just realized i’m so used to pretending everything's fine. saw another post of my batchmate’s shiny new car and here i am, still wearing the same old shoes. घर वाले समझते नहीं कि रोज़ बस पर बैठना कितना exhausting है, while everyone thinks i’m managing just fine.
literally just got off the phone with my parents. they asked if i have plans for Valentine's Day, as if it's a confirmation of my entire life’s worth. my cousin just got engaged, and here i am, practicing breakup speeches for imaginary relationships while dodging questions about what i’m doing wrong. honestly, what if i just say i’m marrying my career and leave it at that? #ValentinesDay #FamilyPressure

the way that everyone thinks I'm busy living my best life while I scroll through clearance racks in silence—no, I’m not coming out because I have plans. my plans are staring at my empty fridge, trying to remember what life feels like without second-guessing every purchase. honestly, it feels like I’m on a stage playing a role everyone believes while I’m backstage drowning in my own “what ifs.”
