At 28, I genuinely feel out of place in this generation.

Hookup culture, cheating, porn addiction, alcohol/drugs, “situationships,” talking to multiple people at once — when did all this become normal?

Why is loyalty so rare now?

I’m honestly scared sometimes… will I ever find someone loyal, honest, grounded, and emotionally mature? Someone with strong values, no casual hookup mindset, no fake personality just to fit in.

A minimalist soul who can fly high in life and still stay humble. Someone who knows the difference between freedom and losing yourself completely.

I’m tired of people treating relationships like temporary entertainment. I still believe in loving one person deeply, building a stable life together, and actually meaning your words.

Sometimes I feel like wanting honesty, commitment, peace, and emotional depth makes me “too old-fashioned” for today’s world.

Anyone else feeling this disconnect lately?

29F4M recently joined matrimonial app for the AM process not working bcz i was into govt exams where soon will have interviews scheduled recently i connected with a guy there and we are having good conversation like friends as of now as we both want to know person first but he told me his family is pressurizing him to meet other potential matches through traditional ways they are all working earning really well .he ticks all my checkbox but somehow there's a confusion that will it go forward to something meaningful or will end here. Don't know how to deal with this we both never dated anyone kinda we are quite similar as per over conversation till now how to deal with this situation where i feel i might lose a potential match based on just one thing that I'm not working at present but will definitely do in future
