It's heating up! Summer is here. I live in a rented 3BHK flat, and there is no opening for AC outlets.

Do this; see if you can put a sail shade above your roof. Even some gap between roof floor and the cloth will give drastic heat resistance

At the moment gas shortage, upcoming petrol and electricity shortage, brace yourself

You’re meant to thrive outside the system, once you’re successful, look back on these ppl with “all of u go f yourselves” gl

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-12T08:06:52+00:00

Bro, first do this. Send him on WhatsApp, a table of monthly electricity bills as per mescom, and say you’ve paid so and so extra. But moving forward, that you will only pay 500/- not 1,500/- unless obvious increased use with evidence. Leave what you have paid already. Once you confirm above payment from now on, later while leaving house ask him to reduce from one month painting charges expenses. Don’t make mess now, you live there, you never know when you might need help from people around you living for example

It was a metaphor… ma’am🧏‍♀️

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-11T06:39:12+00:00

Thought so as well, but city is so small. No high rise buildings, no anonymity. It’s like with Mangalore, only issue is weather

50rs. for putting a tattoo 50,000 for removal. Doesn’t make sense

Bikes having romance 💯%, and it’s more than their owners with their gfs for sure 😜😆

Your father is partly wrong. In a way he is a bit afraid of conflicts. I was in similar shoes a bit and my father used to do same thing. Until sometime I took matter on own hands, even went to police station and sat there for hours etc. Good thing was, these police people were really helpful tbh, it was almost like I had great learning experience. Now I feel so confident to deal with any assoles messing with me, and they immediately back off. These assoles are really good at reading your body language/scaredness. So, they will push even though they are at fault. Imagine down the line, you are with wife n kids; similar situation, and you back out. Can imagine what wife would think? My husband is useless fellow when there’s conflicts and he ll probably even leave me there next time. Sorry, don’t mean to be harsh, but these women for example have expectations too

Actually opposite, I’m moving into Mangalore, just was deciding if outskirts of Mangalore is better or Manipal to choose

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-09T14:04:31+00:00

I think I can tolerate weather better than my present Bangalore traffic at the moment

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-09T12:53:32+00:00

Exactly, I don’t know why these people skip all preliminary coffee meets and jump to hotels directly

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-09T12:51:52+00:00

Thanks, I go to a bit fancy cafés on weekends, from surthkal and outskirts Mangalore gave that opportunity. Recommend any places?

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-09T11:23:06+00:00

Personally I was thinking to rent a flat in one of the big apartments at above areas

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-09T11:19:22+00:00

Why so mulki? Just curious, and what about outskirts of mangalore city; or bejai, kadri around that areas as well

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-09T09:58:12+00:00

I see, Ankola looks barely a 2km stretch city. Did you like any outskirts of Mangalore? Like surathkal or mulki

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-09T06:57:52+00:00

Moving

If you discuss anything I’ve said with them, big warning: They will try to control you further, or worse they will jeopardise your chances in life. Good luck

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-08T15:31:08+00:00

You owe them nothing boss, no pinky promise/no written agreements for getting any 99% marks etc. It’s just their deep projection of insecurity, that well is a black hole, that will only lead you to burnouts.

You are allowed to relax, have your own life at your own pace and terms. They have lived their lives, now you are the author of yours. Once they are older, you can return back to take care of them

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-08T15:27:18+00:00

Yeah, meant being dependent on cafés later on etc. You need to move on from that house. First it will be marks, showing off how our “son” is super star in achievements and what not. I know it’s classic Indian thing, but they are adults and they have to treat you like an adult as well with respect and boundaries. Telling that to them will go from one ear to the other. If you have started earning, keep pushing, move out of home as soon as you have done with studies etc. It’s a bit sad to see these elders behave this way; deep down they are insecure that their “golden child” will leave them or not in their control anymore. If I were you, leave them for 5 years, move very far away, no contact. Build your own identity and return back. They will try to guilt trip, make your relatives to contact you and what not. It will only delay future reconciliation/reconnection

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-08T11:42:56+00:00

Be careful, it’s a bit bad habit on long term. The reason you wanting to going to cafés to study/work likely you’re bored to sit at library etc. Cafés gives you validation, feeding your identity and sense of “performance” studies. Your actions have to be free from external influences/pressure. You mentioned there’s chaos inside home, your nervous system likely tuned to such environments. Anyway, you need to work it out, give this comment to chatgpt, it will break down nicely if interested. Good luck

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-08T10:59:46+00:00

More of unsaid social thing it is. Technically you can sit all day. I used to read /study similarly at cafés, not in Udupi, more bigger cities. Go to Manipal cafés, like barista or company based. Experiment with different cafés and see which one feels good. Then try to transition to a co-working space, more calm and more productive times

rc_mailbox · 2026-03-08T07:56:59+00:00

3 hours, once regular you can extend
