First time travel to Kolkata from US. Will I be able to take out Indian Rupees from an ATM machine in the airport, using my US debit cart? What's the best way to get Indian Rupees: go to an exchange booth with credit card or get money out from an ATM machine? Or, should I get rupees from my bank in the US (very high fees)? Also, same question regarding taking out cash in small towns.

21M looking for a mixed group to go clubbing this puja, any groups dm me

Please guide me. I live in a family, in with my parents, from a village town near Bangladesh. My parents have history of promiscuity. When I was in class 9, I first caught my mother sexting with my physics teacher at late nights, 1AM, 2AM, 3AM... Then as a naive I busted. Then I got to know stories and stuff done by my father as well, long before, although all of those were not as concrete but I could sense the thing. Now they once again live together, and act as if we are all very happy family. And expect me to respect them. My family has already shattered, I do not like them at all. I hate this drama or whatever they do now. It's been 7-8 years now. I don't have any friends or any extended family, because my mother is a single child and father's family made property issues (basically stole from us). My parents were also very controlling since I was a kid, so I never made friends, and relationships. Recently I got into a relationship last year from reddit but I blew it off, all because of my lust and my own fault. And I don't find any other reason to live anymore. I feel love or the caring, I hate what care they give me, I oppose it knowingly, sometimes I did that to ex gf as well, because she used to love me mostly unconditionally, which I never understood why and how. So, tell me what's the point of living? What is life for? To enjoy? What is enjoying? I am having discussion about this with a junior of mine now, but not able to find any answer. The only reason I am not dead yet, because he told me one thing, we don't know post death consequences, and that pain can be even greater than this pain. I also did not understand feelings until recently. Like I felt my chest getting heavy, but recently I watched some videos of Dr. K explaining, that this is the feeling of sadness. So, the question is, what is love? what is enjoying? what is the point of life? Whom to live for? Is it even worth it to live in India as a man, just for another woman?

Please don't be toxic, I know this is a public platform and I must be ready for all you throw at me. But please, this is a humble request, if possible just guide me. I am very tired.

I earn 3 Lakhs a month, but my father is just above begger, so there is no savings or nothing that I can buy a house or something. And I am also a fresher, so this current job is my probation period and I can be sacked next year if I don't get promoted. So, I cannot throw away money here and there. I work from home, so no office or anything.
