If you are a foreigner who has or wants to have a Thai girlfriend or wife, you may be wondering what kind of gifts you would like to receive from your boyfriend, husband or “kik”. Asian women from different countries like different things. Thai women are not picky, but you can find a special and unique gift that is especially appropriate for Thai women.
If you have put your Thai girlfriend online, there are many online stores that ship to Thailand. Additionally, the United States Postal Service, UPS, and FedEx also offer highly reliable shipping to addresses throughout Thailand. Addresses can be completed in native Thai or using the English translated form of Thai. This second option is probably more preferable for most people who cannot write in Thai.
Another great gift for your Thai girlfriend is a large stuffed animal like a bear, a monkey, or any cute animal you can find. You will find stores completely dedicated to the sale of stuffed animals. The cuter the animal, the better. Thai girls are also crazy about heart-shaped plush pillows. Don’t ask me why, they just are. Go out and spend 200 baht on a big red heart pillow and you will get a big hug and ohms (Thai kiss) from your beautiful Thai lady.
Alternatively, if you live in Thailand or plan to visit your Thai girlfriend in her home country, your options are almost limitless. You can’t walk down the street without bumping into little shops and stores selling all kinds of great gifts for your special girl.
So what exactly do Thai girls like? Honestly, they really aren’t that picky. I would buy them clothes or lingerie as Thai ladies are very picky about what they wear and they will probably choose something that they don’t really care about. But Thai girls are absolutely crazy about accessories. And the cuter the accessory, the better! Find out what is the favorite color of your Thai friends and go shopping for hair clips, hair bands, watches, necklaces or bracelets. Thai women love these things and it doesn’t have to be expensive gold. Most Thai women wear loads of fake jewelry. This is the “norm” of fashion in the Land of Smiles.
For the most part, Thai women will like just about anything you get them, no matter how cheap or expensive it is. They just want to know that you care about them, so a token of appreciation every now and then can go a long way!
