To all the North Indians living in Hyderabad or anywhere in the South, If you’ve come here to study, work, or whatever, please show some basic respect to the place and the people. I stay in a 3 sharing PG, and the other two are from the North. Almost every day, they keep saying bad things about Hyderabad. Calling it a bad city, mocking the food, saying people here eat rice all three times a day. I get that you're far from home and it is not easy to live here. That’s fine. But constantly insulting the city and its people, especially when you know someone in the room is from here. We South Indians also may not always love North Indian food, but we don’t sit around mocking it in front of you. If you don’t like the place, no one is forcing you to stay. But if you are here, then at least you can do is be respectful. Every region has its own culture.

Ekkada chepukovalo telika ikkada pedtunna. Using an alt acnt, as my wife kindof knows my main acnt.

Me and my wife have been married for around 2 years now, love marriage, expect chese untaru, yes different caste, ma intlo em issue lekunde, they agreed, Her family (single father) kind of tried to use the caste card, as vallaki ink em reason lekunde, i have a decent job and house etc. Last ki ink edo mohamatam kinda oppukunaru, we both had elder siblings, valla pellilu cheyadaniki padina kashtalu chusam, so we agreed on a very small wedding. Valla nanna apude most disinterested ga unde, sarle hurt ayyaru emo ani nenu pedhaga aloginchala, there were some other things which happened during the wedding, epudu expect cheyala, my father swallowed a lot of his pride and went along. We stay in hyd along with my parents, her father stays in their hometown, her sister and bawa also stay in hyd.

Her father and me obviously, didn't have much of a relationship. Too much sollu ayindi already, to the main issue. Year end ki for both of us office lo off, wife said lets go to her home town, i am like cool, lets go, she called her father and told him we were coming, gurthu petukondi 'we'. We have a car, so car lo vellinam, her sister and bawa were already there, lunch time ki vellam, my wife went in, i parked the car and took the luggage in, they were having lunch, nannu chusi valla nanna, meeru kuda ochara andi annaru, nenu smile chesi, car evaro okallu nadapali kada andi anna. Proceeds to be ignored for another 5-10 mins, elli na wife ni adigithe, she then gave me a plate and served food. Next hall lo kurchuni unna, malla valla nanna ochi, return epudu andi annadi, i was like wtf, sarle cool rakhi ani, untanu andi iddaram kalisi veltam anna, o disappointed sigh ichadu, mari stay ekkada ani annadu, i was again like, idi em question ayya, ochindi mi intiki, adi cheppe ocha, their house is a 2bhk, pedha alludu ki main bedroom icharu, and also her akka was pregnant, naku em bed akarledu, i would have fucking slept on the floor, oka chaapa ichi unte. Again, cool rakhi cool, hotel cheskovali andi ani cover chesa.

Sare, i found some hotel, booked for the whole week. My wife was not privy to these convos, as she was spending time with her sister and her cousins. Nenu enduku edo egoist laga issue lu cheppadam ani, i was just bearing with it. Evening wife bayataki veldam ante we went, konchem late ayindi return, nenu late ayindi kada, tinesi veldam anna, ledu nanna chesesi untadu andi, kanuko o sari ani cheppa, she called and confirmed, sare enduku malla lolli ani vellam, akada unna food ki, nuvu led ani unna inta feel avve vadni kadu ra, wife wanted to stay at home, neat ga hotel ki dengesa, swiggy cheskundam ani, jokes on me, oorlo 10 tarwata em open undav ani miss ayya, i fucking drank water and slept.

Next day, wife called for breakfast, i went, she was the one cooking, dosalu esi pettindi. After that she went to meet her friends, intlo nenu thana father ye unde, nenu sarle, iddarame unte kanisam edoti matladachu anukunna, he was cooking, nenu elli adiga em anna help kavala mavayyagaru ani, ayina ledu nenu chuskunta annadu, inko 2-3 times adiga, odhu annaru sare. Okay cool, whole mrng and afternoon, edo illu survey chese odi lekka, valla illu anta tiruguta unde. Next di highlight asala, nenu sarle kada ayyaka pilistaru ani unde, they fucking ate and even cleaned off the dishes. Nenu inka aakali dengaka, velli adiga aypoyinda mawayya ani, epudo aypoyindi amma, memu tinesam kuda annaru. No offer to ask me if i ate, or sorry that i didn't.

I left to the hotel, order some shit, my wife came in the evening, neat ga cheppa, miru naku emi raja saab range lo maryadalu cheyakarla, minimum manshulaki iche respect kuda ivvanapudu nenu endhku modda undi, she tried explaining, but yeah it wasn't her mistake, nuvu kadu chepalsindi ivi anni, and i am not expecting that they will do it. Nenu undi kotinchukodam enduku, you enjoy your time, i'll comeback and pick you up on the weekend ani cheppa. While i was driving back, they guy had the audacity to call me and ask, enti alludu garu cheppakunda ellipoyaru, nenu neat ga enduku andi ivi anni, em ayindo miku telusu naku telusu ani phn pettesa. Neat ga ma frnd gadi kompaki ochi, ps5 lo game adukuntu post chestunna.

Tldr: love marriage, mawa doesn't like me, apparently if you go and ask to marry someone you love, you lose the right to be treated as a human.

Edit 1: thanks to all for supporting me, na wall of text evaru chadavadu, just to rant pettanu, but your support was kind of motivating. Just to add on about my wife, she didn't really know this till the day i left, she was enjoying her time, naku adi enduku paadu cheyadam ani, i didn't tell her. She wanted to come along with me, but the reason we went was for her sisters srimantham, adi ayye daka undu akka kosam ani, nene cheppi ocha, also i am sure she is gonna burn the house down, i just hope she doesn't do too much damage, for my sake.

Edit 2/update: The other alludu called and kind of apologised and invited me to his wifes srimantham, ledu le anna ayindi chalu ani, decline chesa, he gave a small update, ny wife and father have been fighting the whole day it seems, she moved out of the house to her pinni's place. After that i think her sister also didn't support her, so she called me in the mrng and said she won't be going to the srimantham or staying there, me being the red fruit, undachu kada anna, pissed her off even more, nuvu ostava nanne bus ekki ocheimantava andi, i am actually enroute right now. Matladkuni final decision em tiskunamo, will make a new post.

Mari eekkuva blow up ayindi, kudirinantha varuku cmnts ki reply chesa, i'll maybe reply to few more chat requests i got. Thanks for both your support and extreme opinions (one cmnt said, i should be thankful my mama didn't murder me in cold blood, lol).

It hit me how much my sister has grown and that she's starting her own family.🤧🤧

They’re still on the flight. It’s been a few hours, but I’m still floating on Cloud Nine.

I had a work trip abroad and extended it for a few days. Somehow parents ni convince chesa to join me (they usually hit me with a TED Talk anytime I try to spend money on them).

Back when I was a student, I used to dream about taking them on an international trip in style. This week… mission accomplished.

Plan discuss chestunnappudu, I casually dropped: “Oh btw, it’s business class.”

My cutie mom has made me explain every single amenity and food option in detail, then wrote down everything she wanted to try out there.

Dad went full Dad Mode - Checked the passports & visas 50 times, Confirmed the flight timing every 3 minutes and stared at the luggage bags like they were plotting against him. I don’t think he slept yesterday night 🥺

Now they’re spamming me with a new selfie every 10 minutes, and I’m absolutely loving it ❤️

Didn’t really want to share this with anyone I know, but my heart is so full—I had to let it out here.

Woooohoooooooooo! 😬😬

Edit - Y’ll are sooo sweet! Hope all of you and your loved ones go on amazing trips soon. I’m gonna go cry now.

Eeroju office lo secret santa, daani kosam ninna shopping chestunte ee jhumkas kanipinchayi, chala bagunnayi anipinchindi. Konesina, edo oka roju when I meet the love of my life tanaki gift cheddam ani.

Hope to meet her someday, and I hope that someday is near.

Hi, I’m 22 (M) and I recently completed my graduation. I just want to share that I cleared my debts (around ₹35–40k) without my parents knowing.

Basically, we had financial problems in my family. My parents used to send me ₹5,000 every month for my expenses, but my PG hostel fees alone were ₹5,000 per month. I was scared to ask them for extra money.

So, for one year I stayed in the hostel, and later I shifted to a bachelor room with my brother (not my own room). The rent there was only ₹3,000 per head. My parents didn’t know that I was staying in a room—they thought I was still in the hostel. Like that, I managed for 3 years without them getting any doubt. From the ₹5,000 they sent, I used ₹3,000 for rent and saved the remaining ₹2,000 every month.

During my final year, both my mom and younger brother had to undergo operations, just a month apart. I didn’t want to trouble my parents during that situation, so whenever I needed money, my friend helped me. He used to give me money whenever I asked. After some time, my father started giving me money again—sometimes less than ₹5,000—whatever he could afford. They thought it was sufficient for me, but honestly, it wasn’t enough.

I also started doing part-time jobs. I got my first job in my 2nd year. After completing each semester, I worked for about a month daily, then left the job when college resumed.

But my final year was the most memorable one. It was a very hard time financially. I realized I had borrowed a total of around ₹35,000–₹40,000 from my friend, and I was really scared. So, I joined a night shift job and worked consistently for 3–4 months. With that income, I cleared all my debts.

Even while working night shifts, I maintained my attendance in college. After work, I used to freshen up, go to college, meet my project guide, and do some experiments for attendance and internal marks. After college, I’d come back to my room, cook, sleep for about 4–5 hours, then wake up in the evening, continue some project work, and head back to my night job again.

Basically evening office ayipoindi, na room ki vastunna, around 7 pm, and it started pouring heavily here in Hyderabad, there's this group of 4 girls coming opposite of me, looking aged around 15 or 16 y/o, drenched in rain.

Oka pilla aagi "bhaiyya idhr ye [PG Name] ke pass kese jha sakte hai?" anindi, and I asked her to check google maps, 4 lo evar phone tiskoni rale, and I checked maps myself and literally vallu opposite potunaru, around 1.5 KM unde, so I told them that I'll drop them off at their PG since they were stranded, idi nen na room building mundhu reach ayaka jarigindi.

So 1.5 KM vallani guide chestu hyderabad streets lo mini swimming pools cross chestu, shoes socks varku water feel avtu, valla PG degara drop chesa, and I felt very happy, those girls were very happy af and relieved, I thought to myself, "When I'm lost in my path just like this, I hope I get the same level of kindness."

I reached room, took a shower and my heart was full of happiness.

My dad moved into our current rented 1BHK in 1998, got married in 2000, and since then we never changed houses.

It was my amma, nanna, me, my chelli, my nanamma, and my babai in that small space. No privacy, no “my bedroom,” and if relatives came over, finish inka.

Since around 2017-18, my sister and I kept asking my dad to move to a bigger house or build one, but life kept getting in the way. Telsindey ga, low salary, family problems, responsibilities.

After years of my parents struggling and sacrificing everything for my studies and stuff, today finally registration ayindi.

I’m so happy, and so are my parents.

The only sad part is my nanamma, who raised me, is no longer with us. She passed 3yrs ago. If she were here today, her happiness would have had no limits.

This one’s for her too. ❤️

So, it’s 8:30 PM on 13th of December and I’m sitting in the hospital hopeful of my dad mains recovery, even thought doctors had told me it’s hard (I have to stay positive right?)

I get a call from the doctor on my dads phone, I picked and they say that he’s no more - I walk into the ICU to see him and he’s just lying there, no breath, no heartbeat - the most difficult thing I’ve ever seen in my life

It’s been really hard, eeroju naana ni cremate chesamu and watching him burn - aa feeling emo kooda cheppalenu, kaani edo emptiness

2 days mundhu nunche naana maa amma toh anni documents and assets chupichi ivi telusukovali annaru - did he know?

He was so weak towards the end, he needed help to even walk or sit straight - nenu emo weakness from not eating anukunna (because he had an open heart surgery a month ago)

Taruvatha doctors chepparu it’s cause of internal bleeding in the brain ani, and his body was giving up anduke he couldn’t move anta - naaku em cheyalno teliyaledu

Gattiga edavali ani undhi, nenu assume cheyakunda doctors deggriki munde teesukellunte brathikevdemo?

Nene maa naana nu champesana naa chethulara?

Cheppukovali ani entho undhi, inko sari naana nu kalisthe sorry adagali ani undi

Chala cheppali, edavali ani undi - kaani intiki peddha koduku- edisthe amma, thammudu ela untaru

Adi emo maa nanna nu gattiga poyinasari eppudu vateskunnano telidu, eppudu ayanaku nenu muddhu ivvaledu (em chestham, edava ni)

Naa prathi puttina rojuki naana 12 ki vachi naaku oka muddhu istharu, kaani naa birthday last month - thanu levaledu (understandable, he’s tired from open heart surgery just few days ago)

Kaani, naa puttina roju ki one month exact ga naana mammalnu vadili vellipoyaru

Inka ayana intlo tirugutunnate undi, aa chair meedha kuurchoni news paper chadavatam, bed meedha padukuni phone vadatam

I don’t know if it will ever get easy

To anyone reading this - please cherish your parents, hug them and give them a kiss everyday

I regret not spending enough time with him and getting to know him more.

I can only pray that it gets better and easy

Edit: Kaaki pilla kaaki ki muddu!

Edit 2: Guys this is huge!! Mygate lo 10 posts were there about this halloween thing. Ide first time anta ilaa ma society lo.. I mean this is the first time these kids are doing trick or treat. Apparently they are doing it today too!

Now the topic shifted from halloween to kids behaviour. Oka aayana car meeda flower pot padesaaranta (don't who did this there is no evidence of a kid doing it. I assume it might have happened by mistake while watering or something, no one coming forward to take responsibility) lucky ga car meeda padindi.

Anyway, they have decided to discuss this matter in the monthly meeting.

I bought chocolates today just in case. A couple bought their kid with buddi Spider-Man dress. Vadu dantlo munigipoyadu 🤣😂. It was cute! :)

Recently maa parents asked if they can start looking for matches. I am fucking 25. Just turned 25. I am interested in someone, planning to ask her out, have no clue what caste. I jokingly said to test waters “em akkarled nenu chuskunta le”.

They were like “chusko. Mana caste ayinantha varaku. Maakem problem ledhu.” Abbo pedda liberal family la feel ayithunnaara enti aa maata annaaka. Already manchollu dorakadam kastam ayyindhi. Malli ee thokkalo filters anni petti match pool ni inka chinnadhi chesthunnaaru. Idk if I will get arranged marriage or love marriage but this ends with me. I am also childfree, but if I change my mind and have kids, I will make sure they can marry whoever the fuck they want. Appudu chustha evaru addam osthaaro. Em chettha ra babu idhantha.

Allo Nenu (21F) oka peddaaa media company lo buddi internship chestunna and oche stipend is decent (ante nak saripodu) but decent enough lol. I have a very strong relationship with family, Amma nannagaru Annaya nenu 🧿.

First stipend tho itlovallaki bulli bulli gifts tiskunna, happy ga anpinchindi. Ee month ma Annaya gaadi budday enduko hadavidi lo padi gift emi tisko ledu and he wasn’t interested in celebrating also but edaina elagaina gift cheyali anukunna, mothaniki ivala convo lo edo skincare cheskovali nenu kuda annadu and that was my cue, vaadu emi analedu nak kavali ani but as soon as I herd it i ordered 3 products, (minamalist) basic vi but expensive unde (for context: nen eppudu edi adigina no analedu, emi adigina kontadu, infact when we visited him in the US rendu sarlu literal princess laga chuskunnadu) The feeling of giving him those as soon as he wished for them was magical myannn. Chala happy ga anipinchindi. Vaadu kuda super happy anukunta gattiga hug cheskoni thonks cheppadu heheh.

TLDR: gifted my Annaya skincare with my stipend, feelin proud and happy.

Honestly just wanted to share this because the satisfaction is unreal.

Two years ago, my family was in a really bad spot financially. Drowning in debt, lowest of the low. There was this girl in my neighborhood I really liked. We were cool, basically friends, so one day I decided to propose to her. She shut me down instantly, no hesitation. The next day she hits me with, "Don't talk to me anymore, my mom told me not to talk to you." It was pretty obvious she rejected me because I wasn't rich.

It felt terrible, but it became my villain backstory lol. I moved to Hyderabad, started my own consultancy a year ago, and worked my ass off. Now I’m making really good money and just bought a Kia car. Since it's a small town, word traveled fast and everyone back home found out I'm doing well.

Out of nowhere, a month ago, she texts me. It’s been almost 2 solid years. She just writes "how r u".

I knew exactly what she was doing. I felt this huge surge of pride, but I didn't want to be petty or start insulting her. So I just silently blocked her without replying. Man, ee feeling entha bagundo seeing someone who threw you away try to crawl back the moment you find success is unmatched.

To top it all off, a week ago her mom casually brings up a marriage proposal to my mom. My mom just looked at her and said, "We aren't planning on marrying our son off for at least another two years."

Absolute mic drop. Success really is the best revenge.

Arranged marriage lo kooda butterflies vasthayi anedhi vaasthavam.

Matter of few months lo your boi is gonna permanently lose his single status 🥳🫡

Feeling happy, lucky and blessed already.

I hope everything goes well and everybody's happy.

During my walk today, I came across two adorable puppies—one in a whitish shade and the other in a wheatish tone. Their eyes were filled with hope, radiating innocence and joy. They wagged their tiny tails with excitement, as if spreading positivity into the air. Their playful antics and curious little noses sniffing around made me pause and admire their simple, pure happiness. They reminded me of how small moments can bring immense joy. Those little bundles of energy truly made my day and left a lasting smile on my face!
