#C27529 I just need to let this out before I lose my mind. If someone wrote my last 30 days as a movie script, the director would reject it for being too unrealistically cruel. I am a 33-year-old guy working for IT Company at Chennai, and this past month has convinced me that my life's current "design" is just to test how much stress one human can take. Part 1: The Matrimony Mockery I’ve been looking for an arranged marriage. I connected with a girl aged 27-year-old who works at ITES Company at Chennai, and we went on a meeting and a shopping date. I wanted to be a gentleman and be completely transparent, so I told her clearly. Take your time to decide before you invite us to meet your family, because I don't believe in rejecting people after the formal family meet." She agreed, we had the family meet at their place, and guess what? They rejected us. The reason? My family status is "a bit too high" for them. We didn't spoke anything regarding to dowry and we clearly have no demands, Why agree to the meet if that was going to be the dealbreaker? Part 2: Corporate Salt on the Wound Trying to shake off the rejection, I headed back to my office. Day one back on the road, and boom—my car gets into an small accident on the way to work, a slight damage on door, fender and bumper I finally get to my desk, shake off the accident adrenaline, and open my inbox to find my annual appraisal letter. Result? Zero hike. They blamed project and company performance. But hey, they generously gave me a "dry promotion"—a shiny new designation change that does absolutely nothing for my bank account, but looks great on my email signature. Yay me? To top it off, management decided to roll out a selective "Return to Office" policy. It heavily targets Chennai residents like me, forcing us back to the desk daily, while completely ignoring employees living outside Chennai who get to continue working comfortably from home. Part 3: The Universe’s Final Punchline I finally get my car back from the garage after the first accident. I paid the bills, took delivery, and drove it home. The very next day, I'm driving minding my own business, and a driving school vehicle rear-ends me. A driving school car. You literally cannot make this stuff up. Aga motham naan nimadhiya vazha kudaadhu nu design la irukku pola... I’m just exhausted. No love life, a dry promotion with zero money, unfair office politics, and my car has become a magnet for accidents which never happened in 10+years of driving. I don't even know whether to cry or laugh at the sheer absurdity of it all. Thanks for listening to my rant

I want to be empathetic, but someone who has gone through seriously horrific incidents for more than over 2 decades, I feel pity for you. Be thankful these are your only problems, because if life gives you real lemons, you wouldn't be one of the people making lemonade for sure.
Even if all of these happens in a few hours, life’s not shit Think about it bro, you have a good job and drive a car to office You’ll get some good girl, regarding hike? Change the job! Regarding car, drive a bike!
Halka Mon – Your Safe Space To Be Heard
You need a vacation bro. Also you need some positive thinking. You dodged a bullet, if girls family thinks you are too high class for them , they could have thought from alimony angle. Accident , atleast you didn't get hurt. Appraisal zero , havc you heard of layoffs happening , please be grateful you have a job. Count your blessings bro. There are people in worse off situations and still pullinh through. And yes no director will make this movie ,now . When you make a turnaround in life and see what better things were waiting for you , then yes it can be made into movie. Best wishes thambi.
Leave everything for now focus on ur driving, and the roads
Isn't the every day for any normal human being...Not finding anything unusual..Just day to day activities...
It's okay 😂 This too shall pass. I think you took that rejection way too personally, so everything that followed is annoying you even more. Firstly, don't take that rejection personally. Maybe it was out of that girl's control. Her parents might have felt inferior or intimidated by the difference in status. And sometimes people make up all kinds of reasons to avoid something. Don't read too much into it. Secondly, be careful on the roads.
2days experience cannot break a person. Cheer up and work smartly, you will find right things at right time :)
Abhi toh yeh shuruat hai, imagine if you had got married , imagine how many accidents, do you think the wife don't drive and they don't make accidents... If you are tensed with such little drama where you got saved in all cases without any amputations?..... That's called stress, it has nothing to do with external events, it's internal mismanagement, chaos or plain shallow breathing.......join yoga classes immdtly........then ppl will hit you and you will hit them with a unrelenting smile
Why are you connecting all? It seems your mind is disturbed. Each and every person faces problems in daily life. Why are you taking it so seriously? Be grateful that nothing happened to you in accident....be grateful that in this recession period you still have work....be grateful that you are rejected by a person instead of suffering after marriage.....trust the reason.....there may be something hidden in every action. Take it in good spirit and enjoy life as it comes. If you think marriage is the only ultimate point to stay happy, just remove it from mind. Grow in career, start meditation at least five minutes in a day. Give time for yourself. You will get a good life partner too. Don't be so negative.
Life is good when these are the problems that eat you alive. But as someone said, the greatest grief is always your own. Stay strong my brother
You are connecting unconnected events. Pls be more logical
मुझे लगा कोई भारी समस्या होगी... 😡
Laugh it out and move on... My facebook feeds are full of a woman who threw her fiance from a fort .Urs respectfully rejected you.. Good... 2 accidents and u are still healthy and hearty ..again ur good luck . Office politics i have no comments..it sucks..
Men and their ‘difficult’ lives 🙄 All I hear is can’t accept a no from a woman Can’t deal with work Can’t manage first accident in 10 years Sounds like a privilege problem
This too shall pass. As for the marriage maybe you dodged a bullet
I read the entire thing and burst out laughing. Is this it ? Is this your unbearable pain ? Privileged kids are somehting else in india 😆 🤣 😂 whatever you have gone through is not even 10 percent of the problems that a random swiggy dleivery boy faces daily 😆
Dude.... So much of buildup and nothing great story. Just like your dry promotion. Your life is far better off than many who are reading this to forget their pain. These three examples are like small ant bites to an elephant. I guess you had a very easy life earlier that these small things look so heavy for you. Grow up dude
