A surprising amount of fans come to Carrie's defense

Carrie has undoubtedly made her fair share of mistakes. In the early days of "Sex and the City," she misuses Aiden (John Corbett) and pines after Big when he demonstrates no interest. Many of her actions are based on her insecurity of being alone, as many Redditors noted.

"She overanalyzes every little thing and turns it around, making her seem like a victim whether it be with Big, Aiden, or her friends. Anybody else feel the same way?" asked u/sdesire93. This opinion was often circulated on Reddit, and no one can argue that Carrie has these qualities. But even so, fans watch the series for a reason. And since Carrie is the protagonist that brings viewers into the world, many had an interesting take on her decisions.

"[Showrunner] Michael Patrick King has said that he wrote Carrie as like a cautionary tale and like you say, she represents the mistakes a lot of us make," noted one Redditor. More people agreed and rushed to Carrie's defense. On another thread, one user acknowledged that the point of the series is that the characters are not always perfect. U/ActualCatRedditor reasoned that despite how badly they treat each other, that is essentially the series' thesis. Anyone who doesn't understand that is missing the point. Though not consistently tolerable, characters making mistakes are true to life.

She's young and she has time. That's typical.
