I don’t understand it when people say that Carrie was also the problem bc she was anxiously attached bc like …. maybe she had a moment or two but for the most part it was absolutely Big being such a selfish prick and then justifying it w “ohhh I have commitment issues bc my last marriage fell through” umm ur a 45 year old BABY actually

#and like at every turn Big was so awful to her and she would justify it w “I’m also the problem”#Girl no #like when he refused to show her in public for the longest time #Or when he literally dropped a bomb that he was going to Paris out of NOWHERE #Refusing to meet her friends #Talking to her on his schedule and his schedule only #Being like “I wanna do things at my own pace” okay but that’s not how a relationship comprising two ppl works #And then marrying a brown eyed brunette socialite #The antithesis of Carrie #Was a transparently bad Big moment in the show but still #The show treads around in circles w regards to how to view Big #Bc they obviously wanna paint him as an unhealthy avoidant and also downright selfish asshole #But they also wanna be like “he’s j too scared to give her the keys to his house bc of his other relationships”#Like he literally played her like a FIDDLE #only to have them end up together ????? I will never understand that ending #I think it’s such weak writing #In real life avoidant men who also don’t want u that much won’t end up w u I fear #I don’t really understand the narrative weighing Carrie w the responsibility of adjusting to Big’s “trauma” and fixing him #He did that for her maybe once in the show but even when he’s being affectionate to her it comes from #A selfish place #Like he wants her attention or wants sex or whatevs like it’s never bc he’s truly in love w Carrie
