If we go by intensity, his feelings for her are intense, but so was his tenacity to change for her and do things right and his want to belong to someone, that you can confuse it with love...
Sincere and deep feelings is enough for people to claim it as love... But in marriage or for the word love, there is no end actually.. 🤣
Maybe claiming that we belong to each other, is love. Right now the reason they have rights over each other is primarily marriage and secondarily their own feelings towards each other.
If you take marriage out of their equation, will they fight for their relationship, is the question..
Another thing which binds them together is their nature of being responsible and committed. Even with the hatred, they were committed to each other once they were married. That committment part is like something you feel is a right thing to do, like Raghav knows that this is what he should for her, as he is her husband. A lot of his actions were/are guided by that commitment.
Sincere commitment itself is a very awww-worthy emotion, though. Like I would take that over flowers or confessions anyday.
Coming to Pallavi, it's a mix of things, it's in her nature to care and care deeply, and make the other person's problems her own, so I won't be surprised if she get hurt here because she is too deep in this, once again...However Raos will not let her go too far on that path ever.. They know how to stick by your own... So Pallavi will be secure in that regard... Even though Raghav might not reveal his emotions explicitly, he will never let her feel unwanted... There is a difference between ignorance and taking someone for granted... I feel he was taking her for granted in this instant because there was someone else who needed attention.. or rather his own need..
Oh yeah I was talking about Pallavi's emotions, first I thought Pallavi was being giving because Raghav needs it, he needed that security, assurance and commitment, but then she was also voicing out her acceptance of him as her husband. I think it became pretty clear. He is her first priority. And since she isn't really the person who believes in self preservation, has fewer doubts about her own self and Raghav, she is able to voice that out aloud and make her intentions clear. She will be able to voice that aloud even if Mandar comes, because her definition of rights and wrongs are not muddled like Raghav's.
Raghav also is straightforward, but you can see him going back and forth on his feelings, mainly because he is a tedha insaan. 😆
He wasn't hesitant in declaring to Pallavi that he wants her to stay, and will do anything for her in order to make her stay. His feelings were totally out, when he was in this fear of loosing her. Those feelings were not exactly love, but the fear of loosing someone important, the fear of being alone again... He was really being very tactful in not hurting her or anyone in that phase, because fear..
Now he has gotten that assurance, and he has relaxed a bit, and is leaning towards his RR habits, of deciding on his own, being a little immature in decisions, getting overpowered by his family needs, being shallow and casually throwing some words which can hurt.... One day he is that sane sensible person with deep thoughts, that he will forget his own happiness for the sake of others, the next day he will behave selfishly or irrationally. LOL. The next day he will be Pallavi ka cute husband once again.. 😆
Once again reminded of the song, kabhi neem neem kabhi shehad shehad. 🤣
In short, Raghav is a complicated person. He doesn't have the luxury of being an ideal person all the time like Pallavi because she has a clear conscience, he doesn't. .
