VIVEK OBEROI SPEAKS ABOUT TOXIC RELATIONSHIPS

Vivek Oberoi recently appeared on Anas Boukhash's podcast. During the interaction, he opened up about breakups and toxic relationships. He said, “Each serious relationship teaches you. It leaves you with something. The bad breakups, the really toxic relationships teach you your patterns. They teach you what you should stay away from. Like I discovered that some of us have a hero complex, where you come in like a knight in shining armour, and say, ‘I will take care of this for you’.”

Calling it exhausting, he added, “It’s not easy to constantly be on this pedestal, and live up to the expectations that you’ve created for yourself. Then you make the other person used to, if they’re not manipulating you, to become used to expecting that of you. And now you can’t change. You can’t just say, ‘We’re equals, let’s carry the load together’, because that’s what makes a good, honest relationship. That’s what I learned from toxic relationships, it’s so important to break the pattern.”

Vivek also revealed that he was always honest in his relationships. “I was never dishonest. I wouldn’t commit to somebody and leave. I would be straightforward and tell them I am not looking for anything serious. I stayed friends with a lot of my casual girlfriends, and a lot of them even came to my wedding,” he said.

Vivek is now married to Priyanka Alva. They got married in 2010.
