I am starting to believe more and more that maybe Khushi thought Arnav was better off with a "modern" type of girl.
Maybe some comment by Arnav that a particular type of filmy gathering was not for her could have triggered her insecurities too.
Is that why she did not fight for her marriage or ask for counseling?
Morning ! I fell asleep after commenting. 🙂My two cents.
Khushi's personality etched in this SS is of a person who is aware..she was as a 19 year old and understood Arnav needs. The quality has not changed.
In Arnav musing he did say that she tried for months and then stopped. But he did not make any effort. He had given up on the marriage for a while. So she knows things are wrong.
She dodged Arnav question of who told her about the divorce (maybe there is more there),but when someone says "he cannot be in the same room as me" (I paraphrase) is a worst kind of realization. To top that your husband never discussed with you about the divorce,has already hired lawyers and you hear about it from the grapevine!
She can only infer that for him the relationship has no meaning. It is disrespectful. To her it is really over and hence no counselling.
(Months planning,getting lawyers not informing her....I cannot understand that. She hardly comes across as a gold digger maybe to prevent any kind of reconciliation. More there maybe or he is soulless).
In the prologue Arnav seems to hate the anniversary celebration and one assumes he just does not like this kind of festivities. But later muses that he was glad she stopped attending galas with him. So the issue is her with him.!
And every comment made by him or others in the past will come back to haunt her. The relationship seems unequal and there is no communication between the two (courtsey him)...so separation is not surprising.
