Agreed. Trust, respect actually are more valuable than love in a relationship especially spouses.
But more than love realization what would be nice to see is genuine concern, empathy not an obligation.
How is the man who can't stand anyone in tears, the man who always senses Abhira in trouble, knows when she is lying or hiding things- how he is so clueless about how pressured and isolated she is.
The issue hasn't been that he prioritized his family over her but that he couldn't see her emotions at all.
In yuvraj track he knew Abhira was upto something but didn't refute Dadi throwing her out. He kept asking her and then ultimately rightfully got annoyed. But he knew something was up. In kaveri case time, he accused her but still wasn't able to stay away and looked for her at night when she left home.
But now he is losing her for good, he's struggling to deal with his conflict and his feelings but he's not even shown venting about it alone. All the time he's with Ruhi.
Today he didn't get a scene praying for her to do well in exam or feeling affected to see her having a breakdown in the middle of her exam which is so bad she left her exam to go cry. Rather it was an emotion of "good riddance" because its her last exam and how dare she mess up the exam which he wanted to strike off his to do list as zimmedari khatam. He had no compassion until she confronted him about Ruhi.
