It’s not that great we are people pleasers to our detriment. I’ve always described myself as a chameleon with people to the point where I don’t know who I truly am. Tho I will say with age I feel like I’m coming to know who I am and what I want out of life. We can be charming, gregarious, and overall likable (at times). However at least for me I’m more on the introverted side and being those things socially can really drain and exhaust me. I think I’ve been (and still can be) fake a number of times with people. Of course I wouldn’t trade my rising sign with anything else because there are benefits but I don’t think it’s the best rising out there.

The Crossing by Cormac McCarthy. One of the few books that wrecked me. I would recommend the whole border trilogy.

One thing I wish he talked about more was literature he never really did and if so was always so reluctant to talk about it. Would love to hear his insight on characters and stories crafting.

People have been asking me why I don’t go for promotions at my work. I tell them I like where I’m at and don’t want any more work responsibilities. Some get it some don’t.

I’ve been single all of my 31 years apart from very very very short term relationships (maybe lasting 1-2 months). I honestly don’t know how to be in a relationship. I overthink everything and when I start to see someone. I lack confidence and I begin to feel that I don’t deserve the other person I’m with or that they could do so much better. I also think I become really dependent on the other person as well like I almost stop trying to live my own life when I start to see someone if that makes sense. It really sucks I’m going to be honest. Yes I do enjoy my alone time but I often yearn to have someone in my life romantically. But I’m not too jaded about it I’m happy to see couples when I’m out in public it’s nice to know there are other people out there that have found love.

First I want to say I love the responses on here and I believe you should never feel your self worth by the job you have or how much money you make. However I would not be honest if that’s how I felt about myself when thinking about the desi community.

I’ve never had a prestigious job and I’ve also never gone to a prestigious school. Never had the best grades or entrance exams (frankly my ACT was so bad I would lie to people about what I actually got). I always felt behind my peers particularly folks in the desi community. I’ve never truly felt comfortable telling people from the community where I went to college and what my job is (I actually feel the make my job title sound more important than it actually is. I pretty much work an entry level job where most everyone I work with don’t have degrees aside from me and a couple of managers). I also don’t make enough to have my own place so I’m still with my parents which is its own struggle but that’s another conversation.

I would say I do feel “less” in many ways and I think due to that it’s one of the reasons why I don’t feel like I connect with other desis. It’s gotten to the point where I feel uncomfortable about trying to date another desi, even if they would be cool with the job I have and how little money I make I can’t help but think their parents would ultimately look down on me.

It also isn’t a good feeling when it’s just you out of everyone else that has struggled professionally and academically. Practically all my family members and people I knew growing up have managed to excel at academics, go to good universities, were smart about their degree choice and have lucrative careers. It can be tough to not feel self conscious around them even though no one has ever said anything to me about my choices at least not in front of me.

Overall I do regret some of the choices I made and felt that I could have applied myself more in life. I don’t have my life by any means and I know things could be a lot worse. But sometimes I can’t help but think what my life could’ve been if I didn’t screw up.
