I dunno whether its the trend now… I saw many stories of breakup in forums nowadays… and these breakups are not simple ones… most of them are breakups after
- applying for the flat
- selection of flat
- signing of agreement of lease
- after proposal
some even breakup after deposit payment of the banquet venue!!!
seriously, I dunno what’s wrong with these people who choose to break up after going through so much… yes, alot of money wasted… $$ for application of the flats (at least $10), selection ($2k), agreement of lease (at least 5% of the flat), proposal ring ( at least $2k I think) and not forgetting the 20% of the banquet.. wah lau…
forget abt the money issues.. even if its becos of incompatibility issues, then, in the 1st place, marriage should not be in the cards at all.. if one party think its not compatible or becos of infidelity, the more shouldnt commit to agreeing a marriage…. applying of flat is a long term thing.. shldnt becos everyone else is applying, then just follow blindly… be fair to those who really need a flat….
whenever I hear stories of such breakups, I feel angry and also very sad for the couple.. haiz…
and when I know abt frens’ breakup, I wanted to concern and know why… but at the same time, I’m afraid that I will be named as kapoh… how to let them know I just want to give them support, to lend them my ears or even my shoulders to cry on.. I think its a natural reaction to “ask” to frens whom you treasure alot…. but pple often misinterpret the intention…
becos of the fear of being labelled as kapoh, I try not to ask now… they will tell me when he/she feels like it… if he/she is comfortable, I am always willing to listen even though I am not a good adviser…
concern is from the heart.. concern and kapoh is just a line of difference…
