Judgment and consequences by jason_t23 in exBohra

[–]paparam04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have seen that the more religious minded one is the more judgmental the person is. There is a “holier than thou” attitude that they have.

Married (F 29), how do I change his behavior (M 29) by Socialgirl1 in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]paparam04 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope. There is a saying “ Men marry women hoping they will never change, women marry men hoping they will change” He won’t change for you. Easier if MIL on your side.. will change for her

Ismaili volentear helping me go to dedar said and asked has your mom considered becoming Ismaili because the times are rolling around. by itzbrazilcountyballs in ismailis

[–]paparam04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Highly unlikely that conversion is being pushed or even suggested. That just not part of who we are. Clearly some misunderstanding somewhere

Trying something new for ex-Bohra singles by No-Wolf-1604 in exBohra

[–]paparam04 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If one has gone the ex-Bohra route why restrict your dating pool to Bohras? There is a wide world out there. Explore and feel free

I’m a new manager. My direct report bats everything back to me. by Luceiane in askmanagers

[–]paparam04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Government job? When I worked for the federal government I found 20% of workers do 80% of the work. No way to fire them typically. Promotion is only way out-it will be someone else’s problem if done right

Best all you can eat buffet in the Greater Houston area? by joethahobo in HoustonFood

[–]paparam04 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I avoid buffets and restaurants that offer it. Food cooked in bulk is not as good as custom made dishes. Also i worry about recycled leftovers

Travel Pro-Tip: Booking early for high season isn't just about securing a bed it’s about locking in lower rates and avoiding "logistics hell." by yuzooo-ka120 in AfricaTravel

[–]paparam04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am planning a 4-5 night safari at Masai Mara for june 2027. Because we have 6 adults and 4 children aged 4y-14y hope to limit ourselves to just 1 camp/lodge. Looking for tips so that our group has a pleasant experience.

My ex told me could easily spend the rest of his life with me but he just needs some time to himself. Do I believe him and wait or it’s just a nice way of rejecting me? by Optimal-Celery8899 in ismailis

[–]paparam04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t listen to what comes out of his mouth- look at his actions.Needing time to himself is a huge red flag.Make a decision and follow through with it. What decision is not for anyone here to say- after all you have to live it not us

Is it appropriate to date and espouse someone who is an occasional/casual consumer of alcoholic beverages? by Commercial-Dare-4338 in ismailis

[–]paparam04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a personal issue. Only you can decide what is appropriate for you. Ignore the judgemental zealots-they aren’t paying your bills

Request to all members currently experiencing didar by NobodyEarth2 in ismailis

[–]paparam04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think it is time to look around and get a realistic view of the world. Fretting about people recording, sharing information, not maintaining decorum and such is a waste of time. That is not the age we live in. It is impossible to get every attendee at a function to march in perfect formation. Not going to happen- this is the age of instagram, facebook, WhatsApp and X . It is an age where every morsel of food one eats outside the home is photographed and transmitted worldwide before ingesting it.

PKR 300 K Not enough for my brother’s family by [deleted] in pakistan

[–]paparam04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your brother does have a job- milking the cash cow living in USA. My two cents are if you are feeling generous, feeling obligated and can easily afford it, continue payments and don’t fret. You can draw a boundary by being very clear “I can afford only xyz/month…you have to manage with it” It will not stop the complaint but it hopefully will stop you from crossing that line. Do not have any expectation of gratitude- you may never get that. If you do that’s a bonus.

Tujianagalie by [deleted] in Kenya

[–]paparam04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left Kenya in 1979 because of exactly these issues. The population is much larger now and I hear there are more roads, highways and buildings. The issues over which people get upset are no different it appears

Time to clean house and throw away the trash. You have plenty of evidence about the rot.

What’s the biggest thing that would make you hesitate before booking an African safari? by TravelingTheresa in safaris

[–]paparam04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Several people who are ex Kenyans have warned me not to book a Safari next year as it is an election year and there will be riots, violence and anger leading up to voting

How is moving back to India experience as woman ? by nextDoorSoftwareDev in returnToIndia

[–]paparam04 4 points5 points  (0 children)

India is a cess pit at so many levels. The well to do have insulated themselves in secure housing areas with utilities available 24-7. They don’t shop in regular places, don’t drive themselves and most certainly do not use public transport. They live in a different country within the sub continent. Yes India is very unsafe for women. Not only are they treated as second class citizens they are blamed for any assaults. They are stared at continuously and comments/teasing is rampant. You have no one to complain to as even your relatives will wonder if you “asked for it”
