They have lunch together EVERYDAY, he sends her flowers for Valentine's they are often seen sharing a snack. I see them sitting in her car and chatting on cold dark evenings when I get out of work, many times I don't notice them I pass by walking over to my car, she rolls her window down and greets me... Which tells me she is not ashamed to be seen with him after she has broken up!!!!!!!!!!!!
The dynamics are extremely different in this country, people stay friends many times long after they stop "hooking up". I know of guys that go over to their "Ex's" place to fix the washer or mow the lawn or repair the roof. The feminists can beat me up, but it clearly shows women ARE NEEDY. They don't mind seeking help from an "Ex".
Or if they are part of a "group" like R&B is... then many times the guy will go sleep at an "Ex's" if he has had too much to drink and doesn't want to drive after a night out.
I am still learning NOT to be judgmental. But yes, I WILL be judgmental about mean Desis.
There are many couples I know of that have parted ways amicably, we never know WHY R&B even dated her, I bet he found something attractive and exciting, to "us" she seems wealthy, bored and aimless. She is not aggressive and ambitious and talented like II, but she must have something that kept him going back to her for 4 years
He was based in Hong Kong at first, when his Mom jumped to her death, he left the country and moved to Paris
ditto to my thoughts i have seen very many amicable splits in US , for me having M in the wedding was kind of not cool because i wanted it to be about R&B and II and II to enjoy as much and if R&B had called her for the wedding knowing how nervous she was that would be a big NO
I honestly feel its not a big deal "now" .
Could be a lot of things that kept him going but i feel M will not be a mean cunning subbu , she will be more casual would have let him be and is normal enough person to come and see his wife and be actually happy for him .
also i dont know if my assumption is right but they were split in Delhi when she visited right?
