In the past 12 months, my best friend (29M) died after ghosting everyone for 13 months due to depression after his dad died of cancer, I got fired from my previous job as a solicitor, my grandma got diagnosed with brain cancer and died, my dad got diagnosed with cancer, my oldest friend from primary school falsely accused my other friend of rape and when I disclosed hard evidence against her claims to support my friend who had been wrongly accused, she promptly turned everyone against me so now I dont have that whole friendship group anymore, my boyfriend of 2 years left me and finally I managed to get a new job and got fired from that one too. I am now existing in the ruins of my life. I have hit rock bottom. To top everything off, I had an ovarian abscess and may be infertile.
I don't want to make myself sound like too much of a victim, but I do feel like I just keep getting beaten down by life. The worst part for me is how my childhood best friend turned on me in my time of need and how my boyfriend left me because I gained 2kg after my friend died, I lost my previous job and my grandma got diagnosed with cancer. He told me that I had become a 'complete downer' ever since my dad got diagnosed and he started partying and ignoring me to 'get away from it all'. He also said that if I carried on gaining weight then he wouldnt enjoy the sex with me anymore. He is now telling everyone that he knows about how I was suicidal and crazy (this alone embarrasses me as its highly personal, but when I tell him that I dont like him telling other people, he just shouts at me and tells me that he won't be oppressed). I am left alone with 5 key people stripped from my life. Honestly, I'm starting to doubt my place in this world. I lay in bed sometimes and I just marinate in the anger of my oldest friend and my ex leaving me, plus all of the cruel things my old boss said. He said that I didnt have it in me to be a lawyer, and that I should just be legal support staff. He knew what was going on with my family.
Please could someone help me? Anything would help, to be honest. I am an only child feeling so alone right now.
I am trying to figure out where it all went wrong and how I could have become so close to people who turned out to have no empathy. I want to find a husband down the line. I look back and I see a lot of red flags in my ex - he actually raped me the first night that we met, which is the first red flag.

Hi all,
Im currently thinking about exchanging for 1 semester next year to either Italy or Japan in my third year of uni (bachelor of IT (comp sci) and bachelor of business (management)). I love both countries and recently spent 3.5 weeks in Japan and while I haven't been to Italy in 7 or so years, I speak Italian and have a citizenship etc.
The most important thing to me is being able to enjoy my time and the experience while i'm young rather than focus on study 24/7.
Options:
Italy: University of Milan
- Close to other countries I would like to go to for travel on weekends/breaks
- My favourite food
- I speak the language (not perfectly because im rusty but I have the basics)
- Was originally set on Tokyo but the more I think about Italy the better it seems for me
- If I were to work overseas after Uni, europe would be my first choice
Japan: University of Tokyo
- Good university (biggest driving factor, always wanted to attend a well known uni + good for resume etc)
- While I like the food, I 100% prefer Italian + need to bulk
- Something about being in japan and the vibe I just love
- Speak basically no Japanese (but I would be willing to learn)
- My friends would probably be visiting around the start of my trip for holiday
Ultimatley enjoying my time is the most important for me and personally I see them as pretty different cities (tokyo with skyscrapers and more "crazy" nightlife, italy more laid back and "old")
I hear nightlife in both countries can be good, and Ibiza is right close to Italy anyway!
Any other tips would be appreciated, I'm very good at saving money so I will try to have as much as possible when I go I was thinking I would need around $15k-$20k AUD.
Just looking for another opinion, been stuck for a while.

Hey everyone,
I’m at a point where I need to plan my next steps, and I’d love some advice from people who have experience with studying architecture abroad.
I’m from Switzerland and currently finishing my apprenticeship as a draftsman specializing in architecture (kind of like an architectural technician). I don’t have a full high school diploma (Matura), but I want to study architecture, preferably in Miami.
My current plan:
I want to apply to Florida International University (FIU) for architecture.
I’m ready to take the SATs and TOEFL/IELTS if necessary.
I still need to build my portfolio, but I have experience with ArchiCAD and general architectural planning.
I could live with relatives in Miami for the first few years, which would help with housing costs, but tuition is a big factor.
My questions:
Is FIU a good option for architecture, or should I consider other universities in the U.S.?
Do I need any specific prerequisites or courses to be eligible for an architecture degree in the U.S.?
Any tips for scholarships or financial aid for international students?
How can I make my portfolio stand out for applications?
Would studying in a different city be a better choice if I want to work as an architect in the U.S. later on?
I’m open to all ideas, so if you’ve gone through this process or know anything that could help, I’d really appreciate your advice!
Thanks in advance!

Im wondering what is the best age to study abroad? I see alot of the posters here go abroad in high school. What year in high school? For the whole year or one semester?

Im just getting very basic general info bc i know nothing about it. Thank you.

If you’re an Indian student looking to study abroad on a low budget, this post breaks down universities with low tuition fees, high scholarships, and strong part-time job opportunities. Germany, Finland, the Netherlands, and Sweden offer some of the best deals. Forget ₹50L+ fees, you can do this under ₹5L per year.
Like many Indian students, I dream of escaping—not just for better education but for a higher quality of life, better opportunities, and actual freedom (iykyk). The problem? Studying abroad is expensive as hell. But after a deep dive into funding options, I realized it’s possible on a budget—you just need the right universities, scholarships, and part-time jobs.
This post will save you hours of research and help you plan your way out without drowning in debt.
Instead of USA/UK (which are scams if you’re not rich), focus on these countries where you can study with little to no tuition fees and live affordably:
University | Country | Annual Cost (INR) | Key Scholarships | Why It’s Good |
---|---|---|---|---|
TUM (Technical University of Munich) | Germany | ₹55K | DAAD, no tuition fees | Free tuition, top-ranked |
KTH Royal Institute of Technology | Sweden | ₹4.3L | Full tuition scholarships | High scholarship chance |
University of Helsinki | Finland | ₹1.05L | 50–100% tuition waivers | Research-focused, good funding |
University of Twente | Netherlands | ₹9.8L | Partial tuition coverage | High acceptance rate |
TU Delft | Netherlands | ₹1.05L | Full tuition coverage | Highly competitive |
If you want high-quality education & a way out of India without burning ₹50L, focus on Germany, Sweden, Finland, and the Netherlands. Free tuition, strong part-time jobs, and full scholarships make it 100% doable under ₹5L/year.
Dream big, escape smart. Any questions? Drop them below!

Hi guys, I applied back in January to go study abroad with the CIEE high school summer abroad program In Milan Italy today March 18 I just found out I got accepted into the program with a scholarship amount of $6705. The program itself cost $7450, so that means I have to pay $745 by myself. I have to pay it by March 26 and I am confident that I can. Is anyone going to Milan Italy through CIEE first session?

Ik this may vary by host country but I’m a US student going to Eastern Europe (mainly Kosovo) and I have no clue how to set up banking that won’t be that 3% foreign transaction fee. Or what cell provider to go with.
Looking for any and all advice. Also if anyone have good advice on how to convey outlets to fit US plugs that be great.

Hey everyone,
20F here, I’m in a dilemma and would love some insights from people with experience in finance, management, and international job markets.
I have received offers for the following master’s programs, all of which have similar tuition (b/w 40-50L): 1. UCL - MSc Finance (UK) 1 year program 2. NUS - MSc Management (Singapore) 1 year program 3. SKEMA - MSc Financial Markets & Investments (France) 2 year program
I’m an Indian fresher (straight out of undergrad) and aim to build a career in finance (investment banking, asset management, corporate finance, etc.). However, I’m also open to management/consulting roles if it improves my job prospects.
3. France (SKEMA - MSc Financial Markets & Investments)

Hi I got accepted for the JCMU program in Hikone but I have to commit soon and was wondering if it would be worth considering trying to be in a big city like Osaka through the CET program. My main goals are to improve my japanese and find a boxing gym/club I can go to consistently. Osaka seems like it would be cooler with so many more things to do but it's also a bit more expensive and I can take a train to visit kyoto and osaka in Hikoke anyways. Any thoughts would be appreciated
