T.B.G.I. (Thailand Bar Girl Investigations)

You may be thinking it’s a good idea to do some checking up on your girl by yourself. Good luck to you, but it probably will not work.

Thai Bar Girl Investigations aren’t just about being smart, they’re about experience and knowing what can and can’t be relied on to get the truth.

First there is the simplest reason of all: You can’t go to the place she works and get the truth just by asking.

Thais will always lie to the outsider to protect one of their own! Especially when it involves money. There’s a local saying that “you don’t f*** with someone else’s rice bowl” and it’s true.

For them to tell you the truth, that she’s working in the bar when she says she’s not, would risk cutting your girl off from your money. It just isn’t done in Thai society of any sort. They are thick as thieves, and for the most part that’s what Thai bar girls are — thieves!

This is just how Thai culture works, and what’s more they actually think they are doing you a favor by telling you what you want to hear.

It obviously would please you to know your girlfriend is faithful to you. So they’ll tell you that and everyone gets “face”. They don’t even see it as a lie, they see it as basic courtesy!

Well, bad news for them. The men of T.B.G.I. (Thailand Bar Girl Investigations) aren’t Thai. Our only loyalties are to each other, to the truth and to our customers.

Send in Your Mates?

Another idea that seems good at first but is almost always doomed to failure.

If you and your friend have ever been to the bar together, he’s going to be recognized as your friend within 5 minutes. This is guaranteed.

Your friend doesn’t know the right questions to ask, and he’s probably not got the skills in the Thai language and the Thai-Lao-Isaan dialect to make sense of the chatter going on around him.

And does he really have the patience to sit in one place for many hours or days? Are you going to ask him to spend he free time like that? (And are you sure he doesn’t have his own designs on your girl?)

Last, what if he’s wrong? If because of inexperience or incompetence, mistaken identity, etc. he reports falsely…? You could be stuck with a bad girl or lose a good girl, and maybe lose a friend, too!

The Right Answer!

The surest path to the truth is an impartial, experienced professional like T.B.G.I. (Thailand Bar Girl Investigations). A quality investigation almost always costs less than you send your Thai girl in one month.

You get the benefit of knowing the job was done right the first time.
