"No man wanted to fall short of their wife's expectations"- Now if only I could get my husband to agree…Geet is really lucky to have found Maan who is so loving and willing to please his wife. My real world experience has been very different..LOL!
About the powerplays in marriage- I think you have captured it beautifully. While to Maan it is unimaginable that Geet would exploit him so using reverse psychology and such like- however, any wife worth her salt knows that if you want to your husband to fall in line- you need to plan, plot and attack. In plainspeak it is sort of a life long war- no matter what the mushies feed you…LOL! After a point it all comes naturally, without you even realizing what you are doing…
We have seen them so close in the updates since they got married- I am as worried as Maan and Geet on how they are going to deal with the separation- no matter how short lived. Love and Longing in SF and NY!! (have I just given you titles for 2 updates)
Relationships, families are so complicated and so fragile- as Maan demonstrated when talking about his past with his sister- I am sure it was not easy- and you did capture his angst and Geet's remorse on making him go through a painful chapter from his past very beautifully.
Loved the update, Hasini! Will be waiting to see what Maan has planned for both of them!
