They should interview the guy after the date as well. Maybe he also think they can at best be friends. Sometimes we need to take a good look at at ourselves before setting so many criteria
would be nice to have both perspective
I see what you did there. Spoken like a champ. These days feminism has invaded conventional media as well. Everything is from the girls POV.
She’s so nervous whenever she waits for WJ to respond, she’s already thinking of the next question 😂
It's great to have a list and hold on to the list! Being single is better than to be w someone who doesn't fit the criteria. Keep it up, Sue Ann! Just take the time to know more ppl. Hope you find the right guy :) enjoy your precious singlehood in the meantime!!
Knowing self worth actually helps a lot in dating life
The expectations....
I think having a long list of criteria can hold you back from meeting the right person.
U choose people, people also choose u.
Sometimes, it's necessary to reflect upon oneself in the mirror.
Why so Singaporean women like tall guys so much? Like I’m 160 and my husband is 174 he still taller than me when I wear heels that’s good enough. Why must be like 180 187 then satisfied ?
No point finding tall men but no substance and money hehe..
I have no idea either. I am 177-178 a girl once called me short when she is not even 150 herself.
@octovanfoo968 I am only a 165 male. Happily married with 2 kids. Wife is about 158 or 160 can't rem. Height does not matter. Money, stability and looks matters hahaha
@@jamesmadison3108 Height is the number one filter girls look for in dating apps. Its sexist, but its true and society supports it. As a 180+ man with 30+ bodycount, I can tell you this is the reality. For this reason I am seeking 165 + partners myself, so my kids will have a genetic headstart in life.
@sugarly69 yup I don't disagree. Dating apps have such filters thus women will out height as a requirement right away. I don't use dating apps and met my then gf in real life. Won her over with my own charisma and that's history. :)
Honestly I think she will have a much better chance in an Ang Mo country. Ang Mo like this kind of looks and ‘character’. Ang Mo also generally taller.
I feel so too. Her vibes are more suited for Caucasian
Ang mo got weird taste when it comes to the looks of Asian women lol
When I went to watch all the Western videos, a lot of them are thinking of finding a wife in Asian countries because their country women have too high standards. They call themselves the passport bros.
Is it me or when he mentioned ai generative, she switched topic? Idk how cut up this is but if I heard ai generative I want to know more like that's so interesting leh (as a guy ah, maybe girls might think differently)
But i find it a lil ironic, she wants the guy to be open-minded but when she found out a few traits of the guy she already turned off by it.
178-180 requirement in an Asian country lol, cringe
while the average male height is 167 in asia LOL.
now i know, after watching for 5 mins why she has a difficult time looking for a partner!!!! for sure la, well good luck to the guy anyways!
I can imagine when she become 40 year old. Will look like aunty, buibui. Like the typical aunty at ntuc shopping for groceries hehehehe
Hey Sue Ann, WJ seems nice. Don't lose hope! I think try to sit back and wait for him to ask you some questions, rather than sending all the questions his way. There are things like shoes that can make a guy seem taller, sometimes the perfect guy for you is just 10cm shorter. Because the 10cm taller guy wants women with other criteria too. All the very best! Dont give up and keep meeting people.
Am I the only one who don't care about height and ambition lol? I'm super nua, after a long day at work the last thing I want is an ambitious guy telling me to hustle more.
I don't really get the attraction to tall guys either. To me guys with liberal values, a curious mind, a shiny backbone and loves dogs are always way more attractive. WJ mentions Nietzsche, I'm more of a Camus girl myself, hopefully one day I too can find someone who is into philosophy to go on a date with 😆
Tall guys in sg are in low supply - please leave the tall ones for us tall girls (1.75m here, towering over most of my guy friends)
So go for the shorter ones lah. What's the problem? Scared he'll look like a midget next to you ah?
Yes leave the short girls for us short guys. Short guys really no market here in SG (162M here)
It’s actually a pretty good match. Moreover, they kinda lookalike. Especially with the Small eyes. 😁
asks for 178-180, gets 173. LOL
I think you need to learn and understand what is matching principle.
They look like twins.
Lolllllll 😂 indeed
There's an ample supply of tall, single men in northern China. Unfortunately for her they tend to be quite conservative. But hey everything is a trade off.
"eye opening experience" LJ. just say u disappointed la LMAO
i only can say everyone want a good deal and high expectation ..... but has no Self-reflection
Lol😂
In simple term, her standard is angmoh. Of course, matching with chinese surely failed lor. Anyway, must give her a thumbs up for braving herself in this show. Hope she found her loved one soon! Angmoh love someone like Sue-Ann, a typical asian look with angmoh character. Lol
How is she typical Asian look ?
Bruh this WJ is quite a catch.
LOL
Her height criteria is a reason for her being single. Don't know why some Singaporean women have an obsession with having tall partners?
I tried this company before , years back in KL .More like a scam . Cin cai match you with old uncle and weirdo . My ex-colleague had the same experience as well. Be careful
Maybe only old uncles and weirdos are 180cm tall😂
@@KaranKumar-di9fw 180cm was not I ask for 😅
Walan Wey! Like that cost $2000, siao Liao lah, got such people pay for this kind of simple job, kenna con already…. But good earning in this trade for the match making agency. No need license, no governor bounding, no contract agreement! Better than working in real estate. To get a life partner, just open your mouth ask on the street, go attend conferences, camping or mountain hiking tour, biking tour or backpack tour…u will need a lot of buddies. Gila!… pay $2000.
Swiping left !
It was $2k for 1 date??
hear her talk for 5 seconds and i already know why she is single
🤣
I paused the video at 2.47, and then I think it is enough to continue watching...🤣
Ai-yah...don't be shy..Just be brave to go out with any boys..soon u will find the best one..why let match making pair u..No standard lah..
lol
Bruh min height 178-180 and above?..
She has a bossy, talk-down judgmental approach and that may be her issue.
But she wants a tall guy, 1.80 possibly. That's one of her "deal breakers".
Loving the smol deak energy marks hippo
@@Shtackhauz ???
That's why she wants tall guy
So she can look up and talk like a little girl
I like sue ann, she speaks her mind and knows what she wants. I see a confident lady, confidence is the sexist thing about a lady! cheers.
Bro so down bad he mistakes obnoxiousness for confidence 😂💀
this@@KaranKumar-di9fw
@@KaranKumar-di9fw rejection can b hard so sorry nobody loved u enough my guy
@@Shtackhauz better to be single than to be delulu. I hope you find the most toxic girl or guy in existence and they make your life miserable 🤣
@@Shtackhauz actually, got one woman who I had feelings for. It's too bad things didn't work out between us. Say hello to your mom for me, yeah? Really miss her...
There is nothing wrong with the girl or the guy. But just that they are not for each other.
Not sure is it how this video was made. The guy comes across as geeky, meek and pretty introverted. While Sue-Ann is pretty assertive.
I am not a person to judge either of the couple, but I would say Sue -Ann will prefer a person who takes more of the leadership role in the relationship even though I’m not saying she be the submissive one.
WJ won’t be the one for her.
There is also nothing wrong with WJ, nothing wrong with being geeky or meek or introverted, but when it comes to dating and relationship, pls learn how to juggle the game and hold the reins. Girls are usually more impressed with guys who take the initiative and show the guy/male side in them.
Wow. The commenters here are harsh. What's with trashing her looks? She's not as bad as some of you make her out to be. Perhaps Singaporean men just can't handle an outspoken, confident lady.
Singaporean men can't handle toxic women with delusional standards. Keep defending your fellow toxic woman. You go girl✊🏼
@@KaranKumar-di9fw daddyyy behave stop scaring the nice lady
haha that's a good trolling
Already said she is better for ang mog lol its not singapore men cannot handle, Singapore men don't like lol
They got couple face !
The amount of people commenting without knowing all these were staged to promote the dating company 😂
After the interview, company goes …. bust … now who is the scammer? 😂😂😂😂😂
There is a saying in chinese...
“自己撒泡尿，照照自己。”
No comment
oof 8:28
Prive got nice food??
As long you pay for your own dates; not tax payers money🙄.
She looked like a person who uses tinder lol
She's going to be alone forever, unless she does a complete 180° on her attitude and expectations.
She already is...
lets face it, we all know he got friendzoned the moment she saw him.
Omg! She expects a Brad Pitt for her standards? Seriously?! There is a reason why she is single while her friends are married.
Look into the mirror first
elegant butterfly
Nahh
Height? What as about King Kong or Godzilla 🦒🐘🦣😂??
It’s a no from me dawg (randy jackson voice)
Singapore media like to showcase early 40s aunties dating err.
probably end up with angmoh, no face, but wants this want that, angmoh
Bossy woman will hv problem. For her look, She is asking for too much. The guy they introduced to her do match in look.
Well, 'where have all the good men gone' is a common trope but... WJ was a good man. Driven, intellectually curious, takes care of his body. I think women should stop bemoaning the shortage of good men because despite good men actually existing, women seem to treat them like shit.
"takes care of his body" u sure?
I am sure its not due to your political affiliation? 🤭🤭🤭🤣🤣🤣🏳️🏳️🏳️
I only want money. Got money, got my honey.
Clearly your problem is your expectations.
Omg
