New FF: New York times with Maan and Geet - Page 89

You know what parts I most look forward to your chapter are?

Your Titles...and then the way you utilize it in between the scenes. I some how get the sense that I will encounter that now and I do, it has been for the past. But today the pattern seems to break...not that I'm complaining of...you do sure know what on earth you are writing.

Part 42 - Only a heartbeat away'.

I loved the way Geet analyzed her last year. She learned a lot, she learned that she has to go places, do things, pave a way out for herself to reach her destination. But what is her destination? And why is she comparing herself with Maan? Why does she feel that Maan overshadow's her in every possible way?

That is just Maan, he comes from a different place, a different lifestyle and that is why he has something different to offer. Geet comes from a different place herself and she has something else to offer to Maan. Is Geet able to see herself through Maan's eyes? Does she know how she makes Maan feel? As per Maan, Geet makes him feel wanted, loved, adored, cherished'etc.

The morning was powered up already, more than what the caffeine could do to me. I like how they both can feel each other's presence. Loved Maan's mono in this line.

The hearts are connected. ❤️❤️

Meera is so funny ' Matlab, baki ke din, kuch hota hain'aur sirf kal ko juch nahin hua tha. Right'Lolz🤣

Geet wanting to overcome her fear of heights..is that the only reason she climbed the emergency stairs or was there a different motive?

"A guide to Geet Handa'. I did not understand how could he take control of my situations so well. It seemed like he had mastered the guide to handling me and my troublesome situations.

Well, that was the affect Maan had on Geet! She felt safe, secure, sheltered, protected with him, around him, beside him. Somewhere deep inside her mind and heart, she trusted him'..yet, she could not accept the reality of this trust that she had for him. 'it was still a few arms away .😭

Geet's mono ' He was careful about any physical contact. All of a sudden he was measuring his contact with me? I did not understand why it had changed. I wanted it that way as well. I could not handle any closeness with him either. 'the mind and the heart are in a conflict. Her heart desires one thing and yet at the same time is in opposition. She wants Maan to act a certain way and when he does, she questions his actions.

Maan has to measure each and every step of his around Geet, just so that Geet does not feel uncomfortable'and Maan being insecure and vulnerable in personal relationships has no other choice. Because in his thoughts he thinks that if he makes a mistake or if he does something that Geet does not like or want, he might end up losing her forever.

Changing yourself for someone else only because you want the relationship to proceed and continue on is not right. Is Geet aware of how her thoughts and actions are affecting Maan? Is she aware that he is not being himself for her sake? Yes, he loves her and wants to do everything for her and in fact he is doing everything for her, but is that right?

I believe in compromise, mutual understandings, and sacrifices but to what extent?

I feel for Maan here'..'Yes I was glad that she knew my true intentions, but now I had to stay away for her as well?'.

I am not happy with the way Geet has handled her decision about moving to San Frisco. I am not able to understand her personality here and am not able to get inside her thoughts'(I would love to though)

I know it is related to her past and self identity, finding her true self, inner self, being grounded, making it out in the world alone and by herself'..BUT'''''..there is this big BUT'that I am not able to digest'.

She wants to have time by herself to figure out her life, alone'but why SF?

Geet's mono ' I was not running away from people, I was only running away from him. I could not take it anymore, to have him aroudna nd not name what I have for him. How is this fair to him? First of all, Maan is walking on eggshells here'.he is holding this glass ball in his hand every time he is around Geet and is protecting it so it does not break and crash him life and his dreams. He is so considerate about Geet and her feelings and secondly he is changing himself for her'.and Geet knows this'.and yet'.she wants to run away'.

What about how Maan feels here'how will this impact him? Does she not realize this or care about this'..to answer my own question ' yes she does care about him'but what will it take for her to admit her feelings to him a tragedy? A misfortune?

I can argue my own questioning in the above paragraph by saying that Geet never asked Maan to walk on egg shells or change for her and that was Maan's own choice'but what about their hearts that feel connected to each other. I mean if both of them feel for each other and if one is sacrificing and is being very considerate for the other, den should the other person not reciprocate?

Yes, I agree 'everyone was disturbed by her decision'I am in the same boat too.

Geet's mono ' I just want to spend some time by myself and see how life treats me!!!

Is life not about balancing'.what one is lacking the other can fulfill and vice versa.

Is Maan supposed to wait for her until she figures out her life? What she wants in her life?

Geet's mono ' I wanted him to understand me more than anything that moment!!!

Yet again, Maan has to understand Geet. Why is it that Maan needs to understand her'he is already understanding her ..and is doing so much'.he is going through a roller coaster ride just for her'.and yet again'he needs to go through more?

Geet was asking his permission'.because she knew somewhere in her heart'that she mite not be taking a right step at this moment'her fear and her insecurities have taken over her and all she can do at this moment is cope by going far away from him'.but what are the repercussions of this decision. Will their friendship stay the same as before?????

Because sometimes in life'once you take a step forward'it is hard to walk back to the last step because things might not be the same anymore in life'.

Geet's last line ' I knew I was doing this at the cost of whatever I was sharing with him'so she was willing to take a risk'she was willing to lose him'if that ever happened!!

I wonder...during these times about unconditional love/care and selfish love/care.

Hasini, forgive me'.if I have said something'that was not right.
