<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nA Thai woman who moved to the United States after marrying an American man has gone viral after sharing her experience of living in the country. After three years in the US, she says she wants to return to Thailand, claiming that the reality of American life was very different from what she had expected.A video shared on Reddit has sparked a discussion about the realities of living in the United States and the expectations surrounding the American Dream. The clip, posted by user u\/search_google_com in the r\/whoathatsinteresting community, features the woman explaining why she wants to return to her home country.<\/p>\n At the beginning of the video, her American husband introduces her experience, saying, “My Thai wife moved here three years ago, and now she wants to move back to Thailand.”The woman explains that she came to the US hoping to experience what she understood as the American Dream, but her experience has not matched those expectations.“It’s not like what I thought at all. I feel like the American Dream is dead,” she said. “It’s not like [it was from] 20 or 30 years ago anymore.”According to her, the rising cost of living has made everyday life increasingly difficult, with expenses becoming harder to manage.<\/p>\n The woman also described the pressure of working and repeating the same routine every day.“Every day feels like a rat race,” she said, explaining that her typical day involves going to work, finishing work and returning home, only to repeat the same routine the following day.She also pointed to transportation as another drawback, claiming that having a car is essential in many parts of the US.“In order to go somewhere, you need to drive there. You need to have a car; there’s no public transportation,” she said.<\/p>\n Comparing her life in the US with her experience in Thailand, the woman said she finds her home country more relaxing and enjoyable.“In Thailand, the lifestyle is more relaxing. It’s more enjoyable to live there,” she said, adding that people are friendly and there are plenty of food options.She also claimed that healthcare is considerably more affordable in Thailand than in the US, another factor influencing her decision to return.“Overall, I feel happier in Thailand. So that’s the reason why I wanna move back to Thailand,” she concluded.<\/p>\n The woman’s comments prompted mixed reactions from Reddit users. While some related to her observations about the cost and pressures of living in the US, others pointed out that every country comes with its own challenges.One Reddit user shared a similar conversation with their spouse and said they concluded that there is no perfect place to live.“We came to the conclusion that while we like Thailand, there are a lot of stressors you get in Thailand [that] you don’t get in the US. A lot of stressors you get in the US that you don’t get in Thailand,” the user wrote.Another Reddit user questioned her comparison with America from decades ago, asking how she would know what life was like in the country 20 or 30 years ago.<\/div>\n Thai woman married to American man says ‘American Dream is dead’ after 3 years in US, wants to return to Thailand: ‘Every day feels like a rat race’ A Thai woman who moved to the United States after marrying an American man has gone viral after sharing her experience of living in the country.
