What's the going monthly rate for a live in "girlfriend"?
As I'm about to be living in PP for four or five months after a few brief previous visits, I've been trying to find out the going rate for a live in girlfriend, assuming I find someone willing to put up with a rather lazy, average looking, fifty-ish barang.
I've quizzed quite a few bar girls and their responses varied from $300 a month (most) to around $500 (a few of the more upmarket ones).
I'm also curious as to whether I can persuade them to include cooking and light housekeeping during their stay.
Looking forward to a variety of replies from the morally outraged to the cynical old hands...

Not sure anyone would be morally outraged. More practically, a lot of girls choose the life of a bargirl because they are averse to doing housework. They have to take care of their delicate nails so they can give punters nightly massages, you know. Good luck on finding one that does everything you want at a price you want!

just hire a maid to clean your hovel of debauchery and despair, and then get some sluts from walkabout or martinis phone numbers and you'll be good to go, you creepy piece of shit.

You actually want a live-in girlfriend? Are you mental? Just get a maid at $5 a time. Or was that for a hooker? Maybe you could find some 2 for 1 deal somewhere, you sad fucker.

Wow, and we're off to a brisk start...
And this from someone whose recents contributions include...just hire a maid to clean your hovel of debauchery and despair, and then get some sluts from walkabout or martinis phone numbers and you'll be good to go, you creepy piece of shit.
just sent my slut of a wife out to get some pha nang curry paste, she better find it or i'll elbow drop her into next year
I don't really see how my question is all that different from the various discussions of grey girls, gold diggers etc. Perhaps I phrased it a bit baldly, but at the end of the day many barangs in PP may kid themselves that they have a genuine relationship with a beautiful and much younger Khmer woman, but quite often there is a basic 'trade' going on under the surface. He gets female company, she gets money, a better lifestyle, and some security...when your occupation is serving drinks and getting your barn doors bashed in and you're rubbish at 1 out of 2 of those simple requests, you should probably reconsider your life.

I imagine renting a woman for long periods is not like renting a car. Sure, if you could find a chick at the price you want, it could work out. Before I would invite a woman to live with me, whether I pay her or she just has bad taste in men, I would want to get to know her. It seems to me that things could quickly go sour, even if she seemed lovely at first. Hard enough to live with a proper girlfriend....

That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart.

This will not end well. You think you are just paying her to keep you warm at night and well fed. She thinks that you are trying her out for the ultimate starring role - WIFEY.
She will get knocked up and that bargain basement price of $300 will be more costly than you ever imagined.
Never start a relationship with someone who needs you more than you need her especially if it is based on her material gain. I am sure you are not naive into thinking she genuinely loves you but what happens when the shit hits the fan and you need to upgrade her. She will lose face and so will you via a bag of acid.
Tread carefully my friend.

I don't get the hostility either. To clarify though, do you envisage her maintaining her "evening work" and coming home to you, doing your housework during the day etc., or do you expect her to quit her job and be your full-time housekeeper-fuckbunny during your stay? It makes a big difference vis-a-vis her financial requirements.
Bear in mind that no matter how you spell it out, she will not accept that this is a temporary arrangement.

True enough! I think it's more to do with how you've gone about it. Where has the old-fashioned wining and dining gone? You could say you are being more honest with how you are going about this, others might say that is not so. For example I never have and never will pay for sex. But if you have a poor girlfriend, wherever they are from, you will likely end up paying in one form or another. I think the approach, and the intent, is key.

PS, my hostility was, as with 90% of my posts, purely tongue in cheek. You asked for it in your OP :p
Actually Bonez' idea is on the spot. Get the phone numbers of rent girls to fuck when you feel like it, get a proper housekeeper to do the housekeeping.
Rentgirls are lousy at housekeeping, housekeepers don't want to fuck.

Apologies for apparent hostility! Just me being an over-sensitive English guy.
Supernova, you make some excellent points - I hadn't fully thought through the issue of loss of face (for her and me). I obviously need to re-think this.
Conneticuter, I totally agree with your comments. In fact I had already met a really nice woman from one of the bars, not a 20 year old girl, but a warm friendly 34 year old. Having known her now for a few months, I was just trying to work through the transition from paying fairly high nightly 'fees' to something more long term that was still fair to her financially.
As regards working, I was assuming she may well want to continue her evening work to get a salary and some tips from drinks, as well as being able to chat to her mates. And hopefully not going out overnight with other guys!
And my remarks about cleaning and cooking were a poor attempt at humour. With proper maids at $30 a month for a few mornings a week, I certainly wasn't expecting 'my girl' to do anything domestic..

Aargh! DANGER!!!!!!
Do NOT go through with this plan. Let me tell you exactly how it will pan out and why.
34 years old Khmer woman - unmarried, tainted. DESPERATE. You're sweet intentions will be interpreted thus: You are the last chance saloon. YOU are the only thing between marriage and security and destitution as an old maid. If you invite her to co-habit with you she will NOT let the relationship end. It makes absolutely no difference what you tell her, being honest, on the level blah blah. And what you pay her weekly or monthly will be of no importance - she'll accept anything gratefully because she will be singularly focussed on long term financial stability. Does she have kids already from a failed Khmer marriage? Bet she does, but if not my points still stand.
Final summary for you to heed or not - if you cohabit with her she will NOT let you go. If you have no intention of marrying her, it will turn very ugly indeed.
