Never mind, Deepika, we do not have to agree all the time. I detest this Roxanne, and I wish I could get rid of her, that is all.

As for Alexander's bad luck, it had been gathering strength over the last 4 years of his life. After he married Roxanne, almost everyone in his close entourage bar Olympias, who was in any case far away, hated her and got alienated from Alexander because of his obession with her. That is a fact. All the battles he fought after he married her were only pyrrhic victories.

It is true,as Inlieu has said, that he was burning himself out. He also drank more and more, and was becoming paranoid about even his closest associates, many of him he had executed, thus worsening the alienation from his Macedonian base.

A wise and supportive wife, whom he loved to the point of obsession, should have been able to do something to curb these highly negative tendencies. What is the point in loving a man, as it is said that she did, if you do not try to keep him from doing too much and wrecking himself? A good wife is supposed to be a wise counsellor as well. I have never heard or read that Roxanne was such a wife.

She just took all that he had to offer after she had finished with trying to stab him, that is all. Why should she not have to prove her love? If you are going to be put on a pedestal as a mohabbat ki moorat, there had better be something you do to show that you deserve it. All the great romantic heroines did that. This woman was just a parasite, with no birth and no claims to any excellence except thar she was supposed to be very beautiful, which the girl playing her most definitely is not.

Barsine and Parypatis had birth and he married them, one each from each of the branches of the royal Achaemenid dynasty, because he wanted to get legitimacy as the new King of Kings. They both brought him that legitimacy that he craved. Roxanne brought him nothing,

Now kindly don't write another long note praising Roxanne. I have had enough of her. You are quite free to adore her as much as you like, but don't expect me to share it. I am already in a bad mood about this abysmal show and I don't want to make it worse!😉
