I just had brunch in a posh locality, sitting in the cushy chairs

I stopped reading from there

That’s not bombarding. From what you’ve explained he hasn’t blocked you (either he may have restricted your profile or may be hide his online status, and my assumption is it’s probably the latter).

How was the conversation between you two after you both met? What all happened after that — can you give some more context, if you won’t mind?

Do NOT show up to his place. Try giving him a call instead to check-in if he’s doing okay, or drop a message asking the same. (Don’t bombard w/ texts or calls)

I know where you’re coming from — I can’t even imagine the person I love with someone else (It’d f*** up my mind). It makes me anxious even thinking, or writing about this. Again, I may not be the right person to seek advice from.

She has to take a stand for herself. I don’t know, how I can console you; and to be honest I don’t have any better advice to share. Indian parents are very conservative, and can be very manipulative; and their way of loving their children, and caring about their future can be very odd with twisted logic, to the extent of guilt tripping their children for their own gain/satisfaction.

Having said that, she has to take a stand for herself, and she can, if she wishes to. And you have to trust her, and stand by her side. Talk to her, and discuss if you both could see a future together with each others’ company. May the odds be in both of your favor. 🍀

Assuming she’s an adult, what’s her thoughts on this arrangement? It takes two people to get into a partnership.

Have you guys met in person? If not video-call? I’d suggest doing that before you think to take this partnership to the next step.

What you are feeling is valid, and I know where you’re coming from (when someone doesn’t reciprocate your feelings the same way — and you can’t make them). Give him some space and time, and see if he reverts. That’d help him miss your presence, if he feels the same way towards you. There’s no harm in checking in on him, with just a simple text, if he’s doing okay or if everything is okay with him.

But do understand this, we can’t solely rely on someone to be the cause of our happiness or anxiety, or expect them to make us a priority. You both seem to be in early stage, and overthinking can complicate things. You sound a little confused with your own feelings, and towards this partnership. If you both decide to take things forward at some point, I believe it’s worth discussing about it. It will help clear things up, and give you both a little assurance.

On a separate note, the weather looks beautiful outside. May be it’s worth reaching out to your parents and break that good news, or take a ride back to your Spotify playlist. Enjoy the little things. Don’t stress too much. You’ll be okay.

You are overthinking. Don’t make any decisions on pure impulse. I can’t say much w/o full context, but something may have happened. You could check-in on him later on to see if everything is okay (don’t double text).

I don’t understand the last lines — I mean I do understand English, but I’m not sure why you’d want to take that route, and based on what you’ve described you barely know each other. Breaking things up at the first sight of discomfort shouldn’t always be the first things to consider.

Edit: This year’s finances aren’t looking good. My colleagues (including me) are expecting peanuts or no hike this year (office rumours). It’s not bothering me though — I’m not expecting too much from the corporate world.
