aww Vee, welcome to the pity party on Sunday nite! I'm making very slow progress on my notes that I need to have done before I see patients tom 😛, but it's fun to hang with you chicas. Hahaha I had to work...um but thats what tomorrow is for right? I just cant convince myself to open my work laptop and get anything done. ANother week from sheer hell awaits me bright and early Monday morning.😭
Vee, the interesting thing is that not one of us here, I'd wager to say, would put up with the sort of nonsense that Arnav dishes out. But still in the early epis Khushi was at least his match in terms of sheer cussedness. I think the wrter who wrote the initial character sketch is back because this week after a VERY long time I saw the same only Khushi that was there June-Decemberish. Thank god for that because her crazyness was driving me up a flipping wall. Arnie's character has had shades of crazy but overall its been very consistent.
I'm actually less troubled by the fact that he's terrified of confronting Khushi with what he knows for fear that the ugly confirmation will be more than he can bear. Men can be emotional cowards, I think women are way stronger. My hubby is putty in the hands of a woman who turns on the waterworks - I'm way tougher! I think we're meant to buy into the idea that the heart wants what it wants --- however soul destroying that may be. A pretty concept in drama and fiction, not sure many of us here (self sufficient women with agency) will ever accept that notion for our lives. You are right here men are made of wax they melt so quickly its pretty cute and funny. I have to shed to fake tears and I have mine wrapped around my pinky. But then I guess any guy would be petrified at knowing the girl hes in love with doesnt feel the same about him and feels that about another guy but as an audience its frustrating I guess knowing everything about the story I wanna just shake them hehe. Ah I luurrrveee fiction so much its nerve wrecking on some days right? 🤓
As for the sexual abuse, that's a complex one. Women who are victims are often paralyzed and unable to act. Not sure that that's the line they want to cross with Khushi, who's generally spunky and spirited, but it's hard to insist that she cope when a lot of the evidence suggests otherwise. But she hurt him in the kitchen I dont see why she cant just carry Mace! Just spray the damn creep 😡
