OK,,,,,, given the sensitivity lately about "newbies" and how they're treated,,,,, I'm going to take this seriously and take a bite of the apple.
Maikauzai,,, you really didn't give us enough info. Just as in the west,,,, there are too many variables,,,,,, such as:
1. What's her social status?
2. What's your social status?
3. What's her age?
4. What's your age?
5. What's her ethnic background,,, Lao, Thai, Issan, Muslam, Chinese, Meo, etc,etc?
6. What's your ethnic background?
7. Are you in a work environment or purely social?
Yes, the above could have an impact on how you would "approach" her. I'm going to assume she is a woman of character and class, someone you would be proud to be seen with anywhere.
In many situations you could probably use an intermediary to meet but the language problem is just that,, one of you will have to learn enough of the other's language to make it worthwhile/viable.
Now, I'm going to throw a wrench (I think the Brits call it a spanner) into the equation above,,,,,,,,aside from all the above,,,,, and given the above are all positive,,,, IMHO,,one of the most significant things in an approach to a Thai woman is your facial expression and eye contact. That first impression is very important and will set the tone for what follows. Do not expect to succeed if you have appeared loud, boisterous, drunk, smelly, uneducated, or a womanizer. Are you successful or do you have a chance at a successful future because of education, wealth etc.?
OK,, that's my opinion,,,,,,,,, so fire away gents....... LL
