Just finished reading The Bell Jar - I hate Ted Hughes

I just finished reading the bell jar and went down a rabbit hole because I wanted to find out what happened in Plath's life, I knew about her death through popular culture but in an effort to know more, I found out that this man called Ted Hughes:

  1. Cheated on Sylvia with a married woman
  2. Hit her and caused her miscarriage (as she wrote in her letters to her therapist)
  3. Abandoned their two kids and left Sylvia alone in London to pursue this married woman
  4. Tried to blame the anti-depressants prescribed by Sylvia's doctor to remove blame from himself for her death
  5. Didn't even marry the woman he cheated on Sylvia with, had a child with her, moved her to the house he bought WITH SYLVIA, where this new woman used HER things
  6. Treated the new woman like a housekeeper, and surprise surprise, CHEATED ON HER TWICE, once with a married woman and once with a nurse 20 years younger than him
  7. This new woman also k worded herself and her 4-year old kid with Hughes as she was unhappy of the way he treated her and refused to marry her.
  8. His son with Sylvia, also k worded himself.

I'm sorry, but I genuinely despise this philandering, evil, demon of a man. The amount of pain and violence he unleashed on the ecosystem around him is enraging me. I hope he is currently burning in hell. Apologies if I come across as too emotional, but this triggered me. He was an awful human being.

24F seeking advice on how to get started

I'm a young woman from a relatively smaller city in India. We're well off, but we don't have the kind of network I'd like to be married into.

Despite being from a not so sexy city, I've hustled and worked hard in life. I went to an excellent undergraduate institute abroad (think ivy league equivalents) and worked there as well. I did not date around abroad as I was busy working two jobs and studying, a decision I deeply regret as now I feel intense FOMO that I should have found someone there.

I am looking for a niche marriage/matrimony contact. Someone who only has a few clients, someone who is for the most part, a well kept secret. I am well situated financially, very well situated academically and aesthetically. I am looking for the hidden gems - the people who aren't loud about their wealth but are good people, looking to create lasting relationships and are okay with a woman building her career and having autonomy. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing I want more than to be a mother and a wife and I'm especially feeling anxious as I feel time is running out. My family is putting immense pressure on me saying all the good guys may get taken, but I'm looking for a niche/boutique person to help me tap into networks that I'm aligned with.

If you know someone like this, not the standard mass-produced options but a place for lowkey, classy, intellectual people please help me out.
