| 0:00.0 | My toxic fiance is constantly putting me down for losing my job, making fun of the fact that I'm unemployed, while also making sure I understand that I'm useless. |
| 0:09.5 | But now, even after waiting several months to finally get a new job, I still feel incredibly awful, because right now I really don't know what to do. |
| 0:17.4 | Here's what happened. Okay, to start things out, I was in a decent job. It paid me decently well, and I loved what I did. I could sustain myself without depending on anyone. For a bit of background, I come from a broken home. There's a lot of alcohol and mistreatment. There was name calling. I mean, honestly, you name it, and I dealt with it, which basically meant that I never wanted to stay home. I struggled through my college |
| 0:37.7 | days surviving on one meal a day. Sometimes if my friends would share their meal, I would eat with them, |
| 0:42.9 | but otherwise I just went for a walk. In fact, I used to walk every day up and down to college |
| 0:47.6 | just to save money on the bus fare. Somehow I got through graduation, and with some hard work and luck, |
| 0:52.9 | I got into Tata Institute |
| 0:54.6 | of Social Sciences in Mumbai, India. |
| 0:57.2 | And I completed all of my studies on scholarships. |
| 1:00.2 | So coming back to my family, I wanted to move out and as soon as I got a decent job, |

| 1:08.5 | And while I was in Bangalore, I regained my health and my career. |
| 1:12.1 | Finally, I could focus and excel at my job without much distraction. All this while, I never got |
| 1:17.3 | into any relationships. I wanted to focus on my career and seek out God. And then, one fine day, |
| 1:22.9 | I got a text from a girl on Instagram. And at the time, I just ignored it. I never really believed in |
| 1:27.7 | online love, but she was insistent, so I gave in. We then started talking, and soon enough, we were in love. Moreover, by then, I was 33 years old, and since I didn't come from a good family, no family ever wanted to marry their daughter to me, so under pressure, I thought, why not just give it a try? We were in a long-term |
| 1:44.8 | relationship, and then we finally decided to meet up. Well, we eventually met, and trust me, |
| 1:49.8 | on the very next day, she started fighting me. And at the time, I thought all women are moody, |
| 1:54.5 | and perhaps nothing to worry about. We stayed in a long-term relationship, but kept meeting |
| 1:58.8 | often, until one final day that she kicked me in |
| 2:01.6 | anger, and I was honestly shocked, but as much as I was angry and upset, I just let it go. Then this |
