The whole point why I drew a parallel of a man seeking company amidst woman after the recent death of his wife , was to showcase that's it's not the case of ill treatment exclusively toward widows but rather the genuine stance of the family of the deceased .
Edit: Italics : In this case their is intersection that both times it was claimed ' soul love ' from which she moved on .
I think this is a special scenario because of Abhir. I do think that a man's actions would not be criticized that much. But in either case the point isn't that they are seeking the company of anyone, but that they are going through a tough time and need a friend and confidante.
Even without Abhir in the picture, I think Abhi helping Ak would be valid and should not be looked at like that by anyone. She is obviously in grief and if a friend can help her come out of it, it should not matter if that friend is her ex or anyone from the opposite sex.
In this case though, Abhi has made it clear he is there for Abhir and he is mostly focusing on Abhir. Muskaan also has an issue with Abhir developing a bond with Abhi or spending time with him. So it's not specific to Ak.
Like Abhi in the beginning of the leap was accused of treating Ak as his possession, Muskaan is now acting like Ak and Abhir are Nav's possessions.
