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.
