Actually, no matter how many googlys happen or how many turns this story takes... everything seem to be correlating to GG. In GG Amy had the perfect parents, was affluent etc. But she still did what she did when Nick cheated on her.
What could be more surprising than knowing that Ashwin actually did not torture Maya to the extent that Maya has perceived. Sab Maya hai... loved Jen utter that dialogue. What delivery and action to match!!
Look at it in Ayaan case... Maya punished Ayaan for his act. Ayaan did barge into the house, abuse her verbally and scared her. She not just punishes Ayaan with her act but also Arjun for telling their personal matters to Ayaan.
This is Maya's justice... this is her law. Could something like this have happened with Ashwin too?
Cause Ashwin does keep saying that he was not bad and that Maya was bad...
Now that the CVs have pushed Maya totally to the dark...I have my doubts.
No.
Amy DID NOT have the perfect parents.
Her mother had several miscarried or still born babies. All named "hope" as far as I can recall.
The mother was so twisted she used to celebrate each and every dead kid's birthday with Amy telling how perfect they were, all while reprimanding Amy for her imperfections.
To her parent's she was just business. A way to make money.
Imagine the social pressure on Amy to live up to the "amazingness"?
Amy wasn't even affluent.
She worked as a writer who made quizzes for a magazine. She was laid off weeks after Nick. They had money problems.
Her parents too lost their business during recession. Hence she had to give up her trust fund for them.
She gave up all the remaining money she had to Nick to open the bar.
She might have been born with a silver spoon but her life wasn't perfect either.
Please get your facts cleared before speaking
Warm welcome.
The only few similarities is that Maya too has a sick guy trying to woo her with extreme stuff, like Amy had Desi.
Maya's childhood and till she met Arjun, were really really really awful, but that doesn't make Amy's life any good. They both had suffered, though on different levels.
Amy wasn't as insecure as Maya either. Maybe that's because Maya had to deal with way more shit than her.
Maya "loves" Arjun but Amy hates Nick and wants him to be slave to her. They both are controlling, yea.
Amy suffers not from psychopathy but from Borderline personality disorder and narcissim.
Whereas, we see Maya, who is suffering from psychosis, becuase of her delusions regarding Arjun (I feel she's healing and recovering from that because of her now being aware of Arjun's feelings towards her), Obsessive compulsive disorder, Major depressive disorder, psycho motor agitation, and plenty more.
People calling them a psychopath are very very very wrong on so many levels.
Wanna know a psychopath?
Read up Jeffrey Dahmer.
Lazy?
Okay, I'll brief you about him. I'll try to be as less gory as I can be.
One of the nation's most notorious serial killers, Jeffrey Dahmer was born and raised in Bath Township, Ohio, a middle-class suburb of Akron. Much has been made of his childhood tendencies - including cases of cruelty to animals - but to outward appearances, at least, he seemed to be a normal child. As an adult he was always gainfully employed and was perceived as quiet and polite by co-workers. At the time of his arrest he had been working at a chocolate factory in Milwaukee and living alone in a small one-bedroom apartment. Dahmer's home was searched on July 22, 1991, after a young man fled his apartment and flagged down a police car. An investigation revealed that the apartment contained the remains of 11 young men, most of them black, Hispanic, or Asian. The bodies had been dismembered, and Dahmer confessed that he had cooked and eaten some of the remains. Asked why he committed such heinous acts, Dahmer told police that he killed because he was "lonely" and did not want his victims to leave him. He explained that he would meet potential victims in bars, shopping malls, or adult bookstores, and invite them back to his apartment where, in exchange for money or beer, he would photograph them naked. He would then drug the beer and, once the victim was unconscious, strangle and dismember the body. Dahmer's victims ranged in age from 14 to 33. On February 15, 1992, Dahmer was found guilty on 15 murder counts in Wisconsin. He was subsequently convicted of another killing in his Ohio hometown. Charges linking him to other murders were dropped for lack of evidence. He was sent to prison in Wisconsin with 15 mandatory life sentences to serve. The first year of his sentence, Dahmer was isolated from the general prison population for his own protection. In 1994 he was sent to a maximum security facility in Portage and was allowed some contact with the other inmates. He died after a brutal beaten to death on late November 28, 1994, by a fellow inmate who claimed God had instructed him to murder Jeffrey Dahmer. Even after Dahmer's death, legal battles continue over his estate. Several families of his victims sued him and were awarded millions of dollars in restitution. Those families have since been trying to gain control of the contents of Dahmer's apartment, including a 55-gallon vat he used to decompose bodies and the refrigerator where he stored his victims' hearts.
Though yea, If only his father accepted his sexual orientation, nothing would have happened.
(don't start saying I'm justifying him, because I'm NOT, setting that straight.)
