A man wrote in online for advice on the NUS Whispers Facebook page, seemingly at a loss for what to do about his girlfriend of one year.
It seems that her behaviour is difficult to bear, both for himself and for his family, and what’s more, is that he has never even met her family despite the length of time they’ve been together.
“It’s really tiring n hurtful to tolerate her actions and giving ur best to her while she just think i am still not up to her standard,” he wrote.
He did say at the beginning that she had not always been this way.
“At first it’s always the sweet, happy moments but nowadays, i have always been tolerating her unreasonable actions… she have a lot of demands and she’s very easily emotional.”
The poster then proceeded to give examples.
One time, when she stayed at his place overnight due to the rain, even though his parents made dishes, especially for her, she said she had no appetite and refused to eat them. Later, however, she ordered dinner from GrabFoods.
Secondly, when he drove his girlfriend and his mother to go shopping, he raised the temperature for his mum, who gets cold easily, but his girlfriend shouted that he doesn’t “care about her” and that he’s “a Mama’s Boy.”
Thirdly, she once treated him badly because she had a dream of him cheating on her with other girls, adding, “she had that dream because i don’t give her enough attentions for her to feel secure in a relationship.”
Finally, she has not introduced him to her family as “i haven’t gotten to her kind of standard for me to meet her family etc.”
As can be expected, netizens advised the man to break up with his girlfriend, especially due to her lack of respect for him and his family.
“There are plenty of better girls around,” one wrote.
“A good woman doesn’t behave like that,” wrote another.
Another opined, “Don’t even think about marrying her.”
Others had the same advice.
