Single woman moving back to India, looking to connect with fellow sisters!
Hi everyone! I'm 27F, single, and probably going to be single for a while -- and, if I'm being honest, a little nervous about moving back to India.
I have spent the last five years in the US, where I did my masters and I am currently on my H1B. I don't dislike life here, but somewhere along the way it has started feeling a little too monotonous and I've lost my sense of purpose. I also don't see myself staying in corporate for the long term, so I'm ready to be curious about what comes next.
I am planning to move back to India this year, with Bangalore as my first choice. The part that makes me nervous is coming from a small town where there's a bit of pressure around marriage and a fairly traditional mindset. After five years of living independently, I know I don't want to go back to that kind of life. I am not looking to get married anytime soon, partly because I'm still getting over my ex and mostly because I genuinely want to spend some time figuring out my own life first.
So I'd really love to meet other women who are in a similar phase of life -- late twenties and generally trying to build a life back home that feels like their own.
Would love to make some genuine, long-term friendships along the way. I feel like this particular stage of life can be surprisingly lonely, especially with switching countries again, and it would be nice to navigate it with people who get it. ❤️
