Never expected this

Pata hai aaj kya hua , there was this girl which kinda caught my attention on insta and lemme tell you am a big time introvert, her profile was public so i used to just like her posts/reels which i found good whenever she posted.

Today, there was some reel of her which kinda made me like so happy(can’t describe it rn idk why).the feeling was so intense which helped me gain confidence and dmed her, nothing creepy, just telling her i liked reel and would love to talk if you are fine with it and all that.I overthinked alot and even asked my friends as well as a female friend(for better opinion ofc) , all of them told that the dm felt good nothing creepy.

So i did send, few hours later, am blocked for no reason, no reply nothing.And yes it hurts alot rn.Some people might say that hey it was just a girl making content online and maybe she didnt want any guy but i wasnt in her dm proposing to her or something, just appreciated her content thats it.

This was the first time I dmed someone and now my confidence is shattered.So yeah idk if i’ll ever dm someone again.

Let’s be honest, India is still a price-sensitive market and these organizing companies fail to understand that. There was no way a concert with the majority of tickets priced at ₹10k+ was going to completely sell out. Everyone knew that from the start, yet White Fox and the other companies involved in pricing got greedy, and now it has backfired on them.

This is also one of the reasons why artists like The Weeknd still hesitate with India tours. No matter how popular an artist is, you can’t expect people here to casually throw huge amounts of money at concerts. India being one of the biggest markets for piracy already says a lot about the average spending mindset and purchasing power.

People will bring up Travis Scott, but we all saw how tickets were being sold for peanuts outside the stadium, and Mumbai didn’t even properly sell out because resellers realized by then that ticket reselling can’t realistically become a business in India.

Coldplay did comparatively well, but look at their audience demographic — mostly millennials and working professionals who already earn enough to afford expensive tickets. The audience for artists like Ye, Travis, or Weeknd is mainly school/college students and young adults, which makes a huge difference in pricing viability.

I tried talking to someone online, kept it normal and respectful, but got no response.
It kinda hit harder than expected because I actually felt a genuine interest, not just random attraction.

She makes reels and doesn’t have a huge following, so I thought it might be easier to start a normal conversation, but still nothing.

How do you guys deal with situations where you put yourself out there and get nothing back?it felt mentally draining atp
