Bhaiya, but like seriously, how do you expect their love story to start? Ideally, she'd be in therapy, become healthier, and put herself out there again.
But that ain't happening. I don't think people just jump into dating even if they move on from a broken relationship completely.
Imlie's BS-ing has slowly morphed into Tripathi-ing, and they need to show some conflict between them for feelings to grow. Because when he won't withhold his concern for her despite the conflicts, she'd realise the difference between conditional and unconditional love. Because she really is an idiot.
There needs to be some trigger for her to put herself out there again because Aryan is not the one who would spell it out for her.
