I think Omar was anyway going to leave civil service, he no longer enjoyed the power he used to with change in political scenario. I think his reservation for Aleezah was more because of his professional problems, he knew Aleezah accepted him as he was even though she knew he smoked,drank had an illegitimate affair with Judy, but still she wanted to marry him. I think they could have married if Omar left bureaucracy. But Omar was very strong willed, he worked in london and did not like the lifestyle, he wanted a luxurious life. He had the choice.He had degree. He had all the option in the world to live a life unlike his father, but he made a conscious choice to live in Pakistan. After Zara he never had a relationship with anyone, as he once said to nano, he doesnt need to know how to present himself and his family to world, he needed someone to tell him how to deal with pressure. He never had that someone. Although he learnt enough in his 8 years of service which action of his was moral and what will get him in trouble, but by then he was inebriate by the power and did not want to leave. I think if Junaid was not in the scene,i.e. if Junaid died,only then Omar might have thought about marrying Aleezah now that he was anyway out of bureaucracy. Other wise no I dont think in any circumstance would he have ever wanted to marry Aleezah.
Yes..his profession was a major reason, why he chose not to marry Aleeza..but it was not the only reason.. I think his own temparament, his personality were an important aspect of him refusing to marry Aliza... Because, if u remember, in the scene where he talked to nano, abt his refusal to marry aliza, he said tht my temperamant, my lifestyle would not suit aliza.. I am unfit fotr relationships.. My personality is built on paradoxes unlike junaid.. I can be a good friend to aliza, but not a good husband... The way he grew up, had left long lasting impact on his personality.. The reasons he gave to nano, were more related to his own personality, than his job.. Ofcourse, he did mention tht i have to do many things in my job which she dislikes...but then he did say tht both, myself and aliza have incomplete personalities, and two such people cant make a happy family... I think he thought tht aliza had mostly seen his good side, like as a caring friend to her, but maybe he wouldnt have been able to give her the same care, permanentky given his own temparament issues, and tht would hurt her.., which he did not want...
Infact the same question was asked to umera... I 'll check if i can find her response... Yes..got it
Q- if umar loved her so much, why couldnt he change himself for her?
1 If Umar Jehangir could have changed himself for a woman, he would not have been Umar Jehangir :) Men hardly change themselves no matter how passionately they love a woman. They woo and win women with their passion not by changing themselves. Yeah, we are that silly and vulnerable :) Women change themselves to win men's heart. He knew Aleeza like the back of his hand and he knew that if they get married, his life style is going to torment her immensely and tht is one thing, he could never do to her
Here also, umera mentions his life style in general, and not his job
What i meant by question, to you, tht if aleeza had died, maybe out of guilt, of hurting her, he would have thought tht maybe i should have married her, and not hurt her, if she had such a short life...not tht he would have actually married her, if she was alive... He had no plans of marrying her... But what i meant..tht when some loved one dies, we do sometimes blame ourselves, and think of doing things, differently than we did..which one never thinks of doing so.. Sometimes, we blame ourselves, for hurting our loved ones, when they are no more
