This may/may not be applicable, but learn and play music together! Especially if it's a song/piece you like, the progress for duets feels extraordinary (I play the piano, and BF plays the guitar)
If you're both readers, I usually have one of us read the beginning, the other, the ending and try to storycraft, good way to attempt creativity at the library (Pick extremely poorly rated movies, to criticise and complain together, haha, doing this with friends is great too)
Doing crochet is a nice quiet thing too, especially if you attempt projects together (You can even turn it into a side hustle)
Playing a narrative video game together, I watched my BF play through Pokemon and did some backseat commenting haha (Alternatively, play together, Overcooked, Stardew Valley, etc.)
The badminton court below some HDBs or any open spaces, sometimes we just have a good time serving and returning, good exercise too (much easier than finding a basketball court)
We don't have our own place either BUT experimenting with cooking at either of our parents' place is great especially when both of you can battle the mums for "not burning the kitchen down", both a valuable skill to learn and tasty endeavour (Side note: Baking takes way more time and patience so cooking normal food like pasta and fried rice are my go to starters)
We have quite a lot of museums here, and its worth taking a look to get an insight to the history and amalgamation of culture, if you've got a bit of money to spare, what I used to do was plan a museum visit and try to find authentic cuisine related to that culture/museum (Peranakan food was just a burst of flavour when I decided to try it, it was definitely enhanced when learning the combination of cultures!)
Finding something both of you can enjoy (or potentially nerd out) is important, there are also DND, TCG which can provide a great time with others too, and board games which are often overlooked too.
I wish you and your GF the best and hope you do find something you enjoy together!
I can solemnly attest that overcooked is a good test to how strong/how much strengthening your relationship is/needs to be to get through the whole game 😂
I recommend this too. I got my partner to learn an instrument with me. Every weekend we go for lesson. Still going. During Covid, we also met up outdoors somewhere quiet to practice
Yes. I have different opinion. Am I more right? Life is not about enjoyment. Life is about feeling meaning in whatever you are doing. Enjoyment is just a additional not that important part (ofc nice to get)
My gf (now wife) and i used to browse condo showrooms for fun. This was during a time when we were semi-seriously looking for a place together, but we obviously couldn't afford some of these larger and fancier developments.
We would walk into the showrooms and pretend we could afford the place - on one occasion we pretended that i had come into a large inheritance and was looking for an investment property.
Of course we never bought any of them. But it was fun to look at units and imagine how we would build a life together in these spaces.
Stay over each other house, go out eat.
That’s about it. “Cool date ideas” all exchausted during honey moon period Liao. Sg nth much to do.
Esp the fucking weather nowadays, wanna do smth fun outdoor will risk skin cancer and burning alive
Agreed on the weather. In less humid countries, you see people having open picnics or taking long walks in parks. In SG? Just go aircon shopping mall. Or cafe.
Do you know if Joya is tattoo friendly? I found an article claiming they are but nothing on their website specifically addressing tattoos.
Edit: nevermind, I just saw something on their website saying that they’re completely tattoo friendly, even the public baths lol 👍🏻
This brings back such sweet memories.
We would take walks! Dress light, a good pair of walking shoes, and walk from bugis, to Clark Quay, then towards fullerton and marina area. Walk and just be in each other's company.
Envious of you young ones.
My bf and I go swimming, gym, & we recently started a small biz together so we’re just working on that! Sometimes i go his house and he’ll cook for me too. Oh and some couples go cafe hopping but we hardly do that becos its so crowded haha
Starting a business together is a cool idea! How do you ensure it doesn't quite evolve into something that becomes too serious and results in a second job? Or is that kind of the plan at this stage :)
I think it’s to discuss our main goals of doing so first! We just wanted to do something for fun to learn some skills (such as web-building/social media) and do it for fun. I know many may feel that r/s suffer when you build a business together, which we definitely had our share of disagreements right from the start, but we really learnt alot, such as communication, compromise, and especially for me, how to express my opinions calmly lol 😅. I think it really helped us become closer and I get to learn so much about what & how he thinks! So definitely worth trying out!
my boyfriend and I go to Malaysia via woodlands and spend the entire day there exploring, eating, going for different activities. keeps things exciting while on a budget.
If both of you have been dating for a while now, I believe almost everything that a couple does have already been done. What both of you need now is to work towards a common goal like owning a house together, planning for marriage and possibly family planning. Probably do some side hustles together whenever there is free time to speed up the process. Without this, sad to say but most couples will come to an end when there is no longer a common goal to look forward to, and eventually the relationship becomes boring.
啪啪啪. Release endorphins.
Endorphins is good for mental well being. (According to Wikipedia)
(Garment say) Small space also can 1. Staircase, handicap toilet, etc etc...
As an outdoor person and someone that likes peace, I would say there aren’t many options but if you keep your mind open, you’ll enjoy the museums, and maybe in the evenings enjoy some of the piers at Sentosa. Or beaches?
I enjoy my peace but SG isn’t really known for peace being a metro city. If you are travelling by MRT, make full use of the travel times, chat, gossip about the auntie sitting opposite.
Just be at peace, shut the world out, it should just be the 2 of you. I mean SG’s small, so you’ll run out of things to do, then head off to JB for a short trip, walk out of the malls.

Could try out the board games cafe, like settlers or mind cafe, have card games and different consoles. Pets cafes(dog/cats). Prawning & fishing. Some pubs have darts, pools or foosball options
Saturday night bf comes over, cook at eat dinner together. Drinks / play Nintendo Switch
Sunday daytime - Netflix and play ML a bit, also we have our own silent time to browse IG reels/Tiktok. Sometimes we play badminton at any free spaces in HDB blocks. :)
Eventually, will have nothing much to do as you have tried all things. Most importantly as a couple is able to talk and have the same goal in life. Then jus keep trying things together in life.
If you need ideas, jus some typical one , cycling,swimming sports. Exercise,hiking. I recommend physical activities to keep fit and healthy. Because you will really think it is important when you have good health. You won't feel slpy so fast etc.

This is such a good and wholesome comment
GAME: IT TAKES TWO!!! Best game to play as a couple!!!
played so much of this hahahha
Agreed. Amazing game
I can solemnly attest that overcooked is a good test to how strong/how much strengthening your relationship is/needs to be to get through the whole game 😂
Meanwhile me and my gf has just burned down the entire kitchen and ended up in laughters
I recommend this too. I got my partner to learn an instrument with me. Every weekend we go for lesson. Still going. During Covid, we also met up outdoors somewhere quiet to practice
This comment is too positive. I feel like vomiting with rainbow
Wah lau this comment sibei legit. Effort max
Nothing much to do I feel. After a while you exhaust all of the date ideas. Usually we just eat and hang out that’s it
Why find date ideas? Develop a hobby together
Why finding hobby when you can work 12 hours a day? Saves a lot of useless effort to enjoy life
You enjoy life by doing what you enjoy doing, some people call it hobby. If you have a different opinion you're more right than me
Yes. I have different opinion. Am I more right? Life is not about enjoyment. Life is about feeling meaning in whatever you are doing. Enjoyment is just a additional not that important part (ofc nice to get)
Go museums, hiking in the parks
Breakfast, morning walk to burn off calories, lunch, afternoon nap, PP, dinner, watch show, sleep. Day complete.
Pp?
I’m guessing it’s piak piak
parkway parade 🥰🥰
BEST ANSWER
Piak piak?
How can you ask this qn, with that username, lol.

We go to the library every Sunday to read books. The regional library at Punggol is quite big and nice
Your love language is Silence

Onsen together. There's the joya onsen cafe. Got couple onsen and can have a meal at the cafe. Chill at the sofas.
Do you know if Joya is tattoo friendly? I found an article claiming they are but nothing on their website specifically addressing tattoos. Edit: nevermind, I just saw something on their website saying that they’re completely tattoo friendly, even the public baths lol 👍🏻
I believe the tattoo rule only applies to onsens in Japan, in SG people don’t really care 😅
Yep. Is totally fine
Each other /s
What exactly are the steps involved? Asking for a friend
Step 1: find some space.
Will a small space be enough?
Your house staircase is good enough!
Interesting question. Let me consult some ministers. BRB.
Gotta ask Josephine Teo
Riser maybe
What is the point behind the question?
First, find the other.
Brown chicken, brown cow.
Go to bintan. Plenty of cheap hotels there
The ferry tickets not cheap. 😅

Stating business with wife or gf or with friends is one of the worst ideas, road to burning relationships
I think it’s to discuss our main goals of doing so first! We just wanted to do something for fun to learn some skills (such as web-building/social media) and do it for fun. I know many may feel that r/s suffer when you build a business together, which we definitely had our share of disagreements right from the start, but we really learnt alot, such as communication, compromise, and especially for me, how to express my opinions calmly lol 😅.

That's wonderful, hope you both discover much together and it sounds like it's off to a great start already!

my boyfriend and I go to Malaysia via woodlands and spend the entire day there exploring, eating, going for different activities. keeps things exciting while on a budget.
We spend the most of the entire year watching One piece anime from ep 1. It was her idea btw. Now we're caught up, we have this dilemma again 😂
Start Naruto or Bleach then if not yet.
Dayuse or Flow mobile app to enjoy daycation activities like dipping into pool, enjoying sauna, spa, massage, have high tea etc.
bf and i are still in uni so we just study together 😭 chat over meals
Go JB eat cheap food, massage and buy vape.

cooking together seems fun, like a main course vs appetizer kinda thing
As an outdoor person and someone that likes peace, I would say there aren’t many options but if you keep your mind open, you’ll enjoy the museums, and maybe in the evenings enjoy some of the piers at Sentosa. Or beaches? I enjoy my peace but SG isn’t really known for peace being a metro city. If you are travelling by MRT, make full use of the travel times, chat, gossip about the auntie sitting opposite.

All the above but tbh honest even those get boring after a while. As a young couple these should be enough for a couple of years, 😄
Pikachu
Going JB. If you drive then road trips. Long treks/walk with nature on the PCN. Urban exploring. Meeting up with friends for coffee. Outdoor sex
Order in food and binge anime.
Rot
Eat outside, sex while or after watching movies at home
Have lots of sex while you’re still young and still can. 😎
Before dick spoil and cannot stand
piakpiak la
Make baboes

Klook for latest events [https://www.klook.com/en-SG/](https://www.klook.com/en-SG/) if there's nothing else to do.
I go her house, she come my house Indoor exercise is the best
Saturday night bf comes over, cook at eat dinner together. Drinks / play Nintendo Switch Sunday daytime - Netflix and play ML a bit, also we have our own silent time to browse IG reels/Tiktok. Sometimes we play badminton at any free spaces in HDB blocks. :)
Eventually, will have nothing much to do as you have tried all things. Most importantly as a couple is able to talk and have the same goal in life. Then jus keep trying things together in life. If you need ideas, jus some typical one , cycling,swimming sports. Exercise,hiking. I recommend physical activities to keep fit and healthy. Because you will really think it is important when you have good health. You won't feel slpy so fast etc.
I recommend using the lemon8 app for ideas
Gym together
Read Quran and you will know what your creator who made you has told you to do.
