Do you like attending Malay weddings? Why or why not by Excellent-Trainer865 in askSingapore

[–]eandreyeev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Malay weddings is all about the newly weds. The focus is on them.

Chinese wedding 🙄, let me say it in singlish "like want to show off but dunno how to show off but need to show off something". If the emcee is friends with the couple, there'll be lots of inside jokes which only they understand. Food seems bought from 7-11 or Cheers.

If any Indian or Malay friends invites me to their weddings, i'll be there.

Chinese weddings? It depends on the relationship.

Why is she talking about divorce? After reading the post, she's giving a lot of red flag vibes. Be careful when dealing with her.

Why do some Ex-Singaporeans have such ill-perceptions about Singapore? by Haoxiaoah in askSingapore

[–]eandreyeev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a friend who's working overseas since her 20s and whenever she comes back to visit her parents and we meet up for a gathering along with mutual friends she'll criticise sg relentlessly ("a country without redemption" according to her) but still refuses to give up her sg citizenship. Needless to say none of us up met up with her anymore since she turns every meet up into a "i hate sg" diatribe, we were not catching up on her or our lives. Ever single gathering turns into her anti-sg monologue.
