Velvet

I feel the most sorry for Christina, she is being used by Alberto. It was wrong of her father to make their marriage a condition of the investment; it was wrong of Ana to tell Alberto to marry Christina and then not let him go; it was wrong of Alberto to pursue the relationship with Ana while engaged to Christina. Poor Christina, I hope she ends up with Raoul in the end, they are better suited for each other.

Ana is driving me crazy! She tells Alberto to marry Cristina, but doesn't expect them to share any affection, then jilts him at the altar. She has got to make up her mind what she wants him to do and live with the consequences.

exactly, what did she expect? That Christina wasn't going to expect anything out of the relationship? But then Ana wants to see the love of her life be successful too, even if it means sacrificing BIG, lol! For example, I love my husband so much, it would pain me a lot to see him fail. Alberto is a man that knows what he wants! He only wants to please Ana! Everything that he does, he does it with Ana in mind. He never gave up for the longest time. Actually, I have to re-watch season 3 to remember the ending in detail. Netflix is taking a long time to add season 4, so long that I had to move on to other shows like KS &S, LOL! By the way, how do you guys like Ana's hair vs. Christina's? I read that the actors in the show got to pick their own hairstyles and clothing....

This reminds me of the Story of Sarah and Abraham. Sarah tells Abraham to take her servant as a concubine so he can have an heir, then gets mad when the relationships get complicated. I cannot imagine how Velvet is going to end happily; right now, in the middle of season 1, Ana's heart is already broken, Alberto is torn between the two, or Cristina will be crushed. I am limiting myself to one episode a day, or nothing else will get done!

LOL, keep watching! That Christina actor is really good dramatic actress! I actually think she's a better actor than the girl who plays Ana. Many times, I kept wanting Ana to look more enraged, but she falls short of my expectations, lol. But I don't know why, I still keep rooting for Ana and Alberto. Because like KS &S, I keep going back to the beginning of their love story

I think Ana didn't act more enraged because she knew she had to keep her feelings secret, she also knew she was to blame for Alberta being engaged to Cristina. Cristina has no reason to hide her feelings, she is engaged to the man of her dreams. Ana, on the other hand, must pretend that there is nothing wrong, especially around Cristina. Ana can't even let on that she is sad, how would she explain it to her? I think the one person who is really to blame for all the heartache is Cristina's father, he didn't even ask if Alberto loved his daughter, loved someone else, or wanted to marry her. What a pompous fool to think that he could ensure his daughter's happiness by backing Alberto into a corner? Then he is enraged when he founds out about another woman.

I will not be as heartbroken if Ana and Alberto don't end up together as I was over Seyit and Sura because Ana pushed Alberto into Cristina's arms to save the store, so she knew she could lose him. Sura was so innocent and naive, she didn't know that when Seyit said they would be together forever that his father would most likely not approve. I am more sorry for Cristina, she is the one being lied to, the one who is innocent.

Christina showed her true colors in the last episode of season 1 and I no longer feel sorry for her. She was such as prima dona when Ana needed to leave and she ordered her to stay. Then I thought about all the times she did exactly what she wanted even when Alberto objected. She is such a spoiled brat in the end; not perfect at all. She steamrolls everyone and didn't even stand by Raoul.
