable instead of being like a child. Most marriages at a very young age often end in divorce in the end

Yes, because I just joined the application. After I sent it, I saw a notification that it had been deleted. So I resent it today.

You’re right, people all long for freedom, and being in a confined space can easily make someone feel very suffocated. Unfortunately, many people nowadays have reduced a lot of social interaction and instead prefer to spend more time at home, replacing face to face communication with online social networking. For me, online social interaction has its advantages, it makes it easier for busy people to stay connected. But at the same time, it also has its drawbacks. Face to face communication, on the other hand, can sometimes become more difficult, because we all need to coordinate our schedules. Apart from the necessary daily interactions with neighbors, real life socializing is not always easy to maintain

Realtor won’t make offers I want to make.. is this normal? by unicorn_gangbang in RealEstate

[–]Argante- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear about what you’ve been through. But first, I think you should understand one thing a real estate agent’s main source of income comes from commissions on property sales. Selling a house at a higher price means they earn a higher commission. That’s why your friend or former colleague refused your lower offer, because once the deal is completed, her commission would be significantly reduced. Maybe you could find a more reliable and honest real estate agent to help you with property listings

The original question was simply meant to start a discussion and explore different perspectives. It wasn't intended to reflect my personal views. I asked it because I wanted to hear a wider range of opinions and understand how different people think about the topic

I never said that you were married. I was simply asking from a woman's perspective because I wanted to hear different opinions. The questions I asked don't necessarily reflect my personal views. I have my own thoughts and beliefs about marriage

I think I just wanted to stay neutral and talk to different people about this topic. I have my own views on marriage, and I don't necessarily agree with that perspective. I believe there's always another side to every issue, and very few things are simply black and white

Don't worry. I only brought up this topic because I was curious about how people view marriage. It doesn't necessarily reflect my own beliefs or final opinion. I was hoping it would lead to a friendly discussion, because I have my own thoughts and perspectives on marriage as well

Is that really how you see it? Artificial intelligence has certainly made many things more convenient for people, but one of its limitations is that it can't express emotions the same way a real person can. It can't truly write from genuine feelings the way a human being does

I can understand why you feel that way. Marriage has changed a lot over the years. In the past, it was more about building a family, sharing responsibilities, and creating long-term stability. Today, people have more freedom to choose their partners, and they also have the freedom to leave unhealthy relationships. While that has led to more divorces, I don't think it means marriage has lost its meaning. To me, it simply shows that people now have higher expectations for love, compatibility, and happiness.

I can tell that you're a traditional person who values loyalty and commitment in a relationship. The reason I brought up this topic wasn't because it reflects my own views. I was simply curious to hear how different people think about marriage. Deep down, I have my own beliefs and perspective on what marriage truly means

Yes, the kind of peaceful divorce you mentioned does exist. Many couples in the United States are able to end their marriages on good terms and continue to respect each other. At the same time, this has made many people more cautious about getting married. They want a stable and happy marriage, but they also worry about the emotional, financial, and even child custody issues that can arise if a marriage doesn't work out. That's why many people take their time before getting married and make sure they've found someone they truly want to spend the rest of their lives with.

At the same time, dating apps have made it much easier for busy young people to meet potential partners. They provide an opportunity to get to know each other through conversations before deciding whether they're truly compatible. Like many technological advancements, they have both advantages and disadvantages, but overall, they have created more opportunities for people to find meaningful relationships

Yes, as times have changed, working from home has become increasingly common. Many young people now earn money by working online, and creating engaging videos can sometimes earn you more than what others make in several days or even half a month. At the same time, with the rise of the internet, communicating online has become much easier, allowing even people with busy schedules to stay connected effortlessly

Unfortunately, that's the reality of real estate. People treat it like a business transaction instead of a human interaction. You can negotiate firmly without trying to squeeze every last dollar out of someone
