Haven’t chopped it in 1.6 years. Suggest a hairstyle?

28F
I have a lot of hair anxiety because my hair is very weird. It’s wavy and often very frizzy so every haircut looks the same. Everything looks weird and poofy. I have never met a hairstylists who understands my hair and cuts it the way it would suit my hair. So it’s always layers and I’m out of ideas.

Recently I just took some scissors and cut the ends in a straight line. Haven’t done much. Would appreciate some help understanding my hair and which haircut would actually give me some dimension or something rmthing. Sorry about the dirty mirror .

Haven’t been cooking much lately but made what I love to call a basic burger

Had some minced chicken so I thought why not. This was way too simple. Blinkit ran out of lettuce and gherkins or I’d have them too but honestly with some mayo and masala in it, it was quite good just as it is.

Need a Bollywood night. Big time

I just realised that the last time I danced to my hearts content was a year ago, with my girls on a Goa trip we planned. It was the most amazing night ever. I’m wondering if there’s a club in Gurgaon that has Bollywood night. I’m not a house, trap, whatever person. I need good ole chatpate gaane and a safe space. Maybe a ladies night suggestion if any place hosts it also would be awesome.

I remember going to wine company they used to have Monday’s as ladies night but the music was pretty boring.

Any suggestions?

Last resort ish? Brand managers / creatives in advertising, if you’re here - please read?

If you’re in advertising right now you know how fucked everything is. Bigger global agencies have merged and dissolved mostly all the big names and it’s very chaotic.

So here’s why I’m writing to you. A bunch of super talented, zealous writers I know are looking to switch to either any other agency that has some vision to do good award winning work and actually has the space for good creatives to grow, or any brand that’s looking for talented creatives who bring the same zeal and love for the craft to your brand after years of training in an agency.

If you can either give a referral where you are or are hiring for creatives at a mid senior level, let me know. I’ll send you their credentials according to the JD and role.

Trust me, i know some very talented writers - all with something absolutely unique to offer - we’re at one of the biggest agency in the country right now and we want out.

Remote / Hybrid would just be stellar but wfo is fine too

Any brokers who can get me a place that doesn’t look like it’s a marble ad?

Are there any brokers left in gurgaon who are not giving you marble plastered builder slop?

I’m 28F looking for houses right now and I’m so tired of looking at rubbish houses that look like badly designed hotel rooms with marble flooring, ceiling, furniture. I swear if they could they’d plaster marble on their faces too.

My god. Is there no broker left who is renting out houses that don’t look like this or an actual old house with some character.

And don’t even get me started on the unavailability of houses that have a kitchen that 2 grown people can move around in.

If you know a broker who can actually get you a house that is not marble like in a decent place like maybe south city sec 30 or something where houses look like they’re built well and are a bit old too, please can you send me their number

Is it just me or is every piece of clothing made for women with smaller boobs now?

I’m a 28F and lean towards a bigger chest size, and I absolutely love shopping but recently I’ve realised there are little to NO clothes for women with bigger busts and I’m so enraged because wtf.

Why is every t shirt cropped. Why is everything designed in a way to fit small chested women better. And worse, why is everything literally a child’s size. Who are they even designing clothes for. They are even designed to look good on smaller chested girls. I got a t shirt that fits me like a crop top and this is the biggest size 😭😭

The lack of actual good t shirts that aren’t cropped, the lack of dresses that fit bigger chest sizes, the lack of tops that are so deep that I wear them look like a hooker has me absolutely frustrated. I am so tired of trying on clothes everywhere and get disappointed. Also side note - why tf is everything polyester. What is this garbage.

And the brands that do make clothes that fit bigger busted girls better are either so boring in their designs or are exponentially expensive.

The only two brands left that don’t disappoint me are Westside and H&M (to an extent) but the quality at H&M is also getting worse day by day

Is it just me or is every other bigger chested girl facing the same issue?

Went for a walk and got gawked at like I was a piece of meat.

Posted a question about runners yesterday and where you guys run. Something told me I shouldn’t explore farther than my own colony first. Because I’ve never gone for a walk in Ggn and I wanted to be in proximity to my apartment in case I wanted to to back.

So I went for a walk around sec 43 and felt immediately uncomfortable because men wouldn’t stop staring at a girl just walking.

I’m from Bombay and I miss the fact that people don’t give a shit about you in Bombay. If you’re walking on the road no one could care less. I went out here and felt IMMEDIATELY stared at, men turned to stare literally, I mean what’s so surprising about a girl walking.

And before y’all say “what were you wearing” I was wearing an oversized t shirt and linen pants. It’s literally insane to me that women go outdoors for runs and walks here. This was incredibly creepy. I think I’m just going to stick to working out at home.

Being a woman is like a humiliation ritual constantly like we can’t even exist in peace. I’m so done.

Runners of Gurgaon - where do you go and what time?

I’m a 28F looking to start running again and I want to find a route that’s just crowded enough to run and most importantly safe too. I intend to go in the morning but depending on my schedule I can definitely go in the evening as well so I’m wondering if there are specific routes around sector 43 that are clean and open enough to run or even just take a walk.

I did check out some parks nearby recently but it doesn’t seem like it’s suitable to run long hours.

If not around this sector, I’d be happy to have more suggestions too. Don’t mind taking a cab to go a little farther as long as it’s safe and clean.

Help a girl out. Pls?

Feeling extremely overwhelmed and lost. I need to tell someone about this.

I (28F) am writing this because I really don’t know what else to do. Everything just feels like TOO MUCH. It’s been happening more and more intensely lately where everything from work, to commuting, to cooking myself a meal, to my boyfriend have been overwhelming and overstimulating to me. I’m always exhausted, i over sleep every single day and can’t bring myself to wake up on time and do anything outside work and being home and just survive. I feel constantly tired even after sleeping this much and I feel completely overwhelmed with these feelings.

Some more details: my job is stressful and it was been a very intense 1.5 years of doing multiple long hours almost daily and even over weekends. I’m in a creative field (advertising) and it’s just expected to just work like a dog and for the sake of my career I did but I think it’s finally taking a toll. I don’t even remember the last time I got a weekend to myself where I was not working. It’s been a hellish experience and I’m burnout terribly.

I know that my job is my core stressor but I think it’s spilling everywhere into my life and messing things up big time. For instance, my boyfriend of 2 years who is the sweetest, most considerate person on the planet, his presence has been overstimulating me. For some context, he joined my workplace a few months ago, and since his home is away from office he sometimes crashes at mine for almost the entire week. We are also on the same team. Him being over, being at work, being everywhere has been feeling like too much and I don’t know how to communicate my feelings without hurting his.

My colleagues who i absolutely adore have been feeling like stressors to me because they’re loud, and speak over each other and go for a smoke 20 times a day and drag me along. All the socialising has been feeling utterly draining.

Moreover, I am the breadwinner of my family back in my hometown and my parents have reached an age where they’re going to retire and the stress of managing their finances along with mine and managing them, their expectations about me getting married soon and some other issues and messes I have to clean up for them is also a CONSTANT. I’m the invisible kid who gets all the responsibilities without any respite or consideration or even so much as “how are YOU doing”

I don’t have time for decompressing from everything and when I get a minute to myself I spiral because I have chores and meal prep and laundry and endless things to do.

Every single thing is causing me to feel completely overwhelmed and I can feel my brain shut down. I am writing here because I am unable to see an out out of these feelings. I can’t for the first time in my life, figure out how to cope. I’m just scared, tired and anxious and constantly overwhelmed. It’s making me angry. It’s making me sad. It makes me come off as a meanie and I haven’t been feeling like initiating any kind of intimacy w my boyfriend too. I feel so drained and tired and I really need some help or any suggestions on how to deal with everything.

Mastered the art of almond milk coffee

Came here to show off my almond milk iced coffee that I absolutely NAILED and no you don’t need fancy coffee for this.

Take an instant coffee you like. Take 1 tbsp coffee and 1tbsp sugar, add very little hot water to it. The water should be 10% of your mug you’re making this in. Not more. 30 ML ish.

Then mix mix and beat the shit out of it to make it thicker. It helps if you have a frother. This will double the quantity. Then add ice and shake it so the ice can chill it and pour almond milk over it as per your taste. Don’t pour more first. Check the colour of the coffee and taste it and see how you like it. I like mine strong so I add little almond milk enough to make it a caramel brown colour. Enjoy!

P.S sometimes I add some vanilla syrup in it. Around 1 tbsp

Day off, and I don’t wanna waste it. Any suggestions

Life has been life-ing lately and today feels like I’ve got a day to myself to finally breathe, and slow down and I don’t want to waste it. I was wondering if anyone knows a nice place in gurgaon or even Delhi to just go sit and read, a cool library or a coffee shop that has good coffee and doesn’t blare music.

I just want to sit, read my book, maybe draw a little, have some coffee and stay out of the heat. This girl needs a reset day.

Any suggestions are welcome 🥰

Hey guys. I’m at 28F who’s just going to be joining a company that needs me to fly to Bengaluru every quarter to be in office for a week.

I don’t make much and most of what I make goes into savings and family

I’m stressing out over this completely because it’s thrown off all my savings plans and i am based out of Delhi right now so flying down every quarter will basically be like 45k a year + hotels.

I don’t want to spend this much on stay. Any advice will help. How do I plan this stay?

Thank you so much in advance

I’m a 28F and my partner is 34M, we’ve been together for 2 years now and it’s been going great. He’s perfect and so much fun, and the sweetest man ever except sometimes his ADHD becomes too much for me to handle.

He’s hyperactive, all the time and talks a lot and fast. Usually this isn’t a concern for me, but when I wake up in the morning, we have different routines. He’s up and immediately active. I need silence to just process everything after having been woken up. I need to quietly eat my breakfast but he needs coffee and doom scrolling. Since we sit in the same vicinity and he’s over most of the time now, he shows me content in the morning. I don’t have it in me to be like “I don’t want to see this right now” but it really overwhelms me a lot.

I hate loud noises and sometimes he’s the loudest noise in the house. I want to communicate this without lashing out and I say this because I know that it overstimulates me to a point of anger sometimes. It’s like when my house is dirty and I can feel the dust on my feet and get sensory overload and hence angry - that feeling, but every time my partner speaks to me in his pace especially in the mornings.

I am finding it very hard to bring myself to communicate this and do it patiently and politely. I love him so much but Imscared of making it vocal because I might hurt him. I am not very good with wording things and sometimes come off as blunt (typical autistic problem tbh)

Please help. Has anyone else faced this in their relationships.
