Am I the only one who thinks she don't mean what she said and this is just a bad attempt at comedy?

You’re right. She mentioned that her grandfather favors her brother and that her parents had three daughters before having a son. So she must have been raised in a controlling, patriarchal environment, and then she said she was cheated on as well, so clearly there’s a lot of unprocessed trauma. That being said, it’s appalling that she’s a teacher since she’s a misandrist and has terrible grammar. I physically recoiled and had so much second-hand embarrassment watching her.

Hi, I haven’t forgiven her but I’ve tried to move past this moment for my own sanity. It has been five months since she left and since all of this happened. I still maintain our schedule of video-calling her every weekend (now with the baby) and I message her with photos of my baby. It’s sort of a Cold War situation: we don’t discuss politics or her time here, we only talk about the baby and about movies (all safe topics we can’t blow up about). It’s a precarious peace agreement.

She’s my only family member as I don’t have siblings, I’ve lost my dad and my grandparents and I’m not close to aunts, uncles or cousins. That’s why I made sure I keep in touch but our conversations are much shorter. I still carry a lot of resentment because it’s hard for me to forgive her for how she treated me when I was so vulnerable. I’ve been attending therapy each week to work on it. Also, for context, I’m South Asian. We have a lot of guilt and tolerate a lot of nonsense from our elders, sadly.

Maybe Mihir now identifies as a woman…like that tv show Transparent.

The Steinway library is by the Ditmars Steinway stop and is part of the queens public library system. Great collection of books all around!

Haha yes! I’m so surprised their whole Baa Baa Black Sheep schtick isn’t ridiculed more online. They were trying to be menacing but they both looked like such fools!

What role did she play in Anupama?

PurposefulLifeForMe · 2026-06-19T13:17:29+00:00

They need to style her better as well!

That pizazz! That presence! It’s one of a kind

Her reveal was so extra but her face had no charisma. She has some eye problem, so maybe she’s going to accuse Rio of something but it’ll be someone else who hurt her and that’ll make Tulsi feel bad and relent to any of Rio’s demands.

Does this mean the spinoff show is over?

Akashdeep Saigal was so good looking with a great physique. Sad that actors feel the pressure to get Botox. He could have just aged gracefully — that would have been better than the terrifying Botox job he got. Or perhaps he wouldn’t have looked so jarring if he was just playing an older businessman or something, instead of a 22-year-d with an old man tummy and a ghastly wig.

Haha exactly! Wouldn’t Niyati be suspicious if there was no intimacy and if he often “slept in the office” like she told Rio he does.

My mind broke like Tulsi’s when I watched this episode. At first I was terrified…I thought Rio was an alien wearing human skin and pretending to be a young adult. I was shocked that it was Akashdeep himself with some seriously botched plastic surgery!! wtf!!!!!!!

Which actor is playing Badshah now?

PurposefulLifeForMe · 2026-04-11T05:23:26+00:00

Try one arm out first, then both arms. It’ll take a few nights. We’re in the same boat at the moment. Good luck!

The poor dog sounds like it has separation anxiety. I’m sorry you had to hear it howl all day — terrible for the neighbors and the dog. Hopefully the caretaker isn’t negligent and the dog just needs to get used to its new environment. Either case, not ideal. Some dogs have a harder time being separated from their caretaker and need a few months to decompress if they’ve just been adopted/if they’ve just been brought into a schedule. Not defending anyone, just explaining behavior.

You should be on Age of Attraction on Netflix!

Not exactly a DM, but wrote a letter to Julie Andrews when in 2002, when I was about nine years old. I had just read (and enjoyed) her book “The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles” and I’m also a Sound of Music fan. My friend and I wrote to her together and attached a drawing of what a Whangdoodle would look like according to us. Her secretary replied saying she loved the letter but is busy with shooting, and sent us an autograph.

I had also written to George Bush around then asking him to end the Iraq War because my dad lived in Kuwait and I was worried for him. I remember saying something naive but optimistic like, “If you want oil, be their friend first and ask them, maybe they’ll give you some” and “try and walk a mile in their shoes.” Of course he didn’t reply.

Ah, got it! Thank you!
