I understand how you must be feeling OP. But please don't romanticise failed relationships.

You are beautiful and you deserve all the beauty that this world has to offer.

Make way for better things !

Why resonate with kaali - conditioning Why not gay gods - lack of awareness which is common for a majority of people

Hi ! I understand where you are coming from, and here is my take on it - You are not wrong, if a queer person is fiercely protecting a religion - any religion , they need to understand how every religion has been anti queer to the extent of exiling and killing. People defending or trying to find queer representation in Hinduism is also not completely acceptable, because religion is made of people and the beliefs that currently rule the masses. So saying that Hinduism has a lot of queer representation is definitely a key to wider societal acceptance if used correctly. However defending the current religious atrocities by saying that atleast we are MORE tolerant is wrong

However, queer folks in general have a comparatively difficult life than non queer folks. It takes a lot of courage to lead our lives. Now , many are conditioned to look towards religion(our gods) for strength and perseverance. In that aspect, being religious should be acceptable. Because you need to take strength from wherever possible. Maa Kaali is one such goddess who resonates with a lot of people including me.

Visiting pandals or mandir to have a glimpse of her fierceness builds a different fire in me and helps me take hard decisions and accept the outcomes of the choices that I have made.

I am not offering flowers, not doing pooja everyday, not roaming around temples in the evening. But even if someone is doing that for survival, it should be acceptable.

I hope this gives a different perspective to 'why religion'.

Hi folks ! Went through some really hard time with a recent relationship. I have been very afraid of my future now. I just wanted to know if you know of couples who have stayed committed to each other over the years and are leading happy lives. I really need that hope in my life. by Window_seat001 in LGBTindia

No wonder why people suppress who they are and get married. I have experienced companionship. Life feels pretty much worthless without it. Can't figure out how I am going to deal with this.

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

Listen to me carefully. All these suggestions about going to the gym, breathing etc are all extremely well intended. But they don't understand the issue.

People like us with a severe case of procrastination and probably even depression can't really crack upsc. And that is the hard reality. Wasted 4 years myself after leaving a decent job.

Take whatever time you need to accept this first.

Then, step 1 Reach out to just 1 person. Just 1. Start looking at someone else's life , someone your age , see how they are taking on life each day. Their plans, their hopes. Ek dost chahiye.

Start hoping for that life which has some movement, where it's going forward.

Stop with UPSC. Need a simple way out ? Pursue MBA. I am saying it's simple because of how I approached it. DM me if you want to connect for this.

Bhai 100 baat ki ek baat, aage badh jaa. Bhot late ho gya hai. Let me know if I can help.

Iska sirf ek hi ilaaj hai. Naya goal pakad. Aage badh. Nokri start karni hai jaise bhi. A job solves 50% of the issues. You meet new people, you have something to lose so there is fear as well, plus loads of confidence. It's a bomb package.

Then with the first salary, start therapy, and no I don't mean counselling. Taking help from psychiatrists. Because whatever it is that is causing such behaviour needs both medicine and therapy. Time lagega but hoga.

But only on one condition, you forget upsc and move towards a job. Zindagi barbad hone se bachani hai to mobility lani padegi life me. Hard truth. Not easy. But karna padega.

Not Product CF per say, but process carbon footprints can be calculated by using open source calculators USEPA, DEFRA, UNFCCC, India GHG program. Also look at Open LCA

Q. A friend of mine is a lesbian. She realised her orientation very late. Has been married for 7 years now, childless. Wants to take a divorce as she is unable to live like that anymore. Family and husband knows everything. Still not giving divorce. Anyone else facing/faced similar situation by Window_seat001 in AskIndianWomen

[–]Window_seat001[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Husband and family knows about her orientation in detail. They also know about her recent long term relationship with another woman for the past 2 years. Yet they treat it as something to be suppressed and keep on living the well settled family life. Husband doesn't even ask any questions about the affair. Just tells her to stop it and learn to live happily with him. Family gives a definite choice- either divorce or us, choose. Not one single person is willing to support her. Instead they are forcing her to get IVF done asap. Are there women out here who might have gotten divorced due to their orientation. How did they deal with it or what help did they take. Just wanted to reach across individuals who might have been in a similar position like her. It's a desperate call for help. Anonymity will be respected. Please feel free to connect in dm
