How would you see the difference between asking someone to be FWB vs a Casting Couch kind of situation?

Before any judgement comes through, I'm not supporting or challenging any practices or incidents happening around.

I'm just curious about how people see the difference between these two behaviours - approaching someone for a FWB / hookup VS asking for sexual favours from a colleague or person whom you are hiring for a particular work.

Is the attitude of bartering sexual favours for work & recognition the only differentiating factor here?

How do you trust again after being emotionally used?

22F here. I was talking to a guy about a year ago and we genuinely liked each other, but things didn’t work out. I’ve since moved to another city for my master’s and moved on emotionally.

A few days ago, I found out he had been talking to three girls at the same time and was never serious about any of us. I know I missed the signs, but finding that out still hurt badly.

I’ve always been someone who dates with serious intentions, but this experience has made me question whether I’ll ever be able to trust someone new without wondering if they’re secretly manipulating me.

I also understand now why some people become hesitant to date after being hurt.

For those of you who’ve experienced something similar: how did you learn to trust again without becoming cynical about everyone you meet?

An answer everyone who wants change in the law?

Everyone on this sub, including me wants some change in the domestic violence laws, in social security laws. I feel this man has put it eloquently why that change being ushered in, isn't necessarily in the best interests of society.

I just want an honest, open discussion on this. This isn't to bait someone. Any and all comments are appreciated, hope y'all have a great day!

How do I train myself to maintain proper eye contact and stop looking at inappropriate places?

​

I've been struggling with a habit for a long time that I really want to fix. Whenever I converse with women, I find it extremely difficult to maintain steady eye contact. My gaze involuntarily shifts towards their chest/body instead of their face.

I feel a lot of guilt and embarrassment because of this, and I genuinely want to respect the people around me and improve my social behavior.

Parents giving me ₹1.5 lakh if I clear my professional exam in November – already planned 65k, what should I do with the rest?

Parents said if I pass my important professional exam (November), they’ll give me ₹1.5 lakh to spend on whatever I want. Results come in January and my birthday is just 2 days after the exam, so it’s basically a big reward + birthday gift combo.

I’m currently on a break and this is pure motivation fuel for me.

Already decided on these:

2 watches → ₹15k total

2 pairs of Nike shoes → ₹20k

Clothes → ₹30k

That’s ₹65k locked in. Leaves me with around ₹85k still.

Please don’t suggest studying harder or investing the money — already have investments sorted and I just want fun spending ideas.

What would you guys buy/spend on with the remaining ₹85k?

Or if it was your 1.5L reward, how would you allocate the whole thing?

Looking for actual purchase ideas (gadgets, experiences, travel, whatever). Drop your suggestions!

No iphone or laptop ideas already got one

Why is it that only indian women start seeking western validation whenever a crime against one of them happens?

Like they do they know how brutal japanese and koreans are when it comes to committing crimes against their women. Or even pakistanis. Yet you will never see them go to see them seek western validatiom or cry infront of them. Yeah korea has 4b but they dont try to seek white feminist validation for it. They do it for themselves. Its like indian women love being romanticised as a victim and wanting to get saved by some disney prince which have been white historically which i am not complaining about. But you have to wonder if they really want to improve things or wanna stay in constant cycle of victim syndrome so that they can get feel validate westerners. When best they do i am sorry for you online kek

How Easy is it for Asian Women to Marry Indian Men?

I'm a 24 yo Asian woman (Chinese-Indonesian). For the past few months, I've realized that I've been attracted a lot to Indian men. I occasionally go to Bali and KL where it's very touristic and I've been on dates with several Indian men. Nevertheless, from those dates, I've realized that, India has such a family-centric tradition and usually their family will prefer them to marry Indian women too. I feel sad knowing that I go on dates with them just as a short fling and never as someone they will consider into marrying. My question is, is it possible for me to marry into India culture?

Supreme court now supports women adultery too?

The #SupremeCourt has raised serious concerns over unregulated private investigators after a husband submitted 92 videos and 237 photographs to allege adultery against his estranged wife in a maintenance dispute.

In Himanshu Chordia v. State of Rajasthan & Anr., the husband relied on Section 125(4) CrPC to contest maintenance. While the Court said his defence must be examined on merits, it questioned how the evidence was collected, whether investigators had legal authority, how private data was stored, and whether electronic material could be manipulated.

The Bench also flagged privacy and surveillance concerns and asked the Ministry of #Law and #Justice and the Law Commission of India to consider a proper regulatory framework for private detective agencies.

If adultery can affect #maintenance, the law must also provide a lawful and practical way to prove it.

Why i get gay's attention?

​

I'm a straight guy who too wants girls' attention and wants girls to approach me, but instead I get gay guys' attention. Like yesterday, I was at the Chandigarh railway station bus stop and a gay guy was standing right beside me and giving me looks, like secretly looking at me. I felt uncomfortable asf. Those looks and body language were all over. After some time, he somehow reached me and asked for some help about bus routes to Zirakpur, when the whole bus stop was already filled with people. I helped tho.

There is also this guy who is secretly gay keep on commenting how i got a preety face

I'm not homophobic in any way, but is there anything in me that gives them those vibes? I'm quite confused.
