Singapore dad caught between son and girlfriend after she objects to school concert attended by ex-wife

A Singaporean father is facing a dilemma after coming under fire from his girlfriend for attending his son's year-end school concert. The father posted on an online forum, expressing his desire to attend the event but fearing it might cause tension with his partner due to her discomfort with his ex-wife's presence. He explained that he had recently divorced and was starting a new relationship, but things were already becoming complicated.

The girlfriend's behavior, such as going through his phone, deleting or blocking people in his contacts, and becoming upset when he spends time with his children, has left the father questioning the nature of their relationship. Some Redditors responded to the post by labeling the girlfriend's behavior as "insecure" and a "red flag," suggesting that she should have understood the implications of dating a divorced father.

Others advised him to end the relationship, warning that the longer he stayed, the worse both of them would feel.
