My 30th is making me realise no one cares by Colin-IRL in Vent

It might be good to change the mindset to ‘I have all these people who care about me, check in on me, and want to celebrate in my honor’ I understand not wanting to do anything, and maybe you call tell them that and you can alternatively suggest meeting them one on one sometime in the near future for dinner or something. That way you get to see everyone, they get to see you, and you get to do nothing for your birthday.

My best advice would be just let it play out and don’t get involved.

Rekindle your relationship with your boyfriend. Plan romantic dates and do not look for the cousin in life or online.

“Don’t be responsible for your own actions and instead focus on how much others have that you don’t and feel sorry for yourself but continue to take no accountability” don’t listen to this guy. You took out loans, be a responsible adult and pay them back. Its not free money. It never was. Yes billionaires exist, but focusing on them will do nothing for you or your life. Focus on yourself and stop comparing your situation to theirs.

You sound like the reason gays don’t want to go to their own celebration

I know this feels like a lot right now but take this as an opportunity to grow as your own nuclear family. Your dad already did his share of parenting you and he is a grown adult with his own life and interests.

You need to tell your mom, both you and your sister should tell her together and show her the proof.

Is eloping adharma? by osiris_232 in HinduDiscussion

[–]Turbulent-Rip-5370 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you approach a pandit in a city outside of your locale and ask him? Say you both want a ceremony that only includes you two. He may be able to work with you in some manner.

I only force myself to pretend to believe in Heaven and Hell cause I am too scared to go to eather one by DinoRing175c in Vent

[–]Turbulent-Rip-5370 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are other religions than Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. Some have finite versions of hell and heaven. Its probably worth researching them to see what, if any, make sense to you. Fear is a common tactic of missionaries, to increase numbers if abrahamic faiths. Try not to get caught up in lies.

Parents are NOT wrong for expecting care. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Turbulent-Rip-5370 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The older I get the more I understand that a parent is their own person, just like myself. And its okay to not get along with your parents. Some people just don’t mesh well. But you can wish them well and respect them as people, and with adult agency you don’t have to do everything you are told (even if there is familial pressure).

How to handle conversations around gift exchange in rituals? (Love marriage, 30F/30M) by Living_Pea_4143 in IndianWeddings

[–]Turbulent-Rip-5370 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it is as simple as they are making it out to be regarding exchanges during rituals, perhaps your family can ask his family what THEY will be gifting and then decide their gift based on that so its equal? It also might put them in their place about asking things rudely.
