Michi - Blind as bats!

It is said that love is blind. One normally presumes that the word blind here means 'blind to each other's faults and failings'. But these two have taken it to a whole new level. They are so much in love with each other and blinded by it, they cannot even see the same feelings in the other's eyes. Here is Milsi consoling himself that he should be happy for Prachi who found her childhood love but the guy is'nt seeing that the woman he is trying to be pleased for is not pleased herself. In fact she is far from it. Pain in written all over the face at the very mention of engagement or marriage to the supposed love of her life. Should it not seem strange to him that a newly 'engaged' woman looks like she has just seen a ghost? No it is'nt because he is blind as a bat.

Prachi is no better. Here is a guy who congratulates her on her engagement, an engagement he himself was the first to announce, yet the guy looks like he has swallowed a milestone. He is saddened to see her with Neev. His eyes plead with her not to leave him. He fails to register joy when mamaji drops the bomb of a double marriage. For a man who is supposedly in love with his childhood friend and who wants to marry off his new friend to her childhood friend, should he not be jumping with joy at the very idea? No he does not. Instead He abruptly gets up and leaves the place unable to give an answer to mamaji's question. Does his behaviour not seem strange to her? No it doesn't because she is as blind as a bat too!

So when are these two going to stop looking inward and seeing the love they feel and start looking outward to see the love in their loved one's eyes?

ohhhh,,love is blind and deaf for them,,,

You're right opti, the duffer and dufferina are blind as bats 😆 😆

It's not unreasonable to assume that they are unable to read each other. Sometimes, when you are extremely sure that your desire will never get fulfilled, you fail to register the obvious (that it's already fulfilled!!!!!!). I undergo such moments a lot......! Sometimes, I am extremely afraid of losing my loved ones, and therefore emotionally detach myself by thinking bad about them.....it's strange! You train your mind and heart to think negative to protect yourself if something bad happens...in this case, MICHI believe that the other person doesn't love him or her, and therefore they don't understand some palpable signs

Their reactions are actually quite realistic! Milind has never been one to display his feelings overtly, and hence Prachi finds nothing amiss when he isn't jumping with joy at the prospect of marrying Ayesha. SImilarly, Milind mistakes her sparse smiles as an affirmation of her love for Neev

Kitty I am not talking of Milsi jumping with joy at the prospect of marrying Ayesha but his failure to be happy for his 'new' friend for the engagement he himself wanted so much. That should have rung a bell in her head but it does not. For a newly engaged couple Neev and Prachi sure look uncomfortable around each other. It is not shyness but plain awkwardness but still this guy is blissfully ignorant of it. That is why I said that they are too self absorbed in their feelings for each other and the fear of losing each other that even blatant signs go missing.

By the way who said that Milsi does not express himself overtly? Has one forgotten the way he serenaded his wife in full public view both during the engagement as well as during the sangeet?

lets hope they overcome this BLIND phase and declare their love soon 😳

^ Yeah, but that was after he fell for Prachi - this is Milind a year ago!!!!!! 😆

I am claiming that they are not blind, but simply misinterpret each other's reaction!!!!!!

For e.g., Prachi understands that Milind is tensed, but fails to realize that he is tensed BECAUSE of his newfound feelings for her. She has even questioned him couple of times about why he looks anxious and worried, but fails to realize that she is the root cause of his misery because, in her mind, Milind loves Ayesha right now and can never fall for her! They both are DENYING the prospect of the other person loving them!!!!!!!

Kitty, Milsi a year ago was even more shameless -the way he ran around Ayesha like a love sick puppy. No this man wears his heart on his sleeve. That is why it is strange that Prachi still does not feel that something is wrong.
