Funny how life eventually makes everyone understand certain feelings. Not something I ever wished on anyoneโฆ but perspective does arrive, sometimes years later through the very emotions you once thought were exaggerated and theatrical. Life is funny like that.
The funny thing about being called nonchalant is that it usually comes from people who have only seen the parts of you that weren't meant for them.
And no, my friend, I don't have an Aishwarya Rai waiting for me at home but If I have ever seemed nonchalant, maybe it was because I was dealing with some of your world class idiot friends.
Caught up with a funny, quirky, cool AF influencer who happened to be my Rapido rider today. Great conversation. This is the most pretentious English I have spoken in a while, and honestly, I'm not sure who to blame.
Came across a now disabled Telegram group from my city where hundreds of women's dating app profiles with vile descriptions were being shared like commodities, accompanied by some of the most disgusting remarks I've ever read.
Remarks like, "Ye to Chi****r hai sali 2 drinks me de degi," "agar ye kapde pehen ke aayi toh us din pakka milega," "ye toh hamesha ready rehti hai, bas thoda dhang se baat karna padega" and countless others. women was being objectified, profiled, and discussed as if her consent was something to be decoded or negotiated.
I'm genuinely ashamed to call myself a man today.
Whenever someone says, 'But Not all men' I feel we are asking the wrong question. Do we actually condemn such behaviour? Or do we just distance ourselves from it? Why don't we actively expose people associated with such groups instead of pretending they don't exist?
Let's be honest with ourselves. Even if you've never been part of one, we all know these groups have existed in some form. Silence only enables them.
What worries me the most is that some of the consumers of these groups can have a criminal mindset. Communities like these normalize stalking, manipulation, entitlement, and treating women as conquests. That's exactly the kind of environment that can fuel harassment, slut shaming and in some cases, far more horrific crimes.
The uncomfortable truth is that many of these people don't fit the stereotype of a criminal. Some are, well dressed, well spoken, respectable looking gentlemen. Many are married. They know exactly how to identify emotional vulnerabilities, they have figured out what works for women, say the right things, and get under someone's skin. I've seen few of my friends unknowingly get involved with such married manipulators, only to be left traumatized and with their self esteem shattered.
Not all men but almost always, it's men.
If you are on dating apps, please use them responsibly and stay vigilant. You definetely dont want another govt regulated interventions. And if you ever come across groups like these, don't ignore them. Report them. Expose them. Accountability should begin long before another headline forces us to talk about it.
Disgusted to the core!!
Freedom isn't choosing whatever you want recklessly. Freedom is knowing the consequences of your choices and choosing them consciously.
Because every choice writes a story.

Humans: Life goes on people moves on.
Google Photos: Interesting. ....Anyway, here's that person from 5 years ago. ruk jaa collage bana ke bhi deta hun, wait a video montage too, thoda sentimental music just to make sure you don't forget.
I swear, cloud storage services needs a better sense of timing and situation awareness. ๐
Western Countries have weaponized the existing Financial System . Increased use of financial restrictions and asset freezes has accelerated the break up of the global economic order . Global South countries have moved towards alternative trade, payment and financial systems outside Western control.
Thereโs something deeply embarrassing about ignoring a real person who loves you just to chase endless validation from strangers on a screen. Genuine intimacy, loyalty, and connection are right in front of you, yet you choose pixels over reality. At some point, it stops being a relationship problem and starts being a self-awareness problem.
Your competition isn't other people. Your competition is:
- Your bad habits
- Your distractions
- Your insecurities
- Your procrastination
- Your lack of discipline
- Your fear and your ego
Working with Gen Z is not difficult, in my experience If you are patient enough to take their long calls and VCs and are open to listening to their perspectives, advice, ideas, and queries, you'll find that they genuinely love contributing to the project. They have a collaborative approach when given that kind of freedom and atmosphere. Working with them is actually fun.
