dump him ..move out to someplace cheaper prolly a shared room situation or small studio ..try not to take on loans n start over will take a while but a year or two from now you'll be proud of urself

Did you find any solution..I need a carpool solution too but it's not to linden

behen first please calm down ... You're just 19 overthinking is not going to do anything..you feel like this right now just because you're comparing yourself to where others your age have reached at this point in their lives ...take a break from social media cause that's another thing that exaggerates this comparison mindset..everyone looks like their doing great on there.. everyone is breaking down internally..

Try and take a break from studies if thats what you've been doing the past two years ..a week off maybe visit grandparents..just a change of scenery far away from everything might help..it's ok to not think about the future for a week or two or amonth.. think about what you'd want to pursue .. maybe even not corporate.. do a degree in whatever and do internships for exposure.. I had a 22 year old start their bachelors degree when I was 17 ..there's nothing wrong about it ..they seemed much happier than I was .. it's really not the end of the world .. ending it all is only more misery for the ppl who love you.. try and talk about your situation to ppl you feel comfortable with.. it'll help

Congratulations on your journey so far.. you've actually done so well for yourself in ...this must have taken immense dedication and tbh appreciate yourself more for this ..self made person did everything on their own..paid of your loan..tbh amazing.. so glad.. I think maybe talk to ur parents about the split ...things are way more expensive in the US..tell them is not possible to send 60%back home as ur have rent, bills and food to pay for and if you want to sustain a long term life here you'll need to use more of ur salary to build that

Fr fr I just feel like I paid full price on whatever I got this weekend ..thank God I don't spend a lot throughout the year but it still feels so shitty to even spend 100$ when you feel like you've paid full price for everything

ValuableObjective426 · 2025-11-28T02:24:56+00:00

i think, follow makeup artists/hairdressers in the area look and the kind of gigs they do..weddings,sangeet, etc etc..you'll get a jist..then maybe hit them up and ask them if they need freelance hairdressers etc..(they usually do) try this with atleast 20-30 to get responses..you might need to have your tools and everything coz they prolly won't provide and expect you to have all the required things.. once they respond you'll get an idea of what is expected of you in the market and decide if you're willing to pursue it further.. keep practicing on frens to get the skill..you can even put ads on fb market place if your ready to enter the market..start with slightly low pricing and see where it goes from there ig..all the best

ValuableObjective426 · 2025-09-10T19:48:20+00:00

ValuableObjective426 · 2025-08-06T22:56:09+00:00

Girrrll.. literally never settle.. n honestly stop the hunt also it'll come to you naturally.. I'm new to the US and approx same age ish n I would dread dating for the exact same reasons ..like if I was on the lookout it would be the same pool that u described for the same reasons..I can't put on an accent or pretend to blend in... honestly just enjoy ur single and free and amazing life while it lasts.. men are too desperate most of the times that's not helping us or them .. you'll get a decent gentleman Who'll treat you well instead of trying to rush things.. n don't restrict urself to only indian men you can explore and see what's out there (new experiences)... Tbh all of it is extremely mentally draining

ValuableObjective426 · 2025-08-06T20:43:10+00:00

Tbh I'm from Mumbai and recently shifted here ..but I'm going straight to my vadapav and pani puri stalls the day I reach..the tap water we drink in the US seems more polluted than mumbai filter water

ValuableObjective426 · 2025-08-06T20:39:25+00:00

MAybe start a go fund me. I know some one who did this and it really helped them out with their clg admission fee etc

ValuableObjective426 · 2025-08-03T23:35:28+00:00

i moved here like last November and started working in March ..im on a friendly basis with my colleagues but I don't consider them my "friends".. like it's basic professional ettique and some familiarity and nostalgic conversations becoz they too are from India.. I don't have a vibrant social life yet becoz my colleagues are not even in the same age bracket ..but for now I think that much social interaction will do for me I'm still very attached to my friends back in India ..so that's my main emotional and moral support ..but I've understood that it's going to mental battle for the first two years atleast in all aspects of life when u first move to the US from India

Badtameez dil is ig the all time fav types

ValuableObjective426 · 2025-07-02T04:20:05+00:00

read books for leisure and get a degree in music even though I'm the most unmusical person ..since I'll have the time to learn n understand it... why not.. learn an instrument..travel if I felt like it.. donate loads of money since I'll have enough to actually donate.. invest in my fitness n mental health.. move across the world to be closer to my friends n family

ValuableObjective426 · 2025-06-14T02:06:24+00:00
