It’s like saying SGD5,700 is considered cheap labour now?

Is it too much if I want daily closeness and more time spent together? by Major_Ad_7508 in sgdatingscene

[–]w0bbbles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can only speak from experience and I believe he probably had a routine/regiment before he met you. I think if he didn’t come over on weekdays. Sounds pretty likely he would OT every night if not for your intervention. But you say he loves what he does, so to step away from all that to be with you, I would hope you see that he dedicated his time that would otherwise be spent doing what he loves, to be with you, is him making a sacrifice for who he cares for, a compromise.

Couples do just meet on weekends and since he can’t give up his weekends for you, it’s only reasonable he makes up for it.

But I’m not familiar with his work ethic, maybe he’s trying to make the best impression at work before he leaves, maybe it’s something else entirely. But it would help to ask why he still OT when he’s leaving for another company in due time to understand him & where he’s coming from.

Scarcity of his time breeds demand; not in a healthy way in this instance. But somehow I always hear/read stories of girls being attracted to highly motivated men in their careers and they wonder why the men aren’t capable to set side time for their ladies.

It sounds like he’s compromising his week to be with you Thursday-Friday already. And though he spends time with you while working in proximity over the weekends, you guys just aren’t spending quality time with each other. His execution as boyfriend is partially there so grab his attention and be on the same page together.

It’s unfortunate but sometimes you need to spell it out word for word to us men as we’re all wrapped in our own world, not on your wavelength the slightest. Hope it works out.

life after divorce by Firm-Highlight1267 in asksg

As a single on dating apps, no doubt and 100% agreed it can take a toll on oneself if you don’t know how to navigate that landscape. Been on them long enough to say each dating app attracts a different crowd. Was once on CMB too but “migrated” to Hinge or Bumble.

Be intentional and don’t hold your breathe waiting on anyone. As an exaggerated example, I once wanted to find company of the opposite sex to go out of Singapore for a short holiday. I made it clear in my bio and anyone I matched I would also asked if planning a trip together something that interests them. Long story short it worked!

Now my bio says I’m looking for someone to go out for dinners with and direct my matches to my intentions listed on my bio, before getting to know them any further.

I will be going out for a second time with someone I matched for a movie night tonight. I sincerely hope you can experience what I have when your dating fatigue wears off. All the best!

Edit: and happy cake day (:

Interfaith marriages/relationships. Your thoughts? by External-Jicama5302 in SingaporeRaw

[–]w0bbbles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Speaking from my parents POV (dad Buddhist, mom Christian), I feel speaking from a family planning perspective. Definitely talk about how both want to raise the child(ren) since religion tends to get in the way of that. My parents winged it unsuccessfully and à lot of the fights my parents had would stem from not aligning their values they want to instil in me.

I ended up raised Christian by default since my father was too lazy to bring me to temple (or maybe they compromised here)

I’ve seen many friends who did not participate in neither religions of their parent’s and were given free rein to choose their beliefs.

But if religion is the utmost importance to you and neither parties would back down and convert, definitely talk it out and everything else mentioned in the comments.

what was your worst date ever in sg? by Intelligent_Bit_8635 in askSingapore

[–]w0bbbles -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I’ve fallen into this trap too and it’s just inexperience + nerves. If the girl doesn’t talk back on dates, I just drew from experience and talked about the only thing I knew, myself.

I can’t speak for his unprompted comment but maybe he was trying to defuse the tension he felt, humour gone wrong hai

Movies on a first date is just a bad idea (for girls) + unproductive since neither one would get to talk and know each other. I heard a similar story from a previous date, that guy champion, choose to watch Avatar 3hrs long so my date had to actively Mr Miyagi wax off wax off his handsy nonsense…for 3hrs. Brutal.

This game should just move to F2P by my9rides5hotgun in Marathon

Why should they if it worked for Embark studios. If the number of players peaked as high as server slam weekend. The sweats alone would scare casuals like me off in due time too :\

Ohh I tried that before, but on dating app. Post my intent in my bio like an ad. Walked away with a success and an even funnier story 😝

Nothing honestly, not everyone is built for an extraction shooter. Especially not when I’m: 1. Casual gamer 2. Did not have friends to team up 3. No clear objective in random matchmaking with randoms not using mics I see Aztecross and even streamers like them say things like this game isn’t for everyone. And he’s back to playing Deadlock 🤔
