My advise to young couples is that they should at least be in a relationship for 3-4 yrs before going for marriage. Dun rush into one
After 3-4 yrs of bf/gf, they will more or less know each inside out
Just nice scroll to this on IG



Sometimes I guess people stay because 怕麻烦, the ones that dare to walk away and let each other go free maybe also courageous

It's almost impossible to change your partner character or wish for him/her to be the one U want, it's much easier if we learn to accept or just walk away.

my experience is quite different so probably irrelevant to most. my wife contributed alot to the marriage. gave me healthy beautiful kids. that's priceless on its own. she can get upset over minor things. some women are like that. i'm drawn to women who are difficult to please. so i changed those parts of my behaviour that she didn't like. it's about adjusting the mindset & speech to suit the audience. make her happy can liao lor. took me a while but i did change and it really made her happy

At which point, what is the boundary crossed, that u feel must divorce riao no other way?
Whoa. No such thing as no other way. The other day I was listening to a sermon on this very topic

so it went something like this. “Divorce is permissible under 3 circumstances. Adultery, abuse, abandonment. Some would add and say drug addiction is another reason but that can fall under abuse and abandonment. While divorce is permissible under these circumstances, there is no commandment to divorce, meaning it’s not a must to divorce”

which goes directly back to the question. Boundaries may be crossed. Divorce may be acceptable under such circumstances and people may even encourage you to seek divorce but there is no requirement for you to do so

So no such thing as no other way

my wife and her women friends all like handsome guys. i never heard of an unmarried girl saying looks isn't important except in edmw, places of worship, beer ladies, social media and jav

but what each girl finds good looking can vary, so indeed some girls do like guys who aren't good looking, but he's handsome from her pov

So u are the compromiser lor which is not a bad thing but do u think u will snap over the minor things she gets annoyed over eventually?

The thing is abuse can be viewed very widely.

Ya I can tell u
See handsome one scold u, or lying on the sofa potato, or little bit then guailan… is much more enjoyable than seeing a bbfa do all those things.

men on edmw complain girls become dinobu but honestly lots of singaporean men also become Dino after marriage… and still feel they quite yandao… :s13: girls got more 容貌焦虑 and want to keep pretty
