I genuinely want opinions on this, especially from girls, because maybe my thinking is outdated.

So I’ve had 2 relationships in the past, and I noticed that I honestly don’t feel comfortable if my girlfriend has very close male friends. I know many people will call this insecurity or toxic thinking, and maybe there’s some truth in that too, which is why I’m asking openly.

At the same time, I believe in doing the same myself. It’s not like “she can’t have male friends while I can have female friends.” If I’m serious about someone, I naturally maintain distance from close female friendships too because my focus becomes that one person.

What confuses me is this:

People say relationships have ups and downs, and during those times they need friends for emotional support. Fair enough. But why do many people prefer opposite-gender friends for that instead of same-gender friends?

And before anyone misunderstands me, I’m not saying boys and girls can never be friends. Obviously they can. But nowadays I personally feel many opposite-gender friendships slowly become emotionally complicated from at least one side.

Maybe I sound old-school, but I genuinely want to understand different perspectives instead of pretending to agree with everything.

So I want to ask:

Is discomfort with opposite-gender close friendships automatically toxic?

How do girls see male friendships after getting into a serious relationship?

Do you think completely platonic friendships are actually common nowadays?

Open to hearing respectful opinions.

I genuinely want to ask people working corporate jobs in Gurgaon — how are you keeping your social life alive?

My daily routine looks something like this:

Wake up at 4 AM

Morning routine: meditation, home workout, reading, getting ready

Leave for office

Travel from Delhi to Gurgaon: around 7 AM to 9 AM

Office: 9 to 6

Return travel: around 6 PM to 9:30 PM

Sleep at 12 AM

And then repeat the same cycle every single day.

Weekdays disappear in work + travel, weekends disappear in recovering from exhaustion. At this point, it feels like life has become only responsibilities, traffic, and survival.

I’m not even asking about partying every weekend or having a huge friend circle. I just want to know:

How do you meet new people?, How do you maintain friendships?, How do you date or even have energy to socialize?, How do you avoid becoming emotionally disconnected from life?

Especially people doing the daily Delhi-Gurgaon up-down — how are you managing it mentally and socially?

Hey everyone, is there any girl to talk about something taboo 😈😂😂....

Hey everyone, I recently created this reddit account and posting from a while. The whole purpose of me to create this account is to find a girl who is interested in casual thing or atleast she should be interested in genuine connection even if it's friendship and majorly from delhi ir gurgaon. But I didn't find any here. From genuine connection, I mean the connection in which we both spare time to talk each other without ghosting, talk about each other's day, replies should be instant if you are not really busy ( I mean really busy vala busy you know), backchodi nonstop etc. and about casual thing, that you all know already 😅....

So let's have a good connection na yrr, dm me who is like minded

Hey everyone,

So, I recently made a post about how this 9–5 corporate job is killing my social life, and I mentioned that I’m here to build some genuine connections without ghosting. I actually got a pretty good response to that post, but the people who DM’d me after it aren’t responding now. I don’t really know why, but it’s cool — it’s their choice, and I can’t control anyone’s actions.

But it made me wonder: in friendship, is daily conversation really too much to ask for?

I feel like the term “low-maintenance friendship” has become too normal these days. Personally, I don’t think that kind of friendship feels genuine, because isn’t it mostly based on convenience? Like, people only talk when they feel like it, when they’re free, or when they need to vent about something. Otherwise, there’s no conversation for 2–3 days.

I like friendships that show effort. If you genuinely care about someone, you naturally make time for them. Maybe I’m wrong, but that’s just how I feel.

And if anyone here feels the same way about friendship, I think we might vibe — feel free to DM me.

Hey everyone, 25M here, so I am bored of my 9-5 corporate life and to have a social life, I recently created my first hinge account. I have sent like to some nice girls with whom my interest matches. But it's been a while now and I didn't get any lead.

So I just want to ask that, is it mandatory to buy subscription of hinge to get swipe or by any chance I can get someone without any subscription?

Also one more question, that if any girl here is also on hinge so why don't we skip this hinge app and connect directly?

Hey everyone, M25 here, so I have recently created this reddit account to make some good friends in delhi gurgaon, to alive my social life again out of my 9-5 corporate job, but I think, that was the wrong idea, the ghosting on reddit is really normal for people here....

I can't keep up with this ghosting thing,

So atlast, if anyone really want to build friendship or maybe backchod chill bond, then dm me your snap or discord, because I will delete this account tomorrow.

Working professional here, I created this account recently to find a genuine casual relationship — someone to vibe with, talk, relax, go on late-night drives/coffee, and enjoy good company without unnecessary drama or pressure. Tbh, I find this more peaceful and relaxing than committed one. I am working in gurgaon so looking for some like minded people from gurgaon delhi majorly. Prefer mature, open-minded, and easygoing people.

Hey everyone, Actually I work in corporate 9-5 job with delhi-gurgaon up-down daily, so I spend major time in gurgaon that's why, I recently created my reddit account to find a genuine real friend without this ghosting thing, in gurgaon delhi. So anyone like minded can dm me

So if anyone have same though or interest, let's connect then....

Hey everyone, 25M here from delhi, working in gurgaon. I am just looking to connect with some like minded people and convert it into friendship. We can talk about anything like random thoughts, life, future, day to day life etc anything.

If anybody else is also interested in friendship and all, then feel free to dm me.
