hey aabhz !!!! *hugs* awesome topic sweetie !!! You already know how much I like Neil, but I have my own reasons for liking him so much, and thats because to me he is the male version of Gunjan and everyone knows how much i love Gunjan !!! 😳
when I see Neil nowadays, he reminds of Gunjan after rose day and then Sheena track !!! After rose day it was so difficult for Gunjan to remain friends with Samrat, but she did stay friends with him because just like Neil said, its not important that love is reciprocated or not, respecting the feelings and the decision of the person you love is more important. The only difference between Gunjan and Neil is that while Gunjan has lived a sheltered life, Neil has seen the world and be exposed to practical life, which further adds to his maturity and the depth to his character, that is why when he entered the show he told Gunjan he has taken off his specs, and she should too, because he knew that even though with those specs they could see what others can't in the people, they love, but it also hides the ugliness in this world and protects you from the cruelties of life.
Another thing, I really like Neil a lot, he is everything a girl would want in a guy, but if it came to choosing between Neil and Samrat for Gunjan, I would always choose Samrat, because no one can love her that way Samrat does, and no one would have been able to get through to that inner Gunjan and made her confident about herself, then Samrat ! Lot of people fall in love but only very few become soulmates !! and SaJsan are soulmates not because they are perfect, they are soulmates because they are perfect for each other, despite knowing each other flaws and short comings !! 😳
