I 23M had a sex recently 4-5 days ago I'm in FWB she is 23f. But I didn't enjoy that much last time I don't know the reason even the 1st half was quite well but then something went off and I didn't enjoy the rest. After coming back home I feel like having sex so I masturbated and now it's only been a week I want to have sex again. We live in different cities and I'm masturbating from the last 4-5 days regularly at night.

My brother (29M) is getting married next year, probably around November. I’m 24M, his younger brother, and I want to take responsibility for as much of the wedding as I possibly can.

This is the first wedding in our family, and honestly, I want to make it an incredibly wholesome, thoughtful and memorable experience not just a big event.

The wedding is a love marriage, and unfortunately, some people on both sides of the family aren’t completely okay with it. My father is also not fully supportive, which makes things a little complicated. Because of that, I’m trying to be careful about family dynamics while still making sure my brother and Bhabhi feel genuinely loved and celebrated.

I’ve basically decided that I don’t want other people’s opinions (family or relatives ) to stop me from doing something meaningful for them. At the same time, I don’t want to create unnecessary conflict or make anyone uncomfortable.

I have almost a full year to plan, so I want to think about EVERYTHING from the obvious wedding arrangements to the tiny details people usually overlook.

Things like- Meaningful surprises for my brother and Sister in law,

Small gifts or handwritten letters, Family traditions worth starting, Making the bride feel welcomed into our family

Things I can secretly arrange for my brother

Cute/emotional moments during the wedding

Guest experience

Pre-wedding events

Photography/video ideas

Things to prepare months in advance

Little details for the wedding day

Something they can keep as a memory for years

Ways to involve both families without forcing anything

Things a younger brother can do that would actually mean something to the couple

I’m not looking for just extravagant or expensive ideas. Thoughtful > expensive.

I genuinely want to be the brother who looks back years later and thinks, “I did everything I could to make my brother’s wedding special.”

So, if you’ve attended/planned a wedding, what are some things you wish someone had thought of? What small details made a wedding genuinely memorable for you?

Give me EVERYTHING even the tiny, ridiculous, emotional, wholesome ideas. 😂

I’ve got one year. I want to make it count. ❤️

I'm 23M year old I'm from Delhi India. I completed my BSC in biotechnology and took a drop then gave my NEET this year taking BDS currently in between counseling. Well honestly I don't want to buy left with no other choice. Everything has its own challenges but medicine is something I genuinely want to do I feel good when someone gets a smile cause of me. My plan is to go outside after bds.

What would you do if your ex was going through a problem and reached out to you for help?( Emotional support )

I 23M and she 22F were in a relationship for a year LDR which is ended around 3 months ago, and you've already decided to move on. Then your ex suddenly contacts you saying she's going through a lot, doesn't want to deal with everything alone, and wants you to be there to hold her, support her, and help her get through it. She needs emotional support and also said "i genuinely need your help".

You still care about her as a person, but you know that getting emotionally involved again could reopen everything you worked hard to move past. What should I do ? I do care as a human but don't want to push my boundaries that I made to protect myself.

I (23M) met a girl (22F) on Telegram in September 2024. At that time, I was preparing for the NEET exam. I had commented on a random video about that year's NEET cutoff, which was extremely high. I had missed the cutoff by just 20 marks.

Her cousin replied to my comment and asked me to DM her. We started talking on Instagram, and she asked me to contact her sister, who was also preparing for NEET. I shared my Telegram ID, and the next day she messaged me there.

Initially, we talked mostly about academics, but to save time she suggested that we talk over a call instead of texting. She called me on Telegram, and during that conversation she shared a lot about her life. She told me that she was the elder one in her family, that her father had passed away many years ago, that she suffered from migraines, and that she had been dealing with depression for the past two years. Because of all this, she hadn't appeared for the exam that year, although she had scored well in 2023.

I also shared my side of the story, and we gradually became good friends. As time passed, we helped each other with study strategies, test schedules, doubts, questions, and motivation. Apart from academics, we also talked about our lives. Over the next four to five months, we got to know a lot about each other. There was a strong sense of comfort and mutual respect between us. We used to share silly things, and I often sent her sketches and doodles. Every day we shared our study targets and discussed how much we had accomplished by the end of the day.

In March 2025, her younger sister passed away. Everything collapsed again. She stopped replying to my messages and calls. After waiting for four or five days, I contacted her cousin, who told me what had happened. She had lost all her momentum again. Somehow, she still tried to prepare during the last month before the exam.

I tried to support and reassure her in every possible way. At the same time, things were difficult for me too, so I usually messaged her once or twice a day after returning home from the library. My exam went well, and I got into a government medical college (GMC), but she couldn't clear the exam.

She messaged me just 40 minutes after my exam ended. From our conversation, I could tell that her exam hadn't gone well. When I told her mine had gone well, I tried to be there for her while also giving her the space she needed. Since we were from different states, I couldn't meet her in person, although I did ask if I could. She said she was happy for me and joked that she would take a party from me whenever we finally met.

We stayed in touch, and I used to call her every two or three days.

After the results, we had a few conversations over the next 10–15 days. Then I got busy with counseling and admissions. Once I officially got my college, I called her again. We talked about many things. At that time, she hadn't taken admission anywhere. When I asked her about her plans, she said she didn't know what to do.

From December 2025 until now, we have remained in contact. In 2026, she finally took admission in a different course that she genuinely wanted instead of preparing for NEET again. Before making that decision, we had many discussions about her career options. When she finally decided, she told me I was the first person she informed.

She has told me things she says she has never shared with anyone else. She says she feels comfortable with me, never feels judged, and can completely be herself around me.

In February 2026, she asked me how I saw our bond. I told her that, for me, it was based on respect and care, and that helping her came naturally to me.

On another day, during a call, she sarcastically said, "Your mom will probably not like me because I've failed at everything."

Another time, she told me that she loved talking to me. Then one day she asked, "Have you ever thought about taking this forward?"

I told her that I had never asked because I didn't want to ruin what we already had. I said, "What if I ask you, and you don't feel the same?"

She replied, "What if I say I feel the same?"

I told her that if she said that, I would be really happy, but I also said that she should probably know me better before making that decision.

Her reply was, "Knowing you more won't change my mind."

That conversation happened about a month ago.

However, ever since then, whenever I bring up meeting in person or going on a date, she avoids the conversation. She says she's waiting for the right time.

What do you think I should do? Do you think she genuinely loves me, is confused, is emotionally attached, or could she have met someone else in college? What do you think is actually going on, and how should I approach this situation?

Need advice.

My elder brother is getting married in a few months. Dec this year. I'm so happy for him but I'm also afraid of the bond we have shared till now. Like we are too close to each other he is like a gem and I feel so blessed to have a brother like him. He helped me in every possible way and supported me in everything like during my drop years and when things got so tough my whole family was not my side but he still supported me. I'm telling this to tell the respect and bond we have

But now as I told you he is going to marry in a few months it's a love marriage which is arranged by us both. Like we set up the online profile of my brother and match up with my future sister in law. So for everyone it's an arranged marriage but only we know it's a love marriage.

What I am afraid of is shifting the priorities after marriage like I've heard people say that after marriage, sibling relationships change, family dynamics change, priorities shift, and sometimes things are never quite the same.

So from my side what should I be aware of and mentally prepare about. What should be the line for me ? What should be the rules that I should not cross. And anything you guys can help me out. Or am I just thinking too much ?

I'm a 23M, and she's 22F. We met at our coaching institute while preparing for an exam. We've been close friends for about 1.5 years. Around 5 months ago, we both realized that we liked each other romantically. We talked about it openly, and I told her I liked her. She said she felt the same, so we started dating.

Our relationship has been slow and respectful. We haven't gotten into anything physical beyond kissing and hugging because we're both comfortable taking things at our own pace. We genuinely care about each other, support one another, and I honestly enjoy being with her.

The problem is that our expectations of a relationship are different.

For her, dating someone means she's dating with the intention of marrying that person. She believes that if you enter a relationship, you should already know that you want to marry them.

For me, it's different. I really like her and I want to be in a committed relationship with her. I can promise loyalty, honesty, and that I'll give my best to make the relationship work. But I can't honestly promise marriage right now because I'm only 23, we're both still building our lives, and I genuinely don't know what I'll want years from now.

It's not that I don't see a future with her. If, over time, our relationship grows and naturally leads to marriage, I'd be happy with that. I just don't feel comfortable making that promise at the very beginning when I'm not 100% sure. I feel like that would be unfair to both of us.

Now I'm stuck. I don't want to lose her because I really care about her, but I also don't want to make a promise that I'm not certain I can keep.

Am I being unreasonable? Is it wrong to want a serious, committed relationship without being able to guarantee marriage from day one? Has anyone else been in a similar situation, and how did you handle it?
