According to AsiaOne News:

THEY are attractive, well-educated, have good careers and are financially independent.

They have gone through several relationships. And yet…

Singapore women like them occupy space on the mind of Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, who devoted a substantial portion of last Sunday’s National Day Rally speech to their plight – and its impact on a society’s procreation problem.

Reason: They are into their late 20s – and still single.

Why?

- Let me summarize the article in point form.

What these ladies don’t like about their ex-bf

1. he left all the wedding preparation to my parents and me.
2. too possessive and he didn’t like that I was outgoing.
3. those that gossip and bitch endlessly, like san gu liu po (nosy relatives).
4. Control freaks – like my ex-fiance – also put me off. (again)
5. as long as we don’t fool around, I don’t feel you should demand that your partner reports your every movement.

Ladies’ ideal partner is

1. financially stable
2. it’ll definitely help if we don’t have to worry about bills before the next pay-day.
3. he must also have time for me and the family
4. doesn’t have to be drop-dead gorgeous, just pleasant to the eye
5. don’t stop me from being myself.

I am a single guy now but hesitate to even look at a local girl for future marriage because of the following.

1. Many don’t know how to cook
2. Many are just like me, a freedom seeker
3. Many loves “rich” boyfriends and may leave you anytime.
4. Many looks down on “ordinary” boyfriends.

Basically, I wish to love somebody who are willing to love back unconditionally…able to go through thick and thin regardless of situation.

Money is not everything, she may need to get the enlightenment that money can’t buy happiness. In Singapore, probably only 10% of the guys here are truly well off and they likely play all the girls everywhere…with their million dollar sports car.

I understand that some girls are smarter then the guys but I don’t like those who over exert their superiority over the guy in a simple discussion and practice the “you are always wrong” mantra that my mum always use.

My parents are divorced because lacked of understanding during the 80′s economic crisis when my dad lost his jobs and remain jobless for sometime. My mum will always nag at him non-stop regardless if he say anything or not.

My father usually will simply keep quiet and walk away closing the door behind him without saying anything.

My mum never listen…my dad never talk, end of relationship after many years of marriage.

(My dad now is a well paid construction foreman and remarried with a loving wife, my mum remains single and broke until now)

There is one common solution that is to import oversea females to marry the guys here, they are much more willing to work hard together with the guy to tide over difficult challenges together. Listens to the guy’s problems and understands their position in life.

Bonus is they are used to the hard life, they are willing to do the dishes and cleaning up without complains. Of course, I won’t let the girl wash the dishes alone…but hardship are part and parcel of life….it takes great love to pull each other together and to death till us part.

Singapore females are generally more in number versus the guys in numbers so it’s unfortunate that they are getting less and less options if they slammed their doors even before it’s being knocked.
