Idc if she has a point or not, but exposing ur loved one to the whole world and saying that he is of lower caliber (which i interpret it as “inferior”) is just plain rude bruh. What i dont understand is, she talks about how mindset, attitude and character are the most impt to her, yet she keeps yapping about her bf’s educational level and MONEY.

@@dumblechel21 i get you.. when you present unfavorable traits of your partner to the world without consenting him/her or for the sake of making a content for social media indicate that she priorities other things over the welfare of her bf. From relationship POV, it is very disrespectful. I may not be very supportive of what she do but if you go back to the part to see her mum's explanation for objecting their relationship.

Why would you talk about your partner like this to the whole internet? Her man sounds like a great guy who deserves better than her. He should know that he doesn't have to be with someone who called him "lesser caliber". That's just plain rude and demeaning. From the guy's own video, he seems oblivious himself. But I hope he can realise one day. As for the girl, the fact that it took her this experience of "dating downward" to know that people of "lesser earning power/no degree" can be this good, says a lot more about her as a person. How about just being a decent human being? Gross all around.

This toxic mentality of dating up or down has existed many years ago. Being in a healthy relationship means having empathy and empowering each other, not putting each other down. Unfortunately some have relationships for all the wrong reasons and treat it as some power dynamic, increased social standing, FOMO, etc. This is precisely the reason why divorce rates are on an increasing trend. Remember, learn how to identify red flags and nip it in the bud before it festers and becomes a bigger headache down the road.

The moment he hits a hard spot that’s going to be messed up man. The gf only posts this now because the bf caught up. She just took the nearest boat until she sees a bigger boat. And “she is so gorgeous” just makes me feel like he is paying for the relationship. Poor dude is going to be played like a fiddle just because he is not of “noble blood”. On the small chance the GF is trying to defend her man in her social circle and say how good he is. This really isn’t the best way to write or say it. Could have started off with saying all the non materialistic traits, how they both went through good and bad times, and the other stuff she mentioned deeper into the posts. Going straight for “dating downwards” in the topic is like putting a sign on the ground to say there is no buried treasure there.

If he did not double his income and match her pay, would she still have posted about her relationship? It sounds kinda selfish and one-sided to let him pay for everything just because now he is earning the same as her. Relationship is a 2-way street and it is about give and take. Anyway, people can be dating doctors and lawyers and still be in a happy and fulfilling relationship. Just because anecdotally she dated downwards and she's happy doesn't mean that people who are dating upwards are unhappy. Actually they have very similar vibes - they are of the same caliber la! Maybe she's just hoping to go viral with a controversial post - I mean look at the deliberate way they posed for the picture, especially the guy's facial expression and I guess she has succeeded - so the joke's on us 😅

When you take on the new journey of marriage, this also includes the financial aspect too. Marriage literally brings the statement " what's mine is yours and what's mine is yours " to life.

@@etherealdreamer1930 I'm married, so I know what marriage entails. Naive is when you believe everything will work out in time - of course it doesn't. That's why all relationships -whether married or not- is called work. You work in your marriage, you hash out everything including money, your needs and wants, everything before you begin a commitment. Everyone seems to forget that it takes hard work to make a marriage. It's not just financial aspects, it's also emotional - actually I would say it is MOSTLY emotional. You have to be emotionally strong to carry on with the troubles you have within the marriage, and also be emotionally stronger to commit. It's not just logistics. Yes, their point is valid, but I entirely disagree with the 90% income problem. If it is so, then everyone shouldn't be "dating down" to be happier. And this woman is advocating a very very silly mindset.

I get what she mean. But saying you are dating downwards is such a toxic way of saying things. You can just say "despite how much he earns, I love his personality then all is good". Saying you are dating downwards is like trying to manipulate the guy emotionally. I know she is not doing it on purpose. But I feel like it is kind of a form of emotional manipulation to make the guy feel inferior and in a way telling him that he can't get a woman better than you. And saying all this is really a bad advice for woman, woman should not date down because it is easier, this will make them become resentful if they are expecting some form of lifestyle but the BF cannot provide it, and this will become very toxic. They should date whoever they want, and don't make this like some sort of game to minmax relationship. I wonder if the guy's income didn't grow like how it did, will the author still be with him.

I think what she's trying to say is that dedication/ sincerity is more important than income. Which is actually positive, because so frequently when you hear people talk about their ideal partners they list off superficial traits (e.g. looks, height, wealth, status). Not that I really blame people for being superficial about money, as Singapore's such an expensive city to live in, but that's another topic. Commentors are pretty sensitive, she's isn't dissing him, she's simply stating that he used to make less than her; an insult would be saying if people of lower income are gross/ insert other negative adjectives.

There is some nuance in dating downwards for women, because what SG women want is to some degree is an attractive simp, because if he is like an attractive chad that has everything going for him Job, Car, Wealthy Family, he could have other physical traits Lean, Tall, Fair Complexion, then he may have too much power in the relationship as more SG women desire that hence he could bail out anytime, lets face it she may not be the prettiest one but there is also growing competition withing her social circle to find someone better for her to climb the social-ladder of her friend group, every SG woman wants to also have a trophy boyfriend to show her friends "this is my boyfriend, See i am happy, and you should be for me" If he didnt check all the boxes then hes less likely to be desired by other women so he is more likely to stay in the relationship or at least work things out. Not all SG women will end up with someone that they see in a K-Drama film, and i think women shld understand that early. Like she as mentioned in the video she has experience dating someone of higher status than her, most women in SG after they date upwards (Hypergamy) they dont wanna go back down, as they think relationships will get better and the guy MUST be better, to SG women every guy is like a Samsung or iPhone u only upgrade your phone never downgrade. Just remember every guy and woman is unique qualities and traits cannot be replicable between previous man or woman. A man may have these traits A, B and C, and if a woman decides to break up with him, she would expect the new guy to now have traits A,B,C and probably D and E because she wants an upgrade otherwise she may feel she is losing out, the paradox of choice lives with those in power when you are exposed to more choices in a dating app u always want to know if u have felt u made the right choice hence waiting to see every option. Its no surprise that marriage and birth rates are on the decline, more women are now into management fields, taking up degrees to earn more money and compete with men in more ways than one, hence they may feel they have a say in a relationship, our mothers/grandmothers were not as educated as our fathers as they may be more encourage to be home-makers or at least take up jobs that didnt require a demand for the type of education certificates presented. I still live by the truth that SG woman can always replace an SG man, because theres always a simp waiting to catch her when she falls, for the man its different you have to find a way to survive

The mistakes she made are her wording "dating downwards", and revealing her/her bf identity.

It is easy to bring others up if you yourself are high and powerful enough. So if you value overall compatibility in all areas rather than just status compatibility alone you can actually give yourself a wider dating pool to explore. After all Singapore is very small and too many people are too overly meritocratic and self serving if not outright jerks to begin with. Your life partner is to be with you for a lifetime. You might as well search more carefully and wisely for the right one instead.

Hi Yeolo, I started to follow you because of your thoughts of the video about the girl that looks down on guy that bring her to lau pa sat and make that vomit sound. I agree with your thoughts. But this video i got a different opinion. From this video i learn that i am a downward guy. I am 40 years old now and drawing fresh graduates pay. It is very hard for downward guy like me to find a date here in singapore. I feel that she is speaking up for people like me and i think they are a happy couple. Just leave them alone and give them their blessings.

It's difficult for a Malaysian Chinese like me to date a Malaysian Chinese girl since I only pass Spm. I think for moment now Malaysian Chinese girls prefer either Singaporean, Korean or Japanese men. It's because most capable ones have migrate to Singapore.

when u start with the terms - dating with the sport, it's already defeats the original intent of dating which is to find the best partner for the life ahead. so whether u date up , down or sideways doesn't really matter coz you already got the fundamental intent wrong

She makes it sound like she’s unique about dating “down”. Like I don’t look for a partner based on their education and income, if we get along and are lifestyle is compatible then its fine. It’s not something I think most people think about. I don’t expect to be relying on a guy. We rely on each other

10:24 Yeah, and when men are conditioned to sideline intimacy, be the only breadwinner as ‘high status’ man, regardless of women as conquests and casually drop the word ‘ugly’, is that not toxic? Toxicity should be called out across the board and not just towards an individual.

Aaaand in conclusion dating sideways or opting out of the dating scene is the best lolol. I think you can only get her pov if you’re a girl raised in a more traditional setting like she did (not saying what she wrote there was 100% morally acceptable lol but to each their own), so if you’re a guy you’d probably be very pissed/offended bc taking it personally 😂 (not that it’s not understandable too)

i am not dating, the competition is pretty tight right now and its quite stressful. There are alot of handsome men and available attractive women that want these handsome men. I am just working and saving money so that i can survive in the long run. and women and men shldnt publicly say they are "dating down" , its very rude, but i guess when u have too many options u can say anything these days

my advise if your dating up guys just own the fact your not rich and dont be a try hard fake rich. Sure alot on the girls wont like you for that but some will which is better then the 0 girls that like you once they find out your faking it. Plus not wasteing money faking rich will help you get rich.

I don't see anything wrong with her original post about "dating downwards" except for the fact that she is openly blunt and tactless online, publicly. Personally I think that a lot of asians discuss about our/others partners income when it comes to compatibility, albeit behind closed doors / private setting. She's probably a gen-z so yeah, these are the times we are in now. Nothing to hide.
