I really liked it!! It’s all very interesting to learn about the differences in culture, I always thought arranged marriage was so crazy but to see the modern version of it (for some of the clients) I can see how it has worked for many ppl over the years. Plus I love seeing all the footage in India, such a beautiful country

I’m dating someone new and it is going very well. He is kind, not high strung, with great values and shares my sense of humor. It is so easy and natural to spend multiple days with him.
Still I am having doubts because I think he isn’t very “intellectual”. To be clear, he’s intelligent! He is a great STEM role that requires an advanced degree. We share a love of reading as well. However he is not really interested in world affairs, does not follow the news closely, does not have a strong grasp

I can’t stand most women in manager roles and I’m a woman myself. I’d much rather work for a man. There’s no petty bs. Everything is direct and no one gets hurt feelings.

I think my brother is an idiot when it comes to his dating life. He recently started dating someone that the whole family loves - really down to earth, great personality, educated, hot and has a career. I just found out my bro is cheating on her with his ex (who is toxic/manipulative, stole money from my mother & doesn’t have a job or trying to get one). From a personality, values & looks perspective, the new girlfriend is what every guy would dream of. Im jealous &wish I could date her instead

Went on a first date, thought it was like a 6-7 out of 10 connection and with some red flags, but then she was so honest and cute the way we said bye that my heart melted into a puddle. Now I can't get her out of my head and am like a little kid excited for Disneyland anticipating date two. I'm in trouble 😅

I started dating this guy some months before covid struck.. he was literally crazy about me. He even stayed in Hyderabad for months just so that we could meet once before he went on to stay with his family. After that it had been a real roller coaster. He pampered me a lot before and now he hardly talks. We both have switched to different companies (earlier were in the same) and now he works 6 days a week. Sleeps or Vists his relatives or works on Sundays. Sometimes I feel he no longer loves me.

I got to know someone thru work, and flirted a bit over 1 week. Then we never spoke again because of work geography. He reached out this week after 9 months+ asking for a visa sponsor to take a vacay in my country (given mobility restriction these days), and asked me to hook him up with a business visa referral letter thru my connections. He also said he’s coming with gf. I said im happy to write him a personal reference letter, but wont be able to get him a business one. Is this rude?

I just transitioned to a new role in a newly created team where I’m basically building the team (startup). I’m working with two execs who I like and have a lot of background with but I’m still really overwhelmed at the lack of structure. I feel like I could just wrap myself in circles. There’s so much that needs to be done and I feel like I’m drowning. Has anyone done anything similar? Any advice?
