Boys will be boys 😂

Boys will be boys 😂- Grapevine

If you have been talking to someone for some time now and you want to find out whether that person actually likes/care about you or are they just going with the flow?

then just pretend to be sick or mood off for one day, be vague about the reasons behind your behaviour. The way that person texts/call you and the way that person handles you that day would tell you more than enough.

If that person is busy talking to others or is not interested in you, they won't care much about how you feel, they won't try to help you, you will get your answer. 

Although it's not that straightforward, you are smart enough to figure it out. 


PS: don't try to take advantage of their emotions though, it's a sensitive topic, don't be an as*hole.

[Controversial] A dating tip

Senior Software Engineer

https://x.com/deepikabhardwaj/status/1798720683364819455 (Dating scam)

I did think dating is a scam on some level but this case does reveals bad actors on female side as well. Pretty sure it happens outside India as well and tbh, such case might be less highlighted than a case with male as the bad actor.

Why should boys have all the fun?

Software Engineer

boys please try this and let me know if it's true

Boys only want to one thing and it's disgusting...

Happy Sunday boys!! Just a reminder before you go to your barber today.

Product Manager

I always looked at her and felt she is so beautiful, charismatic, and had an infectious smile. Looking at her made me smile broo.

Chapter 1
One day I decided to ask her out. I messaged her and our conversation grew then she spilled out that she also liked me a lot. And she was glad that I asked her out.

Chapter 2
She had studied in an all girls school and she had a stereotype about boys that they are all stupid and bad. And girls and boys should never be together. I was fine because atleast she liked me 😂. One fine day she asked me to break up with my brosss. I asked her why?
She said your friends are all playboys and I don't like the way they look at me. (Disclaimer: My bros are really nicest guys and I have known them since childhood they are the best gentlemen). We had an argument which didn't end on a good note.


Chapter 3
I left to a new state for my Job. After I reached there she messaged me that we can't talk and we have to stop whatever we had. I got anxious and worried and spent my 5 months not being able to contact her. I got into depression. Then me being restless on my birthday I came back to my hometown. At exactly 11:59PM when my bday was going to end she messaged me "Happy Birthday". I was so happy to see her message.

Chapter 4
We started talking and she said that she is leaving to Canada for her higher studies. I was happy for her but at the same time I was sad. I didn't want to see her go. We both cried and stayed on call till morning watching each other sleep.

Chapter 5:
She reached Canada and she completed her formalities and procedures. We talked for few more days but then eventually she started giving me hints that she is not interested. Then one day she abruptly messaged me and said we can't talk and we have to end everything. I cried the whole night, because there was no way for me to contact her and she had blocked me.

Chapter 6:
It has been 1 yr to that day. Somehow I have gone numb. I'm slowly forgetting her.

She left me.

Chill. After 5-6 years you will laugh on yourself that why in the world you gave so much importance to her. There is no derth of good women in this world. Moving her away was god's plan, for your good that you might never understand. Take Care!

The boss energy 🤌

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Help me figure this out because up till now it seems like all my decisions were wrong.

New job, new city, fresher.
Found a single occupancy in a pre occupied 2BHK in my budget, and as per my preferences. Had to shift in the middle of the month. Since the room I am supposed to get is occupied by someone else(X), the landlord suggested that I adjust in the hall area for the half month and then I would shift to the room from October. 
I was okay with this, and under the impression that X is also okay with this arrangement. Mind that X is not present in the flat, X has been away since a month. The other two flatmates (Y, Z) in the other room are also okay with this. 
I have given deposit of 20k to the landlord. 
Now X comes back today, starts a fight with me straightaway, starts throwing my things. X says that the hall is common space and since X is paying rent I cannot be there, X only wants their friend to take that room, and a million other things. X is the most problematic person I've ever come across. Bhagwaan jane kaun isse shadi karega. Y, Z back me up. We speak to the landlord and he scolds X. 
Now although X has verbally agreed to moving out at the end of the month, what if X refuses to move out? Mera toh agreement bhi nahi bana hai.. 
I should prolly start looking for flats 😵

Flatmate Drama

Update : X has just returned from having a fantastic weekend, while I'm resting in the hall with a badly twisted foot (fml). X is talking to their partner loudly, desperately clearly trying to irritate me 🤡🤬 Abse is ghar ka naam bigg boss hai aur I will give updates regularly. bc ab toh single bhi feel ho raha hai aur gussa bhi aa rha hai

Decision Analyst

If we open up to girls about our feelings, we either be ridiculed or weak but if girls open up there is a whole community supporting them!!

Even if it's men's mental health month, are there any open talks or girls helping out??? NOPE

WE CAN EITHER SHUT UP AND LOCK IN OUR INTEGRITY OR SHARE OUR THOUGHTS TO THEM....


Convince me! 

Ps: no fights just a post to look out to talk with girls🥴

Is it just me or we Bois are really afraid to talk to girls about our feelings

Information Security

Was speaking to two of my friends (from GV) on this topic. One was supporting, and one against.

As a fellow female on Grapevine, I think it is not necessary. 
If only we stop treating women as second gender, and just see them as basic humans, a lot of things will change.

To let people have a safe space to voice opinions, does not need a secluded room.

So many of us are unaware of problems (physical, mental, emotional) others face, this platform does a great job in bringing all at one place.

Do we need separate community for women on Grapevine?

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

My heart is filled with nothing but disgust if these allegations are genuine. I hope this reaches its natural conclusion and justice prevails.

Worth pointing out here: most companies don't even have POSH policies that cover male victims of abuse 
  
 I hope he gets justice

Welcome to Confessions's Private Community

any girl hiding her face in the twitter profile pic is not a girl, but a guy

Fathers, brothers, friends- they will be happy cheerful jolly one day and next day silence!
Won't share what's bothering them

If we ask too many times, then we are termed as nagging

Why do men just suddenly go quiet?

I seriously would like to know how to go about asking someone you like in an office setup? Without it becoming awkward later on if handed with rejection.
Also making sure that the person being asked out does not feel creeped out.

Let's talk about office romance

Do anybody exist nowadays without any past relationships? In arrange too getting people with past, many try to hide it in start but accept after so much of efforts. 


If having past then why not to accept?! 


How to see secure future with people had multiple pasts or lieing on past?! Isn't it lot much compromise on mental peace🤔


What if you believe in old school relations - had no past and want someone similar with no past...You want to be and grow with one person forever no matter what... is it nearly possible now?

Why nobody without past?

Data engineer

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.

Women on GV - how do you find the right guy?

Content Strategist

Why is it that some men show too much interest in you for initial few weeks, like asking for ig and then ig messages. Seeing your stories just about the instant you post it. They tell you about their last break up they can't get over with but still tell you that falling in love is the most beautiful part of life and talk about wanting to settle down - until the time you show interests and hola! They suddenly change their verdicts - suddenly they're no more interested. Suddenly they get busy and don't respond to your messages anymore. 
My question to men, what do you seek from a woman when you are looking for some serious engagements. Whom should one trust with attachments?

Boys will be boys 😂
