I do see where you are going and to some extent I agree with you that it was wrong on Mahi's part to shatter Ishaan's dreams...however I feel she herself was not what she wanted. Like she said, she thought she "needed" to get married and thus she named her "want" as love when it wasn't really true as we all know.
I feel that when she was having double thoughts, she felt that she was doubting if Ishaan would keep her happy and not break her heart again...and she wasn't doubting if she really wanted to get married. This realization struck her when she was going towards the stage (it didn't seem mandap to me), when she realized that she never really loved Ishaan...She was marrying him because she was being pressurized by her mother for which I think she did the right think...because she broke the marriage as soon as she realized what she wanted...because if they had being married then Ishaan's dreams would have been shattered more!
Talking from personal experience...when you try to think about something that is related to your heart...you will always get more confused and you really won't know what to do...and it is just this one moment when everything becomes clear...and it just happens...and then it is upto you to take the right decision or wrong one. I feel that she took the right decision because neither she nor Ishaan would have been happy if they had been married. I am not saying that it always happens, but in Mahi case I believe this is what happened.
When she was having double thoughts about getting married to Ishaan, I am sure that she thought what she wants to do...she even well saw a future with him and Shiv both...but that still didn't resolve her confusion...infact it just confused her more...she came close to the feeling that she isn't really quite happy...but then she hadn't eaten anything for past 3 days and that could be the reason for her unhappiness too because its Mahi! 😉
So I would say that she herself wasn't sure what she wanted and why she was doing what she was doing...she thought that marriage was "must" and it was needed which made her ignore the fact that it isn't something she "wants"... I don't know how clear I am...but yaa that is what I think!😳
PS: Oh I want to add this...when my friend told me how Mahi left Ishaan and ran from her marriage, I thought I would feel bad for Ishaan because although I am total Mahi-Shiv supporter, I thought Ishaan deserved a second chance for realizing his mistakes...afterall he is also a human...but seriously I really didn't feel any sympathy with him...I was jsut indifferent! Infact I was soo happy and cheering for Mahi that I forgot Ishaan...
It would have been better though if they had shown a final goodbye talk btwn Ishaan-Mahi...mature-ish talk by Ishaan...would have made me respect him but I guess not! 😛
