While I can agree on the unrealism part, I would not go as far as calling Anuj flaky and fickle.
He has liked a woman for a long time but has made (failed) attempts to date other women whom he couldn't like as much. Even with Anupamaa, he has respected her consent and not constantly made attempts to woo her. This stuff is realistic as well as respectable.
But the point to prove which which Anuj has entered the show, is something I have a problem with. It has ended up proving a point for the (regressive) viewers, that a woman needs to always be in atleast one romantic relationship or dependent on someone. Whatever wrong with Anupamaa was fixed, it was by Anuj's efforts or money and was mostly never her own doing.
Additionally, I find Anuj to have zero sense of self-respect like Anupamaa does. Just as insults towards HasLee are triggers for Anupamaa, Anuj's triggers are insults towards GK and Anupamaa, but rarely towards himself.
Why is self-deprecation seen as a virtue is beyond my comprehension!!
