My girlfriend left me after getting a 30lpa job

So the story goes back to 2022 my girlfriend was in 3rd year from a prestigious NIT and i was in 2rd year . As i took a drop after 12th , got into private college tier 3.

We were together since 2016 as we were school time sweetheart❤️

Fast forward she got placed in Qualcomm with a 30 lpa and i was very very happy for her . As I used to look her as my motivation.

But after few months when my placement session started, she broke up with me. This took a huge toll on my mental health and I couldn’t focus on my studies, i was feeling fucked . In the same scenario in her placement i was always there and at the end i got fucked . She told me she’s earning more and can’t stay with me. What a fucked up scenario .

I couldn’t crack a single company till my last semester which was in may 2023. Can’t describe those scary feelings and those nightmares man. But eventually one last company came during my last sem exams and by god i was sure i am goi home with out a job. Anyhow i gave all the interviews and went to write my last engineering exam on last day. After the exam i was feeling fuck man i have fucked up my life , wasted 4 years ,money and everything.but eventually after picking my bag , i took my mobile out and checked notifications , I couldn’t believe my eyes I was selected in this last company.

I was so happy couldn’t describe the moment, accepted the defeat yet won it in last moment.

So I got 8 lpa remote work in cloudops field ,this js from 2023. However I still want to get a better salary, now i wish to cross her salary but fuck this system now i am not getting interview calls even after 1.6 years of experience.

Life is complicated, you won’t always win but eventually u will someday. I am hoping to cross that mark ❤️

Now she will relax and you have the fire within you. After 10 years you'll be way ahead of her. Her - A loser girl who didn't know what she missed.
You'll have a great wife. Don't worry.

Move on buddy. Don't try to ourgrow her. Work on yourself. That will take care of all goals. Any resentment will only hold you back. All the best!!

Dekh bhai, She left you solely because of money and she never loved you bro, let’s be clear. Chase money right now as much as you can. Always remember, money does buy love and happiness.

"Bandar Kya jaane adrak ka swad" - Here "Bandar" is "you" and not the girl.

Believe me, you are so lucky that you are now more experienced and stronger. Everyone who was there once in your situation felt the same way. But if you ask someone who has felt it before you, they will agree that the break up is the best thing that has happened to them.

Enjoy your life to the fullest. You will get all the things you really deserve. Don't compete for the salary but for a better life.

Wish her good luck (as your pain must have been lowered a bit now) at least now move on.

Life must be larger than these silly (yes, believe me) break ups. (How ever, it would feel like everything is lost temporarily, which is fine)

Think about the best part of your life which is still with you - "Parents and Family".

And for sure you must be grown enough till the time you get a great life partner. 😊

These things generally happen across both genders especially when one is more invested in the relationship than the other and that one feels their existence is more dependent with the other person.

There's no right or wrong answer here honestly, we can't control a lot of time what we feel for someone. What we can do is, having segregation in aspects of life. Like, there should be career, relationship, friendship, hobbies, health etc. We need all of them to be well composed. Overdependence on any one results in greater pain when things don't go as we envisioned

Feel happy that you dodged a red flag. Just enjoy your work and live life.

Sahi hai na. Weed, weeded itself out early. Imagine if she forced herself to stay with you but had these thoughts all the time. She would resent you, and hope that it would make you dump her to feel less guilty. She'd eventually hurt you, and with greater force.

Sometimes in life, the best thing for us also happens to be ugly. Doesn't make it any less good for us.

Remember, those who abandoned you on a sinking ship don't deserve to know if or how or in what condition you made it to the shore.

Want to do great in life? Absolutely. But DON'T give her the satisfaction by making HER the reason or fuel for your success.

Succeed for your own reasons. Succeed not because you want to our grow someone but because it makes you a better, more accomplished human being.

At last, all that glitters isn't gold. Recall this line everyday!

12LPA @27 Years. Am I a failure.

12lpa @ 27 yrs age. Is it too low for this age. I see most people here reach 30+ ctc by this age and get multiple marriage offers also. I feel ashamed now, i think marriage also less chance.
