I'm 27 and I've never been in a relationship even though I'm good looking due to my shyness and introverted nature.
Parents are pressurising for marriage by the end of the year.
I feel I'm missing out in life by getting married so soon.

Marriage will take 1.5 to 2 years. Start enjoying from tomorrow itself. Go to tourist places with friends and this will also help u reduce ur introvertedness.

But what are the chances you will girl on your own if you give like 2-3 more years considering your introvert nature?

May be 75%

Bhai, you are introvert and never had any relationship till now. Do you seriously think something will happen in your life all of a sudden.

I would suggest start looking for marriage and you can enjoy your courtship before marriage.

All the best

let them search for girls... and it's okay to feel you will be restraint because of this...

Start socializing, figure out first what kind of person to want to be with. It a major decision of life where you will be sleeping and waking up with this person so rather than your parents finding a partner for you that too with a deadline, you step up, take charge, keep your eyes open to see if you are able to find what you want. Keep looking for it rather than fixing a timeline first and achieving marriage as a goal.

I work with a classroom of Middle School ED students. One student, who I worked with the year before, has changed alot over the year. Last year (pre COVID), she had a good head on her shoulders and I thought I had good rapor with her. But over that period of isolation, she tried to commit suicide.

All year, she was much more withdrawn and ALWAYS on her phone! At the end of the I was 'beat up by her - she really knocked my glasses off.

How should I approach her in the upcoming year?
