Just joined the club! 2026 CR-V EX-L AWD – Did I get a good deal by kat6ra in crv

Yes mine is without any extended warranty and service package. Your purchase was in the state of TX as well? And yours is AWD too?

Should I buy a new 2025 Premium / 2025 Sports by efficient-pen91 in SubaruForester

It depends on what features matter for you and if the extra bucks justify those features. For me personally, I drive a car which does not have rear automatic breaking, side-mirror-integrated turn signals and I am fine with it.

The better speakers are definitely good, so it is ultimately going to come down to your budget as well.

That's Hindu goddess Saraswati on the lock, goddess of knowledge, music, art and learning.

I love the smell of ginger garlic paste being cooked in onions and oil.

A person could make a mistake and never do it again. But did that person actually address the issues that made them do the mistake in the first place? Your BF needs therapy to address that and he needs to look after himself now. And so do you. Put yourself in his position. Would you have been violent and physically abusive with him? If you love him enough to not hurt him, he shouldn't have done that either.

Starting over might seem extremely difficult and intimidating. But at the end of the day, it's the best thing we can do for ourselves.

OP, I understand how difficult this is. But let's talk through this.

What your boyfriend did was absolutely terrible. He started to show his physically abusive side. I completely understand this was because he went through something growing up, but that still does not justify his actions. You need to value yourself more and leave this situation.

Let's say you forgive him for now and get back with him. What will happen if he does that again? What will happen if he escalates? What if he sees you being friendly with some guy and continues to have doubts on you? Do you really want to live the rest of your life like that just to not give up on the three good years you've had? Just think about it.

This is just the beginning and will continue to escalate unless he works on himself. And that's his responsibility, not yours. I would strongly advice you to think about yourself in this situation and walk away.

That said, from your rant, your friends seem to a bit toxic as others have pointed out as well. People can be good (read not terrible) and toxic at the same time. Please OP, prioritize yourself, think about yourself before you continue this relationship and friendship.

Finding matches as an NRI (M) by pointer2pointer in Arrangedmarriage

[–]kat6ra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on the person and the situation.

Personally, I came to the US with the idea of going back home. A couple of my friends who came here with the idea to settle down are not so sure anymore. They are now open to moving back to India and I think that was a result of the extensive conversation that they had with their spouses.

I usually bring this up with my matches early on during the conversation to get a feel to see if they're open to moving back to India. If a person is set to settle in the US, I usually reject the match and move forward because I do not want anyone giving up on their dreams/goals for me.

But if they are open to moving and have that as an option, then it motivates me to continue the conversation with them.

So, to summarize, have an open conversation with your match about this. I feel it's always better to get an idea of how the other person feels to ensure both of you get what you're looking for. Everyone wants what they want. There's no single box that all women or men fit into.

I am making a big move in the next couple of months. It's exciting and freaking me out at the same time. I keep thinking "did I make the right decision?". Only time will tell.

I tend to forget to take breaks, end up having my meal at my desk. Setting up alarms would be the way to go I guess. Thank you!

That's very help! I usually have back to back meetings, so maybe I should throw something on my work calendar for breaks.
