That's still fine but the hitman is fucking 38 and that girl is 17, meri mano toh sab ko maar do

Software Engineer

I want to know if this was her biological daughter. And if that's true, then the mother herself had her child at 16, somewhere in 2007. I don't know when had teenage pregnancy become a thing in Indian society

Actually good point, she could be step daughter too. Hard to believe own mother planning murders 
  
 Waise 35-17 is 18

So the daughter was dating a hitman?

So the daughter was dating a hitman?- Grapevine

I met my girlfriend during college, 5 years ago. 

We were so much in love. I remember we used to go on dates to picnics, museums and the works. I spent and invested a lot of money and time in this relationship. I feel that my life is purposeless now that she has left me.

Her father is a very high ranking government official. He has gotten marriage proposals from very well endowed political connections. Apparently some ex-CM's son is out in the marriage market looking. 

I don't know why but I still thought we would make it. Like, nothing can come between us. 

She texted me last night that she was leaving me because I only make 14LPA. My hands are still trembling. 
I want to go be the best version of myself and simultaneously think that the train tracks are looking comfy to sleep on.

My girlfriend left me because I make 14LPA...

Hey,
I wanted to know if it is essential for business partners to meet each other parents before starting a business and if not possible somehow, should that be an area of concern?

Asking this, because a friend wants to meet my parents before he joins me into business that I have already started.

Also just for context his dad would be involved as it's their family business.

Do Business Partners meet each other parents before starting?

They have created the picture of falling in love at workplace . I still doubt on people who met at workplace and got married ....Dude how???

Need to stop watching K-dramas

A 2 year old kid in Jaipur refused to leave his kidnapper when police came to rescue the kid. The kid got attached to the kidnapper !!


I don't know why but this seems extremely relatable to the corporates.

You (Employee) is kidnapped and Your monthly salary is the Kidnapper.

Happy Pay day !!

Men on GV: Ask questions on love, relationships and marriage!

Women on GV: Answer these questions genuinely and bluntly!

I'll go first: 
Heard about a married couple (married <1 year) and already separated (to be divorced). The wife hid her past and relationship from her family and in-laws. Husband asked about her relationships and she said she isn't in one. No pressure from the guy's family about marriage. Girl said yes and for months pretended to be excited about marriage. Post marriage, husband realised that she's cheating, excessive partying drinking, and smoking. Husband is in a disarray and suicidal.

Now I know there are both men and women like her (not making it a gender thing). But as a man looking for a partner/relationship/girlfriend, how do we be careful and what red and green flags should we look for, in a woman, while looking for a genuine relationship?

Love and Marriage

Generalist

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

From the outside, my life right now looks great. I graduated with a great GPA from one of the best universities in DU, completed my banking stint in a top tier group and am now happily working as a Management Consultant in Monitor Deloitte. I'm in a relationship with a girl I'm crazy about, I have good friends, I'm attractive, fit and have the world ahead of me. That's what the outside sees. In reality, I'm a messed up kid feeling my way around in the dark through a world that I feel wholly unprepared for.

I grew up poor. At times, I was very, very hungry. The first few months my family was able to crawl out of poverty, I continued to overeat because I still vividly remembered the hunger pains that often kept me awake at night. I lost one of my siblings and I always blamed myself for what happened. I was sexually abused by a relative. I witnessed things in my city that still send chills down my spine.

And then there were my parents. Sure, my mom loved me and wanted me to be happy, but unfortunately she had no idea what it meant to be a good parent. My dad was an abusive piece of shit that saw me as his competition, not as his son. We still don't speak very often. On an especially bad day, he had once again taken his rage out on my mom, but to rub in the humiliation he had her wipe her own blood off the walls while he stood and watched. I tried to intervene, but I wasn't much of a match.

I, too, was a bit of a piece of shit. I was aggressive and found myself in fights very often. Though I was smart, I was lazy and didn't do all too well in high school, where homework and not exams governed your academic performance. Needless to say, at 16 I looked like I was destined for a mediocre life at best, but probably likely to end up as another case of wasted potential.

I don't know what changed, but one day I started turning things around and ever since I have kept the momentum going. I had the highest grades in my class in 11th and 12th.

I soon got into a college that I did not deserve and met the love of my life there. And from there I busted my ass to get to where I am today.

I earned my own money and paved my own way. I didn't use my past as an excuse to fail. If I didn't make it, I knew it was nobody's fault but my own. I also knew that nobody would care. 

If one day I broke down because of all the stress, the world would keep on turning as it always had.

Nobody cares about the struggles I went through. They care about who I am today and who I'm going to be.

And, I guess, that's my message: take responsibility for who you are, where you are now and where you will be. I don't care that it's a tough economy. 

I don't care that you go to a shitty college. I don't care that an unlucky string of events rendered you less competitive than your peers. And nobody else does either. We will continue living our lives the same way we always had, but you will suffer the curse of your own laziness and incompetence. It's a tough world out there and if you want to compete in an environment as ruthless as India, you need to forget about the excuses and find a way to succeed. 

And if you can't? Well, you weren't cut out for this world anyway. Nobody is going to pamper your bruised ego and give you a job just because you want it. You need to earn it.

When the daughter knows better than the mother

I see a lot of girls today have this condition of not staying with in-laws after marriage. I want to know the opinion of both genders on this. As I myself don’t understand what difference it makes. 🫠

Marriage Stuff

Putting this in meme because it is a satire on patriarchy, nothing beyond

Sonakshi Sinha, the actor got married recently. Hyped by media for wrong reasons obviously, even said the parents won't celebrate. 

Mom: Did the parents join? 

Me: Yes! She hugged her father after signing the marriage registration. Her mom was besides the son-in-law.

Mom: How old is she?

Me: 37

Mom: Tabhi! (That's why)

So guys, the threshold is 37 FYI

P.S. Conversation happened in Hindi, but translated here for reference

Mom's reaction to Sonakshi's wedding

Despite the "modern era" we live in, many of us still find ourselves on the path to arranged marriage—often feeling like it's the only option we have. Speaking from personal experience, I've had my fair share of bizarre encounters. Hearing similar stories from my male and female friends who are also going through this process has provided some comfort, especially knowing that I'm not alone. 
Let's use this comment section to share our experiences—whether they were bad, weird, gut-wrenching, blood-boiling, or even heartbreakingly disappointing

Controversial Arranged Marriage Meet Ups

This is not my story. We were group of 4 in MBA, everyone got placed in different cities.

One of our friend got remote work so shifted to his hometown in MP. But you don't get to date girls in small towns. 
Just for fun sake, he posted a fake job post on LinkedIn. A girl reached out to him, shared her resume, which sure had her number too. He thought he would do that fake rejection drama, console the girl and get on with it.

Now, the girl was genuinely nice and sweet. Was seeking a job after layoff in Covid. This man (a big cutie he is) made ends meet to get her a new job.

Cut to 4 years later, I get invited to their wedding.
Honestly, I still cannot believe this is how he met his wife 😂

Got girl through fake job post and now getting married.

Last Friday I went on a date with a girl from Gurgaon and it was the biggest mistake of my life. I was apprehended by her brother's friend at Ambience Mall. How? We were having a milkshake from Keventer's where some guy randomly pops out and starts enquiring about what we were doing.

The thing escalated and he said he will call police. I got scared. Then he motioned for someone, and that guy started misbehaving with us as well. It was becoming very stressful and I asked , "Tum chahte kya ho?" He was like, "Mhaare doston ko bhi thoda Milkshake Wilkshake pilao bhai." (Get milkshakes from KLeventers for our friends too). I was like, "Huh?" He demanded cash and said that he will get it himself. I gave them all cash I was carrying, some 2500 rupees and ran away. I think the girl was in on it too.

What should I have done?

Regret going on a date with a Haryanvi girl 👫🏻 ...

She had the same reaction, years apart, for me and my sibling 

Kinda cute and irritating 

What's your story?

How did your mother react to you dating?

Like how can a mom do this to son?

Adding context as link. 

3-4 months ago I shared my story on Grapevine about the brutally traumatising experience I faced at the hand of my colleague's wife who had accused him of committing adultery with me. This was obviously a bogus claim over a small misunderstanding around a bag which had gotten exchanged with my swimsuit in it.

Here's what happened afterwards.

I was out jogging last week in the morning. I've been trying to get in better shape for this summer as I'm planning on going for a beach vacation in. couple of months. After sustaining Zone 5 consistently I was going through my cooldown regimen for normalising my heart rate. 

Suddenly someone tapped my shoulder from behind and it was none other than that colleague's bitchy wife. She had shaven her head weirdly. This was extremely problematic imo because she is a known deranged person(read the last post to figure out why). I tried walking away but she started blocking my way.

I asked her what happened and she said that she was sorry for what happened and started crying. She said that her husband said that she had humiliated him and that people at work didn't talk to him properly for weeks because of what she did. 

I started walking slowly while acting engaged in her dialogue. As soon as I was about to reach the end of the park I started running towards my car that was parked outside and drove off.

I am very worried. Is she stalking my whereabouts? What should I do? My flatmates are trying to console me but I thought 4 months down the line everything was forgotten. I am extremely paranoid about what is happening.

Background
During a trip to Thailand, me and a colleague accidentally swapped bags. When I called to explain the mistake, his wife accused me of trying to seduce her husband. She harassed me with phone calls, and later threw eggs at my residence. Then, set her husband's bag on fire and got into trouble with the police. She was then arrested.

For full context: https://share.gvine.app/FdwwvTcDLzaK6i2a9

I would also like to address those who said that the story is fake. It isn't. I genuinely posted this here because as a woman it is hard to find spaces online to vent my frustrations. I was genuinely distressed at the moment and my flatmates did take care of me. I also received tons of support from the community here and I am thankful for that.

Here's what happened next:
I decided not to press charges as I am living away from my family and I don't want this to be the reason they start interfering in my personal freedom. Over the weekend, she apologized and invited me for dinner, I obviously declined because she acted all insane before.

But she is literally so dramatic that she lied to everyone that I came to her house and hit her so hard that she puked all over her clothes. Thankfully, their society has CCTV coverage and I didn't even leave my home all weekend. So, no one believed her this time. 

Our group thankfully supported me throughout this and the colleague is no longer in the group. Now, I just want to get over this traumatic experience which when I look back at is too unreal to even think about.

Here's what happened next, after Police arrested my Colleague's Wife- Grapevine

UPDATE: What happened next after my colleague's wife got arrested.

As the title suggests, I'm a lawyer and good at what I do. Haven't got anything better to do, so AMA.

Very happy to assist startups and young businesses as well!
