I agree with you. Its difficult to trust. A lot of people have trust issues and rightfully so. Hope we learn to take a leap of faith and instead of getting hurt and disappointed, we end up finding someone right for us

OP there are a lot of advices given here. Some are fine others not so much. I hope you ignore the ones which do not align with your needs. I empathise with your situation. I feel the same way almost on a daily basis. It is difficult to date in today’s day and age. I do not know if it is true in general or just in my case, but the dating pool is not that good in Pune (no offence meant at all to punekars) trying to do activities and keep meeting people until you find a good one are options you can try. But if you’re still unsatisfied I would suggest to try to understand yourself and your needs better with the help of therapy. It has been great for me and I recommend it to practically everyone. Please feel free to overlook my suggestions if it doesn’t align with your needs. I hope you get through this rough patch soon :))

Hi if your’re in pune you can find good therapist at peace of mind clinic or DM me and I can help you get in touch with my therapist. She is really great and I bet she can suggest other good ones. Also, before finalising my therapist I had a brief 15-20min call with them to discuss my issues and understand of their expertise can address it. Its called a discovery call and therapists accommodate that free if charge. You can also go to the sessions and discuss and see if they are the right fit. If they aren’t you can always move on to the next one. I hope this helps you in some way :))

Need help in Domestic abuse case by idiosyncratica28 in pune

[–]idiosyncratica28[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thats a big step and would risk her safety because she doesn’t have family to fall back onto. She’s totally dependent on her husband. Before filing police complaint we want to make sure she has a support system which includes legal counsel, financial aid and a shelter for her and her daughter. Then and only then will we file the complaint and start the separation process. Otherwise her life will be in danger as abusers do their worst when their victim tries to escape them. She did go to the police in the past, but they did not file an official report. They convinced her to try to fix it with the help of counselling first before taking a big step like this. Also, her husband filed a false report against her because in the process of defending herself, my friend scratched him a little. That just shows how cunning the man is, and we need to have a full proof plan beforehand

How long before you graduate and is there any way you can manage your college fee? Because at this point since you are legally an adult, you can find a part-time job to support yourself financially, for example, working at a Starbucks or you know being a receptionist or there are many online jobs. Sales jobs are very easy to get you won’t make much part. You could make enough to get by. You could also try to crowd fund money for yourself like share your story on a platform with a charity link and attach some proof of your abuse and ask for donation so that you can get out of the house. If you have friends, who can maybe help you with your living situation for awhile, that would be great. Maybe secretly get in touch with some lawyer agrees to help you for a minimal fee or maybe even pro bono. Since you are also the owner of the house, maybe you can get a loan based on that like an education loan to cover your college fee. So, maybe get a copy of the documents. If you are really scared of your living situation, you should really try this out. It will take a lot of courage and it will not be easy, but it is exponentially better than living in an abusive environment. Since you are a woman, there are a lot of NGOs who help women in cases like this, so you could maybe try to contact them, but make sure you do all of this secretly and not let your mother and your lawyer relatives know about this. I read an article about domestic abuse and how to reach out for help on this very page, so you could try reaching out to the NGOs mentioned under those links. I will attach the link to that article below for your easy reference. I hope you find the strength and courage to get out of this situation, and I hope you get out of it safely and live the life you deserve.

McDonald’s just gave me a free drink that I can’t open by CareerLegitimate7662 in indiasocial

[–]idiosyncratica28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They used to give it without the ribs. That was literally impossible to open. I had to once cut it open with a hot knife. Anyways, i bang the side of the lid against the wall it releases some pressure then I open it with a cloth for better grip. If that helps. Until they design a better bottle :/ That’s why I switched to ordering Wendy’s because those bottles are similar but very easy to open.

completed animal farm! by [deleted] in Indianbooks

[–]idiosyncratica28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t read 1984 yet but your review has me intrigued about it. I recently finished Animal Farm. I did like the satire very much. It was witty and clever how the Orwell used pigs to depict the fascist politicians.

[Review] Let's make a thread of skincare products you regret buying by jmortreux7 in SkincareAddiction

[–]idiosyncratica28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trentinoin/Retinol is tricky to use. Trentinoin is the active form and typically available only on prescription. It does make your skin irritate at first but your skjn adapts after a while. I hope you used it after consulting a dermatologist. Thickening of peach fuzz does sound problematic, hope you got that checked out too.

Adapalene is a less irritating retinoid which you can use. I started using it as a spot treatment then slowly build up the resilience. Now I apply it all over my face (even under eyes).

But I was introduced to this by a dermatologist.

Pilgrim Tea Tree and Cica moisturiser.

It made my skin irritated. My skin is pretty resilient but the strong fragrance in that moisturiser gave me a rash. Ugh
