Has anyone of you gone through this?
So..3 years ago I shifted to Melbourne Australia for a masters program. I quit my job in India and came here to start afresh. Last year, I had this sudden urge to go back to India and even went through a few interviews as well but the salary was obv very low and my parents told me that the ROI is also low. I understood that made up my mind and forgot that I could go back (I come from a decent family, upper middle class sorts). I took up a part time job and joined another diploma just to make my CV slightly better. In the mean time my parents started looking for rishtas for me and found two both of which I rejected. Now they want me to come back and are saying that we'll get you a job here that is well paying and all but I know my heart and mind both will never align with this decision. My younger brother has come to visit me and they've told him as well to try and explain to me that everyone around me is settled and I should settle as well and for that I should come back, but I don't want to. Am I wrong in thinking that?
