Well! I don't think that anyone is perfect. But then the character at least has to be a bit more responsible. Isnt' it? We all possess some flaws and that's the same with the character. But, I am emphasizing 'some' flaws. I think this ('some') doesn't apply to the character I am talking about.
Her character seems to be butchered not because she is not perfect and not reacting the way I want her to but because she is not reacting the way which is at least a bit right. I don't say that the makers have to agree with mine point of view but at least they can show some more sense of responsibility in her character. (this is the maximum thing now I can expect from them!)
Again, this is my Point Of View. Yours is different. And I respect it whole-heartedly.

No offence intended to anyone.

absolutely right sanju......no one is perfect, we r definitely not so unreasonable as to demand that................but there is a limit to being childish, alimit to being egoist, and a limit to being irresponsible!

we know that MSK is an egoist....see how he left his ego totally to fight for his love....he gains my respect even more................................

Nothing is left to say dids.
You banged it.

@Sanjana/Ria: I may call it self respect and you are calling it ego..fair enough we are all looking at her behavior from our biases. There is no point in debating that coz I doubt we will see eye to eye on that- so lets just agree to disagree there😆

But so what if she has an ego- is that a fatal flaw? If Maan can have an ego- why cant she? We are all forgiving of his flaws- so why not hers? Is the onus of a relationship running smoothly to always lie on the female's shoulders? Can she not have an off day- where she left the "main" overpower the "hum"?

Exactly.
That's why I said that the makers have actually raised Maan even more in the eyes of the viewers by showing all this. As a character, he has gained more respect from me. I admire him extensively for that.⭐️

Ria, she has fought with him a number of times, been angry with him, nagged him- tried all wifely tools to get him to see her viewpoint. Do you remember the last time when Maan was angry- and says it would have been better that she had let him die rather than save him by being obligated to Dev- she did all the things you wanted her to do. Even before that- she has always relented- but you also have to realize that everyone has a limit- maybe this was the final straw that broke the camel's back...she has gone through multiple shocks in the last few weeks and may be this was the last thing that led to a complete breakdown- even if you look at her behaviour after she walked out of Maan's house- it is not anger- she looks dazed, confused and most of all in shock- how could this happen.

Lets give her some time before we jump to conclusions about her behaviour- because we still dont know what is her exact frame of mind.

That's not a suitable statement to agree. I am sorry but it is actually not!
Even if Maan had ego he has left it long back. If he had ego, he could never forgive Geet so easily for what she did (the media fiasco). If he had ego, then he could never ride a bicycle to find her. If he had ego then he would never decide to become a driver.
But, Geet is showing her ego more than she needs to.
Anyways, I am fed up with this debate now.
Let it be as it is.
Thanks a lot!😊

Sanjana- He has an ego
1) He dragged her out of office- thats why she blew up infront of the media...
2) He catalysed her leaving the house- thats why now he has to ride cycles to find her 😆..If no ego- then no blow-up- no Geet leaving house- methinks,....so it started there!
3) Was it not his ego that was hurt that led to the slap being administered?
4) Is it not his ego- which refused to take No for an answer that led to him ruthlessly pursuing her?

So I may respect everything you have had to say- but that Maan is selfless- I do not agree to that statement one bit. He is definitely too good to be true- but ego and anger are his Achilles heel.

thats exactly what i hv been trying to say.yes,maan has an ego-but see,he cares least about it now ,doesn't he? he wants his love to win. its not wrong to hv an ego, but yes, as a matured individual, one should be responsible enough to understand when to give importance to the ego and when not! keeping quiet in front of teji and beeji when they insulted maan-that was geet's silent acceptance of all their accusations, her silence when they told her never to go back to her in laws -her silence at that moment conveyed that she was willing to give up on her marriage, willing to walk out on maan, i am not saying she was doing that without any pain,of course not,she was dying inside-but still,her ego got the better of her...................in such a case,ego does become a fatal flaw!

1) Why did he drag her out of the office? Wasn't that because of her only?
2) I don't think Maan had intentions of making Geet leave the house. But, again it was Geet's self-respect (as you call it)or ego (as I call it) which made her leave the place.
3) If you forgive Geet for so many flaws why not Maan for that one. By the way, again I think the way Geet had behaved that day in the office (the media fiasco), was indirectly behind that behavior of Maan.
4) No, I don't think so. It was not his ego. It was his dilemma, his confusion and moreover, his love.

And lastly, I didn't say Maan is selfless. Never! But he isn't selfish either as you stated in your first post on this topic.

No offence intended to anyone.
