[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some hot takes:

Misogynistic Hate of Carrie:

Upon my rewatch, now in my late thirties, I have so much empathy for poor Carrie! She was stuck in a toxic relationship with a narcissistic man who kept her at arms length. She was not perfect and found it difficult to break away from their trauma bond. Why do us women hate her so much for not being perfect or making perfect decisions? This is a larger conversation about the perfectionism we hold women to. Why cannot we appreciate a complex, immature woman who makes bad decisions?

Aiden actually WAS a good fit for her:

Also the happiest we have seen her with a man on the show is Aiden. She is so relaxed and comfortable and safe and happy. He fits in with her friends, she is a regular NYer having fun with her friends and her boyfriend. Their friendship group is cute!

With Big...they never had a real relationship. He was sleeping with her and viewed her from a casual lens and she kept overanalyzing their interactions trying to fit them into early stages of a real romantic relationship.

[b]The only reason she turns down Aiden is due to extreme PTSD from the mistreatment from Big and low self esteem[/b]

Charlotte and Trey:

I think Charlotte was being hysterical and called it quits too soon in her marriage. Trey felt overwhelmed with the infertility and wanted some time to feel normal again but she was steamrolling him in her race to have a baby!

She doesn't turn him down because of "PTSD." She turns him down because she thinks she can bat above her weight. Which she can't. [/quote]
