They face criticism from others from "summary" of Half Girlfriend by Chetan Bhagat
Criticism is like a storm that strikes when you least expect it. It can come from anyone - friends, family, strangers, even enemies. It can come in the form of words, glances, or even silence. And when you are already battling your own demons, criticism can feel like a heavy burden that weighs you down even further.
Criticism can be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it can push you to strive harder, to prove the naysayers wrong. It can fuel your determination and make you stronger. But on the other hand, it can also chip away at your confidence, leaving you feeling vulnerable and exposed.
For Madhav and Riya, criticism was a constant companion on their journey. People had opinions about their relationship, about their choices, about their dreams. Some criticized them out of concern, while others out of envy. Some criticized them to protect them, while others to hurt them. But regardless of the intentions behind the criticism, the impact was the same - it left them questioning themselves, their decisions, their worth.
Madhav and Riya had to learn how to navigate through the sea of criticism that surrounded them. They had to develop a thick skin, to shield themselves from the harsh words and judgmental glances. They had to find strength within themselves, to rise above the noise and stay true to who they were.
But amidst all the criticism, Madhav and Riya also found support. They found allies who stood by their side, who believed in them when no one else did. They found solace in each other's arms, in the quiet moments when they could shut out the world and just be themselves.
Criticism may have been a constant in their lives, but it was not the defining factor. It was just another obstacle that they had to overcome, another challenge that they had to face together. And in the end, it was their love, their resilience, their belief in each other that carried them through.
