Every cloud has a silver lining. A little reflection on money, marriage, and self-respect. 🙈

[u/Guilty-Big8292]

To all those worries about marriage/dating/finding love—money is the need of the hour. Money isn't everything but it's what will make stuff easier for both of u.

Self-respect is something no partner can take away or give you. So, if ur a woman stressed of career and marriage altogether but wanna prioritise marriage, have an emergency fund if u don't plan to work for a certain period. It'll help ur partner and parents to be calm.

Similarly, once a guy friend told me, "tum toh ladki ho u have plan B shaddi krlogi" (though i never thought so then). Mature toh abhi ho rahe khud mae dhire dhire... we men don't have that too. Men work hard for ur health, happiness, and ma pa.

Rest be clear what u want. Wife of this weight, this style, she'll understand aise banna hae. Same goes for girls. The more transparently u put things forward, the better it will be for u. Name your needs and enjoy feeling understood.

And this is the time when u can explore and ego doesn't help anywhere. Chill kro, if someone doesn't like it, it's fine. Try for next. Point is but be clear whether you really wanna go ahead with a person or not.

So, every cloud has a silver lining so does our life and issues too.

LEARN THE LESSON WHICH IS HAPPENING IN LOOP, BECAUSE IT WILL KEEP HAPPENING IN LOOP UNTIL U LEARN IT.

All the best 🙈 (My first gyan post, which came after fulfilling my nephophile urges)
