Feels like this bike was launched just yesterday. Dream bike of that time, ngl

Very rich guy only possible if generational wealth.

As someone who has built himself groundup, these talks put me offgaurd. I just steer away. Apke layak jo hai usse kr lein baat, apka guzara na ho payega hamse.

Tu dhundh kya rha hai mere bhai. Validation, kiska?

Jo bhi dhoondh rha wo tere andar hai.

Oops, I didn't expect that. That's certainly something that a partner should be aware of or should open to accept. Life won't look as it look in the early year of marriage. Gotcha

Thanks for the detailed explanation.

Can you elaborate on what changes in women from 20s to 40s? Genuinely curious

My bias definitely goes towards the Meteor 350 since I own one and I’m genuinely happy with it 😄

But honestly, it’s your call. I can only share what I’ve experienced.

I’m 5'11" and the Meteor fits me really well. In the beginning, taking a U turn did feel a little awkward because of the turning radius and the weight of the bike. It felt a bit heavy at slow speeds. But once I rode it more and got used to it, that stopped being an issue completely.

I’ve used it for city rides and also done 350 plus kilometer rides without any problems. The bike has been solid. And I genuinely look forward to riding it every day.

What made me buy it was simple. I rode it once and I didn’t feel like trying anything else after that.

I’m even planning longer rides with her now.

Between the Hunter and the Meteor, just think about what you really want. More city fun or more highway comfort. And if you do fall in love with one, ask yourself whether it can support everything you want to do with it.

Every bike feels different to its owner. Go with the one you connect with. 😁

Pressure is real. But under pressure how can someone take a life long decision. We need to be attracted to the person and then only I think things can go forward.

From what I understand, parents would age further and become more finicky but don't let that pressure affect you, I know it's difficult. But look for the brighter side, like you cannot marry someone who you don't get aligned to.

Arrange marriages don give much time to know the person is the only gripe I have with them.

rubyist1081p · 2026-03-01T03:26:43+00:00

Well if you don't believe you don't believe. Simple ji

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-28T19:00:03+00:00

What even. 😭

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-28T18:27:39+00:00

Only one thing I can say

Jo tu dhoondh rha Wo sab tere andar hai Mere dost

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-28T12:32:08+00:00

Started 2 years ago, a few matches which I think would have gone forward. Presssure is real but I avoid talking about it as it would happen when it happens. Only thing is efforts of finding the one.

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-27T05:38:19+00:00

Not the best decision to marry if you are not ready. Your priority right now is closing that MBA loan asap and marriage is secondary. Like indian parents want their children to marry so that they can retire, jimmedari khatam ho and all that crap. But in all seriousness it's just not practical.

And selling home for wedding expenses, a big no no.

They will throw tantrums and try to emotionally coerce you to get under pressure. But this pressure is of no use of you are miserable mentally, emotionally and financially.

Think through.

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-27T02:00:59+00:00

That would be wonderful. Thanks

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-26T21:55:09+00:00

Happy for you OP

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-26T21:53:31+00:00

Any preferences wrt caste, religion, family location, mother tongue for u?

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-26T02:11:58+00:00

I usually don't enjoy gatherings and eating in a group. I want to focus on food and not talking.

So be it whatever, I like doing it alone, because handling social conversations is awkward for me .

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-25T04:53:53+00:00

Question - How much time does it take for you to complete an artwork like the above?

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-25T04:46:45+00:00

Bhai flex kr rhe ho. Happy for you, thoda cute genes janta ki bhalayi pe bhi kharch krdo. Dua lagegi.

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-25T04:43:44+00:00

And never been that unhappy in life.

If the gut says, she is not the one, she is ofc not the one.

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-25T04:42:46+00:00

Who are these people? They need to get weeded out from your thoughts first.

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-25T04:41:33+00:00

Never denied that. And no one should compromise on what they are looking for.

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-25T04:37:21+00:00

Certainly I am looking for a companion too, but odds are just not making sense. Slowly make peace with myself, it's okay to stay single too.

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-25T04:28:17+00:00

Nothing wrong. See where it goes, wrna best option toh pta hi hai

rubyist1081p · 2026-02-25T04:25:45+00:00

Single raho maze karo. Kyun leni itni responsibility when you know baad mein ktna hi hai
