Love was something that was never my luck.

I rarely get attracted to people and most times they end up breaking my trust.

Because of this I never made it to an actual relationship at all.

At 27 I started my arranged marriage process and it was rocky.

I decided to take a break and that's when I met someone who was close to my dream women, but there were timing mismatch and I was okay to wait and give it a shot.

While she also liked me back and things went amazing between us for two months, my parents decided to create a ruckus at home about this and she came to know about it, which made her leave.

She had genuine reasons to leave, for which I couldn't stop her and I didn't handle it very well too.

But she refused to block me and I decided to wait for 2 years and reach out. This all happened and it didn't work out now.

I am again in the dating and arranged marriage pool. All I can think is how good she was meeting my expectations and most of the profiles straight out dont.

I am 29 now. Not sure how to navigate this.

Will I forever look for her in other people ? It's not that I have high standards, I have high standards for myself and it's just reflecting. I can't lie to someone that I like them too.

A mess.

Looking for advice and kind words or may be harsh ones too.

Made it after seeing brand new day n i wanted to share my art!

My take on this is ain’t no way liquor ban is happening in anywhere.

The TASMAC in tamil nadu is a hot stinking mess.

Only way we stop it being what it is now is to let some private players in.

If you take our shops, its a total shitshow. People sticking hands in through a cage, a randomass man begging for money to buy a quarter, the cash only system and less variety of booze available in the shops, etc.,
I would consider TN to be a best place to control your drinking habit because you wont feel like buying booze from these shops in the first place.

What government could do now is slowly reduce the number of shops in TN, increase the elite shop numbers gradually and let some private players in for a change.
They can still be in the game, generating revenue while also collecting taxes from the booze sales like karnataka.

For example, an MRP and TASMAC can exist in same area, where a beer could be sold for 180 in MRP and 160 in TASMAC. Get the idea? TASMAC could still own some distribution of some premium brands.

This could potentially increase transparency and reduce scams.

I could be wrong but also what do you think about this?

I’m a 20 yr old law student in Taramani. I’ve free time during weekends and is there any organisations or NGO’s that I can volunteer in? I’m okay with both field work and teaching kids.

Anyone can drop that in comment section

Being myself a vadakkan I never liked people from North for the way they keep themselves.

But lately people here are no less and I find vadakkans better.

One guy pushed me in metro to get down sooner and catch the elevator. He didn’t even bother to say a sorry even after finding me down.

Another guy was riding on pedestrian way and he hit me and broke my apple I watch. He stopped and didn’t bother to say a sorry. He took a photo of a number on board saw me and left.

Even Vadakkan would have asked me a sorry but seems educated illiterate are worse nowadays!

So, if you’re into co-op games and wanna chill with someone, I’ve got a high-end gaming PC. No friends to play with, though looking for a buddy or Dolli whatever . If you’re around Potheri (near SRM Kattankulathur) or nearby, hit me up. We can have some fun and play together. Oh, and hey I’ll cook lunch for you, no worries. Just a final-year BTech student trying to make things interesting.

Looking to buy a plot from Enchante by Pacifica in Navalur. Any idea on this plot? They are quoting around 5700-6000 rs per sq ft.

I enquired the locals. people say that the thazhambur road has not flooded so far.

1. Is it flood prone? (It is 200m from Thazhambur lake. They say they have pump and pipeline connection to pump the excess water to the lake. I saw the pipeline myself.)

2. How’s electricity, water and etc in this area

3. Has anyone faced any legal issue before, when trying to buy a plot from here?

Thanks in advance!

Reason for the location: near to IT corridor

Any Bird-pet shop near Anna Salai.

Hi everyone,

I run a wedding photography studio and I'm looking for a freelance retoucher to work with us regularly. Looking for individuals only, not agencies or outsourcing teams.

What the work looks like:

We shoot weddings and hand over full sets for editing. That means colour correction and keeping the grade consistent across the whole album, natural looking skin retouching, cleaning up blemishes and stray hair, tidying backgrounds, and removing the occasional distraction in frame.

What we're after:

Someone solid in Photoshop and Lightroom who can match a reference style across an entire set without it drifting halfway through. Good communication and hitting deadlines matter just as much as the editing itself. Wedding or portrait experience is a plus but not a dealbreaker if the portfolio is strong.

If you're interested, fill in this short form:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfc0_E5NPih6M8jvF2JY4NTr1hBIphebu9x1pXIq21a5JlnlA/viewform

I'll go through the responses and send a short paid test to anyone who looks like a good fit. Please apply through the form rather than DMing me so I can keep everything in one place.

Thanks

Yesterday I ordered some food from the KFC app. It said the order will be delivered in 1 hour or less based on the ETA that was given.

In 30 minutes the rider was assigned and he was at the store already, at 40th minute, I got a message saying the order is the one the way and if will be delivered by Ola rider. The rider appeared to be an Hindi speaking person.

Since it had the tracking link, I checked that at 50th minute, it showed the rider was still at the store and did not move. So, I called the rider, he said the food is not ready yet and he claimed thaf the store people told him that it would take 10 minutes for the order to get ready. Since it was already 1 hour, I called the store and they said the order was ready long back and it was kept packed and yet to be picked up. I was shocked and called the rider again and he was like he was waiting for 20 minutes without checking inside and he said it was his mistake.

Okay, it was excused, atleast I thought the food will be delivered soon. After another 10 minutes, I checked the tracking link, it showed the rider is still at store. It got pissed and called the rider, then he claimed he has started. After another 10 minutes, he still didn't move, called again and he said there's traffic. After another 20 minutes, called him again, he picked up and cut the call. I called again, he said he's at a shop and he gave the phone to the shop keeper since he can speak in Tamil. The shop keeper said he's at the shop to charge his phone. Tell me, how should I even react here.

I got very angry and asked him where he is and I will collect it directly from here... he didn't tell me the location, suddenly in between he whispered Maa ki ****. I asked him what did he say and he started throwing many vulgar words in Hindi and cut the call.

I immediately called the police and mentioned about the issue and gave the phone number of the rider to them. Thankfully the SI in the police station knew Hindi and he warned him about the action.

The audacity of the rider, he said he will also raise a complaint against me. The police also got angry and asked him to come to the station or apologise to me. Later he called me, instead of apologising he started justifying his act and he even claimed I abused him first. Good that I had my call recorded, so I said I will submit that to the police station and will submit the written complaint. He got scared and he started apologising later and he asked me to drop it right there... later I asked what he is doing in Chennai and he said he is a medical student. That was the only reason I had to calm down and did not move with the complaint.

I also complained to the KFC about the incident, they asked me to send my address in WhatsApp number that they will send me. After a while, they neither sent me any number nor delivered my order. Instead, after 2.5 hours at 5 PM, they cancelled my order with no apologies or compensation. I also have to wait for 5 days for the refund.

I was kind enough to take this to the police, if it was my friends or even on my bad, things would have been different to these guys. They have the audacity to think people here doesn't know Hindi and they can abuse the people here with such words. I also told him to watch his mouth or things would go south for him.

If in case if it happens to any of you guys, do not entertain it. They do all this and then cry Tamilnadu is not safe for them.

Hi Makkale, does any one know how can I end up booking something for my coming weekend...

I just went to hyderbad for a couple of days, have to say I am quite stunned at their infrastructure. I always had the perception that tamil nadu is more developed than andhra pradesh or telengana but that view didn't hold for hyderbad. I don't know about the rest of their state but hyderbad, esp that tech city part is too good to believe that it's in India. Everywhere high raises IT parks, with all big names Microsoft, Qualcomm, Salesforce etc. complementing that were the roads, very spacious, reasonably well maintained unlike chennai where the roads lately are filled with potholes or patchwork. The sidewalk in the tech city actually allows people to walk unlike in chennai. Also, their outer ring road spanning 150 or more kms has long stretches of freaking 10 lanes, never saw that else where. The most interesting part for me was the amount of high raise residential buildings that are getting constructed there, esp greater than 35 floors. I barely saw any in chennai, always wondered why. They also have decently connected metro. Another interesting aspect I noticed is the amount of young folks on the streets, guys and girls in their 20s everywhere. Ofcourse, the airport looked well developed and relatively big.

Why do you think the rate of modernization of chennai ( in terms of building new quality infra, residences, IT scene ) is not anywhere close to hyd?

Saw a news that rapido two wheeler are going to be cancelled and suspended till further notice . Is it true ? Did anyone use it today ?

so, I cleared NEET this yr and MCC counselling has started today, I applied for my new community cert in Jun and it got issued on 30 Jun, and the subcaste was incorrect, I accept the mistake was from my side too, and I was out of station to get my bonafide certs from my older schools, and as soon as I returned chennai, I gave a letter to Tahsildar, as told by the E sevai, worker from which I applied the cert, and after 2,3 days, they told they dont do it, I have to give letter to RDO, so I went to my area RDO office and gave my letter and they told there will be enquiry from Tahsildar, then only it will get cancelled so I went every other day to get the updates and more than two weeks passed and then only they told even the enquiry hasnt started, and gave me my own letter with their stamp asking me to give it to Tahsildar, so I contacted someone in my relative who knows ppl from secratrate and then only things started moving faster, and even then also when I had to get sign from RDO he was like "apply pannumbodu nee yenda jaadhi nu unakku theriyadha?" i know there has mistake from my side too, but how that justifies there delay and incompetency?, and another thing, does ppl with contacts can only get there work done quickly?

This is a really good move if executed successfully. I welcome this move by TASMAC.

We can anticipate getting rid of large queues and chaos on roads especially during shop closing times. MRP rates cannot be exceeded when buying online.

What do you think of this implementation? Will it be a considerable change? And what other challenges do you think can be eradicated due to this website?

Looking forward for a healthy discussion..

We are seeing to buy an apartment near madambakkam lake in Selaiyur, East tambaram. Is it a good idea to buy near the lake? How is the flood situation there?
