For me it was Schindlers list and Grave of the fireflies.
Grave of the fireflies in particular broke me so much that I had nightmares about losing Setsuko that I woke up crying the next day.
Schindlers list broke me when in grew up in my adulthood. I didn’t realize when I was young why mom would sob when she watched it. But now I get it.
So I would never dare to watch them again ever again.
Didn’t see much in meetup app or eventbrite. Eventbrite tho is filled with parties lol around SF.
So my parents have been very supportive of me in my entire life. Even when I threw angry tantrums. But I was bought up in a sort of orthodox sort of way. So never grew up brave enough to approach a girl even though I had lots of crushes.
So I turned up to be a studious nerdy guy with lots of insecurities about myself especially balding at young age.
But then I moved to the states and stated discovering more hobbies that were more adventurous outdoorsy. And hit the gym more.
Up until recently parents were talking about getting me married by 27. Which I was sort of not happy with since I wanted to find love myself (which still I am unlucky since lol I am not maybe good looking).
But then suddenly my visa situation (h1b) did not get through. And the effects were reverberating as my parents completely stopped talking about marriage.
I was shocked and surprised.
Is this alright? Is this ok? I feel relieved a bit and also confused

Just got this on a random Reddit suggested post. Was curious.
Seems more like roasting folks than matching. Which is absolute cinema !!
Was wondering if this sub is legit or just pulling folks legs lol
Sad to say this that the rat race mentality still sticks with you even when you grow up. oh X person did this I need to do better.
Something baked into us (and even my Asian colleagues).
Maybe we need to slowly change it for the next generations
