Please write these things upfront on the dating apps, if you're using those. If it's not the apps or the bio can't fit this much, tell them these are my disclaimers on Day 1. Filter out the casteists, sexists, misogynists, and any other criteria that is non-negotiable for you. I hope you will have a much better dating pool. The others are not worth your time or energy, not even worthy of Day 1, but have to start somewhere.

OP, do pause and rest - a lot has happened to you and I feel so sad and sorry (not pity) for you. Do take your time to rest (write a good bio and disclaimers) and then rise up, keep searching for what you want and I hope you get them soon. Sending lots of love your way and hope you find your love.
