A recent survey by global market research company Ipsos revealed that 82 per cent of Singaporeans are happy with their partners or spouses, an indication that locals value strong relationships.

Compared to other Asia Pacific countries such as India 76 per cent , China and Thailand both 75 per cent , Singapore's satisfaction with romance and intimacy lags behind.
This means there's room for improvement in the intimacy department, even among happy Singaporean couples. While the survey offers a glimpse into the love lives of Singaporeans, relationships extend beyond just romantic entanglements.
Singaporeans score high on satisfaction with other aspects of their lives too. The survey found that three-quarters or 74 per cent of Singaporeans consider themselves happy, and 70 per cent feel appreciated.
