I have graduated recently and I want to take entrepreneurship now. I have failed in few ideas before and the dna is bringing me back to entrepreneurship. How to do market research and search for ideas. How to find the problem which can be solved on a large scale. Also I have an interest to solve environmental issues. How can I find ideas in that field

Ans: Failing is not bad as far as you have learnt from each failure. in whatever is your area of interest, talk to as many experts and consumers you can.. you will start identifying need gaps. Identify and list these need gaps.. shortlist those that you think you can solve. Then again talk to people on which of the need gaps, people are willing to pay you money to sort out.. and how much. Concurrently, talk to experts on the cost of solving the matter. Wherever you think the cost of solution is lesser than what people are willing to pay, is a good idea to work on prima facie

Relationship
A guy had a crush on me. He started contacting me then confessed that he likes me. . Then gradually i happened to really like him. I started reciprocating my feelings and we were constantly in touch after being vocal on how much we like each other. After few months he started to show low energy then stopped contacting me. When i tried to reach him again he said we can be bestfriends and that I'll always be his crush. Nothing more than that. I was extremely hurt. Suddenly after week's he texted me saying Thankyou as he cleared his university Exam (i helped him out) . What should I do now. Shall I respond or not. And does he want me back or what's going inside him
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
It is very difficult to tell what’s going on in someone’s mind, or how feelings change suddenly; it is unfair but it’s very common. If he has clearly mentioned that he does not want anything romantic with you, it is best to not pursue. I understand that it has hurt you, and maybe somewhere, it has also hurt your ego, but it is best to respect his boundaries. Coming to responding to his message- since he has thanked you for your help, it would be decent to reply; you can do it with a simple “you are welcome.” But I won’t force you to do it; if you think that he doesn’t deserve it, then you can avoid it. But if you are wondering if he wants you back, as an onlooker, I didn’t see any indication of that. Then again, as I mentioned, it is difficult to tell what’s going on in someone’s mind. If you want clarity, you should have an open discussion and ask him about it. That much explanation he owes you.

Hope this helps
