Erkan is so caring when it comes to Dicle that I’m genuinely torn. On the one hand, I want them to have time to just be together. I want Dicle to keep growing, learning, finding her confidence, and I want them to enjoy being newly in love without rushing into everything. But on the other hand, I am dying to see Dicle pregnant someday. Can you even imagine what Erkan would be like? He already worries about her over the smallest things. I feel like he’d hover over her 24/7 😂

Oh my god I was literally JUST thinking about this last night, anon.

On the more realistic side, I feel like we'll get more time to see them grow as a true couple. Also they have to deal with like....all that other mess that's going on. Let's not think about it right now lmfao.

But I was just imagining them being parents and the domestic bliss of them being a little family and I almost like -- combusted. I'm vibrating into the 7th dimension even typing this.

Can you imagine Erkan as a DAD? LIKE.

i’m not going to lie, i absolutely love the pool scene where erkan is panicking because he thinks dicle wants a divorce.

the man is completely miserable. she’s barely speaking to him, she doesn’t want to have a real conversation with him.

but every time i watch it, a tiny voice in the back of my head goes:

“and how exactly do you think she felt, sir?”

because this is the same man who handed her divorce papers without her knowledge and let her find out by accident.

so while i’m sitting there feeling bad for him, i’m also thinking, “welcome to the consequences of your own actions, my friend.”

i love erkan, but that scene always makes me laugh a little because he’s finally experiencing a fraction of the confusion and heartbreak he put dicle through.

I FEEL THE SAME WAY. It was SO validating watching him basically just

Follow up on the last Sevdigim Sensin ask, I feel like if they didn't start so late in the season and had more than 15 episodes, we could have gotten an earlier love confession and had Dicle not believing him. I feel we sort of lost momentum when we had a 2 week break and returned to an episode where Erkan spent the first hour away from Dicle digging dirt with Civan. Luckily it picked back up the episode after, but there was a real chance of it slowing down for another few episodes like in TBD. I saw someone say on twitter (sarcastically) that they were so worried we weren't going to get scenes like this, this being Ferman on his bus to the village with multiple establishing shots. Meanwhile we didn't even get a 20 second scene establishing how Erkan and Dicle ended up separated after the proposal for Dicle to be alone with Ferman and Derya. On a final note, Civan telling Erkan what mess could Derya and Dicle be in when they disappeared in the morning. "This is the village". As if their mother didn't get shot here and Dicle kidnapped to be trafficked.

Wait oh my gosh that's actually a great point.

While I love how Dicer was developed, I definitely think that the logistics of the episodes/the season itself were limited in how much they could show and how fast. If we had gotten a few more episodes in season 1, it DEFINITELY would have provided some leeway for slower, more coherent development.

I noticed that there have been quite a few Dicer scenes that were cut in a number of episodes. Now, I don't work in media production, and I understand there can be other reasons to do so, but I think that if they stopped focusing so much on things like Ferman being evil and doing evil Ferman things, we'd be able to see, you know, more of the couple that the show is literally about.

I believe in episode 14 and 15 (probably just 15, but I digress), there were scenes of Dicle digging up her wedding dress AND Dicer sleeping in the same bed again. Now I'm not sure WHY they were cut, but if it was for timing reasons I'm sure some other choices could have been made there.

you know what i love most about erkan’s confession? the fact that dicle didn’t immediately throw herself into his arms.

i also loved that she reminded him earlier about the divorce. when he asked her not to leave him, she basically pointed out that she’d trusted him once before and he’d handed her divorce papers.

and even before that, she reminded him that he was the one who told her what she felt wasn’t love

i loved those little moments because they felt like dicle was finally telling him: i loved you from the beginning. i trusted you from the beginning. you already had my heart. all of that was yours. he never had to win it. the reason he found himself begging her not to divorce him was because of his own choices. the reason she hesitated it was because, over time, he had damaged the trust she had placed in him.

YES YES YES all of this!!

as much as i love erkan (and trust me, i love him a lot 😭), i think one of the biggest things he had to overcome was shame. because there was definitely a period where he was embarrassed by dicle. maybe that’s hard to hear, but that’s honestly how it felt to me. part of his journey was accepting that the woman he loved wasn’t going to fit the image that his family, his social circle, or society expected. and oh my god, the scene where he covered up their photo when his friend came over? i was FUMING! i remember looking at the screen and thinking, “oh, you little idiot. because what exactly was the plan there? your friend was still going to ask why you were so desperate to explain to dicle that you hadn’t kissed burcin. covering the photo wasn’t going to make that any less suspicious💀 that’s actually one of the reasons i appreciate erkan’s development. he didn’t just have to admit that he loved dicle - he had to stop caring what other people thought about the fact that he loved dicle.

Yes exactly! It really took almost the full length of the season for him to 1) understand and accept his feelings for Dicle were not just out of obligation, and 2) understand that she isn't the picture-perfect or socially acceptable wife that people would expect him to be seen with.

He really had to overcome a lot of egotistical and social/status barriers, especially midway through the season. I really enjoyed watching his development there! It was definitely hard to watch at times, but it's purposeful.

Someone asked when Erkan fell in love with Dicle and when he realized it, but honestly, I find Dicle's journey much more interesting and far less obvious.

Because Dicle loved Erkan from the very beginning and she saw him as her destiny. But I feel like her love was tested far more than his ever was. At the end of the day, Erkan always knew she loved him. No matter how confused he was about his own feelings, he knew that if he said the word, if he chose her, she would be there.

Dicle never had that luxury. She had to listen to him say their marriage wasn't real. She had to watch him with other women, especially Burcin. She had to endure the hostility of his family, the engagement party, the wedding plans, kisses with Burcin, all while believing she would never truly be the one he chose.

And even near the end, she still seemed convinced that he stayed with her out of pity rather than love. Honestly, that's one of the hardest things for me to forgive Erkan for. Dicle loved him so completely that she was willing to let him go if it made him happy. She was willing to sacrifice everything for him (even her life), and yet he left her doubting herself and his feelings for so long. The scene with Nilüfer especially broke my heart, when Dicle said that she and Civan were something people should be ashamed of. After everything she'd been through, she genuinely believed she wasn't enough.

And that's why i find Dicle's love story so fascinating. In the beginning, her love felt almost like faith. She loved the idea of Erkan, the dream of him, the destiny she had built around him. But by the end, after all the disappointments, heartbreaks and moments where she could have walked away, she was choosing him with open eyes. she knew his flaws, his mistakes, the ways he had hurt her, and she loved him anyway.

How do you see the evolution of Dicle's feelings throughout the series? When do you think her love stopped being a childhood dream and became a conscious choice? Because for me, the Dicle from episode 1 and the Dicle from the finale both love Erkan, but they are not loving him in the same way at all.

I hope this makes sense because i'm not sure i'm explaining it very well.

The way you described Dicle's feelings here was actually so perfect, and I agree with every single aspect. I literally could not have explained it better myself.

Her fantasies surrounding the reality of her marriage with Erkan definitely crashed and burned when she found out about the petition for divorce. A portion of her innocence died when that happened, because she trusted Erkan so blindly and confidently, only to be left with the one thing he said he wouldn't do to her.

I don't think Dicle could ever NOT love Erkan, even if she tried. However, it would have been after that moment that Dicle would have had to consciously make choices for Erkan's benefit, even after he had betrayed her trust. That in itself is loving someone selflessly.

That's what makes late-s1 Dicer so special to me. They love each other so deeply and intimately that they would let each other go in an instant if it meant keeping each other safe and happy. Especially Erkan, who was finally willing to relinquish his need to protect her and be in close proximity if it meant she would be free and content.

We will reunite. As soon as possible, we will reunite...

You have to leave, Dicle. No, you can't. Don't do it. I shot him. I did it. You have to leave.
