[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the husbands/men except Harry and Smith Jerrod were TRASH. Especially Big and Steve. [b]Effing STEVE[/b]!!![/quote]

TELL IT PP!!!!!!!!! Steve was such a step down for Miranda. She settled in a ridiculous way, all because she got knocked up (which you’d think she wouldn’t do, if her prior actions on the show served as a prediction of future ones).

I also agree with another PP who said that Aidan was a pushover. Honestly couldn’t see his appeal. [/quote]
Aww. I liked Steve! He was so sweet.

Unpopular opinion but I liked Trey and I think all of their issues were caused by Charlotte. She could have avoided that whole dumpster fire of a marriage if she hadn't gotten married to a guy she knew for a month.[/quote]

I liked Steve, too

I think it was clear that Charlotte jumped into marrying Trey because she thought that he checked all her boxes - only, she didn't know him well enough (or know herself well enough) to know what would be missing. [b]The whole thing was seeing her move from having this list of what she thought she wanted, that conformed to her idea of what a perfect life would look like, to falling in love with the slobbish Jewish guy who adored her and who she came to love.[/b][/quote]
Oh yes, that I agree with. Harry was adorable and I was glad she came to realize how special he was, even if he wasn't as handsome and refined as Trey. But the whole thing where Trey was some monster - I believe she said in that therapy session that he stole her ability to feel love - lady, you're the one who wanted him to propose after like three weeks.

Also I'm not a super sexual person by any means but even I think you need to have sex with someone at least once before you promise God and the state of NY to only have sex with him for the rest of eternity. So, I did agree with Bunny when she came for Charlotte during the divorce settlement hearings. Yes, Charlotte did rush into marriage and no, she didn't take it seriously. She rushed into it after he bought her a Cartier watch, she cheated on him, she asked him to separate, and then only wanted to get back together after they had sex. I loved Charlotte as a character but the way she handled the entire marriage was pathetic. Should have just never gotten into that, girl!

Anywho, back to Steve. He was adorable! Kind of dorky looking and certainly not as ambitious as Miranda but he was a really upstanding guy. I always cry when I'm watching reruns and they air the episode (it's like one of the last few episodes) where his mom develops dementia and he takes care of her (and Miranda does, too, of course). I don't think he was a bum who mooched off her, I think they were just very different. She came from uptight Main Line parents and he was the son of a couple alcoholics from Queens. Just different backgrounds.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk?[/quote]

I totally agree with you re Steve.  I know several women who are partners at Big 4 consulting firms with husbands who are SAHD or have unsexy, non-high-paying jobs. They are all super Type A women who married nice laid back guys that are hands on with the kids and happy to run the household instead of chasing careers. None of those women "settled".  [/quote]
