We all know that Pat has always been led by her emotions but those emotions have not always been tied to a man, in the way that she's always thinking, moving and acting because of her connection to a man. From what we know, Pat grew up an intelligent "country" girl who went off to school and got a great job she was proud of. She fell in love and was settling in for her happily ever after, when she got the rude awakening the man she loved had been using her. So yea, that means, she was educated, working and doing well and through trusting a co-worker, who happened to be a man, the man she loved, she was duped. I can't say whether that would have happened if she hadn't been in a relationship with Thanart, but I can say her reason for having her guard down was because she trusted him. That means it could have happened whether this relationship was platonic or romantic, male or female. Also, Pat stood up for herself each time she was accused and only retreated because she had no other choice, something she did because of her pride and determination, not just because she was angry or hurt by Thanart.
She also decides to marry Mor Non, not because she was placing all her eggs in his basket but because she felt backed into a corner, again, something she would have felt and decided without his (male) help. Because again, she's a character that had inner struggles, burdens and insecurities concerning herself and her background long before she met either man. I would only say her heavy sense of guilt surfaced after the embezzling issue. It's true Non propositions her, but she agreed based on her desire to carry her burdens on her own, making a deal to deal with her money problems herself. Which means, if anyone, male or female had proffered a better and quicker (legal, generally uncompromising) solution she would have taken it. Time and time again, we've seen Pat make choices for herself about herself, as an adult woman, willing to take responsibility for her own naïveté. I don't believe she's always made the most rational, reasonable or wise decisions but I certainly don't believe she's some girl that just lets a man or her feelings for and about men, rule her. She is reactionary, that is true, especially concerning Non, but I think drama seeks to make that a separate issue because ultimately Non is the exact same, for very similar reasons. Pat's emotional acts have hurt her and she's called several former stances and statements in to question with her latest responses but we are all contradictory in our own ways, with double standards, and hopefully she and Non can put their misguided actions and motives behind them and move forward.
Edit: @preetam And though I personally can't agree that Pat is the worst character I've seen in 2015, either in Lakorn or other dramas (I watch tons), I do understand your conclusion given what you've expressed as your view of the characters and their actions as a whole.
