I feel like I don't fit into any of the stereotypes about women. Society tells us how to act, dress, and even think, but what if I don't check any of those boxes? Is it okay to be different, or am I doomed to be an outcast forever? How do we find our place in the world when we don't fit the mold?

Hello , There’s no definitive to true and real beauty these norms are just set by society. No bible or any mythological book tells if you don’t match the societal boxes you’re deviant or outgroup . Embrace yourself with confidence All the best 🌸

Why not? But be aware to avoid doing the same mistakes which you had done in first marriage. Try to first find what you want in your partner? clear your expectations with your partner first. Even listen to his. Then decide to marry to him or not.

Ofcourse! Why not?

Is it really tough as a single woman (separated, divorced, widowed, unmarried) in India? Can you share your experiences, both pleasant or unpleasant? @Zanzanil

it's depends on men's mind I am also working but my husband is always support me

Popular opinion

Hey @Zanzanil My sister recently got divorced. Being an engineer she was treated like a slave, she tried to make it work for one whole year, you just can't believe what she went through… In spite of being intelligent, beautiful and well-educated, she was afraid to leave that hell just thinking of what people would think about her. Why is divorce still a taboo for women in India? Even though the husband physically abuses her, society expects women to adjust. Why?

This is something I ask my self everytime something like this happens. But I guess India is now progressing too and having convos about this taboo

RelationshipCoach_DrGujral・-14d

We have been conditioned as a society that divorce is bad, that it is the women's responsibility to adapt to the new people and husband and make her marrige work. In case of a divorce, it is mostly said that the girl is at fault. So, we need to break free from this kind of regressive thinking and give a message to all the girls, that it is OK to separate if you basic human rights are violated in a marriage.

Popular opinion

Hey girls, have you ever wondered why it's always us asking to tie a rakhi? Why don't boys need our protection? Are we really seen as incapable of defending ourselves? What do you think?

Girls are usually more emotional and under the influence of moon, so, however, strong via, we still want someone to love us and protect us. That’s why usually girls hierarchy.

theintrovertgirl・-24d

I agree with you, sometimes I also get this thought. I guess we can't change it as it is in our culture that has been going on for ages now.
