For here I thought it might be:

You big and handsome. Jep! 

Give me money. I love you long time. 

But thank you does work ok too!

This is wrong! The number 1 phrase for a successful relationship is:

Yes dear, you are right

[Soidog]

Number 2 by the way is:

Would you like some money dear to go shopping?

I would have thought, being constantly reminded of your love for each other, was No 1.

'Love you, Darling' is our No 1 phrase.

That will come in Valentine’s Day with annual flowers and then her birthday.

You’re a good man Faz. If I was female I certainly would be envious.

I actually think the article has it right

 

I think a casual "Love You" or "Thank You" is thrown around

 

But I think couples forget or don't give genuine "Thank You's" all that often 

 

I just did yesterday and could tell Kyle wife appreciated 

Although that wasn't my goal 

I was really appreciative 

 

I came home from work sick and wen to bed

And when I wake up she did all the dishes (which I told her I would do) and folded my laundry

All an hour before she went to work herself

 

So I sent her a text genuinely Thanking her

I realized that when I typed that 

How genuine could that be 5555

 

But she was working......

Welll....it can be "Thank you"..."I love you"....however the killer word is "I Miss you Soo Much Darling".......just go out of your house or when you are out there for some business, even if it is few hours. Just text her and see the reception when you reach home. That is the magical word where most Thai girls will fall to you if you are genuinely meaning it

text back "Yai sick, can you help with 5000 baht for Paracetamol."

Seriously just try to keep an honest and open relationship, no secrets, no lies and do say thank you and show you care for her, particularly on her birthday. (She'll forget yours but .....)

A simple heart felt thank you goes a long way in any culture if you say it their language. I have been saying "yin dee poop"  lately...maybe not too heart felt.
