Now coming to the thoughts to ponder this week.. I present to you the following questions..

Do you believe that in a relationship, one should always remain truthful to one's partner and tell him/her everything that goes on in life? Yes, I do. But I also think that before anything happens both the partners should sit down and discuss the definition of "everything" so misunderstandings don't occur. Consider this.. Some people may have a past and while they choose to not talk about their past relationships and do not let it impact their current situation, what if their partner comes to know about it and takes it the wrong way? What if the issue of mistrust and withholding info. comes to bite them? That's the risk you took up on yourself when you decided to hide the relationship or incident. Should one come clean about everything before starting a relationship or are there somethings that are better left unsaid? What is the true foundation of any relationship? I think it is understanding. If something does go wrong, each partner should understand and process to let their better half explain their POV on who, what, where, when, and why the situation took place or why they hid the relation/situation.

Considering the thought above, do you think Kasturi should have continued to lie about her whereabouts these days? She cant see Robbie getting hurt but don't you think she is already hurting Robbie by not telling him the truth? The first time she lied - okay, the second time - again?, third time - she should have said the truth. She should realize the effect her lies on him the first time and shouldn't have lied again. Isn't it better to face the truth now than to repent and do things that will cost you your relationship eventually? Yes becaues all the lies will build up and kill Robbie's faith in Kasturi leading him to belive him mother 🤢

Ronak is the savor of Kasturi since day 1. Do you think there is a possibility of a Ronak- Kasturi hook-up? After Robbie dumps Kasturi, yes. But I don't think Ronak will try and butt in RK relationship. I detest the idea personally, have seen it numerous times before.. But a serial must go on.. Do u think that Robbie will misunderstand Kasturi and will step away? Its bound to happen. Would Devika succeed in her viscious and evil plans? 😡 Eventually, yes. More so, does Ronak like Kasturi as more than a friend? 😕 No, not yet anyway. But if they do get together it will be Ronak getting together with Kasturi to save her izzat, as a friend though.

While people may seem divided over the question of hiding some secrets from their significant others at times or not, Kasturi hit the nail when she said that "for a relationship to succeed, you need to have trust and understanding". Then Kasturi needs to trust, understand, and then help Robbie with the situation. Why is he the only one who should trust her? Her mom further stamped this thought by emphasizing over having a truthful relationship that is honest and is full of trust... Do you think that Robbie got jealous for that little moment when he saw Ronak-Kasturi together? Yesh, but I think because she lied to him more than seeing them together. Do you think that his outburst was simply a reaction towards the lies these two have been feeding him or was there a hidden fear of losing Kasturi deep down inside? 😊 I think its both, because somewhere it is necessary for partners to be [little] possessive about each other. Also, that little fear deep down should be there because if a person/thing is really special that feeling is always going to be there.

Predict what next Monady's episode will bring along for us.. What did Robbie see that shocks the living daylights out of him? 😳

Please post your favorite dialogue and scene of the week in a couple of lines here. 😊😊 I liked the Mandir scene although I think Robbie should have gone in with Kasturi.




The format of this post is really nice Sana ji with the surprise links and everything very well done! 👏 Your questions were really interesting as well. Hopefully, the answers did justice to them. 😛

Love,
Smarty

Wonderful questions to ponder Sana di. Wish i had come here sooner. Newayz 'der aaye durust aaye...lolz'😉


Do you believe that in a relationship, one should always remain truthful to one's partner and tell him/her everything that goes on in life? Consider this.. Some people may have a past and while they choose to not talk about their past relationships and do not let it impact their current situation, what if their partner comes to know about it and takes it the wrong way? What if the issue of mistrust and withholding info. comes to bite them? Should one come clean about everything before starting a relationship or are there somethings that are better left unsaid? What is the true foundation of any relationship?
The foundation of a relationship is definitely trust. I have seen loveless relationships that begin with trust and grow into a bond stronger than those based on love. So my humble opinion is to build trust in any relationship and never to let that trust down. However, starting a relationship with bold and ugly truths can hurt more than do good. There is a right time to come clean with someone that you want to spend your life with. The truth should be told before making the commitment to spend the life together because your partner should be able to accept you with your past and it should not seem that you purposely hid something important from that person. So the time to tell ugly truths is when you realize that you are getting close to a person...and once its told you'll find out if your relationship was 'meant to be' or not. ok i am babbling so i'll stop. Sorry for the long answer.


Considering the thought above, do you think Kasturi should have continued to lie about her whereabouts these days? She cant see Robbie getting hurt but don't you think she is already hurting Robbie by not telling him the truth? Isn't it better to face the truth now than to repent and do things that will cost you your relationship eventually?
I can understand that Kasturi has promised not to say anything and i don't like breaking promises even if it does harm to me. But if i were her i would have been smart enuf not to promise such a silly thing because divya's situation is something that cannot remain hidden. So eventually ppl will find out and what Kasturi is doing right now is digging her own grave. And it is not right to hide such a thing as once Divya's family finds out they can actually do something to help her. Is it wrong to lie to Robbie...umm...da...Robbie is not a baby whose feelings need to be protected. He has the right to know about Divya and he has so much trust on Kasturi that she will never lie. So ya shes doing wrong by him.

Ronak is the savor of Kasturi since day 1. Do you think there is a possibility of a Ronak- Kasturi hook-up? I detest the idea personally, have seen it numerous times before.. But a serial must go on.. Do u think that Robbie will misunderstand Kasturi and will step away? Would Devika succeed in her viscious and evil plans? 😡 More so, does Ronak like Kasturi as more than a friend? 😕
Ya i do see that possiblity in the future. I think Ronak already has some feelings for Kasturi but is just not owning up to it cause he knows about RK.
While people may seem divided over the question of hiding some secrets from their significant others at times or not, Kasturi hit the nail when she said that "for a relationship to succeed, you need to have trust and understanding".

I don't think he was jealous when he saw Ronak and Kasturi at the police station. He was more hurt that both of them lied to him. But he does have that fear of loosing Kasturi.

hehe...i am lil late for predictions.
Please post your favorite dialogue and scene of the week in a couple of lines here. 😊😊

my fav dialouge was: Kasturi's about trust & love "Koi bhi rishta pyar se panapta zaroor hai lekin usse banaye rakhne ke liye zarrorat hoti hai vishwas ki aur aapsi samajh ki" wise words.👏

Do you believe that in a relationship, one should always remain truthful to one's partner and tell him/her everything that goes on in life? Consider this.. Some people may have a past and while they choose to not talk about their past relationships and do not let it impact their current situation, what if their partner comes to know about it and takes it the wrong way? What if the issue of mistrust and withholding info. comes to bite them? Should one come clean about everything before starting a relationship or are there somethings that are better left unsaid? What is the true foundation of any relationship?

Listening to My Mitwa and contemplationg in the subway, here's my 15 page thesis on this matter...I'm joking, it's not that long…I think…well, I hope….*sighs* 👍🏼

First of all, every relationship is vastly different...what works for one relationship doesn't necessarily work for another. That said, I'm a firm believer that you need trust, understanding and honesty from both partners in order to maintain the relationship. You can't rely on just love, because you can love a person very much but do you trust and understand each other? I remember someone saying to me that love is the easy part; it's the 'everything else' that requires work and patience.

Regarding one's past, we all have a past and most of us are defined by that. We're humans who will make mistakes and most of us learn from those and grow as a person with some self-actualization. If someone comes clean about their past to their partner, hopefully, the partner understands that what happened years ago isn't a reflection of who they are now. And, if they can't understand that and are rather judgemental, then maybe they're not the person for you.

Ultimately, I think it's better to lay all the cards on the table when the time is right rather than hiding it for prolong period of time.

Considering the thought above, do you think Kasturi should have continued to lie about her whereabouts these days? She cant see Robbie getting hurt but don't you think she is already hurting Robbie by not telling him the truth? Isn't it better to face the truth now than to repent and do things that will cost you your relationship eventually?

Dude, I just want Raunak, Kasturi and Divya to open their mouths and get everything out in the open. ASAP! Because the longer this matter is unresolved, the fall-out will be much bigger. In that one scene when Kasturi asks Raunak that in order to keep one lie, we just told another…well, the cycle will keep repeating until someone tells the truth. I get that they want to protect Divya but the two people that Robbie trusts the most are lying to him and it's not a small matter, it's his freaking sister. If this keeps up, Robbie is not going to trust anyone by the end of the saga.

When you're not embroiled in the situation, it's quite easy to say that it's better to face the truth now and deal with the consequences. But I think no matter what, face the truth sooner and while the consequences may get severe, at least the lie doesn't dictate your entire life.

Ronak is the savor of Kasturi since day 1. Do you think there is a possibility of a Ronak- Kasturi hook-up? I detest the idea personally, have seen it numerous times before.. But a serial must go on.. Do u think that Robbie will misunderstand Kasturi and will step away? Would Devika succeed in her viscious and evil plans? More so, does Ronak like Kasturi as more than a friend?

Possibility of Raunak/Kasturi…umm…it is Ekta's serial after all so there's always definite possibility even if now it seems impossible. 🤔 But I will cry though...

At the moment, I think Raunak thinks of Kasturi as a friend and he seems to be happy that she's in Robbie's life and is genuinely happy for them. He's protective of Kasturi because she's probably the most unsuitable girl for Robbie because their lives are quite different. Unlike the other girls in his past, she's doesn't see Robbie, the rockstar but Robbie, the person. She's in this element that's foreign to her and he doesn't want her hurt so he's seems to be the guiding figure to both in this maze of feelings, love and family.

Robbie, at times, is a type of person who does and then, thinks later. The poor boy feels everything and he's in love for the first time and doesn't understand every emotion he's feeling. He's probably scared that one person can have so much control in your life and giving them the power to break you is unreal. With that said, I'm hoping that Robbie continues to have faith in Kasturi despite the lie and even if he finds out, I hope he understands her reasons.

While people may seem divided over the question of hiding some secrets from their significant others at times or not, Kasturi hit the nail when she said that "for a relationship to succeed, you need to have trust and understanding". Her mom further stamped this thought by emphasizing over having a truthful relationship that is honest and is full of trust... Do you think that Robbie got jealous for that little moment when he saw Ronak-Kasturi together? Do you think that his outburst was simply a reaction towards the lies these two have been feeding him or was there a hidden fear of losing Kasturi deep down inside?

Here's the thing, he knows that she lied to him and can't understand why, and then the boy finds out about the jail mishap where both Kasturi/Raunak are together. Naturally, he's hurt because he can't understand what's happening and why Kasturi is letting Raunak in and shutting him out.

When you are lying to your partner and they know it…it's hard to reason when you see that they are letting someone else in and keeping you shut out. It's frustrating so naturally, the fear of losing that person comes into play because you want so desperately to understand what's happening…so his reactions are all over the place.

But like Kasturi said, for a relationship to be preserve, you need to understand, trust and have faith in that person.

Predict what next Monady's episode will bring along for us.. What did Robbie see that shocks the living daylights out of him?

Okay, I'm not predicting anything because when I start, unpleasant scenarios pop into my head and I like my sanity.😉 All I know is that next week, the DAMN secret should be out because I rather deal with the fall-out of the saga than months of this secret being hidden and plus, all of my shoes won't be ruined with all flinging I will do towards my tv screen.

Please post your favorite dialogue and scene of the week in a couple of lines here.

I wish I could give the Hindi words but I'm going with the English translation. Kasturi's for a relationship to survive, you need to trust and understand each other. While Robbie's I give you the power to break me…(the way he looks at her…FABULOUS!😳)

Whew...I'm all done now. Hopefully, it made sense of sorts and excellent discussion. Loved reading everyone's thoughts on the subject. 👏

Well is lying to them will save someelse's honor, or will make the person happy, it's okay i guess..There are too many 'true foundations..Trust, love, loyalty etc..
Considering the thought above, do you think Kasturi should have continued to lie about her whereabouts these days? She cant see Robbie getting hurt but don't you think she is already hurting Robbie by not telling him the truth? Isn't it better to face the truth now than to repent and do things that will cost you your relationship eventually?
It dosen't make much of a difference, because it will hurt him either way..so she should tell him the truth so she will stop dieing inside & Rob won't misunderstand her..

Ronak is the savor of Kasturi since day 1. Do you think there is a possibility of a Ronak- Kasturi hook-up? I detest the idea personally, have seen it numerous times before.. But a serial must go on.. Do u think that Robbie will misunderstand Kasturi and will step away? Would Devika succeed in her viscious and evil plans? 😡 More so, does Ronak like Kasturi as more than a friend? 😕
I think he already does like her, but since he's BFF's with Rob, he's the one who back away..

While people may seem divided over the question of hiding some secrets from their significant others at times or not, Kasturi hit the nail when she said that "for a relationship to succeed, you need to have trust and understanding".

Well, who doesn't get jealous?..but I think he was a bit of both

Predict what next Monady's episode will bring along for us.. What did Robbie see that shocks the living daylights out of him? 😳
Kasturi will tell Robbie to come, Rob will say yes, but Devika will stop him & thanks to our lovely phone signals in India, he won't be ablt to call her & she & the family will think Rob dosen't really love Kasturi
Please post your favorite dialogue and scene of the week in a couple of lines here. 😊😊
Scene: The mandir scene!
Dialogue: ..I can't remember those!..I'm horrible with memory-related stuff!

To gather more response from y'all..
