The thing is, times have changed a lot. Before the 1990s, most families lived quite modest lives and earned through what they had as generational businesses, agriculture, or any sort of family occupation.

But then the trend of white-collar jobs arrived. Everyone wanted to move to the cities and build something big. Women and families also started choosing men who lived far away from the villages because of the kind of misogyny and judgmental attitudes that exist in villages, as we all know. They wanted to breathe some fresh air of independence. Things were great for most of our parents’ generation. Nuclear families became common, and things were manageable even with a single earning partner. Parents were able to buy their own big houses without becoming slaves to 25-year house EMIs the way our generation has.

Then came the boom in female education and opportunities, and the gap between men and women’s education and career aspirations began to shrink. Now we have reached a point where even if you are earning ₹1 lakh per month in hand, it feels like peanuts. Just rent + electricity is crossing ₹30,000+ in good localities of Delhi-NCR. Add the cost of children’s education and skyrocketing housing prices even in a mediocre locality, a 3BHK easily costs up to ₹3 crore. Forget about buying an independent duplex. A man, no matter how hard he tries, can no longer afford a non-working wife. Either the couple will remain lower-middle-class forever, or they will have to live well below their means.

And one more thing: having a career and control over your own money is such a blessing. You don’t have to keep asking your spouse for even basic things. Even if you are an extremely beautiful person, just 8-10 months after marriage (or at most a year), all of that fades. He will get bored of you. What will keep your worth in his eyes is either your caring behaviour or the money you bring to the table. He will definitely say, “Main kamata hoon, tum karti kya ho ghar mein saara din.”

Chivalry is also declining because this generation of men has grown up seeing women getting the same opportunities they have to climb the career ladder. Unlike before, when most girls used to leave their studies after 12th grade and college was a dream for many.

This is the harsh reality.

Since she was busy in her work from past two weeks and just today she got a bit rest and less hectic schedule, I decided to poke her and might be facing consequences soon😭😭😭😂😂
Also had posted the same post before but had to delete it for some reason
sorry had to repost this thing, absolutely in crazy love with her 😭😭❤️❤️

Ya sirf 15 sal ki ladkia kisi adhed umar ke dokre ko kuch bolde toh wohi cultural shock hota hai 🤓☝️

This is what really happens when you turn 20💔

Lately I’ve been noticing how almost every woman just seems genuinely beautiful to me.

Not in a weird way more like I appreciate the little things. The way someone smiles, how soft and feminine some women look, or how caring and warm their energy feels. Different styles, different features, it doesn’t matter. I just find myself thinking “she seems really lovely.”

It’s happening so often that I’m starting to joke that men must be able to ovulate, because this feels like a lot 😭

what are your favourite alcohol brands ?
Been really devouring cherrapunji since ive been back from meghalaya recently and I absolutely love it.

So this happened during my college Teacher's Day celebration (5th Sept 2025). We were having a class celebration where all the ma'ams and sirs came in individually and we played games with them. We were the "cool" class, so there were 4 faculties present: our current class ma'am, 2 sirs, and my previous sem class ma'am.

Now, I kind of had a huge crush on my previous sem ma'am. She was only about 8 years older than me, and my close female friend (along with a few other classmates) definitely knew about it.

The game was simple: 2 people come on stage and say 2 unknown things about each other. I was already on stage with a random girl from my class. My female friend secretly called that girl over, whispered something in her ear, and sent her back.

The girl looked at me and asked on mic, "Bata du sab ke samne?"

Being the overly confident guy I am, I said, "Yeah sure, no problem!" I honestly thought I was being open-minded and had absolutely zero clue what she was about to drop.

Mind you, my "crush ma'am" was standing right in between us acting as the host of the game.

The girl takes a breath and announces to the entire room: "[My Name] has a huge crush on [ma'am's name]!"

The WHOLE class erupted laughing. I was so insanely embarrassed and shy I literally ran to my seat. My friends immediately started teasing me saying the ma'am was blushing when she heard it.

To make it worse, my current sem class ma'am looked at me and joked, "Agar age gap jyada nahi lag raha to kuchh bat kare?" And one of the sirs just casually chimed in, "Ha wese ma'am achhi to he..."

Dude, I was dying of embarrassment but secretly kind of happy in my head.

The aftermath? The crush ma'am actually texted me later! Normally she used to send all the classwork to another student, but after this incident, she started sending it directly to me and started talking to me in this completely different, teasing tone!

twist though: I found out a bit later that she was married!!!

EDIT: That quirky question by my class ma'am and sir was in personal they came to my bench and said personally to me not in front of class! sorry if you all imagined it that way!

Honestly Inhe kya problem hai agar kisi aur ko problem nahi hai toh

Not everyone is lucky to be born in a rich family who can afford food in plane

People will comment then if they're poor why are they travelling by plane, first of all you didn't pay for their seat, secondly no one else is having a problem other than you

And honestly most people who have boarded a flight atleast once have eaten home made food in plane

Honestly this eating thing is not even coming under civic sence, as in plane also people eat plane food and that also has a certain smell

Honestly be it be rich, poor, educated, illiterate, most people in India doesn't know a shit about civic sence

So I never realised that this happened until recently when we got the new definition of the word. What was shocking that this happened in CANADA and not even India. I wanted to order a cup of coffeee and the white lady asked for my name, she then went ahead and picked a PLASTIC cup to bring me my coffee. She did this AFTER getting my name. Imagine the level of low casteism stooped to that even a starbucks in Canada isn't inclusive anymore. IFYKYK.
