Hey. I'm from mumbai. 6 ft(I'm not making it up)

I know this sub works as a matrimony or looking for a serious relationship and I can assure you that I'm looking for something serious. But what I'm about to say might be a deal breaker for you but if not I'd love to connect. Here it goes :

I'm still 23 so I'm not looking for marriage at least for the next 4 years since I'm completing my masters and don't even have a job at this point. That doesn't mean I'm just looking for casual though.

I'm career focused and if you decide to show interest in my post let me warn you that we would be getting to know each other gradually and would be in a long distance relationship as I have no other choice for next 1.5 ~ 2 years.

Generally people would tell me I'm a hypocrite for writing this post and saying I'm career focused but I do have a genuine reason. I'm a hindu and I'll be 26 by the time i have a job. Which means my family would start pushing me for an arranged marriage and I feel it would be too late when that happens to find someone by myself because building trust takes time.

I am looking for a girl who knows what they want and are just as ambitious as me. I'm emotionally available and my family is small and chill so no pressure. I'm a bit weird in a funny way and health enthusiast.

This is my 1st post so I don't know how good it is. My long term goal is still marriage and having an early retirement of course.

I'm fine with the age gap of +/- 5

My gate cse score is 651. I just missed iiit blr by 2 point score. Chances are I'll get it in the 2nd round. But i got bits goa and would probably slide up for future iteration granted i pay the fees.

Here's the thing, my preference is iiit blr > bits

But the fact is I'm not in the list for iiit blr yet (list 1 cutoff being 653). Approx 40 students are above me in gate rank where list 1 cutoff stops.

So here's my dilemma

1. Do i pay 3.5lakh fees of sem 1 for bits or just let it go?, in which case I'm not allowed for further iterations. Would it be risky considering my score and chances at iiit blr?

2. Regarding the refund policy for bits does anyone have any idea if i need to visit the institute for cancelling the admission or if it's online.

3. Generally how long will it take for a refund? Since I'm thinking of a student loan but if I'm going to cancel my bits admission I'll have to pay from my pockets.
