US CDC NOW CLASSIFIES SINGAPORE AS ‘LEVEL 3’ INSTEAD OF ‘UNKNOWN’

0

About a week ago, Singapore was classified by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as ‘unknown’ with regards to its travel advisory.

On 10 January 2022, they have updated their advisory which put Singapore as a ‘Level 3’ destination where there are ‘high’ levels of Covid-19.

Urges citizens to be fully vaccinated before travel to Singapore

The CDC website also urged the citizens of the United States to be fully vaccinated before travelling to Singapore, while urging the unvaccinated to avoid travel here.

According to their website, countries which are labelled as Level 3 have a rate of about 100-500 new cases over the past 4 weeks per a population of 100,000.

Countries with Level 3 classification

Besides Singapore, the CDC has labelled a few countries under Level 3 as well and they are:

  1. Malaysia
  2. South Korea
  3. Israel
  4. Australia
  5. UAE

‘Unknown’ Classification last week

Previously on 4 January 2022, the classification given to Singapore by the US CDC was ‘Unknown’.

The CDC then said that this was due to the fact that even travelers who are fully vaccinated run the risk of getting the virus and being a host to spread it.

GIRL FOUND OUT BOYFRIEND HAS BEEN LYING ABOUT BEING A VIRGIN FOR A YEAR

0

A netizen shared how he boyfriend has been lying to her about being a virgin for a year and she just found out about it.

Here is the story:

“my boyfriend and i have been dating for over a year now, and ever since before we started dating he’s told me that he’s a virgin and that i’d be his first, and the thought made me happy since i had never even kissed a guy before so i guess i felt like at least he’s a tiny bit inexperienced so i won’t feel bad about me being inexperienced.

then a few days ago i was asking about if he’s done what we do (explicit texting and stuff like that) with girls before me, and he said that he hasn’t cause he just did things in person with them. i wasn’t surprised by this, i’ve already known about him doing stuff with a past girlfriend, but when i asked more about it i found out that he’s been lying about being a virgin.

i wanted to know more about it but he said he felt uncomfortable about it so i dropped it and went to bed. but all night i was thinking about it. i wasn’t upset that i wasn’t going to be his first, i was just upset that he’s been lying about it since i met him.

like why would you lie about that? i’ve been thinking that maybe he didn’t tell me cause he felt bad that i was super inexperienced and wanted me to feel better about it, but then that thought led to does he pity me for not having done anything?

idk if i should be upset about this cause i feel a bit upset but he said he doesn’t want to talk about it again cause he said it’s weird to talk about past girlfriends, which i understand. i just don’t get why he’d lie, cause now im wondering what else he’s lying about in our relationship.”

GIRL DOESN’T KNOW HOW TO TELL BROTHER THAT SHE AND FATHER HATES HIS WIFE

0

A netizen shared how the whole side of her family doesn’t like her sister in law very much and feel like she is controlling her husband.

Here is the story:

“My whole side of the family have never liked my sister in law very much but we’re cordial. We often feel like she is controlling or manipulative towards us and her husband.

They only talk to us when they want something from us – previously, my dad has offered to do little tasks for them like put up a cupboard or help decorate, and they’ve left him to do all of it by himself.

Lately, they’ve been calling a lot saying their baby daughter wants to see us because she keeps talking about us and “you have to come down because we have a job list as long as my arm you need to do” – no please, no nothing, they expect us to just do all their plumbing and electricity and wood work (dad was a highly skilled engineer for 50 years and I’m an electromechanical technician).

We feel like they are demanding unpaid labour of us and trying to use the baby constantly talking about us (which I’m sure they’re fuelling by talking about us all the time to her) to emotionally manipulate us into thinking we’re obligated to go “for the baby”.

My sister in law told me flat out my long distance boyfriend she’s never met is “double-triple-quadruple-timing” me (who even says that??) and when I got upset and walked away she followed me with the baby saying she “missed her auntie” to try and defuse me, and neither my dad nor I can stand to be around her anymore.

I don’t have a close relationship with my brother in the first place, so how do I tell him we don’t want to visit him anymore without causing a massive blowup? I can’t keep dodging the question forever but I don’t want to be an -ss about it.”

GIRL’S FATHER DOESN’T KNOW THAT SHE IS NOT HIS BIOLOGICAL DAUGHTER

0

A netizen shared how her father doesn’t know that she is not his biological daughter, and she is asking what she should do.

Here is the story:

“my mom recently told me that I am not my father’s daughter. my biological father is someone I’ve always thought my mom’s good friend, and I met him a couple of times growing up. there was one time the 3 of us (my mom, my biological father, and me) went to the mall together where he bought me a bag

I was born 2 years after my parents got married, so my mom was definitely having an affair and my mom told me that my dad doesn’t even know I’m not his daughter, which means he doesn’t know he was cheated on (they are still married now)

I live far away from my parents and I don’t have a good relationship with my dad. the last time I talked to him was 2 years ago. even so, I still feel guilty keeping this from him, but I also cannot go behind my mom’s back and tell him everything

what should I do? asking my mom to tell him is not an option, so should I keep this from him for the rest of my life and act like nothing’s wrong? should I tell him and ruin my parent’s marriage? or should I just cut ties with him since I’m not her biological daughter anyway?”

FATHER’S LOVER WANT TO WALK DAUGHTER DOWN THE AISLE, ARGUMENT

0

We are very traditional and my mom and dad both spent at least part of their childhood in Malaysia. My dad was raised to believe that you marry a woman who will make a good mom and who fits some social requirements, and you can sleep with anyone you want on the side. I get that is something he was raised with, but he was in the SG at the time of his marriage and wasn’t totally unaware of how most people view marriage.

He married my mom because she was very nurturing and he knew she would make a great mom, but he had girlfriends on the side throughout their marriage. When I was 12 he met “Anna” at a party and he literally had my mom take the car and talk to her for 8 hours. She became his best friend which was greatly upsetting to my mom.

My dad and Anna definitely had an emotional affair, which became physical at some point. From 12-18 she was always around, hanging on him, making inappropriate jokes in front of my mom, sleeping over our house sometimes when she fought with her husband (Anna comes from a similar culture and married for money/status) Needless to say I hate Anna.

Soon after, he divorced my mom and immediately proposed to Anna. My mom has never gotten over this. She has zero idea how to date or move on and hates him to the point she hardly wants to be in the same room as him.

I’m getting married soon and decided to have my mom walk me down the aisle. When I told my dad he was clearly upset and ended our visit abruptly. Anna sent me a long long message about how I’m a privileged girl and I have no idea what it was like growing up in the kampong days and the things that shaped my dad, and that I am hurting him with my ignorance and righteousness. She said she hates that he is still paying for my wedding because I don’t deserve a thing.

At this point I want to uninvite Anna but probably won’t, but AITA for not having my dad walk me down the aisle. I love him. He was a great dad, but I feel that actions have consequences, and my mom is more deserving.

GUY’S GIRLFRIEND KEEPS CALLING HIM A “LOSER”, DOESN’T KNOW WHAT TO DO

0

A netizen shared how his girlfriend resorts to calling him a loser whenever they get into arguments and he doesn’t know what to do.

Here is the story:

My girlfriend resorts to calling me a loser when we’re arguing.

The other night my girlfriend and I got into an argument over a jealous issue. (We have our trust/relationship issues, and are trying to work through them.) However, every now and then while arguing she gets disrespectful and will begin calling me names. The most hurtful being, “loser”.

While this might not seem that bad, I’ve opened up to her in the past about my self-confidence issues. I’v made myself vulnerable to her and explained, with tears in my eyes that I struggle with feeling like a loser.

I’ve explained that far too often I find myself feeling like a disappointment and thinking that my family, the world, and her all think I’m a loser.

These are issues that I have struggled with for a long time (I have dealt with and have received professional help for my mental issues since my teenage years) and to this day have a huge effect on my self-esteem.

It’s also hurtful that she refers to me as a loser even after all I do for her and our relationship. I told her I would take care of rent and the household bills so that she would feel okay to not work so often and not need to work full time.

So for the past year I’ve been paying the rent and bills. I am always doing her chores at home, she doesn’t like cleaning, washing clothes etc etc (not very many people do, I get that, but I know it’s showing that needs to get done) but I’d say our cleaning is split 80/20.

I make sure she’s taken care of in the bedroom as well, I make it known that I live to please her during intercourse. All the while she is somewhat lazy with pleasing me and it seems like more of a chore to her.

I basically live to try and make her life easier by providing wherever I can. I give her all of my time, provide financially and emotionally, but somehow I’m still a loser.

I’m at the point where I’m not sure what to do. I don’t want to not be with her, but I feel like I’m not respecting myself if I continue to stay.
