Why is it so damn hard to date someone in India as a guy?

Not felt even an ounce of pity for you.

A girl here. Lost my father when I was 2.5 yo. Single child. Don't have any memory of him. I was told half my life that he was abroad because a toddler couldn't understand what death meant. But I knew deep down that he isn't coming home. I still could not answer if someone asks where my father is. Because of the absence of a father figure, I grew up sheltered and my confidence level were absolutely shit.

Fast forward to college, My guy friend got upset one day because of something that I did and said the nastiest things about how I look. And then went on to put my number on some sites so I started getting calls from strangers for sex and shit. I had to change my number. Didn't tell anyone about this in my family because of the shame. And even if I had told somebody no one would have done anything. I still get anxious when I see an unknown number pop up on my phone.

Now I'm scared shitless of the so called nice guys.

When looking for girl, no one asked me how did you survive without important family members. All they care is bungalow, 1 lakh monthly salary, etc.

No one has ever asked me about my father either. At this point my emotions are so dried up that I dont even feel anything anymore.

I have a lot of guys friends because My girl-friends are pretty. They approach me because they think I would introduce them and would do their "setting".

Can I say you were not looking for a girl.. you were looking for a pretty girl. And I will face the same thing too If I ever wanted to get married. Guys are not saints. They are a cruel gender too.
