Texted someone from this sub and this was basically our first conversation. I get that these things matter when you’re looking for something serious, but asking them this early caught me off guard.
Curious — normal and practical, or a little too much too soon?
It is past midnight, and I am still hoping she will text.
Deep down, I know the message probably is not coming, but a part of me keeps checking my phone anyway.
I hv thought about blocking her number and trying to move on, but then another thought creeps in: what if she does decide to reach out someday? What if that one text comes after I have already closed the door?
It is a strange place to be,wanting to let go while still holding on to a tiny bit of hope.
Has anyone else been through something similar? How did you finally deal with it?
Same as title -
Question to women of this sub: are you okay with the concept of househusband
Question to women of this sub: are you okay with the concept of househusband
After coming back to Reddit, I discovered this new species called r/TwentiesIndia. Thought I'd spend some time observing them, expecting discussions about careers, ambitions, travelling, building stuff, figuring life out and all that.
What I found instead was basically a digital dukhi aatma convention.
Every other post is some variation of:
"i can't find love"
"she left me"
"i'm 24, should i get married?"
"i'm 27 and never had a relationship, am i cooked?"
"everyone around me is dating except me"
At some point it feels like you're reading the same post over and over again with different usernames.
The whole sub seems stuck in an endless cycle of loneliness, relationship anxiety and people convincing each other that life is already over before they've even hit 30. Very little discussion about actually doing something with your life, taking risks, building skills, or chasing goals.
Sorry to say this, but I've never seen nihilism this strong in a community full of young people. Feels less like a subreddit for people in their twenties and more like a waiting room where everyone has collectively decided nothing good is ever going to happen.
Absolute khatam crowd. Pure trauma-porn consumption at this point.
Just a rply to that girl asking why are boys like this.
Is this the fear or commitment or fear of losing your freedom. Like as a single guy i want to commit but also like the freedom that i am having right now. Last relationship was not that great. Its been time and want to feel loved again but also feel like staying like this.
Anyone else also feels like the same ?

Matched with a girl on Hinge a few weeks back.
At first she seemed cool. One thing she used to bring up a lot though was effort. Apparently most guys nowadays are low effort, can’t communicate, don’t plan dates properly, don’t know how to hold conversations, etc etc.
Fair enough.
The funny thing is if I didn’t text first, we’d probably never talk. I was starting almost every conversation. A couple of times I purposely didn’t text for a day just to see if she’d reach out.
Nothing.
Anyway, after talking for around 2 weeks I asked her out.
She picked the place herself and throughout our chats she kept saying how much she hates people who are late. Like she mentioned it enough times that I actually remembered it.
Date day comes.
I get there a little early.
She texts me, "5 mins."
I think everyone here already knows where this is going.
35 mins later she walks in.
Not even a "sorry I’m late" 😂
Now here’s the part where I had to do a double take.
She looked ... hmmmm .. different.
Not trying to be mean here, but those Hinge photos deserved an award. Every pic was from the same angle, same pose, same lighting. In hindsight it should’ve been obvious.
Like technically it was the same person, but also somehow not the same person.
Got catfished? Maybe.
Outplayed by camera angles? Definitely.
Anyway I stayed because I’m already there and leaving would’ve been awkward.
The date wasn’t horrible but it was nt exactly flowing either. Most of the conversation felt like me trying to keep the ball rolling while she gave short answers.
Then while we are sitting there she starts talking about how people nowadays dont respect other people’s time and commitments.
I swear I almost started laughing.
Like ma’am, you hv been here for 20 minutes.
Fast forward a few days.
She texts me saying she did nt feel enough effort from my side and wants someone more intentional.
At that point I just stared at my phone.
I initiated almost every conversation, planned the date, reached on time and carried most of the interaction.
Maybe we just have very different definitions of effort.
Anyway, no hard feelings. We were not compatible.
But one thing I hv learnt from dating apps is that profile prompts tell you who people think they are.
Meeting them tells you who they actually are.
And if every photo is taken from one very specific angle,I am immediately suspicious now 😭
