The World is Changing... So is Sankey Tank

The World is Changing... So is Sankey Tank

Yesterday I moved back to Bangalore after staying away for almost 6 years.

This morning, I went for a walk near the lake I grew up around.

For 25 years, I had never seen it like this.

The water pulled back.
The ground exposed.
Grass growing where there should’ve been water.
Everything looked tired.

You leave home thinking some things will stay the same forever. And one day you come back and realize they waited for no one

Praying for rains and happiness for all

Anyone else feel super bored after coming back to PG?

I don’t know if it’s just me, but every day after work when I come back to my PG, the boredom hits instantly. Like the moment I open the door, it’s just silence, scrolling, and wondering what to even do with my evening.

I try watching shows, scrolling Instagram, sometimes even start learning something new… but I lose interest so fast. Weekdays feel especially long and repetitive. It’s weird because the day feels busy, but evenings feel empty.

How do you guys deal with this? What do you usually do after work so you don’t feel stuck in this boring routine? 😅

Weird looks I get when I go to Naturals by myself

I am not much of a dessert person but I enjoy occasional ice cream treats. So, once in a while, after wrapping up the day and all the chores, I ride in the beautiful Bangalore weather and stop at any NATURALS outlet for a mango ice cream.

It's been a couple of times since this has happened but everytime I go, these couples/friends give me a very judgemental look. It's like they're mocking me for not having company.

Honestly, I don't give 2 shits but it is infuriating honestly. Like, let me have my ice cream fuckers.

Saw this LEGEND on the ORR 🤣

Bengaluru ORR moment 😂

Saw this random brother on an Activa today and his hoodie absolutely killed me.

“Heading to work because I was too shy to dance on TikTok in 2020.”

Brother, wherever you are — thank you for making peak traffic slightly more bearable 😂🤝

I wanted to compliment you, but traffic moved before I could say it.

So posting this here in the hope that Bengaluru Reddit does its magic and this somehow reaches you.

Respect from one exhausted corporate survivor to another 🫡

I ended a relationship I truly wanted because I couldn't get past her past did I do the right thing? Now I'm just worried about her.

I came to Bangalore 3 years ago as a fresher. Since a lot of us joined together, we naturally formed a friend group and spent most of our time with office mates. I had a crush on one girl in our gang, but I held back because I could sense she had feelings for my roommate. When I asked him about it, he always brushed it off "we're just friends." Meanwhile, I'd quietly look for any five minutes I could spend with her. In early 2025, things got ugly. My roommate and her had a big fight and it turned physical he started hitting her. I stepped in and stopped it. That's when she finally told me they had been in a relationship the whole time. She was shocked to learn he had kept her a secret from even me, his own roommate. After that, most of us switched companies. She stayed stuck at the old one and honestly, still stuck on him. I started spending more time with her, just listening, letting her express everything she had been holding in. Over the next six months, I watched her slowly come back to life. Then somewhere along the way, we both caught feelings. We expressed them, started planning a future together, even talked about marriage. But things shifted. With the long distance, I constantly felt like a second option. The warmth she had shown early on faded. She became distant, guarded, and set strict boundaries which I understood, given what she had been through. I never pushed too hard. But one time, under some pressure, the truth came out she and my roommate had been physical. I can't fully explain what that did to me. I tried to accept it. I genuinely did. But I know my own mindset, and I was honest with myself: this would become a problem for me in the long run and that wouldn't be fair to her. So I ended it. I didn't give her the real reason. I just let it end. She's been through enough because of him. I refused to be another person who hurts her even if the way I hurt her looks different. I thought the kindest thing was to let her find someone who could love her without carrying this weight. But here's what's eating me now. She had already lost trust in men after everything my roommate put her through. She was completely closed off not entertaining any arranged marriage proposals, not letting anyone in. Out of everyone, she chose to trust me. I was the one she opened up to. And now I'm the one who walked away without even giving her a real reason. I keep asking myself did I do the right thing? Or did I just become another man who let her down? I'm not missing the relationship as much as I'm genuinely worried about her. What happens to someone who finally trusted again and then got left again? She already had no confidence in men before this. I'm scared of what this does to her. I know I can't carry this forever. But I can't stop thinking about it either. Has anyone been in this situation either side of it? Did I handle this wrong? And how do you make peace with a decision when you're not even sure it was right?

moving to bangalore for internship, need pg suggestions + first time living alone help 😭

hey everyone, i’m moving to bangalore at the end of may for a 6-month technical research internship near sampangirama nagar. my stipend is 40k/month, and thankfully office covers 2 meals on weekdays, so that should help a bit with expenses.

i’m currently looking for a single occupancy pg with food included, preferably under 10k/month, around shivajinagar, vasanth nagar, or anywhere reasonably close to sampangirama nagar.

just wanted to ask a few things:

  • is 40k enough to live decently in that area?
  • any pg recommendations that are actually good/safe/clean?
  • any general advice for someone moving to bangalore alone for the first time?

honestly feeling a little nervous since this is my first time moving out and living alone, so i’d really appreciate any help or suggestions. please help me out 😭

First time dating app experience

I am from mumbai F, and I tried installing and speaking to one guy who was very gentleman like on call. After 3 days of texting, we decided to meet.

At 7pm I was ready waiting, he was supposed to pick me up. Messages and calls don’t go through. He calls back after 15 mins saying he was caught up with work. So he will pick me up soon. And this goes on for another hour. Now its 8:30.

I was almost about to leave, then he tells
Me he reached at the location. I can see a Jeep, and the driver appeared to see the mirror. i walk towards it, it starts moving slowly ahead.
I keep asking on call, which car is it, he says Creta and I literally hear his jeep zoom past. Next second, I am blocked.

Anyone who hears this would think I am a catfish but I simply havent edited a single photo of mine. I looked exactly like my photos. His name also showed up differently on caller ID so everything about him is deffo fishy.

Having stood up is a funny experience but I find bangalore men very shady in general

Trying a sound healing + mindfulness gathering this weekend

Trying something slightly different this weekend in Bangalore.

A small guided gathering around sound healing, mindfulness, reflection, and meaningful conversations, hosted in a calm garden space.

We’ll be exploring Ho'oponopono as well (a Hawaiian practice around emotional release and forgiveness). No prior meditation experience needed, even if you’re just curious or looking to slow down for a couple of hours, you’d probably enjoy this.

https://reddit.com/link/1thh1n1/video/byfxanpj622h1/player

The idea is simple:
good people, calming music/frequencies, a peaceful setting, and conversations that feel more real than small talk.

Also includes refreshments + post-session hangout.

at Zen Garden by Zariyaa

Anyone would be interested here?

let's plan

I’m a 26-year-old guy who’s been single for a while and is looking to meet someone genuine. I’d love to find a partner to enjoy simple things with casual after-work hangouts, relaxed weekends, and meaningful conversations. I prefer taking things slow and building a real connection naturally.

This if for guys only

Guys have you ever gone through the AskIndianWomen subreddit?

If not just spend some time reading it. You will find a completely different spectrum of problems women deal with every day. Some of the posts are honestly bone chilling.

I knew these things existed but actually reading real experiences from people hits very differently.

Not trying to start any debate or gender war here. Just perspective. I randomly stumbled across it today and it genuinely changed how I look at a lot of things.
