I hope everything is good on your side of the earth and you’re doing well too. I did not get my scan done yesterday but I will get it done today.

anitaParticipantDear Going Through Life:
Only.. 30 minutes ago, you posted the above. I just got back from irl socializing in a local taproom (red wine in my system). Nothing like real life socializing.. and next good thing is talking to you.. Still, real-life (only 28 min since a real life person (you!) submitted a post to me!
Please let me know about the scan results tomorrow!

anitaParticipant* I didn’t get the math perfectly (lol), but you get my point, GTL? We’re far but yet so close..

GoingThroughLifeParticipantDear Anita
I hope you’re well. IRL socializing sounds very fun, I’m glad you enjoyed. Ahh local taproom sounds so chill and warm. I wish we had something like that here. I totally get your point (must be the red wine in the system haha).
I got my scan done today, and it’s a ligament tear. Hopefully it should heal in next 2 weeks so I can finally hit the gym with full power.
I hope you have a good morning friend.

anitaParticipantDear Going Through Life:
I am relieved that there’s no damage to your spine, as in any disc getting dislocated or bulging.. since that can happen as a result of a fall. Follow the doctor’s instructions and π€ the ligament will heal in 2 weeks!
Yes, I like the taproom. There are plenty of taprooms in Bengaluru (the epicenter of taprooms, so I read), and Pune, Gurugram, and Mumbai are catching up πΊπ»π·.
My late morning is fine. Later I will attend a Thanksgiving get together.. in 5 hours from now.

GoingThroughLifeParticipantDear Anita
It makes me feel nice that you’re so concerned. Thank you.
Yes there are but I have never been to one, maybe I’ll explore one soon with some friends.
I hope you had a good thanksgiving friend.
I’m still in bed, actually missing SS today, I mean how can the person let go of all the memories that were made. We had some very fond memories.
Hoping to hear from you soon

anitaParticipantDear Going Through Life:
Well, too much food on Thanksgiving, stuffing and pies and cakes and.. too much food (I don’t like this too-much part of the holiday π’.)
I bet you are out of bed by now, GTL.
I am looking forward to the day you will tell me about a new love story in your life.. one beyond longing for, and missing someone who is not there (SS). Someone new, someone present, someone to love and be loved by you β€οΈ

GoingThroughLifeParticipantDear Anita
I hope you’re well. Haha I can imagine that, it seems funny and fulfilling everyone eating so much that they feel this way. I think the eating too much part is what makes it a holiday.
Thank you dear Anita for your kind and encouraging words.
I have my exam in 2 months, so I have started focusing there a lot, still the mornings and nights are tough.
SS brother’s marriage is going on, we planned for me to be there, but sadly all this happened.
I don’t even know if SS misses me or not and it’s sad. I have been talking to a few new women, two i met through dating app and 1 through mutuals. I’m taking it slow and just taking it as building a friendship at the moment. As I told you friend, dating here is superficial and quite tough. In the back of my head there is always a fear of not finding anyone suitable enough for me, i hope that proves to be wrong eventually.I hope to hear from you soon
Your friend

anitaParticipantDear friend, Going Through Life:
You are very welcome and thank you for.. being you!
It’s a big exam that you are studying for, I imagine..?
I am glad to read that you’ve been talking to a few new women, two that you met through dating app, and one through mutuals, and that you are taking it slow!
In regard to your fear of not finding anyone suitable enough for me, would you like to elaborate on this fear? I would like to understand it better..

GoingThroughLifeParticipantDear Anita
Good morning, or a good night for you. Thank you for being you too friend. I hope everything is well as I was concerned about you with your previous message.
Yes, it’s a big exam, it’s the final level of a professional degree I am pursuing.
Yes, the one through the mutuals I’m not attracted too, so I have basically stopped talking much to her, but she seems like a decent potential friend. I thought it’s better to not give someone false hope.
Well the country I live in, as I said it’s already very hard to find dates let alone a good partner. There is no socially accepted norm here sregarding dating still. Many marriages still happen through arranged setup which is scary.
And finding a relationship is a numbers game, you date as many people as you can and find the most worthy of pursuing a relationship with. All I can think is about levelling up in my looks but naturally that can take a lot of time and effort. I’m taking steps towards it but still finding a partner shouldn’t be so hard, it should happen naturally. I’m taking the steps I can.
On dating apps most women are looking for validation, out of the 20-22 so girls I matched with only 3-4 could hold an actual conversation. I hope I’m making sense to you friend.
I hope everything is well on your side.
Your friend

anitaParticipantDear Friend Going Through Life:
I had a somewhat difficult day emotionally, but feeling much better now, thank you for your concern, GTL π
“out of the 20-22 so girls I matched with, only 3-4 could hold an actual conversation”- I wonder how you approached them, what you first sad to the 20+ women, and what they said in return..???
Answers or understanding is in the detail.. (only if you wish to share, of course)
Detail and understanding is important not only when it comes to the big exam you’re facing, but also when it comes to finding a romantic partner π
