I don’t think I’ve ever felt this loved

**I still don’t know how to process what my girlfriend did for me**
I honestly don’t even know how to write this without sounding like I’m bragging, because that’s not really what this is about.
My girlfriend is 22 and currently in Australia. She’s coming back to India permanently next year. She also has a loan of more than ₹20 lakh, so she’s not exactly in a position where I’d expect her to spend crazy amounts of money on me.
A few days ago, my mood was really down. I told her about it, and she suddenly showed me something.
A PS5.
I was like, **“What the fkkkkkkk?!”**
She had already bought it as a surprise for me *before* I even told her I was feeling down.
And apparently, she had been doing **double shifts** just to afford it.
That part completely broke me.
I had actually told her before that she shouldn’t buy me one because it was around ₹70,000 in India. I’m not a materialistic person, and honestly, I would’ve been perfectly happy waiting until she came back to India.
But after buying it in Australia, sending it to India would’ve cost another ₹30,000 or so.
So I kept telling her, **“Please don’t. Just bring it when you come back. We’ll deal with it then.”**
Instead, she sent me the ₹70,000 and basically said:
**“Go and faking buy it right now.”**
I ended up pre-ordering it today from the Sony Center at DLF because it wasn’t available anywhere.
And I don’t know how to feel.
I’m obviously happy. I mean… who wouldn’t be?
But more than the PS5, I’m completely overwhelmed by the thought behind it.
She had been working double shifts. She has a huge loan. She’s leaving that job after buying it. And she still decided that spending this money on me was worth it because she wanted to make me happy.
I actually feel guilty accepting something this expensive from her.
I told her that I only earn around ₹50k a month right now, and sometimes I worry that I won’t be able to marry her or give her the life she deserves yet.
And she just told me:
**“I don’t care about the money. I care about us. I can earn too. We can earn one lakh together.”**
How the fuck do you even respond to that?
I’m not a materialistic guy. I don’t think the PS5 itself is worth ₹70,000.
But somehow, this PS5 feels like the most valuable thing I’ve ever received.
Because every time I look at it, I’m going to know that somewhere in Australia, the person I love was exhausted, working double shifts, and still thinking about how to make me happy.
I don’t know how I found this girl.
She’s 22. She’s stubborn. She’s absolutely fucking crazy for spending that much money on me when I’ve repeatedly told her not to.
And I love her more than I know how to explain.
We’re going to get married someday. I don’t know when, and I don’t know what our finances will look like by then.
But I know one thing.
I don’t need to find someone who can buy me a PS5.
I found someone who, when I was having a terrible day, thought:
**“I want to see him smile.”**
And apparently, her solution was a fucking PS5.
I still can’t process it.

Has anyone here heard any updates about the salary increment this time? Will it be delayed until October like last time, or is it expected to happen this month? Also, is there any update on the arrears? Will they be paid along with the increment, or separately?

Struggling to Switch

I’m a Full Stack Developer with 1.5+ years of experience (including a 5-month internship). I’ve worked on Java, Spring Boot, Angular, REST APIs, SQL, and have been involved across the full development lifecycle.
I’m confident in my DSA and problem-solving skills as well.
I’m looking for a switch because my current salary is ₹6.5 LPA, which I feel doesn’t reflect my responsibilities or skills.
Any advice on getting interviews, referrals, or making a successful switch with 1–2 years of experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I(23M) feel guilty for not standing up when my seniors made a sexual joke about my girlfriend (22F)

I’m a fresher at my first job, and something happened at work yesterday that’s been bothering me ever since.
A few of my senior colleagues know that I have a girlfriend who’s studying in Australia.
One senior (around 35, and the person who interviewed me) jokingly said, “We’ll go to Australia and interview her.” Everyone laughed, and I thought it was just harmless banter. Then another senior said, “What’s wrong with taking her interview?”
At that point, a third senior said to him, “There’s a difference between taking an interview and ‘taking’ someone.” It was clearly a sexual innuendo about my girlfriend.
I completely froze. They’re all much more senior than me, and I didn’t say anything. The conversation moved on, but I’ve been replaying that moment in my head ever since.
Some of my colleagues told me not to overthink it and said they were “just joking” and didn’t literally mean it. I understand that they probably weren’t trying to insult my girlfriend personally, but it still made me really uncomfortable because the joke crossed a line for me.
The worst part is the guilt. I keep thinking, “Why didn’t I say something? Why didn’t I tell them to keep my girlfriend out of the conversation?” I feel like I failed to stand up for her.
I’m even hesitant to tell my girlfriend what happened because I’m scared she’ll think I didn’t defend her or that I let people disrespect her.
If something like this happens again, I’ve already decided I’ll calmly tell them not to make jokes about my girlfriend. But I can’t stop feeling guilty about how I handled it this time.
Has anyone else frozen in a situation like this? How do you deal with the guilt afterward? And if you were in my girlfriend’s position, would you lose respect for your partner because they didn’t respond in the moment?

23M planning a chill late-night hangout in CP from 9 PM–1 AM. Walk around, chai at Netaji near Hanuman Mandir, maybe food at McD after. Looking for someone genuinely interested in good conversations and spontaneous vibes. Can pick you up too if you’re from Noida or East Delhi. Not a mass meetup, just prefer real company and people serious about showing up. DM only if actually interested.
