Friend after joining bumble in BLR- Grapevine

Recently shifted here to blr, i'm new here and literally know no one here. What should I do after work/weekends? How do I make friends and go out ?

Recently moved, nothing to do

Intern

I've been in the city for almost 2 years but I barely have any friends. Most of college friends are in other cities while my office is WFH.

I realised that I have less friends when I started asking some of them to join for a trip abroad.

How to make friend in BLR?

Senior Product Manager

Okay, so this happened to me last year. I was approached by a college alumni (got my number from college alumni group) who told me he had a side business going on which was leading him to earn more money than his corporate job and that he was going to leave the corporate for his “business”.

I was initially not interested but he was insistent and also I was looking to explore some options (may be my naïveté) that I asked him more and so he setup a call with his senior to explain more about this “business”.

Now this senior gave all sorts of gyaan regarding how to reach financial independence and picking up on the general mindset of how to make more money. They asked to create a list of 10 things that I desired the most at the point of time which could be solved with more money. I complied thinking it was a good exercise (again, I was a big fool). Now I was connected with another senior who gave all sorts of gyaan regarding how I could make more money and lead to financial independence.

Please note, during all this time I was constantly asking what the business idea was and how it would be achieved but got no response on the details and only white washing regarding how I should be prepared to do anything to achieve my dreams.

Now, it was revealed that I would need to put in 5L as investment to get bigger returns. Since I did not have that money in handy, I was suggested to get a personal loan through their agents. Also not to inform this to parents because they won’t understand this stuff and get “worried”. Luckily I did went with their suggestion and informed my parent about it. Thinking it was a startup idea, I got the investment from my father through an OD in my name.

Now we get onto a call two days later, where they reveal the company QNet and makes me purchase 5L of stuff from their website and explained the business model which was to get other people from your knowing to buy products from this company and get commissions on the sale.

Pyramid scheme scam

Bruh... what even?! It's a well known scam. I don't understand how you were ready to put in 5L of your money without going for a simple google search.  
  
 All these IIT/NIT/IIM/AIIMS means they cracked a certain exam. It has nothing to do with guaranteed moral values or even basic common sense. Lesson learnt the hard way I guess.

What do women look for in a guy before they date one?

Welcome to Ask Grapeviners's Private Community

Probably most of you people might have used dating apps and there is no way that you have not had such an incident while using dating apps, so spill the tea and entertain everyone on the weekend😂.
I will go first:
So when I installed the dating app for the first time, I had no idea what to write in the bio, so I changed the looking for filter to man and women both and I started swiping left on men but was seeing what they are writing in bio and after some time I closed the app and forgot to change the filter and after 1 day I found out that I had 83 right swipes on my profile. Now I am scared that I hope no one of my knowing would have seen my profile warna gay samjne lagege😭

P.S. I used to use this question as an ice breaker and the response rate was 100%😂

In the Blr since a month, in the Marathalli area.

Not any friends nearby.
First time out of home town.

Not any friends in the company as well, mostly I sit alone just casual hi hellos. Don't drink or party hence just stuck in PG.

I want to network with people and find interesting startups.
