if arjun wasnt happy he should have walked out,if ovi wasnt happy and not beign love as she wanted love and should have ,then walk out as well.dont be delusional and contnue with something that was broken from the beginning.
if im not wrong then ovi did walk out. infact she flew out. to another country. arjun cant seem to let it be. are you still going to say ovi is encouraging her delusions? or is it arjun who is insistent that he loves her and wants her back?
as well as no one ( be it man or woman)on this earth should put up with any spouse who is nagging ,bad,,annoying and suspicious bacuse before you can love sombedy you have to love yourself,and if these qualities are not providing happiness in your life and you are miserable ,then how the hell will you make someone else happy.
no one is asking anyone to put up with an annoying wife or husband. clearly i've said that if you find your spouse is that bad, you should run away. not beg her to come back if she's already left you. every single person in this world is insecure about something. there is something about everyone that if teased can tear them apart. you may think you dont have any such feature but you do. that doesnt have anything to do with their potential to love. but yes if your not happy, theres only so much you can pretend. thats why i believe ovi left. she was not happy and spread that unhappiness to everyone. y does hero AK want to bring such a spoil sport into his life?
it has nothing to do wih modern /porgressive times but in modern times you cant expect to get two people married becaue of family,business or they are best friends,that do not make the basis of a strong marrigae.there was nothing of a loving strong marriage at the beginning so what do they need to salvage now??
excuse me. in this modern day i got married because of family and business connections between my granddad and my husband's family. we had a really bad start but that only made us stronger. foundation can be solidified. there is always something to salvage in a marriage given both parties are willing. its about your conviction to your commitment not love. we didnt salvage our marriage out of love but rather out of respect for our commitment and love followed. and to this date i can bet you im absolutely not the only one. there are probably still a lot more arranged marriages than love ones in india to date. and heres the kicker- im half english. not even fully indian and my parents had a love marriage but are divorced now. but yes, you may feel like there's nothing to salvage in this one and i would agree. arjun is clearly not willing to do what it would take to salvage his marriage. then y keep calling and doing emotional attyachar on ovi?
in the first place many modern woman be it indian or not would not subject themsleves to so much pain and suffereing,i think modern women are much more decisive,smarter and strong to know what will work for them and wouldnt.i dont want to be any stepmother to any child,so hell no would i be hooking up with any man who has a child,because the bio mother and father will always share a special bond wihich is the child,that aint working for me,so ill focus on my career if those are the only type of men available.i wouldnt complicate my life and create a mess and then blame every tom ,dick and harry fro my unhappiness,that is plain old stupid.
she wasnt exactly asked whether she wanted to be a stepmom to pari now was she? and she's not blaming tom, dick and harry. she's blaming her husband who is still stringing her along and his ex purvi who dumped her dead child like yesterday's news and replaced it with ovi's husband's illegitimate child. as far as moving on goes- she is concentrating on her career. now if her husband is going to call her and then have his ex hanging around then clearly thats rubbing salt on her wound. now whether he did that willingly or not- hows she suppose to know? the proper response from arjun should have been to ask purvi to leave as he is having a personal convo with his wife. not gape with his mouth open.
if you realise that the marriage aint working that the spouse doesnt love you and he still pursuing you then use some sense and realise that if he didnt love me in 1 yrs he will love me in one week? but then again if you are just a talker and talking big and not standing by your decision of moving on and bettering your life then you would nt be cool with whatever happenin with the husband or who is there with him even in the bedroom
but if you are a strong person and can make it on your own then the husband can do whatever he wants even a bedroom ivasion.
she did exactly what she said she would. she left and didnt bother him at all. he decided to call her insistently and all she said was ok i'll see what he wants. even divorces are not possible without communication. she just called to see what he wanted. he said that its unfair of you to leave me when i need you. she gave him time to figure out what he wanted to do with their marriage. saying that implies that he wants her. she has been explicit- you cant have purvi anywhere if you want me. if he says that he wants her back, then he gives her the right to care about a bedroom invasion. thats not how marriage works. if it was a matter of simple rationale nobody would get married in the first place or there would be no divorces. as long as your legally married and actually even soon after the divorce its not as easy to be calm and 'cool' about a bedroom invasion. it hurts the old self respect.
again this is my principles on how ill live my life and my responses which doesnt have to be
aligned to any ther persons' likes or dislike.if you dont live like that then you have a choice to agree or disagre,it makes all kind of people to make this world go around..
you've made a lot of generalizations about how you think things work in the modern world where love reigns as the principle reason behind marriages. so it cant really be about how you live your life. im guessing your unmarried. so really it is only a hypothetical assumption of how you would handle a situation you havent faced. but i appreciate your strength of character if your able to keep 'cool' in ovi's situation.
thank you
