My hopes are dwindling right now for any logical reason being provided for why Imlie has jumped to such a heavy handed conclusion....I would have even understood if she was confused and wondered if Adi really meant all the things he said to her.....but she has totally come to a full on conclusion on the basis of barely any evidence.....she just heard about the HM from Mrs. C of all people and blindly believed it to this extent, that too after herself telling Adi the day before ki it's important you only give your time to Malini and not focus on me.
The bizarre thing also is that if she already believed all this, why give tashan to Mrs. C like that and leave the house by talking about what her rights were? The things are all feeling so disjointed on the Imlie side of things, sadly.....as Lodestar pointed out, in the need to prop up psycho Didi, they couldn't bother giving Imlie's thought process any screen space.
Weird part is that Imlie was there when everyone was discussing the cancellation of the HM too.....woh bhi apparently didn't register on her....they have literally shut off her brain for this contrivance....sigh.
I suppose there is some irony to be noted in Adi being accused of dhoka by both his biwis but it is the accusation from Imlie that broke him.....Malini ke case mein he was willing to accept that blame as a price for expressing the truth, he was willing to bear all the hatred/maligning coming his way....but Imlie was the one person who has witnessed everything in this complicated journey with him and she decided to accuse him of betrayal at this point of all points.....lol
I could have chalked it up to Adi never managing to clarify his past with Malini to Imlie but at this point I don't even know if that's what Imlie's issue is.....this strangely delayed level of insecurity and lack of faith is just not convincing right now.....I'm remembering the time he fell sick and she herself told him that she doesn't think he is betraying her.....ab woh sab kahaan gaya? He could see then also that she was getting upset seeing him with Malini and he was trying to clarify it for her then also but Imlie didn't let him and kept saying she believed he wasn't betraying her.....now suddenly that "betrayal" is a full on conclusion in her mind....and ofcourse goes without saying that if she thinks this is betrayal, why did she keep asking him to go to Malini each time he came to see her, right up to the most recent day in college?😕😆
My guess is that Imlie's faith in relationships has been shaken after the Ts' made her paraaya in an instant after showing her so much apnaapan and showering her with affection. I don't remember her exact words but in the recent Adilie scene outside T house recently, she said something along the lines of "It only takes a few days to form and break relationships". Amidst all the recent torture, confusion & disorientation she faced, I think she has succumbed to her worst fears and extrapolated this hurt and sense of betrayal onto her relationship with Adi. I don't think she thought through anything logically, waise bhi relationships are underpinned by faith only for her.😆
Another possibility is that seeing the Ts' putting Malini on a pedestal and berating her has brought out her latent insecurities regarding not being accepted by her sasuraal even if Adi does manage to give her her rights. Moreover, Mrs C's insults about her being a gawaar villager having no comparison to Malini & Ts' behaviour possibly exacerbated her insecurities. Toh she believed Mrs C's lies and started thinking that Adi went back to Malini because she is not 'good enough' for him.😕
I think she gave tashan to Mrs C about her rights because she subconsciously does consider herself the Tripathi Bahu but she has suppressed her desire to claim her right because of Didi. That day this desire bubbled to the surface. Also, the thing with Imlie is that she is content with keeping faith on her end of the relationship without other party reciprocating. On Holi day she said that she has haq on every rishta in T house. With them suddenly making her exit their house and their lives, she can no longer keep the faith on her end that she is their bahu and has haq on them. She made another sacrifice by leaving them but she wasn't happy about it. I'm guessing this contributed to her anger that spilled out that day in front of Mrs C with her claiming that Malini only got her rights because she sacrificed hers.
I'm thinking she told Adi to go to Malini recently in college out of habit?😆 But I think she didn't expect him to actually leave and that jolted her a bit. Overall, the emotional cauldron of fear, insecurity & faithlessness that she has experienced lately has made her succumb to her worst fears of Adi abandoning her. That's my POV anyway.
