Got one guy go all out, like really full-on romantic, kneel down and propose to his girlfriend inside Jewel Changi, right in front of that famous waterfall. Got crowd somemore, all the aunties and uncles kaypoh-ing, some even whip out phone record TikTok liao.
He bring flower bouquet, hire friend take video, even wear formal shirt, sweat until back wet also still act steady. When he open the ring box ah, you can see the sparkle from the stone — quite big ok, not those pasar malam type. But then hor… things go downhill super fast.
The girlfriend look at the ring, pause for one second, then suddenly face change. She say, “Erm… this ring from where ah? Got receipt or not? It’s not Tiffany & Co hor.”
The guy a bit stunned, like kena lightning strike. Say he save up for months, choose this diamond from some popular jeweller, not branded but confirm GIA certified. Thought she will be touched by the effort. But the girl just shake her head and say, “If not Tiffany, don’t want. I got standard one leh.”
Then she WALK AWAY. In front of everyone. Never even give him chance to explain more. Crowd all damn awkward — some whispering, some pretend scroll phone, one uncle behind even mutter “Wah this one drama sia.”
Poor guy just squatted there, still holding the ring, eyes red-red but trying to hold it in. After few minutes, his friend come and help him up. They walk off slowly, like kena minus 100 HP.
Netizens later say maybe the girl kena influenced by too much K-drama or IG reels. Some say she just materialistic, others defend her, say maybe she expect branded because he promise before or something. But most people agree — rejecting someone in public like that, confirm overkill.
One auntie post online, “Aiyo boy ah, next time find someone who love you for you, not the box the ring come in.”
Another joker comment, “She want Tiffany? Ask her go find Louis also lah.”
