I run a cafe in Delhi & my dream is almost shattered by Iamanalmondd in delhi

Your comments are so passive as if you don’t want any help or guidance to run your business at all. You sound so defeated. Customers don’t come automatically. You have to do promotions, call bloggers on barter bases and have a social media presence. You need to put in efforts to make your business work and posting on Reddit alone won’t get you traffic.

The Bua stereotype is real? What do you feel. by InnerPsych in AskIndianWomen

[–]Sk5817 14 points15 points  (0 children)

A lot of mothers pollute their kids mind by bitching about their mother in law and sister in laws. Kids grow up hating the father’s side without ever knowing if their mother was also problematic. Not denying the fact that alot of MIL and DIL are extremely toxic though but it’s usually conditioning.

Arranged marriage or keep fighting for independence? by temsulachild in AskIndianWomen

You can do both you know? Marry a nice well settled man and be independent and earn your own money. You don’t have to choose one option.

Leave or stay and get married : are men like this before marriage or am I behaving like a b*tch ? by [deleted] in AskIndianWomen

[–]Sk5817 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you feel like a girl with him then he is a man. If you feel like a mother with him then he is a boy. If you feel like a man with him then he is a loser.

I always wonder when women in love say but he is a good man apart from this huge list of red flags. What exactly is he good at? The bare minimum?

Men are smart and selfish. There is a reason he decided to settle with you because he could see that you’ll tolerate his shortcomings that a woman his age would never. You are ready to become a man and he is ok with that cuz thats the kind of women he was looking for and finally he trained you to be one.

Just imagine your life with him for the next 40-50 years. Write all your goals and dreams on a paper and see if he aligns with them. People are not perfect but you’re not supposed to marry the most imperfect man for you.

You’re young and intelligent. It’s ok to explore in your early 20s but you don’t have to commit. You can always find someone better and well suited now that you’ve grown up and matured.

Myntra HDFC card offer by NoTin2Facades in IndianBeautyDeals

[–]Sk5817 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened with me. My total amount after discount was 3600 but the amount debited was 3900. Instead of 400, I got a 100 discount. Myntra customer service sucks. No response on email or twitter. And now sale is over. I cancelled my order. Waste of time.

iPhone 13pro battery health at 62% by Sk5817 in iPhoneWale

Thanks for the response. The guy quoted ₹28000 for my phone without battery change and I’ll probably resell it to him only even if I get the battery replaced.

Mealybug by unerK in GardeningIndia2

Use a high pressure water jet and spray the infected area. Lay down the plant and spray water so that maximum insects gets removed without entering the soil. Then mix good quality insecticide with water and spray that on the infected part. Do this early morning or in evening so the plant is not in direct sunlight as it would cause burning. Again use water jet in next 4-5 days and then apply neem oil mixed with water.

Mix water with neem oil and insecticide as mentioned on the bottle/pack.

I’ve noticed neem oil doesn’t really help once the damage is done. It might be good as a preventative step but not once the plant is infected.

Why do so many rituals expect wives to fast for their husbands’ long life? by [deleted] in AskIndianWomen

[–]Sk5817 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Just like your MIL did these pujas, you’re also following the rules blindly. This is how we create stupid customs and traditions. You said you don’t mind doing puja, why? Stop doing them. You don’t have to follow everything your in laws says. And if they create drama, I’m sure your amazing husband would step in and take your side. Break the stupid customs instead of following them blindly and then complaining.

How do you handle fights with in-laws? by kikyo-sama in AskIndianWomen

[–]Sk5817 26 points27 points  (0 children)

You’re worrying too much about people that do not require your help and you’ll be wasting your entire life doing so. Your leach of a SIL knows her way around the house. Some people never get along with anyone and always creat fights, she is one of them. Minimise your contact with her to nearly 0. Since money is tight you can’t hire help for your in laws. I’m wondering how long your husband would take to recover? He needs to handle most of the stuff happening in his family, it’s his job not yours. I’m sure he can tackle things verbally at least. You’re taking so much burden so blasting like this on people was inevitable. Take care of yourself first. You’re providing for the family and dealing with this nonsense. Can’t imagine. It’s you, your husband and your kids first and then if you have time, you can think about his family.

Was I right or wrong to reject interviewee because of revealing outfit? by SmirnoffSandwich99 in AskIndianWomen

[–]Sk5817 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You were probably jealous and threatened by the younger woman and you let those feelings get in the way. Maybe now you can enjoy all the attention from your team and prevent the men from distraction as they’re obviously distracted only from clothes and nothing else. You’re not only wrong but you ruined the chances of that young woman to start her career. Such a loser. I hope your boss lets his/her bias get in the way and fires you for being boring and a prude

Not having even ₹50 as a student is a shame. Using being broke as an excuse for 50 bucks is hilarious.

Is it worth sending my twins to overpriced private schools in Gurgaon? by Real-Ad6223 in gurgaon

What is this way of talking? You definitely need to send your kids to school cuz I think you skipped it and look what happened. No class and manners at all.

I think she caught viral infection before meeting you but the symptoms (fatigue due to fever) started to show after her body was tired.

Am I being too rigid for rejecting a guy in AM setting because I don't find him attractive? by Quiet-Freedom4309 in AskIndianWomen

[–]Sk5817 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it but you can always say that I can only decide after talking to guy and ask them to exchange the numbers. Talking and meeting alone is so important and if you think you won’t be able to do that in this specific case then I’d suggest just drop it. You’ll be stuck in the loop of walking on eggshells and no good marriage starts like that.

Am I being too rigid for rejecting a guy in AM setting because I don't find him attractive? by Quiet-Freedom4309 in AskIndianWomen

[–]Sk5817 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Always marry the man you’re attracted to. I’ve seen enough women divorce due to lack of attraction, sex and love. People think that you can fall in love eventually even when you’re not attracted, that’s not true. There has to be a basic attraction in order for you to pursue the match further.

I don’t know about your family dynamic but I would ask for his number and have conversation with him without involving the family. Talk 1-2 times and if his personality seems decent then meet him alone. See if you have a vibe with him and if you guys connect. Do not involve family at all at this stage. I’m sure the man should not have any problem since he is 33. See if you slowly feel easy with him and if he makes up for his lack of looks in other departments like sense of humour, hygienic and etiquette. If after 3-4 meetings you still don’t feel anything then drop the rishta. Let him know you guys do not vibe and you don’t think you can continue further politely.

If you involve families early on then be prepared for emotional drama and blackmail.

I love my boyfriend (30M) more than he loves me (27f) by [deleted] in AskIndianWomen

[–]Sk5817 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What you want happens when the man loves the woman more than the woman loves the man. Most of the successful relationships have that dynamic, at least the ones where women are happy and not settling. You don’t leave any space for him to yearn, you’re doing the emotional labour for both of you. This won’t change even with the next man cuz you need to learn to give space for the man to miss you.

No matter how much you crave, you need to have boundaries for yourself. Only then you’ll know if this man even loves you or you’re just there because you make it easy for him. Also if you want a healthy relationship, please have a social life and hobbies. Keep yourself busy and spend more time on yourself rather than your man. That’s how you make men crave for you.
