Honeytrap. Should I do it?

Morning Ash. It's probably near lunch time for you, so have a good lunch break later :)

I had an early niight yesterday after dinner. Great dinner, though after dinner conversation left me bewildered, which is the subject of another thread that I will post later.

i woke up early today. Wanted to go for a quick run but didn't. My spirit is willing but my flesh is really weak. So I thought I will reply to you, go for a shower and spend more time dressing up today. :)

On dialects, please don't get me wrong, I am not against usage of dialects. I do break into cantonese with my HK colleagues, hokkien with Taiwanese friends and mandarin with my PRC friends too.

You are absolutely correct that the Singaporean man has the "foulest" of all mouth, especially when they lose an argument, whether on or off line. The evidence are plentiful here and I need not say more.

I once discussed with a close male friend of mine why is this so. He concluded that it is SAF. At 18, they went NS and it is there where all the organ-related swear words propagate unwittingly. He said that even if one is not a "swearer", the amount of usage of such swear language will inevitably influence those who do not swear.

Have a great day ahead, Ash. I need to have a shower now, decide what I need to wear today and touch up my face.

:)

Your close male friend is lucky. I picked it when I'm in primary school. Its later on in life that I control the usage of the language a lot better. I blame the PAP for destroying our cultural heritage. Having no access to proper usage and pronunciations of the dialects.

Ash, I do agree to a certain extent. But I can't see the need for so many dialects. I look at my Chinese colleagues, at least now they are unified under one language, Mandarin. I look at my Indian colleagues, they still break into their own subregional dialects. They was once an indian was speaking, I went up close and whisphered into the ear of the indian next to me and ask what is the former saying. He said he had no bloodly idea.

Well, I am no historical lingo evolution expert. To me, what is now is now and I look forward. :)
 
very simple la ...

wen u c him, juz say wat tiau ...

R2D2, Long and that C3PO. All you 3 Stooges can form a comedian group here :)

I do understand basic dialects. That is Cantonese, not Hainanese. :mad:

Its our cultural heritage. Speak Cantonese to a HK person, and you become instant friends. Speak Hokkien to a taiwanese person and he'll trust you more. There are advantages understanding them and knowing the lingo, language they use.

Don't know about Hainanese, but Hakka, tiau and tiew have the same meaning but "reversed". Tiew lupsup in hakka, tiau lup sup in canton. Tiau lei mah gor chi pek in hakka, Tiew lei lou mou hai in canton.
 
Yours struck a bell with me on geopolitical front. Tried (and thrusted) means for bigger stakes over your baiting :p.

As for my moniker, it's got to do with combo of bestest and worst. A single either choice is less than complete :D

Hi Yin. You are getting as "cryptic" as my elder brother Eat. I must admit I do not understand what you are getting at. Perhaps it is some "lingo" that you guys have evolved over the years.
 
Hi Claire,
I chanced upon this thread and the topic looks interesting.
My take is no.

What if the Honey is the exact type that your guy likes, or if the Honey actually fell for your guy, or if the Honey is way too skillful at seduction? It won't be fair to the guy.
Or the opposite, the sophisticated Honey is simply not his type. So you think he is OK, but actually he is lusting for the kopi-shop girl.

He may flirt with this professional Honey but won't so called "cross the line".
But to some girlfriends, even chit chat with other girls is "crossing the line".
So what's your "line"?
You may THINK objectively that certain stages is the "line", but, subjectively?

While guys may stray, or even leave, I feel it's not right to push the option to his face.

My two cents!

Good morning Serrol.

Thanks for your advice. I have dropped the idea as I felt the same as you.

Ash's idea of full and frank disclosure method which he has expounded is a better idea.

Thanks once again and have a great Thursday. Another 2 more days to weekend and I am off for the rest of the year. :)

Happy birthday if I don't see you. I hope your guy gets you something nice as well.

Good morning Ash (or afternoon). You are quite smart in "extracting" my personal info. Well, it's only my birthday. i am fine. A year older though I don't feel that I am a year wiser :(

Thanks for your wishes. :)

Where are you heading? Going away for year end holidays? Do pamper your wife and kids. Nothing beats a happy family.

For me, I am off to Bangkok. I am off for the rest of the year. :)

We finally decided Bangkok to spend out first year end hols together as it is probably the nearest for a decent bonding for us. I think he book Sheraton Sukhumvit, though I would have preferred a boutique hotel, which has more warmth and character.

Anyway, you have a great day ahead :)
 
I am troubled because my best friend, Sue (I call her "Sue", purely for confidential reasons) spotted him with a woman having lunch at Wah Lok, Carlton Hotel this afternoon.


Do you want the relationship to continue? Then ignore the matter. It is okay to have a nagging suspicion in your mind.

Over time, he will reveal more of his personality and character to you, and then you can make a more informed judgment whether he is a person who can be trusted - not just in relationships, but in all aspects of life. If he reveals a part of himself that you find untrustworthy or irresponsible, then it won't matter whether or not he cheated. You already know what you have to do.

On the other hand, if he proves himself trustworthy and responsible, then you know there is no need to honeypot him at all.

Trust has to be earned, but it takes time to earn it. Give it time first, and then decide.
