I have known mee suah for years, long before he met his wife. When he finally found someone, I was genuinely happy for him! Watching them fall in love, get engaged and eventually tying the knot 👰🏻🤵🏻 felt like the perfect happily-ever-after 🥰 Except… it wasn’t 😥 Not long into the marriage,

This was never how I imagined my life would turn out. Like many girls, I thought I would fall in love 💞 get married 👰🏻‍♀️🤵🏻‍♂️ buy a home 🏡 with my other half and live happily ever after. Well, life doesn’t go according to how we planned it out to be doesn’t it? When my engagement 💍 didn’t

Have you ever experienced undeniable chemistry 🧪🔥 with someone else… while you were already in a relationship? Recently, I noticed an ex from years ago quietly viewing my Instagram Stories. We only dated for a few months, yet it made me wonder what became of him. He doesn’t post much on his s

Part 1 ended with a question: is it really love or convenience? This also made me reflect on something else… What is unconditional love & what does it look like? The first thing that comes to my mind is parents having unconditional love for their kids. Then again, if u were to dissect

After my recent post on Microcheating I found myself thinking about a conversation that happened years ago. A close guy friend told me something that has stayed with me for 2 decades: “The moment I develop even the slightest romantic feelings for another woman while I’m in a relationship, I w

We like to think we’ll always have “next time.” Next Father’s Day. Next family trip. Next photo together. Yet sometimes… there isn’t a next time. This Father’s Day was the last one where my client took photos with his children and grandchildren 😢 He had 1 dying wish, to travel to 1 more

I was discussing this with my spouse recently and his response surprised me. His opinion? He thinks the whole concept of “micro-cheating” is stirring shit 💩 Here’s how he explained it: Imagine your definition of cheating is a bar set at eye level 👀 Micro-cheating drags that bar down to chi

One of my girlfriends has it all. She’s gorgeous, kind, intelligent and highly successful in her career. Naturally, she had plenty of admirers over the years but somehow none of them ever became serious relationships. Then one day, she met the one 😍 They got engaged 💍 We celebrated 🥳 They

I have a few close guy friends. Let's call them laksa & latte ☕️ The 3 of us would hang out. At certain gatherings, our partners would join in. Latte ☕️ and his girlfriend have been together for 2 years. From what he shared, he's planning to propose during an upcoming trip in his bi

I was having a casual conversation with a girlfriend recently when the topic somehow drifted to cheating. She’s been happily married for 6 years, yet she casually said this, “honestly, I’ve seen so much that I wouldn’t even be shocked if my husband cheats on me.” That sentence genuinely stunned

Recently, this lady started popping up on my social media. Since Beansprouts 🌱 was our mutual friend, curiosity got the better of me & I went to check out her profile. I noticed they do activities together. Ahhh… common hobby, nothing out of line. I casually chatted her up here and there

Fishball & I were colleagues for at least 5 years. Since she lived just one street away from me, we were practically neighbours. Naturally, when I bought my own place, I invited her to my housewarming. Now let me set the scene beforehand. When she came over, she walked into my bedroom and la

Back where the drama once unfolded… and this time, I saw everything clearly. Read part I here Part I I made sure she wasn’t alone. The kids were with her. She greeted me simply, “Come, sit. Coffee or tea?” When she spoke about her husband… her eyes held unshed tears threatening to spill

So what did Beansprout 🌱 actually want? Read part I here Part I We finally met up. The 1st thing he did when he saw me was to extend both arms for a hug… I am not opposed to hugging my male friends… just that I didn’t want to hug him? We were in public, I didn’t want to make a scene… so ok, I

I’ll admit it, I’m a little cheeky when it comes to dating I like to throw in random curveballs just to see how the dude reacts 😆 Call it intuition, call it entertainment… I call it efficient screening 😌 Here are my litmus tests, in no particular order: The child test 🎨 Bringing him to

Here are some “dishes” I’ve tried once & will avoid ordering again 1. Dessert 🍰 Looks yummy, tastes good… for the first 2 bites. After that? Too sweet, cloyingly rich, pushes me in the verge of being diabetic 🫠 Translation: Overly affectionate, clingy, wanting to meet up too often!

I’m not a dessert person 🎂🧁🍮🍫 Sweet tooth? Not for me, save ice-cream 🍦 Same goes for men. Those overly sweet gestures that the male lead extends to the female lead? Yes, no doubt I’ll go “aww… that’s sweet” When I picture myself in the female lead’s shoes, it’s a different story 🤪 Sweet = st

Recently, I attended a self-development workshop. Interestingly, many weren’t just there to work on themselves. They were there because something at home wasn’t working. Some were trying to save their marriages, while some were trying to repair relationships with their kids. Hence this made m

Everyone talks about about red flags 🚩what about grey areas? 🤔 When we first started dating, my then boyfriend (now husband) already had two permanent female fixtures in his life. One is his ride-or-die buddy since secondary school. The other is a former crush turned long-time good friend.
