Personally I feel all the major characters Mishti, Pari, Ruhaan and Veer are very much human & relatable. But it's the horrible execution that I cannot convince myself about their so called PROGRESSION OF LOVE.
There is no hard and fast rule on how a person should fell in love. For different people it can be different things. And getting attracted is not a crime. It's a very much common and natural thing. The problem is when they are using too much of proximity and almost zero communication.
I know some people would jump at me saying communication doesn't mean you have to talk for hours & I agree with that too. A person can definitely admire someone after observing his/her traits, which Ruhaan has done so far. Even, Mishti knows that Ruhaan isn't a bad guy. She does have a good image of him protecting her siblings.
So even if there was an unintentional misunderstanding, the writer could clear that up in the very beginning and show them having civil conversations and getting to know each other. But it's in fact the opposite. Mishti literally verbally attacks Ruhaan every time there is some problem. And I have strong disliking for verbal abuse. Just as much as I hate typical angry young man heroes of ITV, I hate Mishti equally for her this one particular aspect.
Just because you are in love with someone it doesn't mean you can't get attracted towards anyone else, EVER!!! No one is perfect. Every person has his/her flaws. But when we are in love, we overlook these inadequacies and be happy with the person we are in love with. Now, definitely, if someday I see a person with a particular quality that I miss in my partner, I would notice it and may be get drawn towards him a little bit. But is that love? Definitely not. With time that superficial attraction will fade away and I would return to my partner no matter how flawed he is.
I remember majority of the viewers wanted Kunal to realize Nandini was a fatal attraction and Mauli was his one true love.
Then when it comes to Mishti, why is Ruhaan supposed to be her true love? Why can't he be just a mere attraction? Ruhaan and Mishti may end up becoming great friends in future. Why is it necessary that they have to be in love with each other? If attraction was the base of every relation, then I suppose 2 of every 3 people would fall out of love every now and then.
Mishti is too young to get married frankly. She still needs to give Veer time because so far we have seen there is a huge communication gap in their relationship. She can be honest to him, take some free time, ponder over her change and decide for herself. SHE HAS EVERY RIGHT TO DO THAT.
There is no reason to shame her saying she's gonna ditch Veer as well as no need to glorify her sudden attraction for Ruhaan.
The writer should do some serious damage control because if KuNan were lusty, MishAan is coming at 10 times more shallow than they were. This is based on so far what I have seen. If they can still change the story, I'll be more than happy.
