I graduated in CSE in 2024 and have a two-year gap due to confusion in life. I wasted my time during my B.Tech days. I always aimed for a good placement and focused a lot on DSA but lacked development skills, which is why I didn't get a job. Sometimes, I would qualify for job rounds and then get rejected in the final stages. Due to fear of unemployment, I then switched to government job preparation, and then back to DSA for private jobs. I prepared for the 2026 GATE exam for only three months and scored only 25 marks, which is not good. Afterward, I joined a company that uses PeopleSoft software (out dated technology). After 1.5 months, I left that job and finally decided to prepare for GATE 2027. I have already prepared three to four subjects. Is this a good decision, or am I just overthinking?

Free to listen to your hectic day and your problems and try to give advice from my perspective.

I'm 23M and I'm afraid to communicate with girls. I always think that if I make the first move, I'll come across as a creep, so I wait for the other person to make the first move. That has resulted in me having no female friends, and now my whole college life has ended. How can I overcome this fear?

Planning to visit Sidewalk Lucknow today, suggest some best drinks and food, not regular coffees like cappuccino, mocha, etc.
