We both are travelling in the same boat. My life has become undisciplined too bcoz of this show😆. Kaam dhandha chod ke din bhar getting frustrated or dreaming , alternating between twitter and IF to read fd's opinions n spoilers.

Even I'm unable to completely detach in spite making resolve everyday to detach.😆. Old episodes are my life line these days too.

Actually I've started watching Imlie since the marriage track and just caught up quickly on old episodes from Nov- Mar in Apr to understand the story. So, I really don't remember every Arylie scene by heart . Ever since this preg track started I have started to properly watch the show from epi 310. I'm really enjoying watching it again because it almost feels like watching new bcoz I don't exactly remember everything. There are some scenes I have watched on drive repeatedly before but most of them still feel new for me and this what is keeping me sane in this crazy track. I've reached till Adi reaching PD epi .Would you believe me If I say that I have not even watched the first Shiddat dance properly n don't exactly remember it😆.So now I'm really excited to watch it.

But I'm afraid too. 1 week mein I have watched 2 months of show till PD . If the current track doesn't doesn't sudharofy in next 1 week to 10 days then my epi bank would be over. Of course I can start again and again🤣

Or you can read fan fictions.

Lots floating around here 💫

Yep, Fan fictions are a great medium to get your mind off what's happening in the show and still derive the gratification you would normally get form watching the show at least to some extent. In fact now after a decade, I'm still attached to the fan fictions I've read on IPK . New works pop up even today. I read and re read those fictions more than I actually watch the show now.

I've been following Second Chances and other than that I'm not really aware any other works on Imlie here on IF or any other platform. Would you mind recommending any other good fictions on Arylie.

Try dawn, it's complete.

Even full circle is completed only epilogue remains

Komal's stories are also finished

Shiddat dance is coming up now on my watchlist❤️. Yep the charm or even my love and obsession is no longer the same. It's dwindling. I've realized that this is a ITV main stream drama and I'm bound to get disappointed if not now then with with future tracks. That's inevitable. I have to see if I can continue with the show in the future even with these tracks or I will simply drop the show.

But I certainly don't want Aryan to doubt Imlie or question her fidelity. I believe he will never confront her but I don't even want him to be thinking and getting suspicious along those lines. Even if it's a ploy by Arylie, I still don't want that to ever happen. I will be extremely disappointed and will regret the day I started watching this show if something like that is shown.

More than anything even if I'm parting ways with the show bcoz of not liking the show's tracks, I still want to remember it for the good times of Arylie and want their core characterization to be retained forever.

My advice to you is watch it for yourself. Don't let others dissuade you from experiencing something yourself. Everyone's view of the same situation is never quite the same. There have been several times when I've seen other people's bad reviews of a particular episode of this show but when I've watched it myself have found it not as bad as people say and sometimes even good.

And we know fandom over reacts most of the time.
