Ugh is it a full moon? I just posted - I'm ready to call it quits. I tried the phone but we just argued. So I did thru text but I think we will still need to actually talk to make it "official."

Arguing sucks. It’s like I wasn’t going to involve you in this decision because I knew you wouldn’t agree

I became my best self after several break ups. From focusing on improving physical health, mental clarity to better job performance, connecting with friends, exploring hobbies and traveling more. Letting go of things that are holding us back, that limit us from being our best and etc, is a blessing in disguise

How do you deliver a breakup? (Phone call? In person?)

In person. Especially considering we live together it’d be pretty crappy to text him from a different room to say I’m moving out

I have been working into software development for past 8 years and my current CTC is around 50 lakh (including stocks of listed company). I don’t want to work into any managerial role for next 7 years more and also don’t want to work for companies like amazon where there is no work life balance.

Which all software companies in India i can work for where I can expect 10% CTC growth, a decent work life balance so that I can have a good married life in future. Thanks

Got a fat cat who has a timed/measured feeder. Still gaining weight. We were all stumped. Turns out my cattle dog shares her food with the cat every morning. Someone recommended a water spritz to get him away from the food. I basically soaked him for a few minutes while he stared at me and continued eating. Looks like I'll have to lock him up while the dogs eat from now on.

Did any of you ladies start having trouble sleeping till late once you turned 25-26? I used to be able to sleep till 9 am easily right until last year and now suddenly my body is up at 6:30 am and I can’t fall asleep. I’m frustrated because I want to sleep atleast till 7:30am. But can’t fall asleep once I’m up. I’m also tired when I wake up so it’s not like I had enough sleep. I cannot live like this for the rest of my life. What is wrong with me? 😭😭 Any suggestions appreciated!

I’m not sure if this happens to you, I’m constantly intimidated and feel judged by white men and women and/or people born in the US for having a strong foreign accent in the US. Nobody says that to my face, but I can see it in people’s actions. This has severely affected my confidence and I focus more on the way I pronounce some words rather than the content. How do I battle this situation? Would definitely like both perspectives.

Ok so. I have been on this journey for almost a year now to try and 'get to know and love myself' and I'm not there yet. I separated from my ex in March of 2020 and divorce was finalized in October 2020. I'm still sad, lost, angry etc. I'm trying/tried therapy, meditation, ayurveda, self help videos, books, but I'm not happy with myself and I don't think I know myself. I want to be happy alone before I meet anyone new. Any tips or advice on how I can effectively accomplish this? Thank you!
