Ladies, when your ex is getting married, resist the urge to be whimsically dramatic and show him how untameable you are. Don't put on something semi-bridal, do your hair and stalk him outside his engagement party with that look. Just don't do stuff like this. This is how you reveal yourself to be a crazy person.

It’s how us women are
Very rude and hurtful of him to leave his fiance waiting in the car while he chats with his ex, and very rude of Carrie to seek out a chat with her ex when she knew his fiance was waiting in the car. At their engagement party. It probably ruined her day.

When it came to dating and relationships Carrie's morals weren't the best. She did what she wanted without regard to how it would affect others. This the same Carrie that cheated on Aiden and began an affair with that woman's husband. So rude is an understatement.
This here says it all. I think that Big really liked Carrie all along but she was too difficult. Carrie is the type of woman she'll never be satisfied, and Natasha she's more independant so she won't act needy with him. It's pretty simple. Then he got bored because deep down he craves drama too because he's not as stable of a person as he thinks he is. Needless to say Carrie and Big are a perfect match, but for all the wrong reasons. Really they both needed therapy instead of chasing relationships.

This should have been the end. However, think of all of the times after this that he disrespected her, including leaving her high and dry on their wedding day.

We are programmed to accept dysfunction from men.

Great writing on the show... all of her epiphanies about love were self centered, jealous, comparative, insecure. She tried hard to believe her own hype and to be strong. But really she was just a little girl and hoping this guy would love her back the same way. She became consumed with it because he didn't. Just like a real person in real life.

Actually it was Natasha who didn't act right. She saw that Big and Carry had loooooooots of unfinished business between them. Carry was abused by Big for a long time. And got discarded after years of stringing on. She felt hurt, and naturally had a surge to find out why he did it. Big didn't cut their cord either. He damaged both Carrie and Natasha. Typical narcissistic triangulation.

This is literally the only episode I've watched of the show. (I was surfing channels and stayed because of the movie references) Yesterday I saw posts on how Carrie was upset about Big leaving his ex-wife a million dollars and my thoughts went back to this episode along with a rather scathing sentiment: Carrie Bradshaw must have been full of herself to believe that she was in the same league as Katie Morosky. Or course, perhaps it's an unfair feeling to have, I don't watch the show after all.

She has a point though. He dated Carrie, even when he had access to a thousand young hot women, so he had to be attracted to her. That was never the issue. It was more about conflicting personalities and goals. Carrie is saying that if she was more complacent and "easier" for him to deal with, he might have chosen her. Sounds plausible to me.

She should have left him here forever. This scene was bold and good. All the things with him afterwards were mistakes and destroyed her inner peace
He never really loved her and she was too much into him, also they r from different social levels, for some ppl that means a lot. So it's nothing about being wild, what's wild in Carry? She's always forgiving, waiting him, ready to run as soon as he gives a sign and say "wanna have fun, I'm single again". She's also not complicated character, maybe a bit too dramatic😅, but nothing extra, so it's not like he couldn't understand her, he just didn't want to. But that's not nice truth, so she's choosing to believe in different ideas, kind of psychological protection. That's just not meant to be, no love, no good connection, only romance mostly in her imagination, and immature behaviour. He never thought about her serious and she created whole story in her head. But for series romantic line this dialog is much more matching, of course 😀 just not trustworthy for me.

I think the answer is that Big was never really into Carrie. She was his friends with benefits thing, a fling. There were many signs early on that he was not into her, but she ignored them all. For example, when he took her to a Chinese restaurant, where not so many people would see him with her, or the fact that he did not stop dating other women, after starting seeing her.

I just now realised how incredibly creepy Carrie is. She is wearing a white dress. I mean, I remembered it already, but I didn't think about the meaning. We don't make gala engagement celebrations in my country, but I've seen a lot of wedding portals, all suggesting that the future bride should be wearing a white cocktail dress. Someone as fashion-aware as Carrie, was very aware not only of the symbolism, but also of the fact Natasha might be wearing the exact same dress. And while Natasha is shown waiting in the car, Carrie is touching him! I mean, how creepy would it be if the genders were reversed! If the bride's ex boyfriend showed up uninvited to her engagement party, asking her questions about their relationship, touching her... her fiance would probably hit him in the next scene! And here we are supposed to root for Carrie!

You know that the character doesn’t choose the symbolism but the writers? They chose to portray her as the jilted bride, to drive the message home to the viewer. It was subtle enough, she didn’t show up in a long gown and a veil lol.

This scene gives me major "pick me" vibes from Carrie

@@CC-2020 Men will tell you they want women who are "trouble free," but they tend to keep returning to women who are "trouble." "The trouble with trouble is that it starts out as fun." Men keep remembering the "fun" and not the "trouble," so they stick out the relationship, living for the fun moments no matter how brief they are.

That's wrong. They marry the good ones and cheat on those poor women with the dramatic ones . And that stems from not truly accepting themselves , and their troubled past . They need therapy.😊😊

The only time Carrie didn't take a taxi to go home.
That was such an iconic scene and phase.
I loved that show. Didn't get into it till later..some people have had a mr BIG in their lives.
Deep down Big preferred Carrie but he married Natasha cause she is more model looking and therefore a "status symbol" for him. I live in Kensington in London and the same thing goes on even today - rich men marry model looking, tall and skinny women because they are seen as the ultimate accessory - and then often cheat on them behind their backs - exactly like Big did!!!

you should write a book
"I don't know, it just got so hard"- understatement of the year. She just HAD to stop & stare and he just HAD to go over to her, probably afraid that she would create a scene. And then Carrie has to get up in his face while Natasha watches her fixing his hair while staring into his eyes. Oh yeah she's a real prize, that one.
you were chasing him and were available. that turns rich men off. they want to 'buy' a girl

why wasn't it me? What a hard question to ask ourselves about it if we weren't chosen.. By the way she looks amazing!
Oh, yeah - Carrie is so wild and independent, acting like a fool, clinging to BIg like a limpet, always crying and nagging and trying to force him to pledge undying love. Actually, they deserved each other.
"Maybe He couldnt tame ME" 🤣 is the biggest lie ever come out of Carrie's little hypocrite's mouth. Stalked him to his mother's church, stalked his ex wife, stalked another of his wife, cheated on her boyfriend with him and humiliated his ex wife! Yea! Totally Youre so NOT wanna be tamed hahahah

Carrie looks so beautiful here.
It was Natasha who didn't act right. She saw that Big and Carrie had loooooooots of unfinished business between them. Carry was abused by Big for a long time. And got discarded after years of stringing on. She felt hurt, and naturally had a surge to find out why he did it. Big didn't cut their cord either. He damaged both Carrie and Natasha. Typical narcissistic triangulation.
This scene is TOO dramatic...just for Carrie. To Big, this scene is strange

I know this does not not have to do anything with this video, but i have a question! Does anyone have moments they hate carrie? Like the moment she brought mr big BIG MAC before he was about to move to frace and stared yelling at him when he was honest and said somenthing like,, I would not like you to move with me and changing your life and depend on this relationship in case somenthing happens?

I hated her when she needed money for her apartment and came at Charlotte for not offering her any. Especially when she realized she spent tens of thousands of dollars on shoes. She could have owned her apartment for that. She likes to imagine that she's free spirited and unique, but she's a total conformist drama queen. I still like the show though, lol.

These two hurt each other time and time again most of us would of walked away but sometimes theres a gravitational pull that you cannot control and the heart is a tricky thing at the end these two ended up together and married so that goes to show you no matter what can happen when you love someone if it was meant to be then it is meant to be.....funny every time I pass this fountain on 59 and 5th by the plaza on my way to go run in Central Park I always think of these two lol
