But my point is that if the night was enjoyable to either or both then that would be the easy way out. It's a romanticized version. If they are physically compatible and there's a hint of attraction then that's at least10% of the job done to bring them closer. Rest can be worked out with time.
If they choose the tougher route then the night was bad in every way for both and then they have to tread towards the impossible - which is working towards becoming compatible. No magic. No serendipity. I know it's not romantic đ but it's real. In real life people have to work towards knowing each other..even in the bedroom, partners have to talk about what they like and what they don't..magically things don't just work out. But maybe I'm expecting too much. Maybe you all are right and maybe the easier route will be taken where both felt something and they kinda liked whatever happened that night đ
Sorry for the long rant đ
there is a difference between liking each other physically and liking each other emotionally as people. the latter hasn't happened yet. not to get into romantic novel territory but who is to say that physically it wasn't unpleasant but instead confusing for both of them. that when they touched, there was unexpected sizzle? đ„ thats why we are perhaps seeing conflicting emotions happen.
I will share a story I heard on radio years ago which I thought would have made an interesting drama. so this lady ended up having a one night stand with her brother-in-law. all of a sudden her husband died in accident and she was in deep depression. her brother-in-law is about 10 years older than her, divorced but was close to his younger brother. so he was trying to look out and would keep checking in on her to make sure she was alright. one night, him trying to comfort her while she was bawling ended up with both of them spending the night. as the lady put it, was super confusing because it wasn't unpleasant and threw both of them for a curveball. while the husband had been very alive, it had been a very formal relationship with distance. that night obviously changed their dynamic.
fast forward a year later, the brother-in-law was now head over feels for her and wanted to marry her. she meanwhile is just confused, feeling guilty and freaking out about what people would say. so she had written to the radio station to ask what she should do and it was interesting to hear very different views from listeners. some thought the brother-in-law took advantage of her. others thought they just bonded over their grief. some were like it is fine to go for a new relationship but just make sure you are ready. many were quite sympathetic to her.
like you and others have mentioned, katha was hardly in the right frame of mind to enjoy the night given her stress over aarav. but then neither was this lady from the radio story. so what happened that night? thats why I was thinking of something like 5% where it wasn't awkward on some level. hence the very domestic vibe between viaan and katha since the night...
