Kya Yahi Pyaar Hain? *Maan-Geet*

I've been following Geet since the beginning and I must say I truly love all the characters...yeah, even Pari and Naintara and Dev, but somehow the story line keeps disappointing me from time to time.

The show is more about the physical attraction between Geet and Maan, rather than the LOVE. I mean, okay, Geet and Maan find each other sensuous but does that mean they LOVE each other?
Imagine Maan ke jagah koi aur ladka Geet ke itte kareeb aata in various situations....toh tab kya yeh feelings, yeh desires nahi hote? Obviously, it's basic biology, hote. When a guy and girl come as close as these two keep coming, the hormones are bound to do their jaadoo.
But does that really translate into LOVE?

I think NO. Love is not all that bullshit about Opposites Attract and whatever. Love is when you can discuss anything and everything with someone. When there are no petty insecurities, no stupid hesitation over stuff like touching and kissing and so on, no need to hide, no need to lie, no need to pretend, no need to fear, no need to change. Unfortunately itti saari paribhashaon mein se ek bhi Maan-Geet case mein satisfy nahi hoti.

Do Maan and Geet ever talk with each other about their problems, dreams, life?NO. I would have liked to see both of them open up to each other about their past...but...well....they are too busy falling and catching..
Do Maan and Geet share a single common line of thought? No. I don't find their ideas matching on anything. How the hell can they live with each other when they're so different? Suppose both have contradicting ideas on an issue. Of course, they might resolve it by choosing one optio, but jiska opinion nahi maana gaya ...usne toh apna man maar ke hi haan bola hoga na? And that means SACRIFICE. And imo, sacrifice means anything but love. Love is when you can be YOU, no need to change or do things you don't wanna do. Love is about being with your SOULMATE.. whose basic nature is like yours, so you can be yourself without any botherations.

(Please don't tell me opposites attract, yes, i know they do, but they can't ever stay together. It's actually "like begets liking" which works in real life)

Do Maan and Geet do anythinh REAL lovers do in real life? Like maybe chatting normally, having fun normally without feeling each other's hotness ALL the damn time?! NO.

Thus I think what they're undergoing these days does not classify as love at all.

Okay yes, Maan keeps playing the Mr. Chivalrous and saving the pretty damsel in distress every now and then, but that's HELP, insaaniyat,good intention, whatever...how come LOVE?

I don't think Geet and Maan love each other. They're just facing some teenage-type attraction. CVs,youre doing pretty well, but you gotta add much more meat to their lovestory to convince us, or chalo atleast me, ki it's LOVE.

P.S: even an "agree" or "disagree" reply will do :)

😊 Disagree...

I think what they are going through is the butterflies-in-stomach stage which precedes any relationship...I think the companionship that you are talking about comes only when your relationship matures...

If you have been in a relationship long enough i am sure you will also agree the stuff you talk about today is very different from what you spoke about 5 years ago- thats just maturity/growth...

But i do agree wholeheartedly that the story needs to move forward from the "catching and falling"- in the real word probably anyone else in Geet's place would have told they guy- Yes i like you but i cannot get into any kind of relationship with you unless you are willing to share/accept my baggage!

I would also like to disagree with your viewpoint on opposites attract- infact i think if the two people involved are too similar that just makes the couple very boring....

but having differing interests/way of looking at things/personalities adds spice to the relationship- leads to high levels of conflict-Yes! but also keeps the relationship interesting and stimulating...

Just my 2 cents...
