Listens toOver 18
Last activein last week
Dear friends,
Hey, I’m a 17-year-old who just stepped into junior college after finishing high school, but life kind of started teaching me way earlier than that. I’ve been living in a hostel for the past 10 years, and that experience alone has exposed me to a lot different kinds of people, emotions, struggles, and stories. I’ve seen and understood things like anxiety, loneliness, teenage love, and heartbreak up close. While I’ve had my own share of experiences, I’ve also spent a lot of time supporting friends through theirs especially during tough phases like breakups and emotional lows. Over time, I’ve learned how to genuinely listen and be there for someone without judging them.
I’m not someone who claims to have everything figured out but I do believe I’ve developed a deeper understanding of people and emotions compared to most my age. That’s what I try to bring here: a safe space where you can talk freely, vent, or just feel heard.
A little about me beyond that :
I love reading. I started with self-help, but fiction completely changed the game for me. Stories feel more real sometimes, and they’ve shaped how I see life and people. My all-time favorite is A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini I’ve read all his works, and his storytelling stays with you. I used to enjoy rom-coms too, but now I look for stories with depth and meaning.
I’m also into movies, but only the ones that leave an impact. Some of my favorites include meaningful classics and underrated gems—I appreciate cinema that makes you think or feel something real.
Fitness is another big part of who I am. I’m someone who enjoys intense workouts, sprinting, and pushing physical limits. I’ve had phases where I lost consistency, but I’m actively working on getting back stronger—that process of rebuilding yourself is something I relate to deeply.
I love the idea of traveling and exploring cultures. So far, I’ve only been to Varanasi, but that experience stuck with me. I’ve set a personal goal to explore major cities across India by 2030. I’m especially drawn to places rich in culture and history : Udaipur, Kolkata, and even Persian regions like Iran fascinate me. I like discovering places that aren’t overly explored.
I’m also someone who’s curious about growth.....whether it’s personal development, understanding people better, or even thinking about building something meaningful in the future. I’m interested in tech, startups, and creating a life that’s impactful.
If you’re going through something, anything at all and need someone who will truly listen without judging, I’m here. Whether it’s overthinking, stress, relationships, confusion about life, or just wanting someone to talk to, you can reach out.
And yeah, if you’re from Bengal, definitely text me....there’s something about the culture, people, and vibe that I really admire :)
You don’t have to go through things alone.
