Honestly as more of a Monogam-ish vs Monogamous person, I actually like the way the Thais do it. I think it's a lot more aligned with our true nature as romantic creatures. As I see it, it's asking a lot for one person to be another person's be all and end all until the end of time. Polyamorous folks call this compersion, that you can feel good about the other person's romantic interests. My wife has a gik, I have a gik, No harm, no foul. Keeps everyone from feeling trapped, caged or bored and allows you to more fully enjoy the time you have because you know the grass isn't actually greener when you can visit someone else's lawn.

Thank you so much! Your cultural insights have been very useful. Loved the video about 19 speaking Thai. I'm coming your way on Tuesday.

A Mia Noi is still quite common in Bangkok circles. I remember when my ex-wife found out one of her best friends from school had become a Mia Noi, she was quite disappointed in her.

OMG Robb as a subsciber for just a year or so I highly recommend redoing this topic. IT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING and would be invaluable knowledge for a rookie. I am just learning it today and have 2 trips and 4 months of random Thai knowledge under my belt. THIS IS THE TOPIC that underlies everything!! lol.

Thank you for making this video. I’m in a newly relationship with my Thai boyfriend, and we have now been apart for 2 months. I am certain that he is cheating, but come to find out about gik culture, I have no doubts. Too many lies... my heart is shattered, and I am not too sure what to make of it. He is of course denying it.. but could there be a way to have it as a honest thing in the relationship? How much are they typically using their giks???
