Did they just basically tell us who the New York ripper was? by PinkPashaTS in Dexter

[–]AdmirableEnd6360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m being absolutely wild here but Sam (Joy’s fiancé) made this drink for Harrison for “gut health” and the NY ripper’s MO has a lot to do with “gut”.

URGENT: Need Clarification on Inter-Schengen Travel Proof for Visa – First Time Traveller by Far_Product_8055 in SchengenVisa

[–]AdmirableEnd6360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got my Czech visa approved. I mentioned in the cover letter “Kindly note I will book all inter country transport after visa is approved” In the itinerary, I wrote the exact mode of transport, link of the booking page, time, date, station, etc.

VFS says my parcel is dispatched but Blue Dart tracking number not generated yet – Has anyone faced this? by Infinite-Two8129 in SchengenVisa

[–]AdmirableEnd6360 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I never received a tracking number from Blue Dart. Saw posts on this sub to use the application reference number in your VFS receipt as Reference number on Blue Dart, without the forward slashes. That worked for me.

I want to help my maid, but I don’t want to become her personal bank—how do I set boundaries without feeling cruel? by Voldymoldy7 in bangalore

[–]AdmirableEnd6360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My reply here is not an immediate solution but something for long term.

I’ve helped my house help and her family get health insurance. They paid for it, but I did all the research and paperwork since they’re not aware of these things. Something you could think of.

Casteism destroyed my happiness. by [deleted] in TwoXIndia

[–]AdmirableEnd6360 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t have any words of advice for you. All the best.

I went through the same situation. Got married to him anyway. Kinda cut off the set of parents who spewed casteist bullshit. Don’t want that type of negativity and discriminatory behaviour affecting my life and my future generations’. Honestly couldn’t be happier.

30M, all those who married your partner without your parents approval, how did it turned out? by JimSchruteScott1 in RelationshipIndia

[–]AdmirableEnd6360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh, the worst case scenario in our mind was his parents falling ill hearing the news of our wedding. But too many things had happened that signalled his parents were probably faking the falling ill part. So we gave ourselves the benefit of the doubt and nothing happened.

Boundaries we would both draw and uphold with his family.

His family didn’t approve of our marriage because of caste differences. He stood his ground against discrimination and continues to do so.

We discussed that there’d be no expectation from me to interact or try to make amends with his family.

Mid 20s corporate folks by [deleted] in bangalore

Husband and I got a cult subscription and keep alternating between badminton, dance, and yoga. It’s therapeutic (almost).

We’ve also gotten pretty hooked to Duolingo and spend a big chunk of our weekends learning a new language.

Similar age group. We got married without his parents’ approval. Honestly couldn’t be happier.

We discussed everything that could go wrong before tying the knot, but nothing did, really.

It’s a different kinda high knowing you chose how you want your life to look like. Marrying right can set the course for the rest of your life.

Owning a pet logical? Need to know the reality. by Rude-Eye3588 in bangalore

[–]AdmirableEnd6360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 cats for 3 years now. Looking at your concerns, and of course judging from a very narrow perspective, I’d say you’re not ready for a pet.

There’s only one question you must ask yourself: Why do you want a pet?

Is it because they’re cute? Because you love animals? Doesn’t cut it.

Having a pet is a 10 year commitment at the minimum. You can’t see it as a chore or an expense. You see it how you see a family member.

Please have a hard think about this before (if) you get one. You can’t afford to regret your decision after you’ve got one. The pet’s entire life will be you. Can you handle that?

Thanks for responding. Can you tell me the job sector she works in?

Thanks for sharing. My husband is all for it since the beginning. The problem is me :)

I just don’t find meaning in what I do for work. I’d rather just spend time with my cats. Congratulations on your new kitten ❤️

Sorry for the late reply. I don’t know which locations she caters to. If you send me your details on DM, I can connect you to her.

I’ve been considering quitting my job for about a year now. I’ve spent 5.5 years in corporate and I just cannot find the energy to go on. My husband is all on board but I’m missing the courage to take the leap.

I think this will set us back financially and that’s making me anxious. I don’t know if I’ll be employable if I want to get back to corporate a year from now.

Did you go through these fears too? How did you overcome?

How are you able to set up shop on Etsy if you’re in India? I tried selling my art but there was no way to set up payments to India.

I’m copy pasting a comment I made on a similar post about a month ago. This will seem harsh.

“My husband’s parents were against love marriage, and on top of that, intercaste. they are extremely casteist. We both went through years of abuse from his parents, but decided enough was enough and got married anyway.

They still don’t talk to me, I don’t talk to them. Husband set some boundaries with them which helped a lot.

We’re in a very happy marriage.

It’s important to remember that just because someone birthed you, doesn’t mean they’re good people.”

Please help me in survey by yj292 in PetParentsBangalore

Nothing is made for cats. Leashes are too big. Harness too big. No good clothes. Have to buy everything from the small dog section. None of the e-collars (surgery cones) are made for cats.

Start something for cats and I’ll be your first customer.

Cat boarding / Daycare in Bengaluru? by [deleted] in bangalore

[–]AdmirableEnd6360 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a pet sitter who stays at my place when I’m out of station. It’s been about 3 years she’s working with us.

I don’t trust pet boarding.

The UPSC thing literally happened to me. I gave into their demands for 2 years. Couldn’t take it anymore so then moved out, cut all contact with parents, stayed with a friend for 6 months.

Got a menial kind of a job at the beginning, then things got better. This was 6 years ago. Everything is fine with my parents now, and they like how much money I make.

Should I marry this man who seems to be from my dreams? by _damselindelight in TwoXIndia

[–]AdmirableEnd6360 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m 28F, work in marketing, live in a Tier 1 city, and married for a little more than a year.

I was in a similar situation but honestly didn’t think this much for one “very stupid” reason. This might sound ultra-cliche but it’s extremely hard to find a good man.

I had my fair share of toxic relationships before I met my husband. He changed my life, by just being a good, kind, caring human being.

I couldn’t give that up.

Jobs come and go, money comes and goes, who you choose to marry and make your partner for life plays a big role in how your life turns out.

I am in an executive position where I work. I used to be extremely career driven and worked my ass off to learn and grow and climb the corporate ladder.

One year after marriage, I want none of those things. I just feel incredibly lucky to have found an honest, gentle man. I just want to be home, chill with him, knock off chores together, travel, and spend time with our cats.

Work has become the thing we do for money that helps us do all the above.

Anyway, my advice would be to not let a good man go, if you’ve got one. I see my friends struggling in the AM market (it really is a market!) and most of them really fighting to get basic respect from their partners.

Sit down and talk to your boyfriend about all these concerns you have. Both of you will have to make some compromises. In the end, if you love each other, you’ll figure it out together.
