24F | Looking for genuine female friends 🫶

I’m 24F and looking to make some genuine female friends. I’d especially love to connect with fellow North Kannadigas because the slang, humour and the way we talk just hits differently 🤌😂
I’m looking for someone who can match my vibes, have random conversations, hang out, go for coffee/food, share memes and just be there without things feeling forced.
Not looking for anything superficial just genuine friendship and good vibes🙌

My Chocolate Labrador Lashley was Abandoned without my knowledge. I'm Still Looking for Him.

This post is a part of my final attempt to find my chocolate labrador lashley who was abandoned 5 years ago by my father. I will first post a short introduction before explaining lashley's story in detail.

About Lashley:

Chocolate Labrador Retriever

Nicknames: Boochie, Dachaley, Laboli

Distinctive white patch on his chest also known as bolo marks

Age when he was abandoned - 3 1/2 years old

Current age - 8 to 9 years old

Last known area: Domlur, Bengaluru (near Jogupalya, Indiranagar & Ulsoor)

If anyone living in Bangalore recognizes him, knows someone who might have adopted him, or have any information at all—even if it seems insignificant—please leave a comment or contact me through WhatsApp/call +91 8660826795

Detailed explanation of what actually happened & why he was abandoned

Back in 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic, my family was going through a very difficult time financially and personally. Also during this time my father was suffering from severe chronic depression and other mental issues. After some time we had just moved to a new house, so my dad left Lashley to stay at my grandmother's house and claimed he would bring him to our new house. My father told me he would bring him to our new home once everything settled down. But few months passed by and this did not happen. During that time I used to visit him during the weekends. Some of the pics & videos i have posted here are during that time

So one day without my knowledge, according to my grandmother's account he claimed to take lashley for a walk and when he had returned lashley wasn't there with him. When he was asked about it he told her he had sold it or given it to someone but did not mention the specifics like to whom. When he came home he did not tell us about this. A few days later, my father took his own life at my grandmother's house. It was only then that we found out. During that time, our family was consumed by the shock, grief , funeral, legal matters, and everything that followed after my father's death so our thoughts were consumed by this and finding lashley wasnt at the forefront of our minds I also did not want to disturb my mother and other family members by bringing this up.

After some time we decided to search for lashley but had no idea where he went or with whom he was. We visited some well known breeders and rescue organisations but couldn't find him. Also found out that my father had also given away lashley's vaccination certificates & other things like prescriptions from the vets. So i had lost hope and finally decided that it was almost impossible to ever see him again. I loved him so much and wanted to be with him till his final years this was what made it so bad. I couldn't even see him to wish him a final goodbye before he left me. He was an extremely expressive and affectionate lab who always loved to be around me. I can't imagine how panicked and lost he must have felt after he was given away. He loved me like no other dog ever did. So I just suppressed those memories and went on with my life. But it just didn't work. For the past few months I have been feeling intense regret that I didn't do enough to find him, that I had in a way betrayed him. I kept dreaming about him regularly - both positive and disturbing dreams. So i finally decided I need to make a final and serious attempt to find him before he leaves this world. I want to be with him through his final years.

My search efforts will be both offline and online - I will visit every rescue organisation, veterinary clinics , breeders, pet boarding schools and kennels in my city. I will also be creating pages on every social media platform where I will be documenting and updating my search efforts. Even if the search fails i atleast get to preserve lashley's memories and get to tell his story to many. Hope this post wasn't too long. Thank you for reading

Are hookups really that common?

21F, been on reddit for some time, people posting successful hookups via Hinge etc, or people posting about their experience. Both men and women posting and bragging about finding a hot guy/gal and ending up in their apartment after a 2 hour date. Some other girls post that they somehow got convinced to be physical after 2-3 dates and regretted it later. Instagram already says that many hookups are common in tier 1 cities. But is it just hyperinflated by the 80-100 people hooking up with each other or what? Not been in a genuine relationship here ever, and afraid I'll be used rather than loved. All this already scares me to use dating apps. Please don't DM, I am not up for dating but considering for a year or 2 later. Can we find old school love again? 🥲

Edit: People in DMs seem to think I am interested just by my question, read the post man! Not interested in anyone. Just asking if they are faking or what ....

Should I take take ₹20k “AI lead” at a slow non-profit or gamble on a shaky startup dream?

So hi folks, I am 2025 B. Tech CSE grad, who has been trying to get a job ever since 1 Year. Now to give you a little overviews, I am working with an AI startup which is remote and bootstraped. But the work is a bit slow there and since it is bootstraped, I'm not getting paid much(10k) and don't even know if it ever be a full time thing. Soo i took it as a time being considering the situation the market is in.

Now I recently got an offer through contacts to work in a non profit skill institute. They wanna set up an AI lab for which they wanted to hire me. In their words they wanna learn "AI". Now, the skill institute has courses like mobile reparing, solar power repairing, electrical repairing ,drone etc.For a normal non tech person learning AI is also learning chatgpt and claude upto his full potential. Learning AI is also designing systems..

So the thing that I proposed was to integrate AI in their course and to learn AI tools which are related to the specific skill. And possibly take a workshop level business related course which teaches them claude and promt engineering.

They want me full time, are offering me 20k. And AI will be my department. I wouldn't have many people questioning me what and how I am doing things.

Now there is honestly not much to do there, like the process are all slow.. I dont know how much will I even be learning. even they said things are slow here. I am doing the AI startup simultaneously as well because if I ever get into Tech, I wanna have that as experience because ultimately I wanna build systems.

I feel lost here. Not sure if joining the non profit is a good idea. The AI startup did say that we could put you up with the client and subsequently there would be in an increase in salary as I will be working on clients payroll. But again they can't promise anything permanent or stable. When I said that I will be join the non profit org, they were fine with it but did say that they won't be putting me up with a client since that would require additional time.

I don't have anything in my hand at the moment which is stable. And I am tired of having sleepless nights thinking i don't have anything stable.

I just don't feel very proud of myself or feel like doing anything. I feel like this is not what I was supposed to do. Dabbling in 20-30k.

So i don't know what to do. Is non profit a good idea for my career at this moment.

33F, unmarried and looking beyond my age group

​

I’m a 33-year-old unmarried woman and lately I’ve realised that conversations with people around my age often come with the same set of opinions and advice. At times it feels like everyone has a similar perspective on relationships marriage career and life in general. I’d really like to step outside that familiar age bracket and meet people from different generations who can bring a completely different perspective.

I’m not specifically looking for dating or anything with an agenda. I’m simply interested in making genuine friends and having open mindful conversations with people in their 20s 40s 50s or even beyond. Sometimes a conversation with someone from a completely different stage of life can be far more interesting than talking to someone who has lived almost the exact same experiences.

If you enjoy meaningful conversations sharing experiences discussing random things or simply having a good chat without judging each other based on age I’d be happy to connect.
