I choose to believe we stumbled into Aiden mid breakup spiral. Dramatic haircut? (check) Completely change up your wardrobe? (check) Proclaim yourself to be in your villain era? (probably check)
The audacity for Carrie lmaoooo. When she sent that "I miss you" email I was like "excuse you???" She cheated! She certainly wasn't missing him when she was shacking it up with Big! Give me a break. She was being so entitled too! "That's all I get?" Girl!!!!! He IS NOT obligated to forgive you!!!
I loved your take on how Carrie exploits Aiden's inability to set clear boundaries to her advantage. I've dealt with a couple of impromptu visits like this very recently (my ex is not cruel, but he struggles with taking a hard look at himself just like Carrie), and your rationale was really informative and made perfect sense to me. Thanks. Looking forward to more!
I think that Carrie saying “that’s all I get?” Is the absolute personification of her narcissism. I don’t think she cared if he came up to her, or threw over something, broke down crying… or her own favorite thing to do… run off dramatically… it’s the fact that she got no reaction at all that bothers her. Narcissists just want that sweet ole reaction.
Would you consider doing these type of videos for desperate housewives? I absolutely love your content! Your analysis is spot on and remarks make me laugh (sometimes out loud even):))
I have such a hard time liking Carrie. Trash friend, trash girlfriend. Using Miranda to try to get Aidan 'back' was so awful- who needs a friend like Carrie who is so hell-bent on fueling her own ego and her own desires with no regard for anyone elses.
V thank you for unknowingly saving me thousands in therapy 😂 I just turned 25 and as a FORMER Carrie , I appreciate you so much I wish I would’ve heard all your insights 5 yrs ago 😭 anyways luv you !!😊
Ahh, thank you so much for uploading SATC video today, biiiss. I'm sick and laying in bed and about to watch this whole video. What a treat! P.S. I have already watched all the other SATC videos.
Yeah, I can't say I agree with your points. People often change when big shit happens to them and getting cheated on especially by someone you care for will induce some anger. I liked Aiden and I really don't think his being nice had anything to do with extortion
I've been watching your SATC analysis and I always think how much crap this show put into my head when I was watching it as a teenager. Because back then I liked it and I did not see anything wrong in Carrie's or Steve's behaviour
Carrie has the main character syndrome. I know she IS the main character but she was never a good friend, a good girlfriend etc and expects everyone to bow down to her for simply existing. She didn't deserve Aidan, she deserved Big and the lifetime of confusion to the last point of him having Natasha in the will. I don't like the AJLT storyline with her getting her third chance with Aidan
Is she getting her third chance with Aidan in AJLT, really?!! I did not watch past the first season... It's like... are you sure there are couple of millions people in NY? Feels like there are only 15 or smth
yeah like I am also a non smoker, when I was single I always tried to date other non-smokers but I might taste a cigarillo every now and then... as in, every five or six years or so :P
I disagree with the concept that closure is bad, and people who want it are clinging to a delusion about getting back together. Breakups are complicated, and the narratives you walk away with can and do affect your future relationships. Why make that up based on what you think the other person was thinking when you can have clarifying conversations that can actually help you to move on more easily? It's always helped me. Even if the conversation didn't go the way I hoped, it still provided clarity that aided me in moving forward with a clear mind and heart.
I liked Aidan’s shouting “you broke my heart”. I think it reflects well how heartbroken he was and angry he is currently for her not understanding how badly he was hurt. From a male perspective I could see myself doing the same. He’s screaming, do you not understand? Do you not get it? You broke my heart
Election week in Romania. Will I listen to 1h of political debate deciding the future of our country? Nope. Will I listen to yet another one of your 🔥 debates on SATC? Hell yea!
I think the 'closure' thing really depends on the people involved and the situation. I've experience mutual benefit from talking about the relationship post-breakup and reflecting on things. If both of you are capable of listening and explaining things from an open and empathetic position, then I think it's very beneficial. Iirc, therapist and professor Dr Kirk Honda (Psychology In Seattle) also says this can be helpful, and there's nothing strange in itself to want that. Being broken up with can be confusing and come out of nowhere, and people describe all the time spending a lot of time trying to figure out what they did wrong, or why they weren't good enough. Unlike the one who did the breaking up, they've not had the time to mull over the relationship and why it can't work out. I've only been the one who does the breaking up, but I still find these talks beneficial for me also. I don't like leaving someone confused, and I do like to be understood. If I can have a safe space with the person to bust some harmful narratives in their head, and give them the opportunity to understand what happened, then that's a good investment to me. Again, obviously this depends a lot on the people involved and if they're capable of such conversations. If you've been together with someone a while, by then you usually have a grasp on whether or not they are. A pretty good example was my second relationship. He came here from Poland, and he was living with me (in my mind, temporarily) in my apartment. When I finally mustered the courage to break up with him, there were several days we were still stuck with each other before he could get on a plane back home. In that time, he could process the reality of our breakup and we had the opportunity to have some conversation where he was calm and open to what I had to say about why this relationship wasn't working for me. He was still sad sometimes before he went home, but he did understand that we clearly weren't a match, and that was okay. But then we've people like Carrie :P whose motives are not actually to have understanding or closure. She's not here to learn.
Carrie Bradshaw is the EPITOMY of the Only Child. Self-absorbed (in the nicest possible way), manipulative (how could she NOT get what she wants) and emotionally immature (her needs, her wants, right away). I say this with a certain amount of compassion and understanding, being the epitomy of an only child, myself, with years of therapy and hindsight into my own unpleasant behavior.
I love what you are saying about grand gestures. In my last relationship I was struggling trying to explain to my partner that I love grand gestures but only when the relationship goes well and it is done solely to show love, as opposed to expect something from it when done during a fight or something. Like he proposed to me after a fight as a grand gesture.
2:10 hell no! Once my exs are exs im not socializing unless we had a strong friendship before hand. I would look at it like carrie did. It was a show, look how good i am without you.
Sometimes, when people truly love someone and get hurt, they make big changes-hitting the gym, updating their style, or changing their appearance. Heartbreak can push people to reinvent themselves, both as a reaction and a step forward. I think Aiden changed because he was genuinely heartbroken, not because he wasn’t nice.
This got recommended to me even though I don’t watch the show. Just wanted to say the actor who plays Aidan (John Corbett) is AMAZING in another 90s tv show called Northern Exposure.
Definitely the cycle of manipulating/being manipulated. Carrie chasing Aiden down and as per the cold harsh reality that he is number 2 choice. Especially as after Big dies then Aiden is given (and only then) pole position and a revelation from Ms. Bradshaw to Miranda that her ‘sexy time’ is now oh so much better than even with Big! Really??!! Pity she didn’t realise this before clapping cheeks with the man who chased HER down for exactly the same reason: it gives me a warm glow that I can strut in and out of your life by giving you less than zero. Fact!
Carrie was awful to all the other characters, but what she did to Aiden is pure evil. The entitlement, abuse and manipulation is disgusting to watch. I hate how the writers made her so idolized by Aiden throughout the entire show and the second movie.
Interesting. I was always convinced that the writers of SATC must be men who hate women and revel in showing women to be superficial, self-absorbed Barbies with shoe obsessions. The dialogues were cringe-worthy.
@@KTBEverlastingshe just might be depressed or going through some self-hatred thing 🤷🏽♀️. Such an immature comment tho, right? I kinda feel bad for her not being able to troll better.
Carrie cheated on Aidan, confessed it to him, and then he dumped her.. sounds like closure to me!

Hahahahah

Miranda turned into Carrie in the revival
I am soooooo excited to watch this when chilling in bed later. Happy days to all who feel the same. These uploads keep me going 🥳
Literally what I'm doing right now! Cheers 🤗
@ When we got something as good as this to watch and chill with, I am a happy camper 🙌, sounds like you the same 👍
Carrie missed once again the validation she got from Aiden. Not him as a person... it's pathetic 😮
V thank you for unknowingly saving me thousands in therapy 😂 I just turned 25 and as a FORMER Carrie , I appreciate you so much I wish I would’ve heard all your insights 5 yrs ago 😭 anyways luv you !!😊
I love your videos. My husband has become so invested in SATC and it’s made me so happy.
Ahh, thank you so much for uploading SATC video today, biiiss. I'm sick and laying in bed and about to watch this whole video. What a treat!

To be fair, it was a cigar ☺️ not quite a cigarette, but still pretty much what you said. It’s his version of “bad boy”.

@katren5655 OMG I am so sorry for spoilers 🫣
Yes, it's true and it's an overkill really. I just like watching trainwrecks
I think he was smoking a celebratory cigar. Completely different from starting to smoke cigarettes.
yeah like I am also a non smoker, when I was single I always tried to date other non-smokers but I might taste a cigarillo every now and then... as in, every five or six years or so :P
She’s just pretending to be Mr.Big and trying to play the distant jerk who jerks people around. But she’s not avoidant she’s anxious.
This is my sign to clean the kitchen, isn’t it 🫣🥲😂💜💜💜💜

Carrie sucks.
She yanked him around here so much, it makes me sad for.....everyone

My ex tried to stay friends and I said no thanks.. what’s the point?
Queen is back!
Love your videos! Sometimes I even wish they were longer. Could listen to you for hours.

Heartbreak can push people to reinvent themselves, both as a reaction and a step forward. I think Aiden changed because he was genuinely heartbroken, not because he wasn’t nice.

26:45 LMAO
I agree with everything you say... can you balance more clips with your commentary please?
Aiden was smoking a celebratory cigar. It's not that deep...lol
20:02 girl I was curious and paused to read it.
For a writer she's a bit too dumb in writing 😂
Ahah you know I did it also🤣
Drake = Aiden
Aidan change? Guys don’t change. That is how we know the writer of the show is a woman.
