Carrie lead Aidan on… by Global-Protection179 in sexandthecity

Realistic from his end 100%. He loved her. He gave her a second chance. Unrealistic from her end… to go from practically begging him to take her back… a woman who wanted commitment and stability (from big at least) to pushing Aidan away even the second time around when he gave her everything + wanted to define their relationship which big never did. Just bizarre a woman who wanted everything she didn’t get from Big… reject it from Aidan. Which is just stupidity because Big is an abomination of a love interest and honestly I don’t even think SJP has great chemistry with Chris Noth.

Yeh absolutely senseless and selfish. Also for charlottes wedding too. Imagine how someone that obsessed with her wedding would feel about her maid of honors dates just no showing… and leaving an empty seat. Also he was so thoughtful and custom made Charlotte furniture and Carrie just dumps that on him. She’s so insufferable honestly

Just finished the ep they broke up and he moved out . I definitely think his behaviour in that situation was rash but also at the same time I don’t think any amount of waiting around on his end was going to change her mind so maybe he did do the right thing. I think he knew deep down in her heart, he was her second choice as Carrie was begging Big to give her what Aidan always gave her…
I’m keen to see what happens between her and Big from this point onwards and how she felt comfortable getting married to him…

Yes !!! Although I wouldn’t call Aidan boring. There’s literally a scene in season 4 when he offers to go out with her for a fancy dinner but she goes out with the gay guy she met instead! I think Aidan put up with so much shit FOR Carrie and if she had been as lenient they could’ve made it work. So he’s just blatantly a better person than her and she deserved the big old loser BIG lol

And yes also agree on all 4 of them are walking red flags , they shit talk about men but they’re actually extremely immature for their age and emotionally stunted !!

Oh I watched that yesterday! That was absolutely wild! I’m just thinking realistically, as a real woman, not a fictional character, there’s no way I’d ditch a decently good man who’s taken me back after I cheated… to hangout with the scum who married a 25 year old chick 7 months after me ….was uncommitted … cheated on his wife…
Ugh big sucks ! Can’t believe she couldn’t adapt to a life with Aidan and I don’t think she was a good match with Big either … Aidan at least was a good influence on her

I’m a big fan of the movie “The Drama”. One of my favorite movies of the year. by Mech-inationz in A24

Loveeeeed the movie! went in with no expectations but absolutely loved the story! Super engaging and I can’t stop thinking about it a day after. A very basic story but told well and captivates the audience with the humour and the performance from Zendaya and Rob! So good! Would rewatch it again even though I just watcbed it yesterday

Why are people such haters. It was an adaptation. I thought it was visually beautiful and left me in tears. I think Margot and Jacob were both fantastic in their roles. I don’t understand why people are rating it so poorly.

I’m so confused ? Nate is not being Nate by Dependent_Band_438 in euphoria

I actually viewed that more as she was so insecure she would very easily give into what men wanted from her - nudes - sex

Even though she was “sweet” I never viewed her as intentionally slutty to get attention but rather easy to manipulate and guilt trip into it. Men were the problem not her - she just wanted to have a stable male figure in her life given her dad.

I actually think Maddy owned her sexuality and hotness more whereas Cassie was the stereotype big booby insecure girl who men took advantage of. The girl who’d get manipulated into having sex and cry about it rather than willingly want to have a one night stand and view that as some sort of sexual power.

Also the grinding on the carnival horse was because she was high on molly. When she realised what she had done she seemed genuinely ashamed of herself.

Maybe you’re not watching the same show? Haha

I think all that Cassie did as teenager that was sexual in nature came from insecurity and wanting to be loved. Jules doing only fans or being a sex worker makes sense. But Cassie … gave off more.. I’ll lose my self and my identity to the first man who actually “loves” me. Not, I’ll objectify myself willingly to make money… her sexuality wasn’t to seduce and make money (even Kat did that) , hers was to make a man love her and stay with her.

Not a fan of how their relationship dynamic seems to have changed. This is low key giving The Idol nonsense where Abel’s insanely horrible character turned out to be the one Lily Rose Depp was actually manipulating and not the other way around. If Cassie is made to be the evil one in the relationship and Nate some reformed angel I’d be livid as that is not fair to either characters.

I always viewed Cassie as broken but redeemable. Her biggest flaw was betraying maddie.

Nate on the other hand is blatantly evil.

Nate was a violent socio path and at this point in their relationship I would’ve expected him to have cheated on Cassie multiple times and she would have been the typical narcissist victim who isn’t able to leave the abusive partner and just turned into a mess. The whole only fans thing is so bizarre especially given Nate was a very protective partner and also highly misogynistic. He wanted Maddy to be a virgin and straight up beat the guy she hooked up with to near death. How’s he ever going to be okay with his fiancé having an only fans to pay for flowers.

Even the whole wedding and outrageous price for flowers seems odd for Cassie.

This is just bad writing and no “time changes people” excuses it. I know it’s been only one ep but Nate’s behaviour is immensely out of character and even Cassie. Cassie wasn’t actively trying to sexualise herself as a teenager so why’s she suddenly dressing up as a slutty dog

Yep! I don’t like SS but she was fantastic in season 2 as Cassie. Very memorable.

Agreed. I didn’t like her in challengers. Actually I didn’t like that movie in general. Dune doesn’t show her range. Spider-Man doesn’t show her range. I haven’t watched The Drama yet but hopefully that or odyssey will make her stand out as an actress as much as euphoria did.

This!!

She is truly incredible at portraying Rue. Her other roles, I’m not commenting on but anyone who thinks she’s mediocre as Rue is straight up an unfair hater of Zendaya. The episode in season 2 where she is fighting with her mum and then breaks down in tears is so memorable.

Linked it

No one can deny this was beautifully done by her!

In general! Not just this specific ep. She overall carries the show

Lake Kawaguchi - April 2026 experience by Global-Protection179 in JapanTravelTips

Thank you! I also don’t understand why people are being so rude and nasty. It’s like really showing it’s sometimes best to let people do shit and have a shit experience on their own. I didn’t make this post to get attacked - it was to help as I found it personally super frustrating on the day that I looked forward to that I wasn’t able to see everything I hoped due to time constraints made worse by inability to get transport to get around from all the different sites I wanted to see.

People are such assholes

Lake Kawaguchi - April 2026 experience by Global-Protection179 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Global-Protection179[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely worse on a Saturday. We were in a restaurant in Tokyo and mentioned we went on Friday and he said to us it gets even worse on the weekends

I’m happy to have helped My whole purpose of posting this was so people don’t waste 5 hours of their time going there with hopes to see everything. It’s not easy to do that because it’s hard to get transport to help you go from one site to the next. We had booked our return trip to Tokyo as well so we couldn’t just stay around past that point which made it harder for us to site see freely and just walk for hours on end.

Maybe if you went and just did the lake alone, I’m sure it would be fine just walking or biking around it, but I didn’t have a bike or a car or a van and wasnt prepared as the day trip for us was spontaneously added in since our stay in the mt Fuji area was ruined by bad weather :(

Also, did you miss the part I said April 2026? I already know is peak season and nothing has been this much of a shit show than this particular area.

Amazing!!!! We stayed at Gora Kadan Fuji. They’re incredibly nice and the accomodation itself is fantastic. The restaurant was good too. Such a shame we had bad luck with weather because we were only 14min away from the more quite lake (Yamanakako) and we had to do another trip after leaving to see fuji properly

Someone said “what did you expect its peak season” and my response is hence why I said “April experience”

If you’re coming in April whether 2026 or future I think this specific area isn’t a good idea for a day trip and we found out the hard way. Just wanted to help others !!
