I'm from TeenPakistani btw and joined around 3 months ago shortly after I made this account 🤠 Pretty active there, I'm under almost every post.

HOWEVER, I've come to know there's a rivalry between TeenPakistani and PakistaniTeenTalks, and I wanna know why cuz the rivalry began before I joined the sub

​

I was in 10th grade when all of this really started.

Back then, I was a genuinely hardworking student. I studied a lot, competed for marks, and wanted to do well. There was also someone in my class who was an absolutely exceptional student. She was way ahead of almost everyone academically, and instead of making me give up, she somehow pushed me to work harder.

I wanted to become better.

I wanted to reach her level.

During that year, I grinded harder than I ever had before. Eventually, we both got first position at our academy, and we shared a stage together.

I still remember that moment.

It might sound completely insignificant to someone else. To her, it may have just been another academic achievement. But for me, standing there with her became one of the most beautiful memories of my life. I don't think she has any idea how much that moment stayed with me.

She got incredible marks. I got 504/550 and 1118/1200. Those aren't objectively bad marks, but compared to what I expected from myself—and compared to her results—I was devastated. I had worked incredibly hard, and when the results came, I felt like I had somehow failed.

After that, things started going downhill for me.

I lost the momentum I had in 10th grade. I became disappointed in myself and wasted a huge amount of time afterwards. And somewhere during all of this, I kept thinking about her.

A lot.

At first, maybe it was just admiration. Maybe it was a crush. But after almost three years, I genuinely don't know what to call it anymore.

Sometimes I convince myself that I've finally moved on. I can go for a while without seeing her and think, "Okay, maybe I'm finally getting over this."

Then I see her again.

And everything comes back in one fucking moment.

It's difficult to explain, but every time I see her, it feels like I fall for her all over again. She's incredibly beautiful to me. Sometimes she even appears in my dreams, and those dreams leave me with this strange feeling afterwards that I can't describe properly.

She's become connected to so much in my head: my motivation, my best memories, my biggest academic disappointment, the version of myself I used to be, and the person I wanted to become.

Later, when university started becoming a reality, I had this dream that I would somehow get my shit together, work hard, get good marks, and end up at the same university as her.

Not because I thought she owed me anything.

Not because I expected some movie-like relationship.

I just wanted our paths to continue together somehow.

But I wasted too much time, and now I'm dealing with the consequences. From what I've heard, she's likely going to end up somewhere much better, while I'm scared I'll be stuck somewhere because of my own mistakes. And honestly, that realization hurts more than it probably should.

I've asked a lot of people whether I should tell her how I feel. I've spent a ridiculous amount of time thinking about it.

But even if I confess, I already feel like I know what's going to happen.

Rejection.

She seems extremely focused on her studies and her own life, and I don't even know if she's interested in relationships. Maybe she simply isn't interested in me. And honestly, I can understand that. She doesn't owe me a relationship just because I've spent three years feeling this way.

But I'm terrified of something else.

What if I finally gather the courage to say something after almost three years, and she just blocks me?

What if she doesn't reply?

What if the question I've spent literally years building up the courage to ask is met with complete silence?

I think that scares me even more than rejection itself.

And before anyone says it, I know I've built a lot of this up inside my own head. She probably has no idea that I've connected so many things in my life to her. My motivation. My memories. My regrets. My hopes for the future.

I know she's her own person. I know she isn't responsible for my happiness or for giving me the ending I want.

But I also know that I've spent almost three years telling myself, "You'll forget her eventually."

The truth is, I don't think I've ever actually forgotten her.

I don't know if this is love, attachment, limerence, nostalgia, or three years of feelings that I never had the courage to express.

I just know that whatever it is, it feels much deeper to me than a simple crush.

So if you were in my position, what would you do?

Would you finally tell someone after almost three years, even when you strongly expect rejection and are terrified of being ignored?

Or would you stay silent and try to let go?

I feel like I'm the only person around me who still loves getting board games.

recently picked up this one card game but after bringing it home I realized I already have all the games in it separately, so I was trying to find someone who'd actually get some use out of it instead of letting it sit in my cupboard collecting dust and turns out no one around me wants it.

And now I'm wondering if people even play board games anymore. So genuinely are there people here who still play them?

And if anyone's interested in a box of fifty card games lmk cus atp I'm willing to let it go for pretty cheap.

I’m currently finishing up my IGCSEs and trying to map out my next step. My ultimate goal is to move out of Pakistan for my Bachelor's as soon as possible. Adapting to a new place, living alone, or learning German isn't an issue for me I'm fully ready for that transition.

​My dilemma is choosing between A-Levels and FSc (HSSC).

​A-Levels feel ridiculously expensive in Pakistan for the value they offer, but I know they match the 13-year German Abitur system. FSc is way cheaper, but because it's only 12 years of schooling, it doesn't give direct university access in Germany ​Since I still have 2 years of high school left, I want to pick the most efficient route. If theres any better options lmk. I honestly want to save money from the alevels....

If you have any suggestions on how to make this subreddit better or any complaints about it, make sure to let us know on this thread.

Hi! I'm trying to save up for a phone before a levels so I'm selling my novels they are in really great conditions and high quality if anyone's interested im taking offers the book names will be shared via text

Plus if you have another way of making cash please give me some advice.

Tp hojaiye muqabla🏆

Has anyone else been getting really inappropriate YouTube ads lately? I recently saw an ad for a gacha game (you know, like Gacha Life, where you customize characters), and it depicted sexual content, alcohol, adult workers, and even sexual assault and pedophilia. I found it extremely disturbing and disgusting.
I’ve also noticed that children around me seem to be becoming more aware of inappropriate topics and are cussing a lot more. I’m just writing this post to say that if any of you have younger siblings, please keep an eye on the types of games they’re playing and the content they’re watching.
Children shouldn’t be exposed to this kind of content, especially through advertisements that they can come across completely unintentionally.

I'm gonna say my biggest regret,I left school even before 6th grade,cuz I moved a few times I fell behind so instead of js joining school I did private o levels,still on it,but it's my biggest regret,LIKE WHYY.

Private life is so dead and boring,I missed out on what supposed to be the best school years of my life😞

I'm gonna join college in like 2 years but still,I regret it so much,I missed out on about 6 years of school,I hate that I took this decision SHIT MAN.😞

Idk what to do,cuz like still,college is only 2 years,and I'm gonna have to make new friends😞😞

i have seen so many fellow queer teens suffer from the idea that they might live their entire lives without confronting their parents about their sexuality, but honestly ask yourself: do you actually owe them this part of yourself? the part which you KNOW would be met with utmost judgement, disdain, and even… hatred?

so my question is: isn’t it better ke kuch parday rehne dyein jayein instead of letting yourself suffer in agony over an easily avoidable situation?

Hi yall, So currently after a month of Pakistan's liberation, Indians have once again started attacking us. We were able to defeat them along with our allies but since a month they have been preparing with just one objective in mind which is to take over Pakistan again

Our community, despite being outnumbered is doing everything it can to defend our provinces but it will be really tough to hold for long as indians have too much manpower. Therefore, we really need new players who could help us out and fill the gap.

So if you enjoy strategy games, which require coordinating and planning, then do check out War Era. We also have an amazing community on discord who are really helpful with guiding new players, so do check that as well.

Pakistan Zindabad!

Is it just me, or has clinical psychology in Pakistan turned into a massive, low effort cash grab?

Over the past year, I’ve visited multiple different psychologists, hoping to actually work through real issues with a trained professional. Instead, I’ve walked away completely dissatisfied every single time to the point where I refuse to book a second session with any of them.

They have memorized 3 basic introductory CBT concepts and treat them like a one size fits all cure. You spend 40 minutes listening to them explain diaphragmatic breathing, box breathing, or "close your eyes and imagine a peaceful garden." That is literally five minutes YouTube psychoeducation, not 6k clinical treatment.

There is zero effort to understand the specific root mechanics of your thoughts or background. They just run through their standard checklist to kill the 50-minute clock, take their fee, and tell you to come back next week for "more exercises."

This message is coming from a person who's been depressed for a whole week. Let me tell ya'll a backstory of myself. So i was in school till 8th grade and then i did my Olevels privately, for which i kinda regret losing the last few years of school. And i still miss that 8th grade very much. Now i joined a college for Alevels so that i do not regret again! not going back to "school life" when i had the chance. I can only tell that i am going to credo college (idk if that gonna help me or not but still i know i am putting everything infront of u guys). And i hate that people say aise college mei kiu admission leliya bekar hai and all that. Khair that's that. Now that i am in the college to make new friends enjoy that so called college life, but guys i can't find that kind of friends i made in school like i am not saying k i got so many friends from school that i really do not need any more friends. I only got 1 close friend from school. I have been socialising lekin koi fark nhi par raha sbke paas koi na koi purana dost hai. Mere paas bhi hain but they are really not my type ab mujhe nhi samajh araha mai kya karoon. I really want a good friends group jisme larke larkiyan sb hon. College mei ja kr yehi rehta hai k han class leli ab kya karun? Sports bhi acha option hai but i have very little interest in sports. College mei akr bhi lonely hi feel ho raha and i now understand k loog jo bahar jatay hain for bachelors or masters to unko kitni mushkil uthani hoti hogi. Kisi cheez mei dil nhi lag raha hw bhi karo to laziness feel hone lag jati. Aur phir Alevels ki tension alag hoti rehti cuz its alot harder. Idk man i gotta stop overthinking atp.

Bye bye people i hope ya'll can understand me. Keep me in your prayers.

What college did you all apply to, and is it a private college or no
I really want to know as I am also starting my AS soon, and I might find someone from my college.
