By a bad day I mean when my personal life is bad , could just skip uni but I have to go to work. Then I'm just in a low mood at work. Or a bad day means a rlly busy day maybe where I've stayed longer

Hi, I agree I need to change to find change in my life. I thought marriage will bring me a life partner, companionship, new family in his family as well as my own family I do see peoples point that it's easier if you move out and meet people that way. I'd like to find other people like myself tho. British south Asian young girls like me that I can relate to

Yeah I noticed with the colleagues I sometimes go to dinner with after work I didn't try very hard. I was just myself and friendly. I'm friendly with everyone at work but the ones I went out with naturally gravitated towards me. I didn't speak to them with the goal to eventually socialise after work

People have mentioned this to me before but I never looked into it. What do I actually search into google and how do I pick someone? A girl at work goes to therapy every week and has been doing so for about 3 years and she said it really helps her. She had a death in the family which Ik about but I don't want to ask her how she found a good therapist

No this was two years ago now. I didn't contact her again bc I found her extreme hesitation and delay before we went out strange. I took it as a sign that she was not eager to see me. The fact that she didn't reach out herself proved to me that she didn't want to see me again. It's like I forced her to come out with me

Even if they were not, isn't that a way to become regular acquaintances or even a friend? She was very reluctant but when we were out she seemed completely different and rlly enjoyed my company. I'm not sure what went wrong

Thank you for your comment - that makes a lot of sense. I also had the "you need to be my friend" mentality when I was younger but I definitely think this has gone now. I've grown up a bit now and I don't want to be friends with every person I speak to. Even my colleagues that I go to dinner with after work naturally come up to me and chat without me chasing them. It feels natural. But I don't have that in my personal life and I feel like they'd be shocked to know that. I do want to travel. That's something I couldn't do when I was younger bc poor background. Now it's more time constraints and stuff as I don't want to solo travel

Thank you for your comment. Do you mean that when came back from Germany, you returned to your hometown? Why do you think it changed as that's interesting. I'm thinking it's hard to integrate in a hometown when you're not already integrated

Thank you for this. You are right it is hard to meet new people and integrate in a small town when I don't fit in already. I know people do this but in my culture it's v uncommon to move out before marriage and I want to live with either my parents or my partner (which I don't have)

I don't want to be so pushy at work to get them to hang out with me. If it were for a leaving do or something like that then yes. The days that I have attended after work events are like this though. However my entire weekend is free and I don't expect colleagues to hang with me when they have their own lives. My family works on the weekend or hanging out with their partners whereas I am alone. I do do things alone like gym and shopping but I'm sick of being alone

Yes I do want a partner. I want companionship and new family members. I joined an app a month ago and this weekend I've been trauma dumped. I really liked a guy and thought he liked me. He told me that there is someone from his past that he cannot forget and that he can't move forward with me bc of this. I was completely blindsided and I wasn't expecting it all. That was my first interaction with the opposite gender in a romantic sense since high school where the boys I liked used to make fun of me and one of them said they'd be embarrassed to be seen with me in public

I work in the city and I travel an hour in. Sometimes I do do after work stuff with my colleagues which I enjoy. However they're not available on the weekends when I'm alone as they have their own lives - family and friends they hang with. I work in an office

I do want to get married. I want companionship and new family members. I recently spoke to my first potential and he has trauma dumped me. He said he cannot get over his ex and that he can't move forward with me. He turned completely cold and nasty to me and I still feel numb.

Sorry I didn't mean it that way. They are very capable and don't rely on me. It is more I need them in my life. It's not very common in my culture for girls to move out before marriage and tbh apart from the space, it's not something that interests me. I need people around me and I need social interaction. I would rather live my parents as well than anyone else

Thank you. I've already graduated and am working. I can make friends easily at work and people say I'm funny. However they all have their own plans on the weekend with their own friends and family which I understand. I do go to the gym but again that's quite an isolating hobby. People don't want to rlly be bothered at the gym and when I see friends at the gym it's clear they already know each other and joined together

I do sometimes speak to people online but I want real life connections. I do watch TV and shows. I'm not interested in gaming or sports. I've never travelled before and I don't want to solo travel. I'd like to go with my mother but she has other priorities/time commitments which means she can't

Thank you for your comment. The only people I feel are genuinely interested and care for me are my parents and I don't want to leave them. Even my siblings do not ask about my life but they only use me to vent to about their own lives I would move out but I need a person - a partner or a friend. I don't want to be alone.

That's true, I haven't thought of it like that. I think I'd struggle with the long office days in winter tho when it gets dark at like 4pm.. I found it difficult this year but it is my first year in the working world

When I take my parent with me, I do find it helps. Still I've made multiple appointments about the same issue, even sent to A&E, wasted a day and sent back and they looked puzzled as to why I'm even there
