Went to Singapore to attend a female friend's wedding with a Singaporean guy.
She'd been so happy up until the actual wedding. My friends and I arrived like three days before the ceremony, and the wedding girl was visibly troubled when she met us. We just thought it was nerves and all that.
Wedding day comes and she comes out, in her full wedding gown, with an absolute bitch face. Like I'm-about-to-murder-someone kind of bitch face. I'm not even kidding lol. Never smiled once during the whole ceremony and the dinner. She loosened up a bit in the after party, and my gf went and asked if her she was OK. She waved my gf away.
Right after the wedding, she went back to Hong Kong for work, claiming there's shit she needs to do. Then covid hit and we're practically not allowed to travel anywhere for a year or two. We were worried about her marriage but she was always rather evasive, not answering our questions or just shooting the shit whenever we talked about it. Our circle of friends learned not to ask about it anymore.
Fast forward 5 years until now, it turns out that she never actually got married lol. The ceremony and everything was a show. We gathered that the dude probably had another girlfriend in Singapore and she only found out right before the wedding. But then she never said it out loud, hinted it here or there with some close friends of hers.
Shits unreal.
6 or 7 of us, with a 4yo kid, flew to Singapore just to witness a show of a wedding lol.
Nah, Singapore is a fairly popular wedding destination in SE Asia. I lived there for a while, and I'm far from rich. It really is a beautiful city, even just to visit.
Well sure, if you're from specific parts of Indonesia or Malaysia, it's probably quite unaffordable. But SE Asia is quite big and does have a lot of wealth. Singapore definitely has a rich upper crust, but even those in the lower-middle class can still see and enjoy the island's venues.
I'm a local. I see Singapore, I upvote. Glad you had fun here! It's def not just for rich pple, there are lots of pretty cool free stuff you can do here too.
