Not all sinkie women. I met some sinkie women are quite full of themselves, very opinionated, always comment on what she think it's right, like to correct people, do thing according to her feelings, mood, likes. Not the soft, tender or caring type.

And happened to certify by looking at the bazi chart

From women and their sisters POV, women are innocent, pure, always give in to the guys, working hard to make r/s better 🙄

Then guys are selfish baastards who didn't care WHAT THE WOMEN WANT.

Self entitlement that women now have the right to raise divorce if she feels he isn't earning "enuf". While the guy has never ever thought of divorce when she isn't contributing as much financially, emotionally, manually and faithfully towards the vows of marriage.

Really is unbalanced gender bias in deep exploitation.

i always read such story i thought quite distant from me until it happened. my colleague and his wife both in 40s, the wife of 10 years suddenly want a divorce, it shocked him and basically everyone, i have been to dinner with them a few times, they seem quite happy together. fortunately they were childless so no impact to kid.

seems the reason was bec of money, the wife didnt think he is financially strong enough to take care of him, i really wonder a 40+ year woman chances of getting hooked up again. the bloke is a nice guy everyone ard him ask him go get a vietnam wife.

btw the wife is a white collar professional. i heard she earn more than my colleague. really sg woman are that demanding these days? :eek:

Win-win situation. Wife can do legendary monkey branch to a better guy, husband can get a new younger model. Notch bad.

Mr Goh was shocked beyond belief when his wife of 11 years left home with their two young children last year and wanted a divorce.

Even though they had fought over issues big and small, and their marriage had been on the rocks for years, the 41-year-old analyst never thought that she would actually leave him.

"We have different personalities and perspectives, and our conflicts were never resolved," he said. "Over time, we had less and less patience for each other, and I gave her the cold shoulder. When she suddenly took the kids and left, I was very lost and depressed."

Mr Goh, who declined to give his full name, went for counselling - something his wife had asked him to go for, but which he had brushed off initially.

He also took an online programme aimed at salvaging marriages and picked up valuable pointers on how to better relate to and communicate with his wife. It worked and his wife is now giving their marriage a second chance.

Given his experience, he is suggesting that the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) include more content on effective communication and conflict resolution in its upcoming portal, which will provide information and support to couples headed for divorce or who want help saving their marriage.

The MSF is in the midst of consulting Singaporeans who have divorced, or were on the brink of a break-up like Mr Goh, to better customise the content for its yet-to-be-named portal, which is expected to be launched late next year.

The portal will consolidate information and resources re-lated to divorce, including housing, finance and legal matters.

Among other things, it will offer self-assessment tools to help people better understand their marital situation and their children's needs, and an online counselling support service.

QUESTIONNAIRE
Last month, MSF drew up an online questionnaire to find out the needs of potential users of the portal, and it had 113 respondents who had divorced or contemplated ending their marriage. These respondents are in their 30s and 40s and all have children, an MSF spokesman said yesterday.

MSF also sought feedback from professionals such as marriage counsellors.

It is now in phase two of its citizen engagement initiative and has had in-depth discussions with about 60 participants.

Its spokesman said: "The pre-divorce journey is a deeply emotional and personal one. The feedback from participants will be crucial to refine and nuance the material sensitively so that it can properly support couples in the painful pre- divorce space.

"The feedback will also surface gaps in the content for future phases of development."

It has identified five categories of couples, based on their experiences of why their marriages failed.

They include those who had problems right from the start, those whose unions crumbled under the pressures of life, and couples torn apart by adultery. There is also a group of those who want to save their marriages.

The spokesman said: "We hope the portal will save as many marriages as possible, but also - for whatever reason that couples choose to continue with the divorce proceedings - ensure that they, and especially their children, are well supported."

Is article is just selling koyok on MSF in stead of goh story... :s8:
