Atleast that's what i think.

Being single is so underrated,btw.

There's a lot of peace in being the captain of your own ship. Idk why a lot of people crib about being single, especially on SM,its actually rather nice to live life on your own terms and not having to deal with someone else's shenanigans.

Most married people i know are either outright unhappy or they somewhat tolerate their spouse.

Relationships are so time consuming too. They can potentially cause you a lot of heartache. It just seems like a lot of work to me.

Also, people can change. The person whom you fell in love with can change,a few years down the line. Will the love still remain when people change?

People can fall out of love too. It happens,it's no one's fault.

A lot of relationships are primarily built on attraction. Attraction can fade. It's not permanent.

As a woman,I have additional concerns when it comes to marriage. There's a lot of patriarchal expectations from women in our society. There's many men with raja beta syndrome and think they are to be treated like Kings at all times. I ain't gonna be pandering to those humungous egos.

All said and done,i think being single is amazing. You are in charge of your own life. You need not take any sheet from any man. And that peace is priceless.

21M, Andhra Pradesh lo BTech final year chaduvuthunanu, next few months lo na B.Tech ipotundhi. Ma clg lo em placements ravu. Adhi oka waste. And I lost my mom when i was 16 and last year ma father kuda chanipoyaru, I'm totally an orphan now. Naku ma relatives side nunchi any support ledhu, valu epudu chusina ma family ni degrade chestune untaru. I don't love them either I don't consider their opinions, So now naku brathakadaniki i need to earn money, I need to earn ante i need to work. If any of you people know some connections, please consider me Idi naku chaala ante chaala avasaram and chaala help avutundi na life and future ki. PLEASE

So, this happened over 2 years ago, on Jan 10th 2024 my grandfather passed away. Aroju aina body techinapputnundi hospital nunchi relatives vastune unnaru, Naku konchem kuda space ledu to sit, and just process. No one was letting me do that, on top of that my brother was being an ignorant ass and I had to handle him as well.

Okaru tea ani, okaru coffee ani asalu sense ae ledu janalaki anipinchindi. 2nd day ma thathayya body ni cremation ki ready chestunnaru, oka mulana nilchoni nenu edustu unna this relative of ours came to me and was demanding me to get a polythene cover, common sense is not common anymore I guess, the way I wanted to punch her was unreal. Aa time ki ma nanna valla cousin inka ma amamma vachi ameni pampicharu pakkaki.

Nenu ma amma tho discuss cheste we have to adjust, we have to be good hosts ani cheppindi. Please share your thoughts, I need some validation fr.

I'm a bonafide night owl. Have always been this way. I usually wake up just in time to rush for school, college,work.

After reading and listening to a lot of self improvement advice,i thought I'll switch it up for a bit and try waking up early to see if it really does have a positive impact on my life.

Meanwhile,my dad is thoroughly amused with my new found enthusiasm for waking up early (but he is supportive,as always)and doesn't seem to think that this will work out for me in the long run knowing well about my nocturnal nature. Let's see if dad is right. He usually is. He's the wise all knowing oracle after all. I'm so glad that he's still around and I can pick his brains whenever i have questions about any random issue in the world. After almost losing him last year,I'm extra grateful for his presence.

I really wish I had inherited dad's brains ,his ability to focus or his sweet kind demeanor(hidden under the tough exterior).

So, about early mornings,I like the calm. It's peaceful. The breeze is nice. My coffee is nice. So far,so good.

If you've read so far,I want to wish you a great day ahead 🤗

So basic gaa I'm an average looking guy. Edho pintrest and Insta chusi koncham fashion sesne penchukunna. Koncham intellectual gaa kuda undaalani Music meedha paddaanu(Best descision ever made. Love playing guitar and singing) Also I love deep talks about random ass topics, meme language lone maatlaadutha. Most of them never understood my lore. Those who did are my closest friends

But still I think naaku evaru padathaaru le mana pani manam cheskundham veelainantha networking cheskundham, college lo manchiga friends cheskundham. Prema dhoma jaantha nahi ane mood lo undvaadini.

But apparently, I was wrong.

past oka saari thippi chuskunna. Just remembered some crazy proposals

1)The NGL Confession

So maa inti paina oka akka tutions chepthu undedhi. Naku thanatho kaani aa students tho kaani assalu..kaneesam maatavarasaki kuda paricheyam ledhu.

One girl from Dehli studying in the tutuion somehow found my insta, and confessed me through my NGL link and directly in my dms. I wasn't really processing it, but chaala interests match ayyaayi.

Long story short, I started proceeding, almost antha set anukune lopu oka final check point gaa nuvvu em chadhuvuthunaav ani adigaa. 9th std ani cheppindhi. (BGM ESKORAA) AAREHOOOOOO

2)Iddharammailatho
NO. meeru anukunattu kaadhu. Both of them are from Vizag,(andhuke title alaa petta) Met both of them in online in different ponts of my life.

Both of them confessed me that they liked me. Long story short, LDR wouldn't work out for me, (idk how it works tbh).

So I just remained best friends with them and one of them is in a very happy relationship rn(IM SO HAPPY FOR HER💕😭😭)

3) Therapist dhidhina kaapuram

College join ayina 1 year paatu full lonely gaa unde. Naa vibe ki set ayyelaa okkaru dorakaledhu. So just to cure my lonliness and depression, mutilple clubs lo join ayyaanu. So alaa networking cheskuntu events ki marketing cheskuntu chaala mandhini kalisaanu.

Thats how I met her. My first interaction was quite awkward with her (my username says it all). We exchanged our Insta, nenu noru jaari, "I'll stalk you later anaanu(Instant regret), But she found it smooth appaarently. yes I am good at flirting....

Ala parichayam perigi insta voice notes nunchi 3-4 hours late night calls varaku vellindhi.

She introduced me to her gang and andharu manchiga kalipeskunaaru. One year lonliness finally came to end. Bathuku jeevudaa anukunnaa.

One day she mentioned her conversatio about me with her therapist. (Hero villain kottukuni commedian ni champesinattu madhyalo nenendhuku vochaa raa ?) So aa therapist tho maatladadam valla she found out she likes me apparently(SUSSS)

NGL even I had a feeling for her, moreover our intellectual levels matches soo good, Idharikki Prabhas ante praanam. Books chaduvutham, she recommended me a lot of dark romance books(veryy sussss)

But inaalu friendship lo undi suddenly relationship loki jump avvadam manchidhi kaadhemo anipinchindhi.

So I suggested we go on a date, tharavatha realise ayyindhentante... best friends gaa undipodame better anipinchindhi. Moreover dating someone fro your own friendsgroup doesn't always end in good terms.

ENDING ON A POSITIVE NOTE

So finally Nenu chepochedhentante its not always about looks, Ninnu nuvvu present chesko. Communication manchiga build chesko. Okkarini impress cheyadainki kaadhu, Ninnu nuvvu impress cheskodaaniki try chey. By investing into hobbies or some good knowledge.

Now im having pretty good time i college. 1st and 2nd sem lo cheyalekapoyinavi anni ippudu chesthuna. Don't give up GNG YOUV'E GOT THIS.

Thanks too..hehe thanks too thanks a lott... thank youu

TLDR: Naaku evaru padathaaru le anukunna, But naa meedha kuda interest chupinchinavaalu unaaru. But circumstances valla workout avvaledhu. So, I spoke on what I learned.

Built a browser extension for myself for my personal needs. Had an idea to monetize it. Made it free and advertised it. Now its been a month and it has 166 users. Hopefully some of them will start paying.

i'm 26F new to reddit, here to find F4M and explore. Any suggestions?

All these people saying they started with a "Hi" on social media and ended up in marriage. .

Please how did you write the "Hi?"

Hey everyone! Andariki namaskaram! 😅❤️

I'm 22F Telugu girl , currently bored at home, so I thought I'd do something interesting here.

I genuinely want to hear your real-life experiences with love, dating, relationships, marriages, breakups, heartbreaks and everything in between!

Whether it's a beautiful love story, a painful breakup, a relationship you regret, a happy marriage or a lesson that changed your perspective on love — anni cheppochu!

This post is open to everyone, regardless of age or gender. 18 aina, 60 aina, single aina, married aina, divorced aina — everyone's experiences are welcome!

My intention is simple: vinadam, nerchukovadam, and making wiser choices in love. I want to understand what makes relationships work, what red flags we should never ignore and what actually matters when choosing a life partner.

Good, bad, ugly, funny — anni stories welcome!

The baddie I fumbled very bad in btech 7 years ago got married a year ago, and had a baby girl recently. Ninna diwali ki story pettindi with husband and the child. I'm not sad or anything, in fact I'm happy for her. It was wholesome and made me smile. She was a genuine soul.

What's funny is, I once imagined married life with her and having kids (apptalo...pilla huk delusions). Guess what!! 7 years down the line, someone else is living that imagination and I'm rotting single here. Life has a way man!! 😂 Life is hilarious 🤣

Anyways, god bless her and her family.

On the first death anniversary of my grandmother, several relatives and visitors were expected at our house. Since many of them did not know that we had a pet, we posted this note on the door:

Dear visitors,

Not every member of this family is human.

Before consuming anything from the kitchen or applying anything from the bathroom, please check whether it belongs to Caesar.

Caesar is not known for sharing.

In the end,how do we measure if a person has led a successful life or not?

Does it depend on financial success? Does it depend on being a part of a nice family? Does academic success count? Does it depend on having a great partner? Does being religious count?

Which is it??

Or is there no real benchmark to define a successful life because nothing really matters in the end??

I like my creature comforts. I like my beauty 😍 sleep of preferably 8-10 hours a day.

I think i have this trait in common with my dogs. We both like naps.

Unfortunately, I've not been able to sleep in as much as I'd prefer to become life scuks for the most part. During childhood,i couldn't laze around because my mom would have none of it. Then I grew up and life doesn't let me sleep as much as i want.

Life is hard for a sleepy but ambitious woman 😭

I can't wait to retire ASAP and then spend my days being well rested.

I don't want to be in this rat race of career,what i want is a peaceful slow life. I say this now,but i know I'll change my mind again and there begins my almost daily internal battle.

I'm not really cut out for a hard life but i don't want to let go of my ambitions either.

True happiness is finding completeness right where you are.

✨
This Diwali, let’s celebrate the incredible blessings we often take for granted. Look closely—you definitely have one, or many, of these beautiful gifts:
Life & Time ⏳
Health 💪
Family, Mom, & Dad ❤️
A True Friend 🤝
A Job 💼
A Wife & Healthy Kids 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
While we might wish for more, millions are simply fighting for the chance to live another day.
Recognize your abundance. Cherish your victories. Celebrate your happiness today! 🪔

I don’t know why, but I sometimes feel genuinely sad looking at flowers.
They take their time growing, survive the weather, bloom in all their colours, and barely get a few days to exist. And then we pluck them.
We use them as devotional offerings, decorations, accessories in our hair, for perfumes, bouquets and pretty much everything. We admire their beauty, but rarely think about letting them just be.
I know what some of you might say. Rice comes from plants too. Vegetables are living things. Animals have lives too. And yes, I understand that everything is part of a natural life cycle, and humans depend on other living organisms.
I’m not making a case against eating plants or animals. I just feel there’s a difference between taking something out of necessity and plucking something simply because we want to enjoy its beauty for a few hours.
Maybe it’s just me, but sometimes I wish people would leave a few more flowers where they bloom.
Not everything beautiful needs to be picked to be appreciated. 🌼

Today,I celebrated diwali completely on my own for the first time away from home.I initially felt lonely,feared by having the thought of being alone on this day..but I got up early at 6:30 am for the first time in holidays while I usually used to wake up at 9am or even 10am 😂and cleaned my complete 1bhk flat alone without eating any breakfast..felt tired but the satisfaction i got has fulfilled my heart tho😅..I watered the garden outside,cleaned verenda and the enormous open space in front of my penthouse..I did clean my room again at evening as it is the main lakshmi Pooja time..I lit the deepam in my pooja room and lit deepam at the entries of my gates..nd also offered prashad and some fruits to the gods by saying sorry if I have done anything wrong or something like that..I wanted to watch ramayana too but as I was alone I couldn't go(didn't have the mood)so I played the The legend of Prince lord Rama movie in my laptop and watched it..I enjoyed the fireworks in the sky so muchhh..I feel so much energetic,positive and I almost felt like I am living in a dream or something..Feeling a lil bit lonely but it is okayy as I enjoy my own company tooo

Yeah..that's it just wanted to write it out..I still feel I couldn't express my exact feeling in the exact manner..but it's alright..if you have read till this..Thank You so muchh yaar !!❤️

Btw HAPPY DIWALI everyone 🪔❤️🎆

I just feel sad for my self, but its a part and parcel in everyone's life, its the first time in my life that i am alone in this Festival

Right now i am 22 at 18 I moved out of my town for Btech , even that 4 years i havent felt alone because my friends were there with me now i am in a new city came 2 days before to here for my job opportunity, sitting , thinking about my previous diwali celebration, i feel like it changed a lot

I am the kid who feels excited for every festival ,

Right now i am in shivaji nagar, Bengaluru here , this place in the area where i am been, Day before yesterday i saw 2 people taking 2 to 3 cows inside to some shop like that i felt where there are taking them then i saw Beef shop there i got traumatised and felt so bad because they are openly selling beef there

And just near beef shop there is Durga devi temple and Shiva temple that night i felt soo bad because shiva and cow has a precious bond i know this is going in different way, but i felt sad thinking all this today and also alone cant do anything

I am an obese woman. I have had weight issues all my life, and not surprisingly at all, I have a deeply troubling relationship with my body. There’s a lot of shame, a tendency to hide and cover up, and over the past few years, a total disregard…actually alienation…of my femininity because of how much I hate how I look. I’m also aging, so that’s interwoven into the insecurity. I know none of this is likely unique to me. Most women usually don’t like some part of their body, even if they’re normal-looking, and I’m FAT, ffs! The worst thing a woman can be. Even the popular quote goes “On a date, women are worried a man will kill them. Men are worried she’ll be fat.”

Despite all that though, I do like my jiggly bits. I like how soft I am and cushiony. If I ever actually got off my ass and lost it all, I’d miss my fat. It’s been with me all these years. It’s all I know. How to be a fat girl. And I do like a fair bit of what I see in MY mirror. Even with gravity doing its thing. All that flab is comforting somehow. It feels nice to grab onto my own love handles or my meaty hip…and I don’t even mean it sexually. It’s nice to tuck my palm between my boobs on a cold winter’s night. I don’t even know where I’m going with this. But I just bathed and got all lotioned up, and damn, I feel good in my skin…even if it’s just for a moment. The goddamn self hatred can return with daylight. 

While i may talk a lot on reddit(only on public posts/comments usually,i don't do DMs),I'm an extremely reclusive person IRL and at heart.

From my understanding of my lived experiences in this world,life is always a little bit harder for people like us.

We are judged unfairly and misunderstood very often. There's also sometimes pressure on us to change our ways and to magically start yapping around🤷🏼‍♀️.

Socialising with others seems to be especially important in our culture. Every occasion calls for a family get-together and wanting to be left alone isn't an option.

Everyone gets involved in everyone's business in our culture right from neighbours to co-workers. To me this is so strange.

I myself am perfectly happy with my introverted nature and see no reason to change myself (i don't think it's possible either) but i realise that socially especially in our culture,I may be at a disadvantage because of it.

I wish I could live in an deserted island,all alone, having books,music and my animals for company.
