Tia , thats a funny term you have given for your husband's behaviour 😆 . I have expressed my view about Dev hiding it from Sona in another post , and just retyping it here . Its true that love make us strong but it's our weakness too ... Sometimes we would rather keep quiet and suffer by ourselves than ruin the moment of happiness of our loved ones ... Now this is applicable for most of normal human beings , but "white knight complex" you have described for Dev didnt come overnight ... From the childhood he was led to believe that he is the sole person responsible for his mom n family's happiness , he is their only hope . He was always the "white knight" , he never knew any other way to be, even when he broke up with Sona , as heart breaking as it was, he believed , he could go through with it all alone , but thats the first time he misjudged himself as we all saw how he lost himself during that time . So we cant expect him to change overnight , can we ?
And now from the crazy , dramatic(funny?) imaginations of Dev about the reactions of the ladies in his life , one thing was evident in both - His haunting nightmare of a life without Sona . Yes he is dreaded of the possibility of another separation from Sona than his pain or torture ... It doesnt matter if he talks right away or not ,the fact that he decided to talk and convince Ishwari proves that its a mind over matter for him , nothing is a deal breaker for him now regarding his relationship with Sona . He very well know he had to talk to both Sona and Ishwari , but he may keep it to himself for the time being for their sake ...
As its a mind over matter for him , nothing changes the fact that he would get married to Sona . It may hurt her and Ishwari later that he had hidden this from them . But he also believe he could convince them later and earn their forgiveness, after all he got it even after leaving Sona, so now this lie by omission is only for their happiness . ( Still if it was a serious health condition where she had to take treatment from the next day , it would be unfair to keep it from all of them, but in this case its not)
And suppose as you said he come clean about it now , that only means spoiling the mood of the love of his life , whom he promised to give the whole happiness in the world , and the families who are currently so excited and on cloud nine with regards to their marriage . Even if they sort out the issue and decide to get married , it wont be the same as now . So years later when they look back at the dream wedding they hoped for , the memories would only leave a bitter taste ... Its just a matter of time .. There is nothing wrong in being considerate of of others feelings n happiness , after all the show is about the different shades of love and it spreads love ... Lets be a little bit more optimistic and not be over critical about each and everything and jump in with our loaded guns even before it actually happens ... I read a quote today , which I really liked
- "Promote what you love instead of bashing what you hate" ... 👍🏼
