If I Tell, I Fall in Love

Overview

Selçuk and Zeynep's university romance led to an early marriage, but jealousy soured their relationship. Selçuk, protective and controlling, disallowed Zeynep from pursuing a career, pushing her into a cycle of shopping and household chores. Over time, Selçuk's affection waned, prompting him to seek separation. Feeling undervalued, Zeynep agreed to divorce, negotiating for a car, a house, and a monthly alimony of 4,000 lira. Eager to finalize their split, Selçuk quickly accepted her terms, and the couple parted ways, leaving behind their once-promising love story.
