Dil ka rishta - It is only love and the hearts knows each other and responds equally to balance. If A+K had only Dil ka rishta, they would have understood all the feelings, even without seeing, and would have tried to sort out the matter and move on. Sometimes, out of sight may become out of mind.
Dard ka rishta - This is something nobody can forget. What stays in your mind for a long time? It is the pain of actions and words. How long? It is much much longer and the feeling of pain prolongs it further. So, in this case, they are hurting each other so much and are causing pain to the other and along side falls prey to the pain equally. The wound does not heal, bcos, you are hit on the same wound again. When the love causes the pain, it hurts even more, with more depth. It is said "you may forget the slap on your cheek, but the words and insulting and betrayal actions echoes several times and re-ecoes forever" which makes it whole life also a small period to forget easily.
If you have an argument with a stranger, over time you forget it. But if your loved ones cause you the pain, that is immense and unforgetful.
That is why she said, Dil ka rishta bhool bhi sakte hain, leking Dard ka rishta, ek janam bhi kam lag jaayegi bhool ne ke liye (something like that).
