First and foremost I must thank Sareeta for this idea and requesting me to write on this very pertinent topic!!! An honour that she should think I could do justice to this…At the risk of putting a most unromantic spin to the concept of mating, I proceed tentatively herewith

Socio-historically men are genetically predisposed to sowing their seeds far and wide to aid survival of their species. This is not exclusive to just humans, but all flora and fauna. Seeds are meant to be dispersed and the male will always look for the maximum number of mates to achieve this difficult task of furthering their type. And in that vein, men are natural born flirts… they are gifted with the roving eye to select the best possible option available to them to produce an offspring that will be strong and capable of carrying the species forward. It is, therefore no wonder that the male will always have several mates while the female will always look for the best and the strongest to mate with her.

We women always run a mile when we encounter 'flirts', forgetting that they are possibly the most reliable of men. Not only do they acknowledge that they are in fact flirts and that the opposite sex allures them a great deal, they wear their hearts on their sleeves and are open with their feelings too. Those that deny their natural propensity to look and search are guilty of the greatest perjury to nature. These are the men who swear unflinching solidarity and fidelity but lose no opportunity to 'check out' the variety that nature has strewn around them.

The flirts, who are permanently at the receiving end of condemnation from us, are as honest as they can be. These are the men who will openly try their luck at every given prospect and make no excuse about it. These are the guys who will not pretend to offer you anything more than they want to and will never lead you down a path they do not want to share with you. These are the guys who, when they have decided to conform to the social restriction of monogamy, are most faithful and sincere, because their process of selection has been stringent and straightforward.

The Armaans of the real world fall hard when they do fall. They will never use the word love loosely and are extremely discriminatory when it comes to who they decide to spend the rest of their lives with. And once they have decided, nothing can move them from their stance. And why should anything or anybody affect their choice? They've run their own tests and trust their judgment above all else. They know they have hit the nail on the head when they zero in on the one perfect woman for them, so don't expect them ever to deflect. They are blissfully oblivious to any duplicity or deception since they rarely let their 'attempts' dream an impossible fantasy.

There are genuine exceptions to this, ones that we women can identify with amazing deftness, but in general the next time you lucky gals have the proverbial flirt shower you with his love and attention, don't let it scare you away…he has tried and tested and is there with you to stay, so grab on and don't let go!!!

👏 👏 wonderful post dear...
loved it..
also in some article i read about karan singh saying"i have no qualms in admitting that i am a flirt"...and i do respect the man for that.. 😃 😃
u know when a guy is open about his intentions(just flirt or commitment) and does not wrap his real intentions under other things...u cant help but respect him for the power of his character... 😊

Wow what fans Armaan has in this forum.... 😳

I agree and disagree Aarti. 😊

It is true that flamboyant, extrovert and flirtatious men are not bad. They are what they are and are not hiding their true nature behind sophistication, dignity, etc. 😉
However, since this relates to Karan/Armaan...I will stick with this character.

Men can flirt, and in your words such men have tested and tried and when they zero down on one woman, it is for life. If that is the case, there is no problem at all. I was talking to Anu about this!

But here, K/A, K has a steady girl friend (he tested and tried) but the way he flirts on sets (see him eyeing or touching Sapna, eyeing Dr. K in some scenes, it is not professional nor curiosity, he does it to gain attention)...what went wrong. Is his gf not good enough or he is still testing and trying? Listening to K and gf, it seems both of them want to believe that are ok together...no offence intended.

As for A also, the same holds true. He zeroed down on R and really loves her. R is scared of his overt nature sometimes, although she developed deep feelings for him. He does flirt innocently but the dialogues that DMG makes him tell are so absurd.
If he zeroed down on R, he better have the patience and guts to make it a reality. Once he says, "I will wait all my life for you." At another time, he is says, "God is giving a sign that we don't belong."
For me, like the flirtatious nature, his feelings are swaying too...

A long reply Aarti. Sorry 😕

And this reply has nothing to do with K/A's life; just used him as an example to reply to your post! I love A in DMG and I love AR to death.

But, for me, Atul and Dr. Shubhankar are as good human beings, good males, good lovers/husbands, may be better than A at times. They may not be as handsome or flirtatious like A. 😉

I agree with you Varti in some aspects, as in yes most men who are proverbial flirts truly accept their flirtacious nature, and are truly honest with themselves and with others. I mean they know what are their flaws and accept it ...Plus life with a flirt is kind of fun in a way, u know with a little bit of jealousy kicking in from the other partner but knowing that at the end of the day, he truly loves you.

Listening to K and gf, it seems both of them want to believe that are ok together...no offence intended. i have never denied that flirts stop what comes to them naturally, but just that it never ever will take a serious turn once they have found their ideal mate!! well validated by shraddha's sense of security and karan's honesty about the flirting itself! and it is just conjecture based on rumours as far as touching and eyeing is concerned. i, for one don't put too much into these stories that are all about prying into someone's personal life and sensationalising stardom. just a paparazzi trick!!

As for A also, the same holds true. He zeroed down on R and really loves her. R is scared of his overt nature sometimes, although she developed deep feelings for him. He does flirt innocently but the dialogues that DMG makes him tell are so absurd.
If he zeroed down on R, he better have the patience and guts to make it a reality. Once he says, "I will wait all my life for you." At another time, he is says, "God is giving a sign that we don't belong." aaah human tendency to be sure and disheartened at the same time. he never once says he doesn't love her anymore. he just doubts fate for the cruel games it is playing in his love life!!! and a little harmless flirting never hurt anyone, as long as you are honest about it!!


For me, like the flirtatious nature, his feelings are swaying too... not at all...in fact he's steady as a rpck with his feelings!! vehemently disagree there!!

A long reply Aarti. Sorry 😕

They may not be as handsome or flirtatious like A. 😉 no denying the appeal of the others, but after tonight's episode i rest my case, as atul too can be affected by the wile charms of another when he is sure he loves anjali...

cant really add much here...can only say every1 indulges in this once in a while..some do it more..some less..some do it in style some do it quitely..some with words..others with eyes...smiling at a stranger ,gazing into some1's eyes just for that safe lil minute...anything that makes the heart flutter...as long as its not over stepping boundaries it is what makes us human and its all but very natural!

And now DD,i know this is not post for what follows..but ghuma firake will try to bring it back to the topic...for now i hv to get this out of me...

whats with Riddhima (wouldnt say flirting)hugging Atul every now and then.She is on a hugging spree man.Thats not really my objection actually the "Excuse me Armaan" bit is!
The moment between them in the lib was magical.Ridz for once didnt goof up.Her expressions were as good as A.But the excuse me broke the spell for me 🤢
I mean she plays with him every morn,has slept on his shoulders on more than one occasion,flirts with him most of the times,falls in his arms all the time,salsa's with him,dandiya's with him,falls more and more in love with him everyday...to yeh 'bakwaas sa' excuse me kaha se aaya...that 2 twice!

that just proves that Ridz is as much as flirt as Armaan is...well not really...but hai to thodi si 😊

Good analysis to my reply vaarti...hope you did not take it in a wrong way.
I really loved it. Thank you.
And I was referring to all those who were saying A's flirting was ok.
Basically, my concept of love is different I guess. I like one-woman men.

I like love stories like King Khan's...not that everyone's will be the same. I fell in love with him when i read about it. how gauri ran away from him without giving address but khan did not think if god's decision is different but hunted her down and married her.
And last year i think when i saw gauri khan say to Karan johar that she will not tolerate any other interest or affair from Shahrukh; she will just leave him and find another man for herself, i thought wow....what a woman - full of self-respect and strong character. I admired her from then.

No wonder their marriage, family, and khan's career is as fresh, rocking, and lively even now.

Not that K is bad or anything. But I do not personally like guys who are flirts (if they accept it personally or not,)after they are serious about someone in life.
And I do not like women who have to justify what their men do under the label of "understanding". I admire women like Gauri Khan.

And I agree, little flirting is no harm....but if the flirting hurts another's life, either by waking some unwanted emotions or dislike, then that is bad....
And definitely, it may be more of papparzi than any truth in all this...and here I am yapping away as if my life depended on it 😆 😆 😆. I could care less how A or even King Khan lead their lives.

And yeah, now I have to eat my own words...if they showed Atul flirting. 😕

This is my personal opinion Aarti and I know no one agrees with me in this forum on this issue! 😉 I just wanted to provide another view point that's all. 😊
