Your statements neither justify or disprove my post and there are many points in your post that are valid but have nothing to do with my point. I'm merely expanding the parts in red.
I know she's not pretending. My query was why is it justifiable for Ridz to not give Sid an honest answer about her feelings for Armaan on the grounds of "social norms" especially when many here want her to break social norms to go back with Armaan?
And you completely missed my sarcasm about sister stella. See sister stella represents the typical problems in a gossip-powered society. Say she is "social norm" if Sid were like her then telling him about her honest feelings would see 1/2 the world finding out and she would be ridiculed and be labelled many unpleasant things. But Sid isn't like that hence he is "no sister stella" i.e. he would obviously keep personal conversations about the two of them to himself so why do "social norms" apply here, in a private setting between two people?
And although my post had nothing to do with her working on her marriage I'll answer that too. If she wants to work on her marriage that's great but instead of telling Naina, Armaan, and everybody else maybe she should tell the other person invloved in the marriage. By that I mean Sid. I'm sure like Ridz and Armaan he values marriage too but I don't think he's the kind of guy who wants to be in one where he's stuck feeling he isn't capable of making his wife happy. You know why he'd feel like that? Because every time he has tried to do something nice for her it has always back-fired pre and post marriage. Hypothermia, the patient Tamanna, MARRYING her, giving her the opportunity to choose her life-partner and not putting pressures on her. She has resented him for EVERYTHING it's enough to make even the person with an ego the size of Mt Everest feel small!
Yes I have watched DMG from August 2007 and she wasn't that crazy about Armaan to begin with but she did fall for him - HARD. I've not denied that. If you carefully read my post and the one I'm replying to you will notice the part about SR's feelings is in regards to sjain's confusion that people - SR fans in particular seem to have contrasting views - some say Ridz loves him and others say not yet. I was just clarifying where I believe most SR fans stood on the matter. So in the future it would be greatly appreciated if time was given to understanding the context of my posts and replying to related material cos it kinda throws people off when they get responses that have minimal relations to their original perspective. Is there anything else that I need to clear up? If not, cheers!
