Came across someone looking for a wife on Grapevine. This one's for you brother! 😂

So I've never been in a relationship. During my college days, I was really attached to someone and liked him a lot. We were together for about a year. Not relationship together - but it's like when you're close to someone but not given a relationship tag yet. But after one year, I got to know that he was talking to his ex girlfriend and then he left me giving some reasons. I was devastated. Since then, I used to keep pushing men away. Whenever someone tried to come close to me, I kept on pushing them. And that's how I've never been in a relationship. And now that I wish to be in a relationship, every guy around me is either already married or about to get married. I'm 25 Not sure what needs to be done now.

Inspired by a recent post I saw on here about marriage. Grapevine could probably do a better job than Seema Aunty. What do you think? Can it be done?

Hi Grapeviners, This is yours truly Micheal_Scott with a massive announcement. We shared a feedback form with all of you yesterday. 5000 of you responded. We asked what you’d want Grapevine to be next. And you answered. We treat user feedback as gospel. Grapevine is now a dating app. Just as you asked. Grapevine has 10s of thousands of eligible singles. I personally cannot wait enough for the first Grapevine baby!

Not able to get a good rishte(bride) in my community. Which platform to go and use?

Am in my mid 30s from south working in Mumbai for a PSU. I’ve been declined in matrimony websites owing to location and perception of PSU. Is this the new normal?

I'm at that age where is tremendous pressure to get married. Can't even put in words the kind of torture I go through every day. I'm a woman. I have met people mostly through AM set up. I didn't click with anyone. I don't have faith that I'll be anyone compatible through AM route. Tried dating app, quickly realised it's not for me, the compatibility is even worse there. I go to events and such, didn't really meet anyone. Idk if it's just the Kannada culture, everyone is just so shy! I enjoy being by myself but would prefer being with a partner. I realise the importance of having a companion. At the same time, I also don't want to just get married to someone for the sake of it. So Bengalurians, especially Kannadigas, where did you meet your partner/SO/spouse? What is something I should be doing that I'm not doing? On the work front, I'm doing quite well. Looks wise too, I don't think I'm ugly.

I've been seeing a lotta posts where men are venting about not being able to find the right girl, so just wanted to know whether it's the same for women too Here in Bangalore its hard to find a quality guy smh, (emphasis on quality). Dating apps are a dead end and even when you have organic “meet cutes” the men end up saying they want something casual and don't want to commit. How do you deal with this? Or rather, how do you distract yourself from these kinda feelings? P.S: don't come at me saying “its harder for men” - I'm sure it is lol I just want to know if there are women who also resonate with what I feel.
