Hello Dreamy😊
Great, thought-provoking topic👏👏
Yoohoo........I am the first to reply😃😃
OK, now to the serious business of commenting:
Well, I would like it to be unconditional love........certainly. But, and there always is a but, Avi's reaction to BJ's theatrics on his wedding night comes to mind. He made that senseless vow and then refused to even look at Arpi. Even if it was for a certain time only, he did forget his love, his responsibilities and duties as a husband and furthermore, in drunken rage physically hurt Arpi. I know, I know...many would say that these were extraordinary circumstances and he was under extreme mental stress....but.
Having said that, I want to say that the underlying love was not really affected, it was the outward manifestation of it. Plus, I guess his mindset would be that being his wife, Arpi should understand the importance of the issue at hand and not complain.
OK, now that I have thought it aloud😳, I would say that yes, their love is unconditional. With Arpi, there never was a doubt........she has stuck by him through thick and thin....even from the time she was not married to him.
Let me back up some..........when we say love, do we mean the emotion, the attachment, the soul connection or are we talking of the manifestation of love? That is to say: being lovey-dovey, holding hands, (and more😳), smiling, generally being happy around one another: absence of annoyance or anger. Obviously, the latter cannot be the case all the time. There will be occassions when they will be angry with one another, sulk, pout,scream, shout etc. But as far as the underlying emotion is concerned, it will always be unconditional, i.e. to say, no matter the provocation, they will always love one another, though they may be angry with another, disagree, argue etc. Case in point, Arpi didn't want Avi to go about the revenge business, so she tried to change his mind....she didn't just withdraw and say that his man doesn't seem to be the Devta I fell in love with, so I quit. This was pretty serious divergence of opinion and not only that, he was about to murder a man.
Hope people you are able to make sense of my ramblings.😊
Interested to read what you and others have to say.😃
