Helping fellow boyfriends here. How to do a surprise proposal in SG before BTO.

During the dating stage, I will make it clear to the girl that I am dating for marriage, looking for a committed relationship. So on the off chance that we may end up married, can the girl share exactly what ring she likes and her ring size. Then wait and date as per normal for years or however long yall want. Then by the time, you wanna propose, you have the ring size + type info ready to go.

One level higher is asking the girl what is her ideal proposal? the girl most of the time will share readily one. Commit to memory. must ah.

You may not end up with this girl la, but all the info is with you all the way liao and the girl defo will not expect it coz the wait could be years. Yall can plan the proper proposal before applying bto and you filter those that only wanna play, not looking for a serious relationship.

Also, if the girl has drastic weight change during the relationship, the guideline for ring size is……… +10kg to + 15kg = + half ring size to 1 ring size. So adjust accordingly.

Here are what netizens think

One of the netizens propose undervalued jewellery of brand but physically it does not hold much value in the market

“Just get her a promise ring from pandora. Go tgt. Then u know the size alr. And she will keep wearing it, then you’ll know if the size change or not lo“

• So fast chope for marriage. Later if both not suitable how? Cry. Man man lai, take ur time to get to know first.
  
• When you ready to propose, pretend tell her check the nut size using her finger.You may be lucky if she like the nut instead and save you money for bto…Don’t scare all the girls first time dating already talk marriage.

With the recent fiasco with the security system of OCBC, the bank has stepped up to further protect its customers.

OCBC recently announced that they will be implementing several measures to help protect their customer’s bank accounts such as:

• Allowing customers to adjust their account-to-account and overseas funds transfer limits for online banking
• deactivating funds transfers completely by setting their transfer limit to $0
• sending transaction notifications to customers’ existing mobile numbers or email addresses registered with the bank whenever there is a request to change their mobile number or email address.

New implementation

• removed clickable links in marketing emails or SMSes.
• The Bank has never sent SMSes with links regarding banking transactions. With the recent spate of scams they have
• reduced the default funds transfer daily limit for PayNow
• The amount allowed to be transferred per transaction is also reduced from the default of S$1,000 to S$200.

Fees

Our transaction notifications for funds transfers and payments for PayNow and FAST transfers are now put at S$0.01 today.

Team

OCBC has implement a team to fight scams. Here is what they say:

To assist customers who had fallen prey to the SMS phishing scam impersonating OCBC, we set up a dedicated customer service care team to handle customer queries and reports on fraud. This team has now been made permanent. Our OCBC hotline (1800 363 3333) now contains a dedicated option for customers to escalate reports of suspected scams.

We will continue in our ongoing efforts to educate and inform customers about scams through multiple channels such as our social media channels, email, SMS, and on our website and mobile banking login pages. We would like to again remind consumers to be alert, protect their bank account login credentials, and to only perform banking transactions through the Bank’s official website and mobile banking apps.

Just wanna rant a bit about my feelings lately. It’s been horrendously uneasy for me in the recent months, as it’s a regret that I’ve came across in my life. I perhaps need some advice on how to live with this specific regret.

My ex and I broke up for more than a year. We both were at fault, but for months after our breakup he was willing to pick up the mess to reconcile. He reassured me that he will change, he will compromise, he will try his best to give me the time and attention that I need, he promised to fix our relationship issues and not run away from them. However I firmly believed the saying that over is over and there is no turning back. Every time he texted me, I just blueticked without replying. He sent gifts to me at my office but I gave them to my colleagues or threw them away. He tried his best to reconcile me for about half a year before he finally gave up on me.

I guess sometimes my life is just a silly joke. Recently a close friend of mine told me that he is now together with an acquaintance of mine during JC. He doesn’t know that we were acquaintances, and she didn’t know we were together either. Long story short, from what I heard, he treats her extremely well. He does things that he didn’t do for me, like accompanying her to her nearest bus stop or mrt station after every meetup, surprise her flowers once in a while, took her to a cruise recently just because she loves travelling so much, went over to her place to cook for her, always refuses to quarrel back whenever they fight. As compared to me, my friend is much closer to her, so she shared with me a lot about my ex and his new girlfriend.

The more I think about it, the more I regret not giving him a chance. What’s worse is that I sometimes really hate this acquaintance, and I low key feels that she stole my happiness and I deserve thousands of thank you from her. There are times I wish they just breakup and he will return to me. It sounds absurd, and I know it’s wrong to think so negatively of her but honestly I can’t help it. If I could go back in time, I would gladly give my ex the chance to reconcile.

It’s terribly difficult for me to move on.”
