What Do Thai Girls Want

Thai Girlfriend Present

So, I was chatting with one of my readers the other day. He is going to Thailand next week to visit his girlfriend and was wondering if I had any suggestions for what a Thai girl might like as a gift. He really likes this girl and obviously wants to make a great impression.

I thought about all the gifts that I’ve given Golf in the past and concluded that Thai girls like the same things as western girls generally. You definitely won’t go wrong with the obvious gifts like flowers, chocolates, jewelry and perfume. I know I’ve given each of these in the past and they’ve all been very appreciated.

If you know the girl quite well then the same thing applies, but you can make it more personalized. Thai girls are no different than western girls in that they want to know that you’ve been thinking about them and that you care enough to put some time and effort into the gift. One of the best gift responses I got from Golf was over a bag of Skittles.

If you’re not American you may not know what Skittles are, but they are basically a small fruit flavored candy. Kind of like a fruit flavored M&M. Well I told Golf about them once and she really wanted to taste them (you can’t get them in Thailand as far as I know). She thought I would bring some with me on my next trip which was about 2 months away.

The next day I went out and picked up a couple packs of Skittles and a card. Hand wrote a nice little note and stopped at the local FedEx place to post them out to her. Three days later I got a phone call with the most excited and breathless girl on the other end. She was ecstatic that I had sent the Skittles and the note like that.

It’s really quite easy and even the simplest gifts can be made special by making them personal to the girl and your relationship with her. There’s no need to stress that a gift won’t be appreciated if the girl knows you were thinking of her when you bought it. And if you can make it a surprise so much the better.

In my opinion Thai girls like pretty much the same thing as every other girl on the planet, especially when it comes to gifts. Do you think Thai girls like different gifts from western girls?

    Thai females are like females everywhere else. What they want is $$$; THAT is ALL. Thai girls are very skilled manipulators who capitalize on western men; the respect for women has been driven into us since childhood. Always remember that these built-in vulnerabilities make Farangs highly vulnerable to the superlative acting/role playing and psychological gamesmanship practiced by Thai females. We go to the LOS to use the women but they do a much better job at using the men.

    Actually I find that Western girls are much harder to please in the gift giving department. I’ve been married 3 times ! Ugh ! This last marriage is to a Thai woman for over 5 years now. Any present I give her she loves…It’s more just the fact that you are showing that you are thinking of them than the actual gift itself.
    However, the one gift to a Thai woman that you can NEVER go wrong with is GOLD ! In Jewelry form or Bhat form :)

    I have a friend who came 2nd in Jumbo Queen a few years back. She has very large feet (9 EEE) (dont worry – she is definitely NOT a ladyboy), which makes it very hard to find shoes in thailand, so I bought her a pair of boots. Sadly the foot size was right, but her legs r too big, so she is going to try to lose weight. I think if u give your girl something that cannot be bought in thailand she will be really happy. I bought another friend size 24 tops which r very hard to find in thailand. She was very happy too.

    Although I haven’t any experience with Thai Girls but have some relations with Philippines. Those girls are amazing and it is not difficult to make them happy. I think it is the same with Thai Girls or may be all girls on this planet. She needed a phone(cellular) and I have sent that. I received the call from the same phone with a lots of love and weeps.

    Hi, Yah I’ve seen their eyes light up with the stuffed animals and flowers, but another one to think of is…. shoes
    Give your girl a set of sexy shoes, and she will always love U.
    Is one of life’s universal truths

    How can they be so cold and unfeeling? I have the same problem with my company here too :)

    Only been here a week, but New York is going great so far. The people at work are being very unreasonable and expecting me to go to the office every day!

    The framed photo is a great idea, especially if it’s of the both of you. We’ve actually given that to her parents and they loved it. And teddy bears (or other stuffed animals – I gave Golf a stuffed dog once) are also A+ gifts.

    Are you enjoying NYC?

    I’d agree that personal gifts are always best. Once you have got past the fact that there is no miracle skin whitening cream and us farangs are just pale and pasty naturally. A teddy bear and framed photo are the gifts that have gone down best for me.
