A Singaporean girl recently posted on Facebook after she felt that her NS serving boyfriend is cheap as he could only bring her for dates at hawker centers and she felt that the food isn’t Instagram worthy.
Here is the full story.
I am 20 and my bf is 22 and he is currently in NS which means he earns barely enough to support me. Whenever I request to eat something that is apparently not very comfortable to his wallet (not sure what that means), he will always insist we eat at a nearby foodcourt or hawker?
Firstly, places like that are usually very dirty and hot like why would I even consider dining there? The food’s good but he brought me out for a date so I shouldn’t even be expecting him to request us to eat there? Like it’s a date and I barely get to see him because he only books out on the weekend. Secondly, I prefer food that looks pretty so I can take Instagram worthy pictures of it and have my bragging rights?
Lastly, I don’t want to be seen dressed up in a very cute dress while at a hawker? That doesn’t look pretty to me anymore. Even when eating out at a mall, I was obviously craving for pasta and of course I wanted Hoshino, but he could only offer to dine in at Saizeriya because it was cheaper for him. Wtf? I will never step foot into that restaurant knowing that is where all the poor people go to when they want to eat pasta and try to pretend they are atas, BECAUSE WESTERN IS EXPENSIVE.
Eventually we did ended up in Hoshino, but he didn’t order his food because mine was already $13 which is double of what is offered at Saizeriya in terms of price. Whatever, at least I got to eat what I wanted :). He then went home and cook Maggie for himself? How broke can anyone be? Don’t get a girlfriend if you can’t afford it, especially when you’re in NS. I need some advice and or suggestions to open up my bf’s wallet like stop being stingy…
