Zara, shoulda run when you had the chance

So the way Rishi is behaving toward Zara is becoming increasingly pathetic. I don't see how Zara can have any respect left for a man who slaps her, accuses her of the worst things, insults her, AND lets his 8 yr old treat her like a puppet.

I have to agree with you here. I don't blame Rishi or Zara for the current circumstances but the truth is that they are both suffering. For Rishi, leaving is not a choice. He has declared that he will support Indira/LW as long as she is unwell (now if that is the right decision or not is up to interpretation and honestly I don't think there is a right or wrong here). But yes, Zara does have a choice. I don't think she owes Rishi or LW anything and it is her right to walk away from all this. I wouldn't blame her if she did. It would have been nice if she had been secure enough in her relationship with Rishi to actually stay and support him thru this but the circumstances have not allowed that secure relationship to develop yet. So if she is not comfortable with Rishi taking care of LW and is going to be constantly miserable in SN because of this, I think she has every right to walk away and she should. Zara's insecurities and her behavior because of them are just making things more complicated.
