You’re a Pain, but Let’s Get Married AnywaySingaporean couples may not be happy with their partners but they will still marry them anyway, a global survey on relationships shows. The poll of 716 couples who planned to wed showed that 39 percent were unhappy in their relationships, the highest proportion of nine societies surveyed by a US-based marriage and family therapy organisation. The poll is the latest unflattering survey of ardour in a wealthy population that chases what is known in local parlance as the Five C's: career, condominium, club, credit cards and cars.
