Okaaaaaay this might be a weird post for this sub but hear me out —

i've been doing DSA (basically the stuff that tech interviews torture you with) every day and honestly? doing it solo is rough. no accountability, no one to rant to when a problem makes zero sense, and no one to celebrate with when it finally clicks at 1am lol.

so i'm looking for someone local who's also in that grind , doesn't matter if you're a beginner or already mid-level, just someone consistent who wants to solve a problem or two daily and maybe meet up at a café occasionally to do it in person. bangalore has enough cafés for us to never run out of spots 😄

would genuinely love if it's a girl — mixed study dynamics just work better for me personally, no weird reason, just how i vibe. but if you're serious and consistent, honestly that's what matters most. all genders welcome to reach out.

drop a comment or DM, let's stop suffering alone 🙏

Not sure why I'm posting this but I just needed to get it out somewhere.

Lately I've been feeling really low and disconnected ,like I'm present but not really there. The worst part isn't even the loneliness itself, it's that I'm genuinely a good listener. I show up for people, I hear them out, I care. But the moment I open up, the energy shifts. Eyes glaze over. Conversation moves on. And it stings more than I let on.

I've even switched up my social circle thinking it was just the wrong people ,but honestly? Same feeling, different faces. At this point I'm starting to wonder if it's something about the way I come across, or if this is just... life?

I genuinely want to grow through this, not just vent about it. But it's hard to explain to people in real life without feeling like you're being dramatic.

If you've felt this way and found your way out of it , or even if you're still in it , I'd really love to hear from you. Just knowing someone gets it helps.
