Are Singaporeans generally uncomfortable to do things alone?

I don’t have anything to back my findings aside from mere observations and experience, but it feels like doing things alone for some Singaporeans feels like a massive struggle.

I know and experience the whole ‘secondary school or friends clique must always do things together’ but when the time comes where nobody is free, and you gotta do it alone, it can be a fight or flight response because you probably never done it. (Not me per se, but I’ve seen it from other friends or groups)

Take traveling, dining out, going to a concert alone for example. Hell, watching movies too. But in other countries, people do whatever tf they want. If you go to festivals and concerts overseas, as a single person, you’ll find that a lot of people go to these events on their own. No friends, family, nothing. They enjoy it anyhow.

Partially I think some of these Singaporeans are scared of being judged by others for doing things alone. Newsflash, nobody really cares. Just do it anyway.

I think being able to enjoy things on your own is a sign of independence and maturity. Your friends won’t always be free, but you can still do your own activity. Same for people in relationships.

Is it something ingrained to Singaporeans as a groupthink mentality?
