@heygiwriter, I have a genuine question about Jay's character arc.

Why should Jay remain sexless while Nikita and Tarun are allowed to move forward physically? Would Jay being with someone else automatically mean he hasn't changed or that his love for Nikita wasn't real?

To me, those aren't necessarily the same thing.

If Jay sleeps with someone immediately after everything falls apart, I'd agree that it could undermine his redemption arc and make it seem like he hasn't learned from his mistakes.

But if enough time has passed, the marriage is truly over, and Jay has genuinely grown as a person, then eventually finding love again or even becoming intimate with someone new doesn't erase what he felt for Nikita. In fact, it could show that he's finally become capable of building a healthy relationship instead of repeating his old mistakes.

Character growth isn't measured by whether someone remains celibate. It's measured by whether they've learned accountability, honesty, and emotional maturity.

I'm curious to see how you handle this, because I think Jay deserves an ending that reflects his growth, not just his punishment.
