They had the perfect analogy today- house of cards that will topple at the slightest breeze. I understand that the premise of the current track is that Nav is more suited for Ak than Abhi cause respect. But how does it all even make sense when the whole thing is a play? I mean, there can't be true equality in a relationship until people feel safe for the relationship. For the past six years, Nav has done everything Ak asked, how is that equality or respect? He was just scared that Ak would leave with Abhir if he didn't listen to her. Even after his accident, when Nav found out and asked if Abhir should know his real dad Ak simply said that she would leave with Abhir. Compliance is not the same as trust or respect or anything, really. Now things are getting better cause Ak wants to make the relationship real. But even she is shown to do it for the wrong reasons. They are both agreeing cause they don't want the other person to leave.
Abhira were toxic, for sure, but they both knew and believed that they wanted to be with each other. So they fought and everything, but they never complied with each other just for the sake of the relationship. Infact they actively harmed their relationship cause they thought oh their love is so strong it will keep them together. Obviously that was also wrong, but just cause that was wrong doesnt make this right.
Even Abhi is just complying with everything Arohi is saying cause he is afraid she will take ruhi away. Arohi is afraid Abhi will leave for Ak. No relationship can stand on those grounds.
