A story was shared on the internet after a girl is facing some problem with her family just because her boyfriend does not come from a decent background and does not earn alot.

Here is the story:

Hi, I’m a lady and I’m dating a guy, we are both in our mid 30s.So we started dating for a few mths and it has been great until my parents found out the following:

• he is from a single parent family
• he is not as academically qualified (I’m a uni grad while he is several qualifications below, though now he is intending to pursue a ptime diploma)
• he earns much lesser than me (I earn more than double)

Tbh, he is probably the sweetest guy and most sincere person I have met. And he makes me feel really happy and secure (emotionally)! He took my words seriously, and made changes to his lifestyle like taking up the diploma and changing a job. Even though its early in the relationship, we wish to work towards marriage.

My parents who have not met him even totally objects and disapproves of this relationship. They said, they will disown me if I choose to pursue this without their support.I want this relationship to work, of course there are challenges ahead. But I feel with finances this is something that can be worked through with effort and time. My parents however, are not giving this a chance and would like to shut this down ASAP.

I am v confused because I love him alot and I’m willing to give it a shot. But the parental pressure is also amounting and causing a lot of distractions. He knows what is happening, and he is working on everything he can to solve them. But it will take time, effort and patience.

But 1 thing he can’t solve is his family background. This is a big concern to my family. Because they feel families should be compatible. This gap is too wide, and have ‘downgraded’ myself to be with him.I am so confused, I love him and want to give this a shot. But my family acceptance may never come because they don’t want to even meet him and will never accept his background. Also, I am clear that we are running on a tight timeline, and there are things we need to achieve financially in the next 1-2y in order for us to progress forward.

This is also communicated to him , but what if we achieved most of it and I wish to progress to marriage, and yet I still can’t get my parental approval? Please advise.

A 64-year-old man pleaded guilty on 26 July to 4 counts of sexual penetration of a minor under 14.

11 other similar charges will be taken into consideration during sentencing.

The victims and accused cannot be named due to a gag order.

What happened?

The man was working as a dishwasher and stayed alone at a HDB flat at the time.

The 13-year-old victims were staying in the same block as the man, and they got to know him through their father.

The man would meet the victims’ parents and ask for cigarettes.

The boy would run into the man occasionally at a nearby coffeeshop and ask him for cigarettes.

The man then eventually invited him to his flat to chat, the boy went on 2 occasions and asked him for cigarettes.

The boy then visited the man’s home some time before June 2016 for the third time and the man then played p*rnography on his laptop for the boy to watch.

The boy asked for cigarettes and the two then smoked together while watching p*rn, which was showing a man performing a sexual act on another man.

The man asked the boy if he could do the same to him and the boy complied.

The boy then felt disgusted but took $20 and a few ciggs from the man before leaving.

In June/July 2016, the boy wanted cigarettes and went to the man’s flat, knowing that the man would give him money and cigarettes for the sexual acts.

Targeted the boy’s 13-year-old sister

The man then began asking the boy’s sister for similar acts.

In May 2017, the girl was with a friend at a void deck when she chanced upon the man.

She asked him for cigarettes because she remembered her brother told her that the man had give him some.

The man said he didn’t have any on him and asked her to go to his flat later.

The girl’s friend was waiting at the staircase as she went up, with the offender telling her that if she wanted cigarettes she cannot bring a friend.

The girl then went to the man’s flat alone a few days later, who asked her to take off her shirt before he passed her a cigarette.

The girl refused in shock but the man told her that it would only be for a while.

The girl then did as she was told and the man molested her, he then asked her to perform a sex act on him, which she did.

The man then gave her $40 and told her not to tell anyone what happened.

A few days later the two met again at a void deck and he invited her to his house for cigarettes, where they smoked and the girl performed a sex act on him upon his request.

He then told her that he had no money that day but would give her some the next time he saw her.

She was given a few sticks of cigarettes and a few days later took $50 from him.

The crimes were revealed in 2 November 2019 when she lodged a police report claiming that her father had raped her.

The offences were uncovered during ensuing investigation and the officer then lodged a police report 4 days later.

A netizen shared a story of his curiosity saying that he wants to go to Geylang to procure some illegal services from women of the night at Geylang.

Here is his story:

Every time when I go to Geylang to eat frog porridge, I will also drink and I feel that my leg power like the frog and feel like exercise. I usually go to Lorong 18-24 to find the regulars to have my “after a drinking session”. Normally cost between $25 to $200.

Depend lah some despo one $15 dollar also do. But got one time I chance upon a few women wearing sari and lurking in the corner. I see some Bangla surround the woman keep teasing her but no close the deal.

So I go over and see also, the woman was delighted to see me and told me $100 for her services. wah first time I see this kind $100, but somehow her exposed belly turns me on.

Its like exotic delights, I always have this habit the food i never eat before I want try it at least once. So among the 3 woman standing there, I took the fattest one, its like buying meat in the market I picked the most juicy one.

Wah once you go sari you don’t go back, although it was full of bouncing the effort and skills were of supreme quality or either I too handsome lah.

I think I will return again once in a while for a change of flavours.

A 40-year-old man pleaded guilty to three charges of endangering the safety of a child, failing to present himself for a urine test under a supervision order, as well as voluntarily causing hurt.

He was sentenced on 26 July to 17 months jail, a fourth charge was taken into consideration during his sentencing.

What happened?

He was reportedly under a drug supervision order but didn’t show up for his urine test on 22 July 2019 without a valid reason.

The man then went to the police post to lodge a traffic accident report involving his company van.

Officers checked his particulars and realised that he was wanted for failing to report for a urine test under CNB.

The officer then discreetly called for backup, but the man found something amiss.

Two more officers arrived at the police post to escort the man’s wife to the toilet because nature was calling her.

The man then stood up with his 2-month old daughter in his arms, wanting to flee.

An officer stopped him but the man fled with his daughter in his arms, after which the police gave chase.

They chased him to the void deck of Block 370 Bukit Batok Street 31, and the man then threw his baby at one of the officers.

The officer managed to catch the baby (thankfully) and passed her to his colleague before resuming his chase, eventually nabbing him.

The baby was well and didn’t suffer any injuries.
