Sompong Chomphuprapet has reportedly married twice and both marriages ended up in divorce. She now wants an honest man to spend the rest of her life with.

A 65-year-old Thai woman has taken the search for a soulmate to a far different level as she placed a banner on the gate of her home with the inscription, “A woman aged 65,

According odditycentral.com, Sompong Chomphuprapet claims that, so far, she has been unlucky in love, with both her previous marriages ending in divorce.

She reportedly got married to a Thai man, who turned out to be a drunk. Sompong then left for Germany to work, where she found another husband, but that also ended up in divorce after 13 years. She is back to Thailand now and has decided to find someone “honest” to spend the rest of her life with.

The woman said “I want a nice man. Living alone is sad and lonely. I want a retired bureaucrat on a pension. I want true love. I want to truly love and live with someone until death do us apart. If someone contacts me, I will see if they’re my type.”

Though Sompong is dying to have a boyfriend, she is not ready to take just any man, irrespective of how “honest” he might be.

“He said he’s a teacher and told me to take the sign down!

“His pension will be THB20,000 [once he’s retired]. But deducting the money that will pay his debts, he will only have THB8,000 a month. I told him that if I found a boyfriend, my children would cut me off. So THB8,000 is not enough for two people,” Sompong said about a teacher who approached her upon seeing the advertisement.

She has already turned down some suitors who have not met her specifications, just about a week after placing the banner on her fence.
