I do agree he is very selfish and it does affect other people but my sole annoyance is the behaviour of the parents..

I prefer to be annoyed by the person who was so selfish that he ruined a girls life and bought disgrace on his family.

If you think that then you have completely missed the whole point of this very long storyline.

What is the point then? That we should accept disgraceful behaviour just because someone is gay?

Zainab and Massod having an affair while she was married to Yusef also brought disgrace Syed isnt the only one

why is being gay disgraceful?

what syed did was cowardley because he wouldnt stand up and admit who he was, and would rather 'do the right thing' for a quiet life. Something hundreds of people do every year because of family pressure

He ruined her life cause in the end he was forced into marrying her... it could have ended before they got married and she would not have had the baby, would not have been disgraced by marrying a gay man and who forced him into it??? oh yeah.. his mother!!! he told her he wasn't going to do it but she forced him.. so if you look at it that way Zainab ruined 2 peoples lives...

Nobody is saying you should accept disgraceful behaviour cause someone is gay but the actions of his parents have a lot to do with this too

The wedding was HIS idea. Zainab ddi not know about his deceit untill a few hours before the wedding and assumed that he would be able to do the honourable thing

I know that and it is what I have said before..he did love Amira and he was mixed up with his sexuality and losing his family.. When Zainab found out they went to a room together and Syed said that he was not going through with it cause he loved Christian and if I remember rightly it was Zainab that told him to forget about Christian and marry Amira.. So Syed was going to do the honourable thing and NOT marry Amira...

I thought it looked like pats room at the beginning.

The honourable thing would have been not to propose to the girl or even to break it off before his parents had shelled out thousands on his fancy wedding. Would he have called it off if Zainab hadn't found out....Prorably not.

NB....Please don't get the idea that I don't like Syed
