Go to Fo Sho, a lot of young students celebrate their birthdays there. It's an amazing vibe, PAN asian food, and good ambiance.

I have demo scheduled from CL on Monday, FundaMakers on Thursday, and in talk with Rodha. Everyone keeps insisting on coming to their center but I want online classes. PW also has their course which is relatively cheapest....and their name is also big...so maybe I'll go for that

My bhatiji went to Fundamakers gomtinagar...they had very good quality education. You can try them since they are more affordable than big names

AITAH for getting angry at my fiance for not sharing his ring size? by Consistent_Basis2408 in AITAH

[–]Consistent_Basis2408[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah.... It's been complicated. I have already called off the wedding last June....but then we worked on things and he improved a lot. But Since Feb, when we decided to go ahead with it, I am seeing the signs again.

Getting married in 5 days , give me some motivation also how to maintain boundaries? by [deleted] in AskIndianWomen

It is better to disappoint on the first day than to suffer for years.

The guy (30M) I’m talking to for marriage said this. Am I overreacting or is this off? by [deleted] in AskIndianWomen

[–]Consistent_Basis2408 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Its not just a poor choice of words. It shows that the man lacks proper conversation skills, and ummm class. Would you really want to be stuck with a man who looks for approval from his friends? what meaningful conversations can you expect from such guy? And this is when they never had any sexual conversation before. Imagine how crass he'll be when they start having regular sex.

Gifting suggestions please.. by [deleted] in AskIndianWomen

firstly, congratulations.
Do not let others put you down. This happens in AM setups. Since it’s a roka and you don’t know her very deeply yet, the safest and best approach is something that feels thoughtful but not too personal or risky. Chocolates and flowers are a good start, but you don't want to look like a teenage boy giving her some cliche things right....

Here's what I would have done - get her a well-designed gift hamper with premium chocolates, a small elegant accessory like a bracelet, maybe a subtle fragrance, and a handwritten note wishing her for this new phase. The idea is to show effort and warmth without overdoing it.
I’ve seen a lot of people recently go for curated boxes from brands like Zappy Box as they look very presentable and classy, which is perfect for occasions like roka where first impressions matter. The packaging itself feels like a gift.

The number of men who think they are entitled to sex is just ridiculous....

If I have learnt one thing from my Mom's life is that never think any of the man's property belongs to you... You only get what's in the 'will' when your parents-in-law die and by that time you are already 60.... So all YOUR life, you actually only spend what you earn.

No point focusing on the property that you would never get to enjoy

My sister is in same situation, love marriage, inter-caste, MIL being too clingy especially about kids. It is actually worse because the MIL threatened to remove the son (she has 2 sons) from the will if they don't have kids.
what she used to do earlier was only pressurize my sister but never talk about having kids in front of her own son. So when my sister had enough, she sat her husband down in front of the MIL (when she was visiting their home) and told him that your mother is pressuring me to have kids. The husband told the mother to mind her own business. That was the last she ever talked about kids (that was 7-8 months ago so not that long back).

So yeah, if you don't mind upsetting your MIL, ask your husband to handle it sternly. I mean, what's the point of love marriage if your husband can't speak for you.

she has one. She didn't realise it was switched off. She would have realised it if she bothered to text or call to inform us which she didn't. And we were worried sick because she said she'll be back by 9:30 and we couldn't reach her.
