Raman is man...and WHAT A MAN!😉
His idea to jump straight to the physical relationship before confession and wooing, i think it is understandable when you look t where he is mentally right now.
Despite being a super successful business man and father he has been severely burned by love and has mistrusted it and fought back against after Shagun. His behavior and reactions since Mani's entrance is like that of a teenager who is love for the first time. The jumping to conclusions, the possessives, the self doubt... it's like he is really and truly falling in love for the first time. That's why he is stumbling so much and unable to be direct with her because, i think there is that sense of 'how can someone so wonderful and great love ME?' [a sentiment he has stated during the Mani track] and he thought that the physical joining will be able to cement the relationship in a way that can't be taken back.
With Shagun he was super romantic and verbal and she walked away and burned him- but what still keeps them connected? The consequences of their physical connection, the kids. And though he knows that the possibility of children with ISHU is less [don't break my heart and say it will never happen- i hope they explore that avenue later...😃] a part of him thinks that the physical connection has a more lasting impact then the verbal admission. He sees and knows the value of the the words. And he recognizes that 'she is special' and values different tings than Shagun and knows she deserves it too... but it's like his past lessons, the headiness of being well and truly in love for the first time and his lack of confidence in his own value in relation to her has him behaving rather comically.
Plus don't forget this idea came from Bala who is often held as an ideal husband/romantic and who Rman really respects and wants to learn from. WHY this was Bala's only advice is something to discuss in another post.🤔 But why Raman took this advice so easily, makes sense- he is confused and drowning in love and wants desperately to make the right move so that Ishu knows where he stands and he can get confirmation of what he only suspects- her feelings for him.
Raman is a man, a man in love; but he is also a man who is always in control feeling out of control and free falling towards his wife and that is what has him acting in way that seems very out of character for a man with two children who has confessed his love to a woman and treated her to ultimate romantic fantasies in the past.😆
Does this make sense? 😕
