NRI Woman in Canada Considers Returning to India
A woman who moved from India to Canada when she was a teenager is thinking about moving back to India.
She feels like she doesn't fit in very well in Canada, even though she has a good job and has lived there for a long time.
She's not sure what it would be like to live in India as a single woman, but she thinks she might feel more connected to the culture there.
She asked people on the internet for advice, and some people told her to try spending more time in India before making a decision, while others told her to appreciate what she has in Canada and try to make more friends.
A 30-something NRI woman in Canada is considering moving back to India due to feeling disconnected from Canadian culture.
She has lived in Canada since her teenage years, built a career, and has a stable job.
She finds professional interactions in Canada to be performative and surface-level, and struggles to build a new circle of friends.
She is unsure about what it's like for single women in India due to traditional family structures.
Social media users offered various perspectives, including trying an extended vacation in India, appreciating what she has in Canada, and finding friends with common interests.
