Shahid Kapoor is creepy AF ! These statements and video are a huge red flag ngl. Curious to know how many of the women here would want to be in a relationship where their partner thinks about them in this way

Here are some of the comments:

"And to think this man was my first love," commented one user.

"Did Seema Taparia from Mumbai set their match," wrote another.

"Also, it’s like he’s realizing that she’s her own person. Like does he not think women have their own dreams and desires and don’t just exist for men," commented another.

"So raising a manchild, is what marriage is," commented another. 

“If she’s your babysitter, you have a nanny not a wife,” wrote another.

“I don't want to fix anyone. Bkwas," wrote another.
