Voicing an unpopular opinion, a 27-year-old guy wrote that he would rather go out with sugar babies instead of finding a girlfriend.
In an anonymous post on confessions page NUSWhispers, the guy wrote: “For the longest time, I bemoaned my lack of dating success. I would look at friends who were attached and feel so much envy. Wondering why couldn’t [I] just find someone who I could care for, and would care for me in return”.
He added that he created an account on Sugarbook, an online dating service that was founded in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Sugarbook is most popular in the Southeast Asian countries of Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines. It is known for people to find “mutually beneficial relationships,” sugar babies and sugar daddies.
The guy wrote that after logging on to Sugarbook, he started seeing a few girls from the app. Not all of them were interested in physical relationships, “But it’s fine, I enjoy the company of them all. Taking them out to dinner, chatting with them, sending them home”.
He added that he was 27 years old, but looked for girls between the ages of 19 to 22.
“Some of these girls, for their own reasons need the money, and i’m happy to help them with it and make their life a little easier,” he wrote.
Since he had a job that paid well, he explained that after saving some money and investing some, he had enough to reward himself. “And I gotta say, it feels good,” he wrote.
His post garnered almost 100 reactions on Facebook and 70 comments. It also attracted the attention of former DJ and social media personality Jade Rasif.
Ms Rasif, known for being vocal on social media, wrote: “NUS admin, how much did you get paid to post this? Be honest”.
