Visiting Coorg in Mid-July – How Bad Is the Rain Really?

Hi Everyone,

I'm planning a short trip to Coorg around mid-July and wanted to get a realistic idea of what the weather is like during that time.

I've read mixed opinions online. Some people say the monsoon makes Coorg incredibly beautiful with lush greenery and waterfalls, while others mention that heavy rain can make sightseeing and getting around difficult.

I'd love to hear from locals or anyone who has visited Coorg in July: How intense is the rainfall typically?, Does it rain all day, or are there dry windows for sightseeing?, Are popular attractions usually accessible?, Any places, activities, or viewpoints that are worth skipping during the monsoon?, Anything you'd strongly recommend adding to the itinerary because of the rains?

Also, any tips on what to pack, road conditions, or things first-time visitors often overlook would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

26M - My girlfriend’s connection with her exes is starting to bother me.. am I overthinking this?

I (26M) have been talking to this girl (26F) every single day for the past 4 months. We were schoolmates back then (she was a year junior to me) but we never really interacted much before recently. Our families also know each other pretty well since we’re from the same city.

A couple weeks ago we both finally admitted we had feelings for each other and that we wanted to explore a relationship together.

The part I’ve been struggling with is her connection with her exes.

She has two ex-boyfriends. One of them is still a very close friend of hers. Yesterday, she was talking to him about me and apparently told him something along the lines of, “Nothing is serious with him yet, let’s see how things go.” I know we’re still early into this relationship, but hearing that still bothered me a little because things have felt emotionally serious from my side.

The second ex is still actively trying to get back with her. He sends her old photos of them together, texts and calls her regularly, and clearly hasn’t moved on. She tells me she doesn’t want to get back with him, and I do believe her, but at the same time she also hasn’t fully cut ties with him, which has been making me uncomfortable.

I’m trying to figure out whether I’m genuinely overthinking this because of my own insecurities/attachment, or if these are reasonable concerns that should be addressed early on for the relationship to stay healthy.

26M - Started dating my schoolmate after months of talking, but now it feels emotionally one-sided. Am I overthinking this?

I (26M) have been talking to this girl (26F) every single day for the past 4 months. We were schoolmates back then (she was a year junior to me) but we never really interacted much before recently. Our families also know each other pretty well since we’re from the same city.

Things really got started between us in January when I surprised her with flowers for her birthday. Then we began to talk every day little by little and grew very close naturally. I asked her to be my Valentine in February, and she said yes. Then a couple weeks ago we both finally admitted we had feelings for each other and that we wanted to explore a relationship together.

The problem is that I’ve been feeling like the emotional effort has mostly been coming from my side lately. I really care about her and try to make her feel valued, heard and important, but sometimes it feels like my emotions aren’t really cared about in the same way. It’s not the big things. It’s the little things that make you feel like you’re getting something back emotionally.

What makes this harder is that I don’t know how to bring this up with her without hurting her feelings. She’s a good person, and I know a conversation like this would affect her deeply, which makes me hesitate even more. So I’ve mostly just been silently overthinking everything instead.

Am I expecting too much too early, or is this something worth addressing before I get more emotionally invested?
