Living alone was the dumbest decision of my life i swear.I relate to this episode a lot, I remember a time when i was so fucking lazy to make myself a meal I didn’t eat for 1 and half day and i was just drinking water the whole time and binge watching Netflix and surprisingly enough i wasn’t even that hungry and so i freaked out a little bit when i realised I didn’t eat anything, so i boiled a big potato just because i was scared that i was gonna die( still lazy to make myself a nice meal at that point) 💀💀💀 that incident surprised me, the extent broo….. i can literally watch Netflix for 2 days and not eat💀💀
Same!! like I didn't know I could sleep for 12 hours continuously and then eat a bag of chips and Oreos and drink a glass of water and sleep again!! I'm so glad I'm living with my parents again💀
Can relate to this so much although i live in a hostel when i didn't had any roommate i use to eat one meal only somedays as i was sooo lazy to just go downstairs and eat at mess all i did except for studing was laying in bed and watching crap! I think this mentality of living alone is very overrated living independently does not mean you have to stay alone !
My personal question how you managed the grocery house chores cooking 3 meals your studies or job making budget going out with friends and then being lazy
Naina is the internet person I look up to the most, and i was absolutely STUNNED when I heard the breaking ice story because that's my guilty pleasureeee
dying at naina being like “i don’t even drive and i took the car keys, reversed the car out, put it back and went back upstairs” like PLSS 😭 need a comedy family drama series w these two to watch that moment play out alone
I have been a messy gal since childhood because I have always been too occupied mentally, in survival mode, seeking emotional safety and solving everything in my head from the age of perhaps as a 8 yr old kid, and I was shamed for being disorganized and now I am in my 20s, I am still told I am not organized, but now I don't organize out of rebellion and dont feel like doing it just to to be a good girl. People who are mixed up mentally, don't give a damn about cleaning and decorating their surroundings everyday. 1 baar karlia in a month, that's more than enough. 3 months is the longest duration I didn't clean up the clutter in my room while living abroad alone,, half my bed was covered with random stuff, the whole floor was covered with random stuff, by 3rd month I didn't have a spot to step my feet on the floor bcz it was covered with stuff. But I was depressed for months, I didn't clean up the clutter, and then I did because I needed space to walk and get to the other side of the room.
This was cathartic to read. I wish I was wired different but the mess is what it is. Literally my bed is covered with things outside the amount of space it takes for a person to lie down 😂
I don't usually comment on yt videos, im a silent subscriber but I MUST SAY, this podcast just makes my day. its so funny, I don't just laugh in my head I actually LAUGH. Love the raw and candidness, pls never stop. LOL - Lots of Love xD
there is so much difference if you watch vlogs or the way Dolly or Kushka talks, so humbled and so sensitive to the topic of her parents but its sad how this sounds a little disrespectful towards the parents and shallow.

I've lived alone for over 10 years...and now I'm addicted to it. I need peace and quiet. Great, relevant choice of topic. Can't believe this is the first time I've found this as a topic of discussion from the young generation. A+ on choice of topic. Ranveer Allahbadia toh (hutiya ho gaya hai 😅😅😅😅...patri se utar raha hai....this podcast is the only one that im listening to every episode... thoda ek ladkon par bhi banao...n please talk with compassion about men...bahot starvation hai media main regarding a compassionate conversation about men...bahot jyada negativity hai admion ko le ke media main aur marriage n divorce laws in India are absolutely crazy....
I really question the existence of sakshi. . . She is an absolute candidate for the chairman of nincompoop party of India .. i don't know how to use a washing machine... Wow dude
Your camera people..if theyre hoping to build a career doing anything in the media...even a fucking security guard in a media company and they keep loosing focus like literally every few seconds....then...
Is podcasting the next fad thing in India. Every one is doing that as per my you tube algorithm. I guess it's so sad that physical conversations are so rare now because we all are glied to our phones that now we are watching other people talking on our mobile screens. I am currently living in a suburb in usa and honestly with the cosmopolitan crowd I have in my rental apartment it's hard to make any social group. My neighbours are Algerian speak broken English ,others are balkan Muslims from Albania and Kosovo. The only Indian people I have are from down south who always socialise in their own community clusters. I guess the loneliness ake is more glied to our cellphones. I think India is soon catching up with this apartment BHK style lifestyle which alienated us from a neighbourhood culture. Sad that we are transforming into this AI ,ALGORITHM DRIVEN LIFE
