For what it’s worth, I’m sitting here at a playground in Korea watching my son who I have with someone from a different continent. So you never know.

First thought, be careful. Curious where you’re traveling to?
That said, in 2016 my niece meet a man online, they talked for at least 6 months. He flew out to meet her and our family for a few weeks around Christmas. By summer she flew out to move in with him, a month later they were married. They have 2 kids now and are as happy as 2 people can be juggling raising small kids, work, and a family business lol.

If that’s serious (and I’m hoping it’s not), do not go unless you’ve been talking to her for a long time now, or at least bring friends for backup on your first trip. Thailand’s got a bit of a reputation and I’m not talking about the ladyboys (hey - if you’re into it, they’ve got some of the most beautiful trans women around, I’m not gonna judge).
I know of two Estonian celebrities who have had some weird-ass experiences there. There was a comedic actor who went and… he’s not really talked about it much, but he was much more serious when he came back. Like something proper dark must’ve happened because the man seemed to have PTSD coming back. Would’ve been about a decade ago. Then there are two stand-up comedians whose podcast I used to listen to until one accidentally got semi-famous in the US so they stopped making it. One of them and I forgot which one, but I’m suspecting Ari, talked about how he literally got drugged by some women in a club and his friends barely saved his ass from being dragged away. This is something that women unfortunately have to fear worldwide, but it being Thailand, he suspected they were either going to rob his ass or remove some organs, it’s not like he was going to say no to sex anyway so it wouldn’t have been for rape purposes likely. Dude’s tall and well built, used to do MMA. Not the kind of person you’d expect to get kidnapped and murdered, but hey, it was pretty likely gonna happen, even strong people are very easy to incapacitate when their guard’s down.

Good luck OP. I did this and now I’ve been married for 3 years and life is awesome. High risk, high reward.

I met my soul mate that lives a few states away about two weeks ago on a trip with mutual friends. Known each other online for over three years
Be safe. Have fun

Also she’s down on her luck, and needs $10k to pay some debts. But no worries she’ll pay it back soon, she promised.
