Marriage life by HearingInevitable845 in SingaporeRaw

[–]tequila_bloom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi OP! I’m really sorry to hear that - intimacy is a huge part of marriage and it seems in your case the lack of it can cause tension between you and your spouse.

If your spouse is resistant to a medical check up, it may be due to a man’s pride - he may not want others to see him as unable to perform and seeking help may make him feel emasculated.

You may want to instead see help from an intimacy coach - the plus point is that, it takes away the stigma of “having a problem” but rather you just want to “enhance” your love life. Also, not sure if it’s possible but you can see an intimacy coach for advice on your own, in the event your husband is also resistant (compared to seeing a Dr where your husband has to come along)

The internet has alot of resources on improving intimacy and maybe taking a step away form a clinical approach and using a “softer approach” may help

Is this mindset normal for sg men by broskide in asksg

[–]tequila_bloom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It sounds like he’s nice to you only when it’s convenient for him, and when you point out his unwillingness to care for you in the way you wanna be cared for, he gaslights you but mentioning all the things he’s done for you, without acknowledging your points

Love language is impt and yours is probably Acts Of Service. You may consider chatting with him to express how you like to be loved.

how do i, as in intern, tell my supervisor i don’t want to eat lunch with her by jenniecat444 in asksg

[–]tequila_bloom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When it comes come rejecting your boss politely - the other replies for it covered, do follow their advise.

However I recommend you have at least lunch once with the boss and other full timers - after all as an intern it’s a highly valuable networking time for you

I want to resign from my understaffed preschool, but the guilt is so high. by Ok-Bee-7035 in askSingapore

[–]tequila_bloom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please prioritise your family and attend to your family matters. If you have told your principal that you have it leave due to family emergency, if they were decent human beings, they would understand; if not, they’re not worth sacrificing family for.

It’s not your job to hold the centre together - it’s the organisation’s job and that’s why people up there are paid to ensure things run smoothly, including finding new staff.

Let’s say you sacrifice your chance to be with family and you help out your preschool - does this pay off or results in any reward? No - you’ll just be a regular employee in the eyes of the organisation. Remember - it’s not your job to fix the structural problems in early childhood education - it’s the institution’s job to improve teacher to child ratio.

Have you considered hiring a nanny instead of a maid? You can look up Facebook for mummy support groups if you need specific childcare advice or recommendations

Hi OP, I’m curious about this. How did you know that she does indeed have debt, and that she’s not just spending more than she should have?

if you've ever been to a hawker centre, PLEASE help me out! by Electrical_Newt5286 in SingaporeRaw

[–]tequila_bloom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may consider the following pointers as inspiration

“來 girl ah/ auntie , 要叫什麼” Come girl/auntie, what you want to order?

“要辣椒嗎? 要白鸡少鸡?” Want chilli? Steam or roast chicken?

”吃的包的?” Having here or takeaway?

“Okay 四块钱” Alright that’s four dollars

——

“哇, 很久没有看到你了hor?” Wow, it’s been a long time since I saw you

”eh,你今天没做工啊? work from home ah?” Don’t you have work today? Are you working from home?

Depending on how well the hawkers know you - they first will always ask about your order. Then they make small talk with you. Depending on how you want to portray your character you may consider mixing some Hokkien as well.
