25 M — She came back, I chose my peace now

I’m 25M.

A few years ago, I was deeply in love with a girl. She had confessed her feelings too, and things were serious for me. But after she got into her PG, things changed. There was a lot of outside attention, priorities shifted, and eventually we had a major fight. I walked away after that.

During that phase, I got close to another girl. We had great conversations and a strong connection at first, but it slowly turned into ego clashes. It felt like she was carrying a lot of past trauma and unresolved issues into whatever we had. At one point, instead of being honest with me, she seemed to emotionally attach herself to someone else just so she wouldn’t feel alone. I realized I didn’t want to carry someone else’s emotional baggage, so I left.

Then the first girl came back into my life.

She came back crying, saying we should talk, that things had gotten messed up, and slowly we started talking again. I was very clear in my mind that I didn’t want to rush into giving a second chance. I was mostly observing and seeing where things go.

Then one day, she confessed again that she really loved me.

few weeks ago, she told me something that honestly hit me hard: she got drunk and made out with her co-PG. She kept saying she feels guilty about it and that it’s been bothering her.

I didn’t react much. I stayed calm and simply said, “Okay, it happens.”

She seemed more worried about my calm reaction than the actual incident. She even said maybe it affected me more than I’m showing and told me to take my time.

The truth is, it did affect me inside. I felt disappointed and a bit insulted, but instead of reacting emotionally, I just felt like this gave me the clarity I needed. I quietly shifted my priorities and started looking at my own life, peace, and future more seriously instead of investing emotionally into something uncertain again.

At this point, I’m taking it as a sign to focus on myself and move forward instead of revisiting something that already broke once.

Is this what emotional closure feels like?

I 29F story with my husband 32m I am venting

I am extremely depressed. I don't know where I should start.

let me start with the current.. Family trip.

since my father recently passed away with cancer we took a trip to a near by hill station just to refresh our minds. we meaning, me, my husband our 3 year old, mom and 10 of our cousins and family.

during this trip I had explicitly told my husband not to drink much as I have a lot of trauma associated with him drinking. although he doesn't admit, his behaviour towards me slightly changes when he drinks and that triggers me a lot. so I did not want him to drink much.

now he starting to drink on our way to vacation, yes my cousins also drink and I don't care about them drinking, which is what he argues with.

he doesn't understand how traumatized I am, or how my family would judge. ours was a love marriage and my family never really accepted him, they always told me that he might not be a good fit for you.

and that life with him will not bring me happiness. while traveling he drank and I got upset told him not to, he asked me if I should decide what he should and shouldn't do and few things here and there got me upset.

finally we reached the spot, I requested him to not drink any more and I kept away from him for a few hrs. after a point my cousins and he where all drinking and chatting and I sat beside him. during which my cousin asked him why dint you have her bring a coat to where, as it's cold. he responded like "why doesn't she have sense, is she a child" he says he teased me, honestly he has been mean and disrespectful to me in front of many people before.

my cousin did not like it and she understood I got very upset by the comment so she told him not to give up on your wife like that, she always speaks so highly of you and to not do that.

all of this accumulated and I felt very overwhelmed and upset and I started crying, which resulted in my cousins trying to make me understand what made me so upset and he ended up telling that my sister telling him that made all the commition.

please advise me on what could have been done differently.

[26M] To all the girls out here, how a guy should ask you out for a date?

My last relationship left me broken. I have been single since then. It has been 2 and a half years now. I have been approached by a few women since then but it was too soon for me to get into another relationship because of the past trauma. Getting back to a relationship felt too scary to me.

Long story short, I want to get back to the dating market. I have tried several dating apps but I haven't got any success. So I want to get out there in the real world and ask someone out on a date. So there are few things I want to ask women here. How receptive women are to cold approaches? Also if someone in their circle (like a hobby group or something) ask them out, how they wanted to be asked out? And what are some good first date ideas? What are the things that you love to do on a first date?

Basically I have never asked someone this before. This will be my first time (if I do). So my palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy.....

is this weird for me 20 F to ask my bf 18 M ?

so i 20 F have a boyfriend 18 M, we’ve been together for like 1.2 years now. recently we celebrated valentine’s day, and this time i literally told him EXACTLY what to get me, like down to the details and even the budget.

the reason is because on my birthday he honestly disappointed me a lot with the gifts. i had dropped hints before but yeah… it just wasn’t it. so i didn’t want a repeat of that.

for context, his birthday comes before valentine’s. he told me what he wanted and i got him that. on my birthday he spent around 1.5k, so i told him i’d match that for his gifts because on his birthday i had actually spent almost double on him.

then he was like “can we just combine both budgets and you don’t get me anything for valentine’s, i don’t mind.” but i still didn’t feel right doing nothing, so for his birthday i got him multiple things — one main expensive gift, a card, and an expensive ass chocolate.

so yeah i did put in effort.

for valentine’s, i just wanted things to go the way i had planned, especially because i had clearly communicated it this time. also, and i know this sounds kinda shitty, but my friends are also in relationships and their boyfriends give them really nice gifts, and i didn’t want to feel… idk, left out or disappointed again.

i wanna know if this is normal or not ?

TL;DR:

i (18F) told my bf (19M) exactly what to get me for valentine’s because he disappointed me on my birthday, but even after clear communication and me putting in a lot of effort for his gifts, i still feel kinda let down and lowkey comparing it to what my friends got.

29M here my 4 yrs relationship ex called me after 3months.....

A little bit of context first

So my relationship started in my post graduation then 6 months we were together after that it was LDR. While she made friends used to hangout with them go watch a movie with a colleague and yeah i trusted her always though I told her not to go alone with any male wherever it is cause I know how males are and i didn't like that in a relationship. I was WFH so school friends only. It was my first relationship and it was her 3rd. So we were in deeply love atleast I was.

We decided to ready our parents for marriage but her caste was brahmin so of course they were orthodox. Hamari zaat upar ye vo all that bullshit. And she was unable to make them understand and was expecting me to go directly talk to her father. In that span she broke with me 2 times that they can't be convinced etc don't waste your time on me.I did talk to him multiple times on call and tried to convince him and all but yeah they didn't even agree to meet. Even my parents tried to convince him. But she was adamant that if u come directly to my house things will change. I tried to convince her that just get your father ready to meet at least tell him that I'm coming and all but she didn't. In that our distances grew because of this and she cheated.

I tried to accept her after that but couldn't trust her as she was taking me for granted wandering with her male friends going into the room for a movie giving me minimal time to talk etc. I did ask her already that u have colleagues whatever go in group but don't go into any male friend's room alone because I didn't like that and I was also not doing anything like having female friends and all I was fully committed to her. But she kept doing all those things in a relationship and after cheating when I was trying to fix things etc. Yeah I made a dumb mistake to accept her but I was blind in love and she put me in so much guilt that it seemed my fault. And she also told me that I did that to move on from you he manipulated me as I was depressed etc all that bullshit talk Because when I asked her to stop things like giving too much time to friends and not to us she said mean things to me.So i broke up. I blocked her from every platform but not her number.

1 month later.......

I was chatting with her friend and her topic came up i told her my side of the story because her friend said ki she didn't cheat on you u were not in relationship and all. You were on and off and yeah she was talking with arrange marriage dudes from her caste which her family was showing to her and me and that guy she cheated with. And she took her on conference and we fought i blamed her how she treated me last year. She blamed me etc so I blocked her for my peace of mind.

Fast forward to today.

It was my birthday yesterday I was missing her a lot had an anxiety attack and was scrolling through my phone and there came her call at 2 am with her company phone number that I didn't have on my block list. So i was so angry these months why she did this. she could have just blocked or broken up with me properly then could have done all those things. But when I picked up the call i couldn't say any bad words I just couldn't. In my mind I had a lot of anger I could have abused here and there. But I couldn't she was boasting that her company is good friends are good etc tarif and tarif life is going good I'm happy etc. I was just listening talked like a friend and at the end I wished her good life and just told her not to call me again.

Yeah I had a lot of anger in me but I just couldn't say any bad things to her. Maybe because my behaviour is like that I can't curse or abuse anyone.

Am I moving on ? Yes I'm trying to keep myself busy.

Am I glad I ended that relationship? Yes because what I was experiencing that I couldn't see because I was blind in love. 3 more people in our mutual who knows us properly told me to breakup because she is just using me and she is dominating me at every point of my life. And yes I was scared to do things that will trigger her in a relationship. Because I didn't want to fight.

Time will heal ? Yes I guess it will ...but I'm concerned about the trust I need to build because in future whoever comes into my life will also have friends male female so if I will be insecure that would be bad for relationship.

So this was my rant ...

How do I(21F) move on completely from this guy?

I’m dealing with this internal conflict that I can’t seem to get out of.There’s this guy I got really attached to over time, but realistically, a relationship was never possible. We have a 6.5 yrs age gap, we’re in completely different life stages (he’s working and closer to marriage age, I’m still in college), long distance, cultural differences and even some of our future preferences don’t align. For example, he wants to eventually live with his parents although he is working somewhere else as of now and I’ve always been unsure about that because of things I’ve seen in my own family. So yeah, logically, it just doesn’t fit.

He’s also been clear that he doesn’t want a relationship with me because of these difficult circumstances. Basically saying we don't have a future and that he never let himself feel more cuz of this. At most, it’s just friendship from his side. I've also had fights with him for replying late at times(he has really long work hours). But emotionally… I’m still stuck. I still want him despite knowing all this. I even catch myself imagining a parallel universe where none of these circumstances existed and we could’ve worked. And then I have to remind myself that that version isn’t real. I'm also in a girls college and kinda lonely in my college city so that makes things worse.

What makes it more worse is how things turned out between us. I got very emotionally involved and anxious, and I ended up overwhelming him a lot like texting too much, reacting strongly when I didn’t get responses, etc. I can see that now and I feel really guilty about it. We are normally talking rn but I’m stuck between knowing this isn’t right for me, missing him and wanting him anyway

and feeling guilty for how I acted and hurt that I wasn’t really chosen. It’s like my brain and heart are in two completely different places. How do you actually move on when you know it won’t work but you still feel so attached?

28M, relationship vs family pressure. feel like I’m losing it

writing this in the middle of a weird panic spiral so sorry if this is all over the place

i’m 28, turning 29 this year. been in a relationship for a couple of years now. we both always knew our families are very different and marriage would be complicated

now my parents have suddenly gone full speed. they want me married next year but want to start looking right now. rishtas, meeting girls, people coming home, all of it. they’ve been good parents, but they’re stubborn as fuck and not really listening

i spoke to my girlfriend about telling our parents this year. my thinking was, even if we marry next year, at least we start the conversation now but she’s not ready. she’s dealing with her own career stuff, wants this year for herself, and i genuinely get that. her fear is if things don’t work out after telling her parents, they’ll immediately start pushing her into something else. and she doesn’t want that

my parents on the other hand won’t even agree to wait. they’ve already started talking to families. someone might literally come home in a day or two to see me

i feel stuck in the middle of two timelines that don’t match at all

i’ve thought about just rejecting everyone my parents bring, buying time, but how long does that even work?

haven’t slept properly. can’t focus on work. constant anxiety. it just feels like everything is closing in at once

i don’t even know what i’m asking here. maybe just needed to get this out

Should i 18F break up with my bf 18M because i dont feel like im in a real relationship with him?

For context I am 18[F] and so is my bf 18[M]. We have been dating for a little over 1.5 years and honestly atp i dont know what to do. I really like him sure,but things havent been great bw us at all.

A few months into our relationship he got caught at home (really strict parents) they took away his phone for a long time and we would rarely communicate, he would text me from friends' phone or he would sneak his parents phone and try to text. The whole getting caught fiasco has happened several times and as a result he was grounded a lot of times, we couldnt meet or text. These incidents were still fine but towards the beginning of this year his parents started monitoring him even more, they took his phone, his fathers spare phone, his laptop everything. He couldnt even sneak them out so we would text once a day and ofc he never stuck around his msg would be "hey im studying i love u eat your meals" and ofc i would reply within a few mins and he would only see this when he came online the next day so send the exact same msg. It was really hard for the both of us especially for me i would not handle waiting it used to drive me CRAZY.

We had a fight and he said things would get better soon, cut to march-april this is the time where we go off to universities so we are busy preparing for the uni exams. He got his phone back and for a while things were fine, and then he said he couldnt come out to meet me i was like okay thats fine atleast we can video chat everyday and that happened for a few days and out of nowhere he tells me his parents told him he cannot stay up late anymore and took his laptop and phone during the night so ofc no vc or texts. Oh and did i mention he can only call me when he is outside not at home that is also fine.
No we had planned a few dates he was supposed to come to the public library and we could sneak off from there and atleat 8 out of 10 times he couldnt make it. Either his mother didnt allow him to go to the library or he had to go out with them or he was travelling or he had to spend time with his family.

I put up with this for a whole year, on april 12th 2026 we had planned a cute date and we planned this towards the end of march so like 2-3 weeks ago and today he tells me he cannot make it cause he has to travel with his family. But i cannot do this anymore i literally cannot expect anything from him we will start our long distance relationship in a few months so I wanted to spend as much time together as possible and ofc we cant make it ofc he cannot call me and did i mention his habit of disappearing for hours together and i dont mean 2-3 hours, one day he disappeared for 7 hours in the evening. When i asked him about it he said he was cooking and eating and was spending time with family downstairs, mind you he was away from 7pm to 2am if this was during the day i would have understood.
I cannot do this anymore i cannot wait around i cannot expect anything from him it never happens and i end up getting hurt. But i really dont have the courage to leave him i will be terribly lonely, this isnt about love he loves me and i love him. I really dont wanna disrespect his parents but seriously ive had enough he is freaking 18!!! not their 5 year old child anymore and even he doesnt dare argue with them

I have tried breaking up several times and each time he comes begging me not to go, i dont wanna leave him not because i dont love him but because he has virtually no freedom and for how long can i be an understanding gf. Do i have basic needs and expectations from a guy i love IT HAS BEEN 1.5 YEARS not a few months

i dont know what to do pls help me
I m sorry if this was too long

M35 getting divorced is complicated getting married is not, why ?

M35 Marriage is a huge life decision with legal and financial consequences, yet the process is quick and simple. Divorce, on the other hand, is slow, expensive, and full of safeguards.

Why not apply some of that same seriousness upfront? Things like waiting periods, mandatory counseling, or clear warnings about long-term implications could help people make more informed decisions before getting married.

Not to discourage it—but to make it more intentional.

Would that reduce impulsive marriages, or just make things unnecessarily difficult?

To avoid future hassle, spread awareness upfront.

(M20)modern relationships and expectations-Trying to understand the rules here?

I’ve been thinking about something that doesn’t get discussed honestly enough, especially in modern dating and arranged setups.

Equality at home - widely accepted

We often talk about equality in relationships, and I agree with that. If both partners are working, then sharing responsibilities at home makes complete sense. Cooking, cleaning, daily chores - all of that should ideally be a shared effort. That part feels fair and most people seem to agree on it.

Finances - where things start to shift

Where things begin to feel less consistent is when finances come into the picture. Even in dual-income situations, there is often an expectation that the man should still take on a larger share of financial responsibility, whether it is rent, major expenses, or even everyday spending like outings.

So on one side, there is an expectation of equality in effort, but on the other, there can be imbalance in financial contribution. That contrast is what feels confusing.

“Roommate vs partner” argument

One argument I often hear is that if everything is split 50/50, then it resembles more of a roommate arrangement than a partnership. I understand the intent behind this view, but it also feels like it is applied differently depending on the situation.

If a man brings up financial sharing, it can sometimes be interpreted as avoiding responsibility. At the same time, equal contribution in household work is widely accepted and encouraged.

Modern relationships also already lean toward independence in many ways. Couples often choose to live separately for personal space and freedom, prioritize individual choices, and maintain independence in daily life.

So it sometimes feels inconsistent to emphasize “partnership” mainly in financial expectations, while other aspects already follow a more independent structure. And when someone tries to set financial boundaries, it can sometimes shift from a practical discussion to a judgment of intent or character.

Pregnancy argument - valid, but situational

Another common point is pregnancy and childbirth, which is completely valid. It is a significant physical and emotional experience, and the support required during that phase is undeniable. In that situation, it makes sense for the man to take on a larger financial and practical role.

However, not every relationship is in that stage at all times. Many couples delay having children, and some choose not to have children at all. So applying that reasoning universally across all stages may not always fit every context.

A more balanced approach could be that during pregnancy and early childcare, the man takes on a greater financial responsibility, uses savings if needed, and provides additional support. Outside of that phase, especially in a dual-income setup, expecting a more balanced financial contribution can also seem reasonable.

The bigger picture

I think the core issue here is consistency. It can sometimes feel like traditional expectations have not fully disappeared, but instead have been combined with modern expectations. Rather than replacing older roles, they appear to coexist in a layered way.

At the same time, there are also expectations from men that are often less openly discussed. Beyond finances, men are frequently expected to provide stability, take initiative, handle pressure, and remain emotionally composed during difficult situations. There is also an expectation to be consistently understanding and accommodating - managing emotional ups and downs, being patient during emotional fluctuations, keeping effort alive in the relationship, and often maintaining a certain level of attentiveness and care.

Individually, none of these expectations are necessarily unreasonable. However, when they all come together along with financial and household responsibilities, it can sometimes feel like a disproportionate set of expectations on one side.

There is also another interesting point regarding traditional practices. Dowry, for example, is rightfully illegal and socially discouraged, and expectations from in-laws are also generally considered inappropriate. That is something I fully agree with. At the same time, in modern expectations, men are still often assumed to be the ones who should bring long-term financial stability into the marriage.

On the other hand, assets or inheritance received by women are often viewed as individual and separate rather than something that is necessarily shared in the same way. Again, this raises questions around consistency in how expectations are applied, rather than supporting outdated practices.

That is where this sense of imbalance comes from for many people.

TLDR: Equality is widely accepted in household responsibilities, but financial expectations and broader relationship roles can sometimes feel less consistent. It can appear that traditional expectations and modern expectations are being combined, which creates a perception of uneven distribution of responsibility.

[30F] I found the right guy, but I can’t fight my family — what would you do?

Do I continue something knowing I might not be able to fully stand up for it later? Or do I step back now to avoid deeper hurt for both of us?

I’m in a pretty complicated situation and could really use some outside perspective.

I was seeing someone I genuinely liked and saw a future with. Honestly, everything else with him feels right — compatibility, values, the way we understand each other — it just works. Things were serious enough that marriage was being considered. But when it came to families getting involved, mine refused to even talk to his family because of caste differences and kundali mismatch.

They went ahead and arranged my marriage with someone else. I tried to go along with it, but that didn’t work out either (ironically, kundalis didn’t match there too).

After that ended, I reached out to the guy I actually liked. He’s still there, still willing to try, but now everything feels… uncertain. There’s emotional baggage, fear of things going wrong again, and the same family hurdles still exist.

The hard part is — I don’t think I’m in a position where I can go against my family. That’s what’s making this even more confusing. I care about him, and everything else feels right with him, but I also know the reality I’m operating in.

Now I’m trying to figure out:

•	Do I continue something knowing I might not be able to fully stand up for it later?

•	Or do I step back now to avoid deeper hurt for both of us?

I don’t want to make a decision driven purely by emotion and regret it later. At the same time, I don’t want to let go of something real just because it’s difficult.

Would really appreciate thoughts from people who’ve been in similar situations or have a more objective view.

My (21F) boyfriend (21M) went on a group dinner

I (21F) need some perspective about my boyfriend (21M).

He recently started an internship at IIT, and over the past ~1.5 months I’ve noticed a change in his behavior. He used to be pretty introverted (like me), but now he seems much more outgoing. I get that new environments can bring that out in people, so I’m trying to be open-minded—but something about the situation is making me uneasy.

His intern group is mostly girls (around 4–5), and he’s the only guy in that group. He did tell them he has a girlfriend (me), which I appreciated. But whenever we talk, he constantly refers to “the group”—like they go to the IIT café together during breaks, plan things together, and recently even went out for dinner after work.

There are apparently 2–3 other guys (not interns, but contract employees) who sometimes join them, but whenever I ask directly who’s there, he tends to answer vaguely like “the group” instead of clearly saying who exactly was present. For example, when I asked if the girls were at the dinner, he didn’t directly answer and just said the group was there.

I don’t want to be controlling or insecure, and I understand that coworkers hanging out together is normal—especially in internships. But the way he avoids giving clear answers sometimes makes me feel a bit uneasy.

Am I overthinking this, or is it reasonable to feel a bit cautious here? How would you approach this situation?

Me and my sister had planned my mom’s birthday and for some reason mom and dad fought and we ended up doing nothing for her birthday. We didn’t even cut a cake.

I am really upset now. They are always fighting or abusing each other. When I was a kid my dad used to hit my mom too, that has stopped now. But the cussing and all continues.

I’m so so done. They are pathetic and miserable.

My younger sister got really sad too because we were planning from a long while now. Now my mother is trying to act normal and I am feeling really guilty now. Wtf do I do?

my friend (20f) changed sides while conveying my (20f) msgs to the guy who blocked me.

for context, i wanna say that im on his side too, he is two years older than us, and i know why he blocked me cause i really overwhelmed with all my anxious texts, like i know it was fault.

i had just gotten blocked and i was really overwhelmed and it was unbearable to me, she was a really close friend of mine and i reached out to her and she agreed to convey 2-3 of my messages and when they were literally in a conversation and this is clearly so important to me she told me "i cannot do this, i hav my birthday in 2 days i hav not planned anything i dont even hav time to eat" i respected that and even told her she can ask me for help for her birthday planning.

then after a few hours at 2am, she herslef sent me two screenshots of her conversation with him where she was talking about how exhausting this is, and she told me in all caps that she is done being the messenger and after that i just asked her for the rest of the conversation but she refused.

i get that i messaged her a lot about it and that overwhelmed her but i was really anxious and she was like one of my closests friends, i thought i could be honest about that with her. and i respect it that she sided with him the whole story, i know i hav overwhelmed him a lot by my attachment and i side with him too.

i didnt talk about this at all on her birthday, after that i just politely asked her for the conversation, nothing else, which turned into a very overwhelming conversation, then she complained to him to ask me to stop.

he told me he has lost all respect for me now because of this. but was it justified for her to gatekeep the conversation even tho she doesn't owe it to me now that we aren't friend?

Need Advice Me M(28) and Girl 20 years old.

I seriously need advice, this girl 20 once was going through a bad phase of life i had helped her during that phase .Later I got busy in my work and diing my things , she used to text me though once or twice in a week. And one day suddenly she started saying she likes me and proposed to me. I tried to tell her it wont work b/w us we have a big age gap diff and also i did not see her in that way. but somehow she kept putting effort and After 4 month I said yes and then we started talking continuously. And suddenly one day she said she wanted to end this , i was really shocked and lil hurt. But i just let her go peacefully as I am mature enough to not create any drama. but It has been a year since she keep texting once in a while for some random haal chal .

but recently again she texted saying she badly miss me and all.. i have told i font trust you. but still idk what to do .I fear if my previous feelings or moment comes back

I think sometimes it's tough to be a good and kind person. you never know when ppl are using you.
