I don’t know what the legislation is in Thailand, but this always bugs me. There are places where you can put both your names on a bank account even if you aren’t married, either as private people (me and my partner in France did that for the household expenses), or as business partners by both owning part of the business.

No but I genuinely can't stop thinking about all the ways Beam betrayed Jim. I can't stop thinking about how everything was in Beam's name probably because Jim's finances were such that Beam looked better to the banks, and how much it must have taken as a person who grew up in poverty like Jim to trust Beam with his money like that, how much in love he must have been. I can't stop thinking about how Beam didn't do anything to protect Jim's hard-earned financial stability. Sure he probably didn't expect to die tragically in a ferry accident, and nobody in love wants to think about the love possibly ending someday, but NOTHING? Jim didn't keep money under the mattress? He trusted Beam that much? I think about my aunties and great aunties who from even before I was old enough to understand what they were saying and why were telling me 'you must always have your own' and always had cash squirreled away in their house somewhere. Like, Jim not really having queer community then meant that he never learned that lesson until he learned it the hard way. Because I'm sure that as a man it never occurred to him that he could be in that situation until Beam's parents were taking everything from him.

Jim might forgive Beam, but I sure as shit never will.
