I hate the idea that this is something Big deserves- his other marital sins don't automatically build up for THIS marriage.
I agree I get furstrated with this perception at general sites that Big treated Carrie really badly, and a lot of people seem to have the idea that he cheated on her Big's major flaw was that he wasn't ready to commit to Carrie, but then it's not like he didn't make that clear, and he never strung Carrie along. If anything Big was the one pushing Carrie for a real committment larer on when she couldn't make up her mind between him and Aidan, and begged Big not to take the step of ending things with Natasha

What makes Big and Carrie work for me is that they are so alike. Carrie may think that she wants the committed guy, but she admitted herself that whenever Aidan pushed her for committment she was acting exactly like Big, and deep down it wasn't something she wanted any more than he did.

I think he gets a bad rap in the BC relationship, too. He wasn't always fully available, but he WAS always honest. He never pretended to be something he wasn't. He gave her monogamy and fidelity when she asked for it. And I think she needed the time and the evolution as much as he did, as much as she may not have felt like it at the time. They weren't meant to get married and have babies a year into their relationship. It's EVERY evolution of their relationship, as well as who they became as individuals, that makes them work so well. Big and Carrie grew together, whereas with every other guy they just grew apart.
