I hope to find a research-related job and stay on in Mumbai. I recently came across a guy on social media who seems to be nice. We exchange messages on a daily basis. He’s from Mumbai and one of the reasons why I want to be in this city. I don’t have many friends here so he’s special. The only thing that’s troubling me is my decision to shift just for this one guy. Am I thinking way ahead of me? Or should I just keep this ‘special’ friendship restricted to the virtual world?
