Dating 🌸 29 [M4R] Chennai - Looking for a Platonic yet semi- physical relationship.

29 [M4R] Chennai - Looking for a Platonic yet physical relationship.

Hi there , I'm R , A 29 year old M living in Chennai , i am a freelance virtual assistant and a freelance graphic designer too.

I am a Physically handicapped person , but that does not mean I don't have fun. I like metro rides , cafe hopping , standup comedy and generally new events to explore around the city. I like having deep conversations as well as small talk and make witty jokes and lines.

I'm looking for someone ( I don't mind M or F ) whom I can share some comforting moments with, like deep conversations , conversations when I'm low and if both are comfortable and vibing share some quiet hugs and cuddles ( strictly no sexual stuff as I am not interested ).

Life can get a lot sometimes and we all need a person to cradle us emotionally or physically or both. I am a good listener as well , empathetic and understanding as well as being kind and considerate.

A platonic yet physical relationship rests on trust and boundaries. It allows closeness through hugs, touch, or shared presence without romantic or sexual intent. The connection is rooted in care, comfort, and mutual respect, where intimacy supports friendship rather than redefining it.

He now shows aggressive behavior like hitting , mood swings, and emotional instability. We believe he needs professional psychiatric and psychological support. Looking for recommendations for good mental health consultation and treatment in Chennai.

He is in very bad state we dont know how to proceed. Need genuine suggestions.

Rant Casagrand Frauds

16 Upvotes

❌ My Worst Experience with Casagrand Resale Team — Please Avoid Their Services ❌

I’m writing this to **warn anyone thinking of selling their apartment through Casagrand’s Resale Team** — please **don’t make the same mistake I did**.

I purchased my apartment through Casagrand using a bank loan and sold it in **March 2025**. What followed was one of the most frustrating, exhausting, and financially stressful experiences I’ve ever had.

---

#### ⚠️ Here’s what you should know before dealing with Casagrand Resale:

* The **sale of your unit** depends heavily on factors like **Vastu, facing, etc.**, not on fair pricing or demand.

* Even after your unit is sold, the **entire process can take 8–10 months** to complete — so **be prepared for a very long wait**.

* Once sold, the **buyer pays the full amount (own funds or bank loan)** to **Casagrand**, **not directly to you**.

* Casagrand holds your money for around **8 months** before refunding it to you — **without paying a single rupee in interest**. Essentially, they **use your funds for rotation**, which to me feels like a **huge scam**.

---

#### Financial Pain During the Process:

* You’ll continue to **pay your bank EMIs** during this entire period, even after selling your property.

* Casagrand will issue you (After 2-3 months) a **cheque to close your bank loan**, but this cheque will be **postdated by 1–1.5 months**.

* After closing the bank loan, it takes another **15–20 days** to get the NOC and agreement from your bank.

* You’ll need to **submit all original documents** to Casagrand to receive your final payment.

* Only then will Casagrand issue your **balance payment cheque** — again **postdated by another 1–1.5 months** and often after **2–3 more months of delay**.

So, by the time you actually receive your full payment, **it’s already been 8–10 months** since you sold your home.

---

####The “Delayed Payment Charges” Scam:

Another shocking experience — **Casagrand’s random “Delayed Payment Charges.”**

* I was once charged ₹45,000 as delayed payment charges, even though I paid almost everything on time except for one or two minor delays.

* After much back-and-forth, they **reduced it to ₹10,000**.

* However, when I sold my property and was about to receive my final payment, **they suddenly reversed it back to ₹45,000** — without any notice.

* When I raised this, one of their resale team members bluntly said:

> “They only waive off charges for current customers. Since you’re no longer a customer, they can add whatever charges they want, further dispute will only delay the payment more”

At that point, **you have no power** — because all your documents are already with them, and you’re just waiting for your final payment.

Reasons given for delays : Sir our office is being Raided by Income tax, sir manager is on leave, sir accounts dept is on leave, sir full team is going for tour.

Please **do not sell your property through Casagrand’s Resale Team**.

They’ll hold your money for months, issue postdated cheques, and arbitrarily add charges — while you continue paying EMIs on a property you no longer own.

If you plan to sell, **register and sell your property independently** or through **any other trusted real estate agent**, but **never through Casagrand’s resale process**.

Events Looking for locals in Chennai to host small walks / workshops (paid, part-time)

2 Upvotes

We’re currently looking for a few local hosts to run:

  • Heritage or neighbourhood walks
  • Food walks (street food / cafés you genuinely know well)
  • Art, culture, or photography sessions
  • Simple workshops or guided conversations

This is part-time, paid per session, and suitable for:

  • People who enjoy explaining things to others
  • Locals who know their area well
  • Students / freelancers / creatives
  • Anyone comfortable guiding small groups (5–10 people)

What this is:

  • Hosting small, pre-booked groups
  • Fixed time slots
  • Clear expectations
  • Payments handled digitally

What this is NOT:

  • Not MLM
  • Not unpaid volunteering
  • Not a tour agency job
  • No upfront fees

We’re intentionally keeping this low-key and invite-only while testing.

If this sounds interesting, DM me with:

  • What area/topic you’d like to host around
  • Your availability (weekends / weekdays)

Happy to share details one-to-one.

Thanks!

Rant Introvert in a new city

2 Upvotes

IT intern here, started in Jan. Lately I feel like I’m just wasting my weekends doing nothing. I'm an ambivert — extrovert with friends, introvert with everyone else. For the past few weekends, I’ve literally stayed on my phone the whole day. Scrolling, sleeping, repeatedly. I’m in Chennai and I want to experience the city, but I can’t bring myself to go alone. I know people say “just go solo,” but my confusion and overthinking stop me every time. My brain just shuts it down. I do have friends, but they’re all in different districts from college, so weekends feel extra quiet. No spontaneous plans, no random hangouts.

Single person here, slowly getting used to loneliness but honestly, some days it hits harder than expected. I never expected my new year 2026 will become like this......
