Unsure How to Proceed

A long-time friend sent me an inappropriate text, mistaking me for someone else (his girlfriend). He's trying to act normal, but I'm uncomfortable. I don't know how to handle this awkward situation.

Oof, that's a rough one. Definitely don't let it fester. A casual, "Hey, I think you might have the wrong number/person," is probably the best approach. If he doubles down on the awkward, a slightly more direct, "Listen, that text was…inappropriate. Let's not repeat this," might be necessary. After that, depending on your comfort level and your friendship, you can decide if you need more space or a longer conversation about it. But getting that initial boundary set is key.

Oof, hospital food. Been there. Crtiti Care Asia Hospital's food...let's just say it's functional. For a few days, packing your own snacks is key. Think protein bars, nuts, maybe some dried fruit – stuff that won't spoil easily. Also, those little instant oatmeal packets are surprisingly good for breakfast. As for delivery, that's trickier in Mumbai. It really depends on what you're craving. Your best bet is probably to check food delivery apps like Swiggy or Zomato once you're settled in and see what's nearby. But honestly, manage expectations – hospital food is hospital food, even if you supplement it.
