When did you realise you needed a partner?

I dint realise I needed a partner until I had one. I had an arranged marriage at the age of 23 which I feel was pretty early. I wanted to explore and have fun on my own but 8 months after joining my first job covid lockdown happened and everything changed because of work from home.

My cousin who was 25 at that time was getting married and my parents said it took 2 yrs to get the right match for my cousin and will take the same time for me. I dint really care at that time but a month later I got a request from my husbands matrimony profile.
I rejected it :P because I dint want to marry anyone as I was doing the same with other requests. But eventually there are these local matchmakers in our community who had my husbands biodata and gave it to my parents and they visited him and liked him a lot.

Marriage was an alien concept to me and I was always scared abt it. But when the wedding dates were fixed I talked to him and found out he is also a person who feels the same as I do. 
1) He heard me out.
2) Asked me if Im willing to go ahead with the wedding.
3) Asked my dreams and aspirations

All these things made me realise maybe I just go ahead and marry him. Sometimes we get this gut feeling about certain things and they turn out to be exactly the way we think. Marrying my partner was one such quick decision and it was the best decision of my life.

When we are in school or college we always have a gang of friends to spend time with but as we go older I think having a partner is good. We might think it adds complications in life but trust yourself that when you meet the right person life becomes more fun and meaningful.
You have someone whom you can eat with, travel, watch series, discuss about your worries, your insecurities, advice you when you go wrong, supports you, etc..

I know friends and family can do this but having a partner- that one person for you as a whole is great

I switched my work organization😉

First of all thank you for coming here to read my blogs. I haven't posted for a long time now and believe I will be more consistent going forward.  I joined a new organization 2 days back and it feels like the best decision I have taken in a while. I believe we must all keep looking for growth in all aspects of life. Be it career or health or emotional growth. Sometimes you get stuck in a loop of doing things and no matter how much you work hard you are never appreciated or more problems arise. A similar situation happened to me in life where I felt no amount of work is getting me out of this loop.  I had some really crappy work surrounded by tough people to handle. When I decided to switch my job for monetary and other reasons it was very hard to get any interview calls.  The key here is to keep believing. I never believed because market is bad and stuff but my husband kept constantly applying to jobs on my behalf. I had some mental breakdowns due to the work wherein I h...

Dealing with Anger😈

Being angry is something that I do most of the time especially on my family because I never react at work or anywhere else as much as I feel free to do it at home. The main victim of my anger is my younger sister. It’s also true that she irritates me most of the time but she is kind of curious of things I do and tries to lookout to me to help her and I just scream and send her away. We also tend to do it with our mom’s more frequently. She asks us if we had lunch or dinner and we end up screaming at her asking her not to disturb because we are too busy in something which might not be that important than eating on time. Always think for a minute before you scream or be rude to someone because it’s not their fault to come and talk to you so that you show your frustration on them. Relax and enjoy things while doing them because having a cool mind gets the best out of you in any situation rather than a panicking person.

Read this if you feel sick and unwell all the time..

  This post is just to change your narrative on health if you have been feeling sick or being called a sick person all the time. I would like to explain this using my life story. I have been the most adventure loving fun person I know throughout my life but I stopped believing this narrative and started feeling sick and lazy and it all started during the onset of covid. If you would have known me before this phase you would have rarely seen me sick. I would have cried a few times because of teen life crisis but it had nothing to do with my health. Even on family trips to hills I have never felt nauseated. During the 8 months of being a fresher I had lot of freedom and money to buy and eat things I want and there were times I used to eat 2 small size pizzas around 10:30 pm. It dint do anything to me but the results showed up during locked down where I gained around 8 kgs. I had work for the entire day during this fresher phase and my onset of frequent headaches started. This is when...
