You know what's sexy? Effort. In every relationship,effort is what stands out. Every relationship needs it,and I hate how we've made it seem like a difficult,negative word. Effort doesn't always mean big shows of love and empathy,effort is made up of the small things that you do.
Women in Bangalore,how do you travel to the airport for those 6am flights? Do you go earlier in the night,or do you have a designated driver who you trust,or do you think it's ok to travel by cab at 3am to the airport?
(don't want men telling me "it isn't so bad,nothing happens")
I like it when people text you after hanging out saying they had fun spending time with you. It's something I always do with the people I choose to meet. I don't know if it is expecting a lot, but it's definitely something that means a lot to me.
Omg Gabbar back with his views on women and money oooooh takes me back to that time in 2012-13 when he said people like me should continue blogging because that was enough of a career for someone with a pretty face ???
so i went on this date & it was cute & all that but the best, most 'my ❤️ has melted & idk how to live anymore' moment was when i showed him the book i was reading & he said 'oh ya,i've read this' & i forgot how to be coherent after that bc excuse me??! He reads what I read? HOT
if huberman has time to date 6 women & record multiple podcasts & start his day with sunlight & cold showering & what not you definitely have time to keep your phone away for a little while & talk to those around you & see how blue the sky is & fall in love with nature life etc
Oof, haven't felt this nervous and excited about a movie in a long, long time. It's like prepping for a first date with someone you're actually interested in.
However it goes, I'm with you

I am reading this book where a character very casually tells a friend that they are too young to understand that friends are not family, & how kids are the real family that matter.
And this is the reason why so many of us who are single in our 30s & 40s feel lonely.

RT if you've been called sensitive for speaking up against stereotyping, gender discrimination, toxic work culture, toxic relationships or any wrong doing for that matter.
(Trying to prove a thing)
Texting. Leaving random voice notes. Asking for baby and pet photos. Sending memes. Checking in. Sharing music. Picking up little gifts just because something reminded you of them. Asking if they want to be a part of your plan. Making plans with them.
@iHrithik
has looked good in so many movies, especially War & Dhoom 2, but there's something about the way he's been shot in
#VikramVedha
that makes him look the best he's ever looked. And what a performance! Damn. Stole the goddamn show.
It's my 12yr work anniversary today. I once told an ex that it's an imp day for me & he laughed it off. That's when i started celebrating this alone cos I made this happen for myself why was I waiting for someone else to get it
Moral: bad relationships also teach you good things
I got my heart broken on 3dec last year as I realised those who I cared about didn't care about me, & I was so angry for being loving & selfless & empathetic when all of that was looked at as forced affection that felt suffocating.
A guy on a scooter stopped to ask me if I wanted a lift, and even after yelling at him & making it clear that I can kick his ass, he stayed, stared and asked why I refused to accompany him. And he did this TWICE.
A simple evening walk is so scary, even in a safe neighborhood.

Catching up for beers/coffee/meals. Sharing insecurities. Asking about their day. Sharing recommendations. Asking if they need help. Being honest. Sharing secrets. Expressing yourself. Spending time together.
I've recently been tuning into
@Harry_Styles
work, I've heard the songs before obv but now I'm REALLY tuning in & focusing on the words & voice & tone (yes i may be late to this party but it's never too late)
Anyhoo, the tracks are so good & his voice has so much character!
Looking out for them in a crowded place. Checking to see if they got home safe.
Enquiring about their workout routine. Running errands with them. Lending money. Sharing discounts. Exploring new cuisines together. Offering to share workload. Hugs.
And thank you to those who proceeded to have imp conversations around safety in a city. Hope this changes soon, it's frustrating living with so much fear in our lives.
There needs to be a support group for people in their 30s who still have the energy, hope and enthusiasm of 18 year olds. We're not represented enough.
All of us have our way of showing that we care, all these little things come together to form wholesome & honest relationships. Be it wite friends,lovers,colleagues or family,effort is required in everything.
6hrs of sleep after 1 bottle of wine & I thought I'd just wing it today. I'm so impressed with myself that I can't believe I did this. Such a lovely run on a fresh, cold morning 🥹🥹🥹✨✨

Reminding them they are lactose intolerant as they get ready to order that cheese platter. Making them stay away from the bar as they gear up for round 3 of shots. Introducing them to your friends.
I love how all my guy friends & dates are at a point in their lives where they feel complete as individuals and while they are not looking actively they would like a partner who could provide them with companionship on the journey. It's almost as if 1/2
Women in the older generations have been alien to the concept of self love. Which is why they'll warn us that life gets lonely if we're not married.
Men have been brought up to assume women can't survive without them. Which is why they'll say "who's gonna look after you later?"

Hate this man, and hate this overanalysing. It's more tiring than anything else in life NGL, this entire trying to find meaning in every feeling. Sometimes I just want to be
You glow differently when you know what you want,are not afraid to express it,& proud of yourself for doing all that work to get here.
Pieces are falling into place as 2022 ends & I'm so grateful for all that this beautiful yet challenging year has taught me.

Being positive doesn't mean life is all rainbows and butterflies. It means that you'll be able to handle all the nonsense life throws at you, knowing you'll get through.
Written something about the fitness mistakes I've made. I've noted down the major ways in which I went wrong,made this one completely about myself,& if u think u identify with me,u can always work towards making your journey better :)

I know a super hot girl & a super hot guy who are both in Delhi, both going to Mag Fields, should I play cupid or should I watch in FOMO of what could have been?
You can be earning lakhs but if your money management isn't strong you're never going to be rich. It's so important to know what to do with your money, and how to make it grow!
When will this country take burnout seriously? I talk a lot about work-life balance on my Instagram, & I've had so many people telling me how they work mon- sat, 11am-9pm, no holidays, and are expected to be available all the time.

Chopped it off and donated it all to a cancer care NGO that makes wigs for cancer patients 💇♀️

Yeah she's excellent! But then again, it's a rare one. She's always a married woman / mother otherwise and tbh it is just really, really unfair. And oh i loveeeee her.

@DRDO_India
for building this Multi-role fighter aircraft and also praised the IAF, Indian Army and Navy for their professionalism, courage and bravery.
There is absolutely no work life balance here in India. No one understands me time, is it? No one understands professional work hours, is it? 11pm calls are normal, because work is all that really matters.
we are all scared but hopeful but it feels really nice to see all of us learning how to take it slow and steady. It also makes me think why so many amazing matches are all single together but that's a conversation for another time hehehehe
Have you noticed how every time you state a problem to a man he responds with the most obvious solution to the problem assuming we haven't thought of it already?
Observe this carefully & you'll see how most of the times they're sharing unsolicited advice 💁♀️
We have been told that our existence is incomplete without a family with kids & a partner. We are made to chase romantic relationships and not nurture any platonic ones. This is the conditioning that we are trying to break out of and it isn't easy.

But I'd recommend this book each & every day of the year. Read the 1st one a million times already (still cry after every chapter) Also inspired me to pick up more books on military history. Thanks
