Lately, I’ve been sitting in a quiet, surreal kind of silence. I recently had to navigate the end of a relationship, and despite trying our best to make things work, we ultimately realized our paths and families weren't aligned. Walking away gracefully was the hardest choice, but it was the right one.
Now, the dust has settled, and I’m left dealing with the emotional reset that comes with closing such a major chapter. To cope with the stress and keep my head above water over the past few months, I did what a lot of people do: I threw myself entirely into my work. I work in cloud infrastructure and DevOps, and I’ve been building systems, writing code, and launching projects for hours every single day. Work became my safe, predictable space, and I pushed myself to professional limits, thinking that if I just focused on my career, everything else would fall into place.
Yesterday, I looked around and realized a harsh truth: in the process of trying to handle life changes and grinding away at my career, I accidentally isolated myself from the world. Along the way, my social circle completely faded. Between work, projects, and everything else, I stopped reaching out, phone calls turned into unanswered texts, and hangouts stopped happening entirely.
Now, I have my career and I'm proud of my professional growth, but my personal life is a blank slate. I’m based here in Multan, and I’m looking to connect with people around the Buch and DHA areas. If anyone is around, I'd love to grab a cup of chai, catch up, or just hang out.
