"The extent of water surface in Bengaluru during 1973 was 2,324 hectares. Over the last 50 years, due to reckless concretization, the water surface has shrunk considerably. Of the remaining water bodies, 98% of lakes are encroached upon and 90% of them are fed with untreated sewage or industrial effluents. Naturally, this has impacted the recharge of the groundwater table as well," IISc's Prof TV Ramachandra had told TOI.

Bengaluru's severe water crisis and traffic congestion are prompting tech giants to consider relocating from the $245 billion IT hub. The city's civic challenges may impact India's IT industry landscape, compelling companies to explore emerging cities.

If they buiild more "lake-view" apartments, there will be no more lakes left, not that there are many left.

Loosing a parent

What does this feeling of loneliness teach me about myself and my needs?

Alone in City

Technical Specialist

Holi hai? Diwali hai? So what, nothing to enjoy. Lets spend the day laying on the bed, watching stuff over phone. Feeling less and less disconnected with friends, to the point where I feel I don't even have friends. College friends are based in another city. Didn't even try to make friends at workplace. Stuck alone in my homecity as past 6 years I was based somewhere else completing my grad and preparing for jee. Prior to that focused a lot on studies. So had little to no interaction with people during academics. And now when I have time and money to spend, there is noone with whom I can have fun with.

The older I get, the lesser my excitement becomes for festivals

Moved to a city from a Village. I felt the same. The reason is that cities are culturally and morally bankrupt.  Except mindless consumerism and inflated egos , cities teach you nothing. 
 The longer one lives in cities, people just become animals in fine clothes.

Ive always been a person who likes the company of himself and every weekend I chill with my friends and this has been going on since past 5-6 years.

Offlate where ever we go we seee couples and get feeling that we are missing out on something.

I  have also explored these dating apps with all premium membership but I don't think it is of any use all fake profiles of women looking to scam only come up.

Any genuine person who is interested to date please dm.

Feeling lonely in this adulthood phase - Anyone up for a date in Hyderabad

Hi guys, I just graduated and started working. My office doesn't really have an in-office work culture, so I usually go to the office once in a while. The rest of the days I work from home.
I live at home, and I agree that staying with your family brings in a lot of comfort. But the place where I live is a small town. I don't have friends here, and my social life has become almost zero.
I feel like I have no one to talk to, my college friends on the other hand have moved to metro cities for their jobs, living with their friends. I see them enjoying every weekend which makes me feel bad as I don't have any friends here.
Even my college friends have stopped talking to me. At times, I feel very lonely and sad. I have also been seeing a therapist for a while now.
Could someone please help me with any advice/suggestions. I'm in dire need of advice/ perspective and have no one to talk to.

Graduated in 2021, got an okayish job, still doing well career wise. I tried my own startups too. But I've never got the feeling of "yehi karna hai yaar life mein". All the friends are now disconnected. Doing WFH since forever and don't even have good connections at my current org or in my previous org. 
Tried therapy as well, didn't help much, they recommended medications, but that I'm not willing to do as of now. I don't know whether it's just me or this gruelling feeling of existential dread will ever go away. 
Maybe software engineering as a domain is like that, encourages introverts and introvertedness. But idk something is not right. No friends, no space to vent out frustrations. And it's been about 3 years since I last had a conversation with the opposite gender.
I'm in complete mental mess, only thing keeping me alive is probably gym.
I just want something to cling on to, to know this is not the end and this is not how it will end.

Dealing with lonliness

Hi folks, 

I wanted to know how you tackle this feeling of loneliness and being lost in the city. When you have no one to talk with and always being homesick.

Loneliness

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I’m a working mother. Also a nursing mom living without husband. My stress level has reached new heights due to work and client pressure.

I earn enough. Here are my problems:
1. Don’t have friends who I can talk to 
2. Dating life is weird and complicated (can’t find someone I’m truly happy with)
3. Don’t enjoy living in blr
4. Don’t have tight bond with siblings or parents

Suggest me some ways in which I can improve. Please only suggest things that worked for you.

How did your personal life affect your professional life ? Share your positive/ negative experiences.

A lot. 
 Sister suffers severe psychological ssues. 
 Has been known since 4 years. Can't leave her alone. Trying to get her up on her feet has been a challenge since such people are not that socially acceptable. 
 We've had to juggle cities just so that someone is there to tend to her.  
 It drains the life out of your life. 
 Such things definitely affect professional life as you can't give 100% to your work when your mentally stuck at your home.

Life has become so dry and meaningless nowadays. Struggle connects us on some level. I’d love to hear your stories of struggle and how you overcame it.

Here’s my story.
I studied B.E for 7 years because of backlogs. Every year was a new batch, no friends. Extreme depression, humiliation everywhere. Isolated myself from an extremely judgmental society. 
Confidence had no meaning in my life. 
Somehow struggled and cleared all the backlogs. Studied programming and web design. Started working for free.
After 1 year, first salary was 2k per month.
Then 18k. Then 30k.
I always felt dumb because of the backlogs. Want to rectify it. So went to the US with the only admit I got. Studied my ass off. GPA 3.95. But I was broke again. Cried my eyes out multiple times because I had no money for food. Couldn’t tell this to parents.

Found a job later after many many applications. 
Happiest moment of achievement was when I bought my first 43 inch LED TV. With my own money.

Current pay: over 2L / mo.
