Parents forcing me to buy a flat Hello Mumbai, I'm a 27 M, from Mumbai My parents are forcing me to buy a flat in Mumbai just because they think that it will increase my chances of getting marriage approvals. I desperately need your advice. I don't want to fall into a trap as I just started earning(2019 to be specific but lock down took away 2 years) and haven't had may friends so haven't experienced anything in life yet. I fear that paying 50 to 60% of salary as EMI for 15 years is going... 3 0 replies
Why do people block the entrance in local train? Often people who travel beyond Thane (Dombivli, Diva etc) stand in the area near the entrance of the train compartment, even before reaching Kurla despite there being space inside the coach. This makes it difficult for others to both enter and leave at other stations. Why do they do it ? 1 0 replies
Is anyone else paying a very high insurance premium? I have a health insurance policy for my parents since last 13 years from an insurance provider. This year the proposed premium amount has gone up very significantly (compared to previous years). Usually the increment in premium payment ranged from 5-10% every year, but this year there is a steep hike of 40%. When I queried the insurance provider, they said it is due to high medical inflation and rising costs. As per a simple search, the medical inflation is somewhere around 12-15%. But does that give these insurance... 2 1 replies

Shittiest place I have ever been to! I visited this place and I could literally see rats running around near the oven! This place is surrounded by gutter on the backside and the worst part about this place is they accept only cash! No considerations. The food quality is below average. Dude I’ll get a 100 times better chai bun Maska at any local tapri. They’re looting in the name of vintage bakery. They serve in disposable plates and you are asked to empty the table in the middle of your meal. I think now I... 4 0 replies
Need help buying a house in Ratnagiri \*\*Posting this in Mumbai sub as there are a lot of people here who have first or second homes in Kokan. I have a remote job and now planning to buy a house.

I don't mind the migration of people to these cities but the development speed is unable to keep up with it resulting in so many issues. Now I am leaning towards Ratnagiri as... 3 2 replies

Why Do I Turn Into a Mess Around Pretty Girls? Need Advice! Bear w me please Alright, so I (25M) have been noticing this weird thing about myself. Everyone’s “pretty radar” is different, right? Like, someone might find a girl stunning while another dude thinks she’s just okay. But for me, it doesn’t matter—if she lands anywhere on my radar of cute to drop-dead gorgeous, I turn into a complete mess. For context, I’ve had zero meaningful female interaction for a long while now (not by choice—life’s just been dry). So when I see a girl I find even remotely attractive,... 4 1 replies

Recent Trip to Mumbai Here are some snapshots from my recent trip to Mumbai. Stayed in Colaba. The place is huge but it was very costly. Streets are beautiful, the vibes felt like what I feel in Kolkata. The buildings are beautiful but there’s not much cheap restaurants nearby. Got a single cafe which was quite cheap and it was beside our hotel. The hotel was alright. Overall it was nice. But all our cities are struggling from smog but couldn’t see the huge buildings properly. 4 1 replies
