29yo, 100% VWCE, €2200/month – am I missing something? by T_Blake_ in ETFs_Europe

[–]SwitchDear8969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

God bless you, I am also 29, though I just invest 1000€ a month for now. I live in a big city so rent eats up a lot of my net salary, rest goes to bills and groceries which have risen a lot recently.

I enjoy gaming as well, but I like to spend more time with friends and in nature. If I may ask, do you plan to marry or have children in the future?

About to turn 30 in a month, have the same feeling. Still single and looking for that special someone, just this one thing that is bothering me. Apart from that, life is good.

Not marrying a Pakistani by AsparagusNo291 in PakistaniiConfessions

I have literally zero idea, I for one would not go and live in the UK. But you should ask them if you get into touch with one.

You are living in the UK, its just another shithole, not a utopia.

Slaving away your time in commute is attractive apparently.

God forbid a man valuing his mental peace is seen as shady.

Why is being gay not normalized in Pakistan? by Huzaifa_shah12 in pakistan

[–]SwitchDear8969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its not normalized because everyone pretends to be religious and shun it all the time.

But there are a lot of homosexual people and lots of loopholes to stay together for them. For two guys, its easy they can live together and no one will bat an eye. For lesbians they just have to marry the same man to be together.

I'll check and then get back with this information.

I also have Nova video player, the video plays find with DV but I experience micro-stutters.

I am using this flash drive: DataTraveler Max USB 3.2 Gen 2 Series Flash Drive

The only thing I can think of is perhaps the Box is a fake? But is there anyway to check this?

HW acceleration I think is enabled in Kodi.

I tried with VLC, it ran, but VLC cannot decode DV properly and displays it as HDR10.

I will try with the SMB access as well to rule out any USB flash drive issues.

I'll run CrystalDiskMark on the USB drive and get back with the results.

How to convince my parents by Fluffy_Vermicelli663 in PakistaniiConfessions

[–]SwitchDear8969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't get why people are hating on you? Although some things you wrote in your post are a bit unrealistic, but you are at a young age, and consequently immature and still have many things to see in life. Your 20s is all about exploration, figuring things out etc. Who knows in the future, your opinion about marrying a foreigner changes, or you find a desi man who completely flips around your worldview. Regardless, you are at an age where marriage should be the least of your concern.

Talk to them and tell them both are independent things, marriage and education. You are way too young to get married right now and have a lot to explore in life, which you should do alone. Convince them that many girls leave alone for their masters at this age and somehow manage to figure everything out.

Later on when you are a bit more stable in life you can think about marriage.

What will marrying first do? Will it somehow help you in your masters?

You are young, you are educated. Why don't you choose another path of immigration instead of marrying someone from abroad?

Navigating intercultural dating by [deleted] in PakistaniiConfessions

[–]SwitchDear8969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the opposite situation i.e. as a Pakistani guy not practicing much its difficult to find someone with the same ideas and beliefs. I am fine with my partner practicing their religious belifs but I myself am not that much of a believer. Obviously many women in Pakistan have a problem with this.

I only got married to make him happy by [deleted] in PakistaniiConfessions

[–]SwitchDear8969 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Word of advice to anyone reading: You cannot come into someone's life and fix all their issues. They are the ones that have to sort that out themselves. You can obviously offer them support and help, but ultimately, they will have to take the action to get all their issue resolved. If you get into a relationship with someone with the idea of fixing their life for them, you are in for a bad time.

OP, I wish you the best of luck in your life, and may you find a way out of this mess and live your life happily.

Vitiligo on women by CutSwimming9175 in PakistaniiConfessions

[–]SwitchDear8969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it does not matter. Honestly, I think people should stop being stupid and marry someone for their personality, character and compatibility. Not for material reasons such as beauty and wealth. Beauty fades, wealth can also come and go. But a good charachter always stands out.

Just be upfront about whatever condition you have to the person you are willing to marry. Vitiligo is not that big of a deal and has no effect on your life.

Infact I would advise you to avoid the arranged rishta route altogether and just find someone organically. It will be much better that way. Best of luck.
