definition of much older is related to being independent.
since the average male university graduate is 23, he wont become
independent until at least 5 years in the workplace. even then, he
cant afford his own place. ie. independence in the true sense of
it.
from the HDB point of view, only a single aged 35 and above can
own a HBD flat. below that, u need to be married.
so i would simplify the definition as 35 onwards.
@russiabear: Back to your previous comment once again. You're
saying that it isn't advisable for me to disclose my status right
at the start. But then, he wouldn't bring me home to see his
parents right at the start too, right? Sure, I can understand that
there is this..stigma..when you know that the guy or girl has been
divorced before. It kinda prevents you from getting to know him or
her better. That is why it is better to only disclose that part of
yourself until later. Hmm...what's your take on this then?
And most of you guys say that it wouldn't be a problem...would
you yourself then even consider a girl who has been divorced
before? I don't mean anything personally, just want to know how
people really think, if they encounter such a situation.
And @Kirin_Rider:
Firstly, you're totally out of point, no one is talking about white
men and no one is talking about love or sex here. Secondly, you're
having a big (racist) misconception about white men too.
@PedoBear: It's ok. Just my advise, basing on my knowledge of
Chinese women. They are definitely not simple girls, although it
doesn't mean that they are not nice. No doubt that many Chinese
girls I know here in Europe are intelligent, educated and they
probably earn more than me and have no intention of cheating people
around them, but they are nonetheless, just not simple. Singaporean
girls might seem "stuck up" but that's really just it. Beneath this
personality, most of them are actually rather simple people. And
it's always advisable to marry a partner of the same cultural
background.
