Is it normal to sleep with my mum?

I’m a 26 yr old male and have been sleeping on the same king size bed as my mum for 4 years.

Due to the bad sleeping habits both my parents have, they dislike sleeping together, hence my dad sleeps on my bed while I share the same bed as my mum.

To me, I don’t see this as an issue but when I told my friends about it, they say its weird and suggested I should switch bed with my dad or sleep on the sofa.

What are your opinions on this? Is this weird?

Netizens’ comments

• Hmmm. Do you want more privacy? Would you like your own room? Or maybe it would be better to sleep on a mattress on the floor.

If you are looking to date someone and this comes up, the other person might think it’s inappropriate and not continue the relationship.

• Personally, I dont think it is weird so long as you dont have the wrong intentions. I love my mom alot and honestly as you grow older you wont have much time to spend with her/ be close to her once you move out etc.

• I think it’s ok, my parents are the same. One needs to sleep in an air-con room, the other can’t even tahan a fan. But past a certain age, maybe you can consider getting a mattress for yourself. It’s not about whether it’s weird or not, it’s just a matter of boundaries for yourself and your mum.

With the number of ongoing scams that have been going around, one would always have to be careful with our money, login credentials and other banking information.

A netizen recently posted online after he was told to pay a deposit in order to view a property by a property agent he contacted via social media.

Here is what he said:

He claims to be a property agent and was asking for a $500 deposit for booking/reservation an appointment for viewing the property for RENTAL (261c Punggol Way)

I also noticed someone was trying to alert other people in the Facebook groups about this scammer.

There is no need to pay an agent to secure a viewing appointment. Please verify the agent’s contact details by checking the advertised number against the Real Estate Council’s registry (search under “Salesperson”). If the search does not lead to a property agent’s profile page, it means that the phone number is not registered with CEA by any property agent, and could be an indication that the advertisement is a scam.

It is always encouraging to check the property agent’s details in the property listing against the CEA Public Register to verify that the property agent is registered with CEA. You can do so by searching for the property agent on the CEA Public Register using the advertised phone number. 

Scams

This kind of scams were common in the United Kingdom and victims are typically told to pay money to secure a viewing appointment.

This kind of scam are uncommon in Singapore but it exists. Take note and warn your friends and families.

A man shared his story about his Thai wife stating that his life has been turned upside down after marriage and he hopes his story can help others.

Here is his story:

Hi all, like many of us that were once tempted by the allure of the siam bu, we ended up marrying one. Like everything in life, there are two sides to a coin.

Just to be clear, I have stopped drinking after marriage and go out less than 10 times a year with friends, this includes friend’s weddings and other special occasions. Here are the pro and cons:

Pro

• Very pretty

• Can cook and takecare home

• Nighttime activity very gao lat

• Very loyal

Cons

• Every single small dispute will be made known on Facebook and you totally lose all your face

• Always suspicious of me despite I have not gone out for months

• Peeping at my phone when I’m sleeping and asking who is my female colleague, only to realise that the colleague not pretty enough to be a threat

• Back in her homeland, the mother knows she marry a foreigner and always demands money (The usual bs story, mother sick, cow sick, dog sick BS)

• Have to report strength wherever I go, go to NTUC downstairs must take selfies, go office must take selfies in the office to prove my location. (Lan jiao la, if i really want cheat can take all these photos beforehand)

• Have no sense of money, get a salary of $3,000 then buy a $2,000 bag then ask me for money cause she does not have enough to survive the month. When I asked her why she buy it, this is her exact justification: “My friend have I always want have post on Facebook”

• I go pang sai for a long time cause constipated she thinks I calling girl in the toilet, so I never flush and show her the big pile of chocolate.

Conclusion

This is not an isolated incident, I have had several siam bu GF before. All the pattern 80% the same for the pro and cons. Not asking you guys not to marry siam bu, you marry what country bu also got some monkey problem one.

This is my nightmare and my warning, thank you for reading.
