Before I even start on the joke, must put disclaimer first: This is a conversation entirely between me and my girlfriend. And as we are both in the finance industry, you can say that we are too into it to link it to our relationships. Ha. So if you don't understand, don't call me and asked me siao arh. =p
Anyway, here goes:
Last night HS and I were on the phone and we were just relating to each other our bf problems. And then we came up with 2 plans: Plan A and Plan B.
Introduction of Plan A (Absence makes the heart grow fonder)
This plan basically means that when a couple is in a relationship, they can claim under Plan A, and take a cool down period for a stipulated time agreed between the two. Under this plan, the benefits would include some time off for each other, and with that, the two would probably cooled down and be in a better frame of mind to decide on the next course of action for their relationship. At the same time, it's a period where both parties are not allowed to contact each, this would determine whether either parties are still missing the other and of course, aid in their decision on the next course of action.
However, if after the cool down period, both parties cannot come to a consensus or both realized that they do not need each other as much as they thought they would, then the second claim would then be allowed ----> Break Up.
Introduction of Plan B (Break-Up)
Under this plan, as long as one party initiates to claim under the plan, there is no turning back. Once the claim is requested, there would only be a one time payout ----> Break Up. After which the plan would be terminated.
Comparison between the 2 Plans:
Well, according to a survey, when girls initiate Plan A, their partners would think that it equates to Plan B for sure. This is a myth... with Plan A, there's a higher chance that the girl may feel that she still want to continue the relationship instead of opting for Break-Up which is usually proposed in an unsound state of mind, which would therefore be detrimental to both parties.
Haha, if by now you are not laughing, I really don't think you should read on, just skip this post seriously. Hahaha.
Anyway, guess what would be the premiums in these 2 plans? Haha, of course, the years of love put into the relationship. =p
And the guaranteed returns? Of course it would be the years of love you get from the other party lar. As for non-guaranteed returns, wells, this would equate to a happily after marriage.
Hahahaha... Ok, end of joke. =x
