SINGAPORE — “Oh wow, she’s hot,” read a stranger’s text on the phone of Nora’s boyfriend. She saw his response: “Yeah, do you want? I can share with you.” When Nora (not her real name) discovered in 2024 that her partner had been trading intimate photos of her with another man, she was blindsided. “I never suspected it,” says the university graduate in her 20s. “It kind of knocked the wind out of me, and I just went into shock.” She deleted all the photos she could find on his phone, but this betrayal marked the end of their fraught year-long relationship. To this day, the discovery still haunts her. “That was what I found, but I don’t know if he had sent more things or if he had shared it with other people. I don’t know the full extent of it,” she tells The Straits Times on condition of anonymity. Nora sought counselling, but kept it a secret from her family. She considered reporting the incident to the authorities, but ultimately held back.
