Why would Masood have a problem with Shabnam dating Kush?
It makes no sense if you consider the Masood family's history. How would Shabs having a boyfriend be such a problem? Mas and Zainab came to accept Syed being gay and embraced Christian into the family. Their daughter being in a relationship is hardly going to be the end of the world.
Moreover Masood, though he's a decent guy, is hardly a saint given his past problems with drinking and gambling. Or is Shabnam simply assuming that he will disapprove? |

Didn't Masood try and get Shabnam and kush get together in the first place ? so what were seeing now makes no sense.

It's quite a messy nonsensical storyline to be honest Shabnam should know that Masood wouldn't give a toss. Therefore I don't give a toss.
Why has Stacey forgotten that her ex boyfriend the rapist is the father of Shabnam's child. Shabnam seems to not care either. EastEnders' timing has become piss poor. |

Shabnam probably has some religious hangup about her relationship and that's what concerns her. She's conflicted about it and therefore does not want to admit she's not perfect to her father.

I think it might be because she doesn't want her extremely religious persona to be tainted? Maybe she thinks if people know she's in a relationship with Kush, who isn't religious, they'd think she didn't take her religion seriously?
That's my guess anyway |

I think it's strange the way they've done the storyline. Shabnam and Kush should have got together and then he could have been the one that heard the baby reveal when she was struggling to let him in to her life (blah blah), she could have said that she didn't know who the father was so that could have been revealed separately to Stacey.
I thought they'd revealed it as they did to link with the Linda rape bit there's been no suggestion from Shabnam that Dean raped her has there? So why throw the story away like they did in the midst of two big storylines coming to a bit of a climax? |

Wouldn't Kush as he's Iranian be a Shia Muslim?

I thought I'd missed something along the way, Shabnam not wanting to tell Masood doesn't make any sense he likes Kush this secrecy is getting annoying to watch now

I thought they might make it a Shia-Sunni thing but they seem to have not bothered with that at all. but surely newly "devout" Shabnam would prefer a Sunni, no??

I can't stand Shabnam. She has to be the most annoying character on the square at the moment, in my opinion.
Masood wouldn't mind about Shabnam and Kush - as an earlier post said, he had tried to set them up before. Plus, he and Kush are good friends so would know that he's a good bloke. As for religion, Masood and Jane hooked up for a while so he can hardly preach about that to her. |

Shbanam is odd
She didn't mind shagging Dean in the toilets, having a secret baby and them dumping it But she won't have people know she is in a relationship. |

Disappointed was the word she used. Now, I think she likes the "naughtiness" of hiding from her family - much like she used to hide going clubbing with Carly and Dawn from Mas and Zee. |

Its not the most scintillating premise for drama is it?
I do like Shush though.

This puts the issues into perspective a little better. It sounds as though Masood is upset and disappointed that Shabnam and Kush have been lying about their relationship, not that he disapproves of Kush. But have they? I don't recall an instance in which Shabnam or Kush have outright lied to Masood about being couple. (They have to others, but not to Masood.) Unless Masood expects Shabnam to tell him when she's dating someone. |

If he can't handle her not telling him that she's doing the dance with no pants with Kush, he'll spontaneously combust when he discovers that she had a bunk up in the bogs with Dean and gave the baby away!

That's my guess anyway ETA: I think Masood would be more shocked about Shabnam getting pregnant and giving up her baby. I personally think Masood wouldn't mind Kush dating Shabnam as he likes Kush, perhaps he wanted to hear it first rather from someone from the Square. What I am interested in, is what is this bombshell Kush is going to drop on Shabnam next week ? We know his wife died, so it can't be her coming back from the dead. Perhaps, he has a child but he couldn't look after her/him and his parents or wife's parents are looking after the child. |
