A girl thinks that the Police is very free and reported the Police for failing to meet the seller from Carousell. The girl was late and the seller waited for her for 48mins but she ki siao go report Police say the seller missing in action.

Here is the story:

Kindly advise on this Carousell buyer.

The day before, I asked the buyer to give it a good thought before making any payment to reserve the item. After payment, buyer screenshot and Whatsapp me to liaise on time and location. I informed the buyer that I can also do home delivery with advanced notice.

But the buyer emphasizes she wants to get an item secretly because she does not want her partner to find out that she spends money. After payment is made at around 5:40 pm, the Buyer wants the delivery on the same day, one of Hillview gate, after her partner has fallen asleep at 11 pm or later, to be confirmed. It is a far trip from where I stay and late so I declined

The buyer wants next morning 10:30 am at Plaza Sing next day. I agreed with her several requests and ending the chat, Buyer reminded not to change the time and date. The next day, around 10 am, she told me she will be late and I replied to her that I have already reached the agreed dhoby ghaut location at 9:30 am, and I did not rush her. Since she will reach later than the agreed time 10:30 am, I remain at my current location without proceeding to the meetup place. We agreed that she will WhatsApp me when she is 10 mins away from Toast box so can make my way down. At 10:44 am, she told me she exit MRT and walking over to the Toast box. The distance is less than 4min away. She reached at 10:48 am.

I replied to her at 10:48 I ask for 5mins. Afraid that she worried, I stayed online replying to her at the same time. She suddenly appears unhappily and wanted a refund. And have 2 more conditions that I have to meet her PERSONALLY NOW. At 10:54 am, she demanded that I refund the money to her, if not, she will file a police report on me for ???. As the buyer the last min made 2 more requests, I have to prepare..

At 11:01 am, she says she is already on the way to the Orchard neighbourhood police station to file a police report. If I want to prevent her from making the report, I have to refund her NOW. I told her we are on the line communicating and I am walking, why am I mia? I am contactable. And buyer did not let me know 10 min prior to arrival which I reminded her to do so, and I was early, she was late from the agreed 10:30 am at the location.

If she has done that, to inform me 10mins earlier, I will be on time. Even on the first agreed time on the 10:30 am meet up location. I was on time. Buyer is not on time always. When I reached ard 11 am, I searched for a buyer first. I asked what is she wearing. I further confirmed and send a photo to the buyer on phone at 11:07 am to evidence that I reached and to show that I am here. I am not Mia. Unless she purposely deleted the msgs and only shown what she wants to. As buyer also deleted important msgs as checked.

Despite the buyer knowing the fact that I am always contactable and trying hard to reach her asap, there no reply. I waited and stay around Plaza Sing till 2-3pm. But buyer insists on making police report at around 11:30 am and for what matter???. At 11:54 am, the buyer have finished making the ??? The Police Report which is not true. Then buyer PROUDLY send me a picture covering police report number and her name showing me she have done that and DEMANDED me to refund her the money as a proof to make me frightened. I am unsettled now.What should i do now? I need advice.

How do I be nicer to my GF? Sometimes I find, when I’m under a lot of stress from work, I say very mean things to my GF.

Looking back, I’m unfairly taking it out on her but at those moments, I just couldn’t help it. I’m able to hold back sometimes but others, I can’t. I know myself best and since I was young,

I’m a naturally cruel person with mean thoughts. Everyone feels like an angel in comparison to me. I suppress and never reveal this – never snapped around friends and workers, but when someone is really close like family or partner, I get too comfortable and my filter fails.

I hate this about myself and I hate hurting my GF. In our 2 years of relationship, I’ve done this to her maybe 3 times and regretted it each time. How can I help myself become a kinder person from the bottom of my heart? I worry I’m doomed that I should never let anyone close with my nature.

The authorities have once again had to deploy vehicles for another rescue at Clementi forest after a hiker was injured.

Just days ago, the authorities had to rescue a hiker who got lost in Clementi Forest.

According to the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF), they were alerted to a case where a person was injured in Clementi forest on National day(August 9) at about 6 PM.

In their statements, four SCDF firefighters and an ambulance had to travel almost 1km deep into the forest before finding the injured person. The rescuers had to carry the injured hiker out of the forest on a stretcher for 2km via another exit of the forest.

It is believed that the route of entry was not suitable for carrying a stretcher out and the rescuers had to take a long way.

The injured person was send to Ng Teng Fong General Hospital for treatment.

A netizen shared a story of reconsidering her boyfriend after realising that he has health issues. Well, Let’s look at marriages vows:

“I, _____, take you, _____, for my lawful wife/husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part. I will love and honor you all the days of my life.”

The girl probably will never be happy if she don’t understands in “in sickness and in health”.

Here is the story:

Hi all, I am writing to seek for genuine advices. Would appreciate if you do not judge and reply in a nice manner. I have been single for the longest time ( previous relationships were short-lived and had been dating with potential suiters that didn’t have mutual feelings).

I am the kind who “falls in love too deep, too fast” and am always the one who “woo” guys. Would linger for a while (like stay and hang out as friends with them) even after being rejected due them “not ready for a relationship”. I was often heartbroken after they eventually got into a relationship.

This happened twice and I finally realised that guys will always be “not ready” for the one they have no interest in. I learned my lesson to “cut off” in a hard way. Long story short, I finally met a guy who treats me well and embraced my imperfections. However, am writing to seek for advices if I should carry on knowing that he has serious health concerns.

I have feelings for him but my mum keeps asking me to reconsider our relationship and said that I will “suffer” in future if I eventually want to settle down with him (like, our offsprings might have poor genes/ he might pass on early etc…).

Thank you in advance for your advices!

Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, addressed the nation during his National Day Message yesterday (8 August).

During his speech, he touched on many topics, including the recent spate of racist incidents and the racial harmony in Singapore.

He said that several racist incidents have gained wide publicity and “amplified by social media”, but they are “not the norm.”

He said that the negative incidences do not mean that Singapore’s racial harmony is failing.

He said:

“It is helpful to air and acknowledge these sensitive issues. We need to do this candidly and respectfully.

It took several generations of sustained effort to bring our races and religions together, and grow the common space that we now share.”

He added that Singapore’s racial and religious harmony was borne out of the “fruit of mutual understanding and compromise by all parties”, and not by “every group stridently insisting on its identity and rights”.

He added:

“Our social norms evolve with each successive generation, shaped by different life experiences and aspirations. These norms are also influenced by external trends, because we are so open and connected to the rest of the world.”

Finally, he further added that the racial harmony in Singapore needs to be “refreshed, reaffirmed and reinforced” with every new generation, he said:

“We must not lightly give up this hard-won and delicate balance. As our society evolves, we have to continually adjust this balance to maintain our social harmony.

It is the government’s duty to manage these issues on behalf of all Singaporeans, regardless of race, language or religion. To do this, we will need your cooperation, support and trust.”
