Carrie and Big are both selfish, quite shallow people who thrive on the (sexual) chemistry they undenieably share rather than a deep trusting, loving connection. They are pretty good for each other tbh.

[@officeaddict33]

No, Carrie was willing to FULLY commit for him. He was not willing to do the same for her.

[@notthefather3919]

How was Carrie seflish when it came to big? She was with Aiden when she cheated with him, but even she told Miranda she's different with him.

[@clashfan2875]

Couldn't agree more, I know a lot of people wanted her to be with Aiden but honestly, Aiden did not deserve her level of bullshit. Carrie and Big were made for each other.

[@desmonddaly3399]

So true. I love the show but damn Carrie is shallow as hell.

[@fourthgirl]

Carrie and Big are exactly the same. Men never buy a correct gift for their women. He took her to a party with mature, intelligent people and she behaved like a 30-something brat and went to the club instead. Big tells Carrie church was a thing for he and his mom. She invades that privacy to make it about her. And frankly her friends are enablers of that behavior.

[@vanillafountainx]

To be fair, Carrie agreeing for him to come to Aidan’s country house was just as bad

I think they deserved each other. They also had such great chemistry. People say they wish Carrie ended up with Aiden, but she was always horrible to him. They were both completely different and he was too good for her. In the second movie, where they kiss, I thought that was ridiculous. Aiden isn't the type of guy to cheat with another guy's wife/partner, even if that same guy did it to him. Just my thoughts.

[@mirawenya]

Aiden was such a sweet guy. He needed a sweet non-drama girl. They weren't a good fit. Mr Big and Carrie are perfect to me. They both have huge flaws, but they match.

I didn’t think they were equally yoked, Carrie liked to be out on the town and he liked to eat kfc and watch TV. They had a sweetness between them but she was often bored with him. Big was the glitz and glamour that she craved, he was just the bad boy type that most women love.

[@lenawagenfuehr53]

[@farhatamin4302]

Mr.Big is the toxic man who makes you forget yourself and become more invested in him. Ofcourse, Carrie had major flaws of going back to an emotionally abusive relationship that wasn't right for her, but she never learned, and fed Big's ego when he needed it. Big took it gladly, and knew how to twist Carrie's vulnerable states and emotions. This is what I call falling in love with the wrong person entirely. It's toxic not only for you in emotion, but at times destructive and violent. Definitely watch out for these signals, just because a man is broken and cold does not mean YOU have to fix him or put up with his irrational behaviour. There's a difference between sympathizing and caring for someone who genuinely needs it and someone who takes it for granted. Never destroy yourself for a person EVER. As for the show, the lessons learnt were pretty accurate in reality. I've seen people who have been in these relationships and who are still in this loop.

[@taneeshathomas2090]

Farhat Amin facts

[@debangananeogi9093]

Beautifully written! 👏👌✨

[@sarasamaletdin4574]

I disagree. Big does a lot wrong but I don’t think he ever tries to manipulate her into anything. He is not deliberately trying to do these things that upset her, they are just different in many ways and he is not good at opening up. And like with leaving the wedding, he was more intimidated by the big thing the wedding had become. Carrie didn’t include him at all in the planning and ignored how uncomfortable he was. He changed his mind too and returned. It is was still bad but the point is that he didn’t try to manipulate and hurt her but they were on a different page and in the moment he felt he just could not sincerely go through it.

[@farhatamin4302]

While you do open up this perspective, I still feel that Big made more mistakes. Especially with Carrie she tries so hard, at times too hard which causes Big to back out sometimes. But, nobody else does that for him and it feels like Carrie is being taken granted for. About the wedding, I agree. Carrie let it get bigger than themselves, not taking in Big's side of the plate. In addition, it always seems that they have major communication gap and are barely on the same pages. Well, Big may not have tried to manipulate her but his actions came off as pure manipulation to me. Then again it's all about perspective, to each their own.

[@nnnnnnnnnnn7292]

Sara Samaletdin He IS manipulating Carrie all the time. His major attitude is "Do as it suits me or you are out". This is one the most horrible things to say to a person who is in love. Of course it was up to Carrie to figure out that he had no real feelings for her. And she never had. But the point is that he is not trying to meet her half way, he does not care about her needs. It is a huge manipulation scheme of serving him. No he does not force her to be with him in words. But he manipulates her with giving and taking away some affection which hooks another person in emotionally and is a real cold-blooded abuse.

[@shagirl93]

While Mr. Big is definitely the worst, I found myself actually dating the poor man's Mr. Big. I can tell you, he is even more frustrating because at least the real Mr. Big could afford dinner.

[@dipikajames4998]

That's exactly what I was thinking. People keep bashing big, but in reality he never made false commitments or promises to gain something for her. He was always clear about the things that he wants. Carrie on the other side got insecure and needy when he didn't follow the script she had in her mind.

[@dipikajames4998]

I hated Big with Carrie, but I loved the way the actor played him. I almost feel like I would've liked Big better if he and Carrie were just friends because he was so entertaining to watch. But, I hated the way Big and Carrie's relationship went a lot of the time. I kind of wish she had ended up alone and happy with herself because part of her character was the "eternal single girl" thing and I really didn't love any of her boyfriends. However, I think in the end him and Carrie were always going to end up together because she was comfortable in that relationship. Anyways, the romantic in me wants to believe that the marriage worked out, and he managed to get over his bad boyfriend tendencies despite six seasons and two movies showing us otherwise.

[@jessicalynn8607]

I had a Mr Big in my life. I was younger. I wasn't strong enough. Too scared to lose him, too insecure at times and I dealt with certain behaviors. After years and years with him, once he realized other hot guys wanted me he changed and ultimately our last year or so together he just kept pressing marriage on me. Of course it's a long story. And at that point of course that was everything I always wanted with him but I was too hurt for so long over the years at the way I was treated and also mad at myself for allowing myself to be treated that way. We had a huge fight and 3 months later he proposed to someone else. Needless to say a slap in the face after 8 years together. Much therapy needed. Although this was over 10 years ago, it can still sting sometimes just with everything that all happened. But I've learned so much during that time in my life and of course after. As our mutual friends say...I DODGED A BULLET!!!

[@giaelie3283]

The only real parting gift from any bad relationship is the lessons you learn. (Especially if all the gifts he gave you smashed with a hammer and left at his doorstep.. But I digress..) You learn the behavior you will absolutely Not tolerate from anyone who claims to Love you.. ..and God willing, you learn to spot the warning signs early enough to lessen the hurt and not waste your time. But one thing I wish women would learn is that there is no such thing as "investing in a relationship". No Matter how long you've been together, if you are miserable..the only thing you're investing in... is your own misery.

Mr. Big was always the most selfish emotionally abusive man to Carrie. Carrie was always his punching bag and emotional support ONLY when he was feeling weak and vulnerable. Carrie had healthy true love with Aiden but she was too addicted to the pain and back and forth BS Big dealt her and couldn't appreciate the relationship she had with Aiden. AND ONLY when Big found himself OLD and ALONE did he finally decide to get real with Carrie- but his true nature reared its ugly head when he humiliated her in the most disgusting act of all- leaving her at the altar on her wedding day. She went out on a limb to trust him again and believe he had changed his commitment-phobia towards her. He had no trouble committing to his THREE OTHER BRIDES. Carrie couldn't see past the fantasy she had of Mr. Big, always failing to believe him when he showed who he truly was. They should NOT have ended up together- their sick relationship sets a BAD example for women everywhere. Do not accept this kind of treatment ladies. It may be painful to let go- but let go you MUST!!!

He only wanted Carrie when she was involved with someone else ~ as if the game was to see if he could get her back & how long it would take for him to do it 😂

[@msfriendsfan4ever788]

There is also when he was constantly trying to come inbetween Carrie and her boyfriends, when he couldn’t leave her alone.

[@officeaddict33]

They mention that in the video! Pay attention.

[@beverlyanngilbert4794]

He didnt even want to introduce her to his mother. She and Miranda sneaked to the church so she could see her. And then when he introduced them he didnt say this is the woman that I have been dating. Could never understand why she was so enamored with him. Maybe because he was so emotionally unavailable it was a challenge to her.

[@mykindoflibrarian]

The duck purse wasn’t that bad. I always saw it as him seeing wives of his coworkers/friends etc. carrying them and assuming it was a fashionable trend.

[@thalia7104]

...which it was. It was a Swarovski embellished Judith Leiber Purse, which is still expensive today, if you like the style. Back then they were all the rage and really popular. I wonder why Carrie, with her extravagant and mixed wardrobe, didn't like the purse. It would have worked well with some of her outfits!

[@TuomariMuller]

That first one... Really. I didn't expect my husband to know my style when we had been together for less than two years. Gosh, it's just a bag. They had an on/off-relationship, not close friendship.

[@gaesimp__]

Yeah seriously

[@helveeta]

I met Mr. Big in a starbucks in Budapest!!! Best celeb encounter ever!

[@DearPrudence19]

I'm sorry but the Duck Purse shouldn't be on here. Its a gift, no one should ever criticizes gifts, that's just being petty!

[@Ohkeh640]

They were trying to say he had no idea what she liked

[@starkman78]

Sophistikatieb right? How could he have possibly thought that a fashion obsessed city girl would want a freaking JUDITH LEIBER PURSE??? 🤔

[@tamaraaa993]

The purse thing is so stupid. what if he has no idea what women like to wear and he sees all those ugly purses in his circle and thinks "oh ok i'll buy her that one, i guess it's trendy" but i still liked him more than Aidan, they were all touchy and always kissing and holding hands like teenagers ew

[@catherinedean3796]

I had a Mr. Big in college. He was emotionally stunted and withdrawn and would have emotional breakdowns to play on my caring empathetic nature, but the minute I needed any kind of affirmation, "wtf, why would you think I love you and want to be in a relationship with you, what made you think that" but then the next day he'd have another crisis and I'd be right back at his side. Even when I was breaking up with him because he had told two exes that he still loved them while in my house drinking my liquor, he still managed to get the last word and say "well I don't take breaks so I guess you're ending things, so bye" the conversation lasted literally 30 seconds and he immediately went and knocked up another girl. After once last meeting to exchange stuff two months later, I vowed to never speak to him again and I kept true to my word. BULLET DODGED, but that's something that takes a while to get over lol

[@briestoll]

This worst thing about this is how many time i have heard women refer to their toxic relationship and say that he's her "Big" . This isn't a good relationship in any way .

[@o.p.rajput655]

I never hated - hated Big. yeah, he does piss you off at times, but he was always practically clear about everything he wanted, which may I say, he never really expected anything from Carrie. it was just about the timing, Carrie was so desperate to find "love" and "the guy" for her, that everything big did was insufficient and that led to their fights. And although i absolutely adore the other girls, its hard for me to believe that they never saw this.

[@gaesimp__]

Yeah exactly

[@vegasgirl3538]

They did see it. Carrie and Miranda had a huge fight in a thrift shop when Carrie told her she was seeing Big again.

[@nnnnnnnnnnn7292]

Christopher Brown That was a political context to make Russians look bad. ) There was no slap. Alexandr was definately wrong for her. But he never slapped her.

[@itsjemmabond]

If the series had ended with Carrie telling Big to go to hell just she left for Paris, it would have been so much better. People here are saying they deserved each other, but it makes for a toxic relationship, and I didn't feel sorry for Carrie when she was dumped at the altar. Aiden was a much better boyfriend.

[@popmans9999]

itsjemmabond I always pictured my ending as Carrie walking away from Paris and being over with men

[@Johnny-ut3ku]

itsjemmabond I actually read the writers intended it for her to end up alone and say that the girls were her soulmates, but apparently HBO didn’t like insisted on a happier ended. I honestly would have prefer her to end up alone, I thought it would have been truly revolutionary at the time. To have a woman who appears to have it all to decide that her worth isn’t tied to any man, ang that embracing being alone is also a solid option. I think it would’ve honestly made a lot more sense as well.

[@itsjemmabond]

+jay dee Then HBO were idiots. And let's not forget the film, she should have left him for good when he dumped her at the altar.

[@chrispeplinski7306]

I don't see carrie being able to survive being alone but it would have been interesting.

[@LittleMissRockChalk]

While Aidan treated Carrie better than Big did, he wasn't right for her. He and Carrie had different priorities, so a breakup was warranted. Big certainly did a lot of shady and thoughtless things, but some on this list, like expecting Big to be monogamous when he and Carrie never actually discussed monogamy, are unfair to Big and paint Carrie like she's almost always the victim. I love SATC, but I think this list could use some rethinking.

[@Anu01]

I don't agree with the part where you should discuss monogamy. I think it's obvious if you start a relationship, you don't see other women/men.

[@LittleMissRockChalk]

Kirahvi karahvi I think you can expect that if you explicitly decide to start an exclusive relationship, but in that episode Carrie acknowledges that they’ve only gone out a few times. Two or three dates is not a relationship. I’m very Team Big on this issue, lol!

[@notthefather3919]

Uhh. Like her and Big had the same priorities? That's not a reason to break up with someone who's great for you.

[@MsMinoula]

@notthefather how are they great if you don't match?

[@LittleMissRockChalk]

I think they do match. Both of them thrive on drama, and Carrie even discusses this in a few episodes throughout the series. They also both desire a glamorized, high-profile, big-city lifestyle, whereas Aidan is more low key. Big definitely exhibits annoying, careless behavior, but Carrie also does throughout the series, like when she ditches Charlotte at the opera and refuses to go on vacation with Big at the last minute because he can't say right that second that she's "the one." I like Carrie for a lot of things, but her behavior can be just as neurotic as Big's.

[@duyguozkann]

I will be always team Aidan, but they're impossible to find in real life :(

[@officeaddict33]

[@katherinebeirne25]

"We're looking at all the times that Mr. Big was inconsiderate, disrespectful, or downright awful". So his entire role in the series.

[@Starbits7]

Big was a terrible person. While I love the actor I never understood his character's appeal on the show. I'd like to point out the Judith Leiber duck purse was probably thousands of dollars and Carrie had a JL cupcake purse in the first movie when she was about to get married. So I disagree with that one (and that episodes's storyline)... but it was probably just the writers not paying attention lol

[@ScratchthechalkBoard]

That picture in the drawer super cute because it’s not a nude , her dressed up to look sexy, nor is it of them being intimidate. It’s just them smiling and he perseveres that memory by keeping the photo in a drawer that he uses everyday, he must see her everyday every morning at the start of his day. Awesome

[@user-ow1to2rq9h]

Blinded? Or after his cash......?

[@lisakaz35]

I had a quasi-relationship of a push-pull variety. If he was at all emotionally unavailable or in a relationship, he was interested in me and came in all hot and heavy. When he was sorta vulnerable in being free to date/be involved with me, he'd be afraid and push me away. I cried so much over him (college years). The inconsistency and what I now see as fear tore me up. I tried so hard to make a relationship (a real one) work but over time I saw that he made it impossible. It wasn't my fault. He didn't "get away" because I made mistakes. Regardless of what I did, right or wrong, it'd never work out owing to his fear. I lamented for a long time, too, that I "didn't know what to do" to "fix" it, but then I finally realized I couldn't change that part of him and it meant a relationship would never work, even if he ever gave me or it a chance.

[@racheldollton]

I honestly never minded Mr. Big. It was pretty clear that Carrie was way too clingy for him. He was this independent, businessman. He needed a woman that was independent too (Natasha). Carrie kept pushing him further away but needing him constantly. I feel like he made what he wanted pretty clear to Carrie.

[@RachelleBanuelos]

Listen this why in the second movie I couldn’t stand Carrie. After allllllll that she went thro with this fool she was mad he wanted to sit on the couch and be with her!! Girl, if you don’t sit down somewhere . But anyways he was a Jackass. And when you lay it out like this WOW, can’t believe she married him. SMDH

[@g07t3522]

Big was actually toxic AF and we should all be worried about what is so broken in Carrie that she took it for so long.

[@alanramirez3814]

I loved Carrie but how can a woman that is such an independent feminist let a guy walk over her so many times? I still don’t get how they ended up together, it was so unrealistic. Never liked them together, I always thought Aidan was the right one for her

[@MsMinoula]

She is independent but only halfway feminist. She is always the girl in the relationship, hardly acts as a friend or an equal.

[@BatelSkater]

Trust me. Emotional abuse is very serious.. I was attached to mine for 10 years. Still trying to get over him for good..

[@nicknsharonfan]

For their affair, Big gets additional points knocked down because, yes he was married, and he started! In the beginning Carrie did try to shoo him away. But he kept on calling her, showing up at her house, and stalked her to the hotel where she was working, followed her into the elevator, then force kissed her. Yes she finally accepted and reciprocated, which was bad… I guess she should’ve kneed him in the groin.

[@rupkathabhowmick]

I second you

[@fmor2779]

I remember my mom telling me that Big leaving Carrie at the Altar was Miranda's fault because she scared him, and I said: "It's true that Miranda planted a seed of doubt, but if he loved Carrie enough or believed in himself enough he would have done it despite that, and actually change for the better for himself. But no, he got cold feet and then tried to excuse himself like it was nothing, Big is the worst." I don't think what Miranda did was ok, but the decision to leave Carrie at the altar was Big's, that only proved to me , YET ONCE AGAIN, that he can't handle a relationship, let alone another marriage. That day I found out my mom was more likely to be part of Team Big...

[@gennababulal2805]

I think the relationship of Carrie and Big was just toxic and honestly women who love and respect themselves don't stick around with the Mr. Bigs in the world they love themselves enough and let go of that knowing it's no loss to them

[@Ohkeh640]

Genna Babulal you’re spot on

[@m.nicole7996]

To think that Big leaving Carrie at the altar would be unforgivable.. but she, eventually, took him back.. ughhhh. She shouldn't have settled.

[@leahmarie112]

There were so many times where I thought that Big had every right to be a "dick". Carrie spends so much time complaining about how Big doesn't know who she is and how he always tries to change her. Yet...she spends the whole series trying to push him into something he doesn't want and to change him to be more how she likes him.

[@katerinasano19]

They deserved each other they were both shallow, selfish and weirdly codependent to each other

[@moreofawave]

Oh, give me a break. Some men are clueless about fashion. It doesn't mean he's inconsiderate if he buys you something outside your style. He may have noticed all these women with this type of purse and figured "Oh, this might be the in style-I bet Carrie would like that". Anyway, Big is a dipstick but not for this reason.

[@shadeyxo]

I love Carrie and Big together. I honestly think they’re soulmates especially since they both suck 😂 But I always felt like they had this amazing connection which explains why they never could stay away from each other. I know people wanted her to end up with Aiden but that wasn’t her. Aiden is a sweet country boy Carrie is a modern city girl it never would’ve worked in the long run

[@sweetpeachrista12]

Numbers 9 and 1 I disagree. 9.) He just had surgery on his heart and shortly after he realized that Carrie was the one and asked Charlotte, Samantha, and Miranda for their blessing to rescue Carrie from the insensitive Alexander in Paris. 1.) Was a three way blame: Big's cold feet after being married twice before, Carrie never being married and experiencing all of the things that go with planning a wedding, and Miranda's snide comment about marriage to Big. The rest I agree he did some awful things.

[@trayb318]

Miranda's snide comment shouldnt have deterred Big at all if he was sure about his decision

To me he bought her the duck purse because he's been to these parties before. For some reason every women carries these bejeweled purses. So he bought one for Carrie like "Here, you're going to need one of these." It wasn't that deep.

[@simonakatsman974]
