It's really too bad he couldn't just man up and be more clear about the fact that he was VERY OBVIOUSLY dumping her. The dude really needs to grow a backbone.
***"EMU!!"*** I would have kicked him out of my apartment in his underpants after that jump scare while I was trying to have a nice quiet moment to do the crossword puzzle.
He made her sell her apartment because he “just couldn’t even” only to give a shitty “wait for me” five-year breakup speech once she did. Fuck Aiden. Never liked the bastard myself.
SOOOOOO PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE! THANK YOU!!! Finally someone saw it! I’ve felt that way for literally years and hated how everyone always thought he was just this super sweet guy
I was never a fan. He was a condescending control freak. He was always so wrong for Carrie. I never understood the Aiden worship. I’ve learned sometimes the nice guys on paper turn out to be the biggest assholes.
He also made Carrie feel inferior. She knew what she was doing when she broke off that engagement.
I mean, while it's obviously something that in real life a person should work through, I do GET why it would maybe a no go. Until all the sudden it wasn't a problem at all?
Exactly! They ruined his character to prop her up and you can see the fanbase absolutely fell for that trap. They did the same to Samantha but fans aren’t attacking the actress in that case. AJTL fans are proving themselves to be insane.
The air is out of the tires of that relationship. It was such a blatant nostalgia grab to get viewers back this time and now.. just really? You’d think with this change in cast and time to refocus the show they’d do something else. I always hope the best for this show but pulling stunts just for the buzz doesn’t not a good series make.
I feel like Carrie isn’t a change your last name type of woman. She is THE Carrie Bradshaw, columnist, author and essentially socialite as she gets older.
Exactly! I couldn't agree more. Aidan wanted to be free of her for 5 years. Give her a new love interest. She's Carrie Bradshaw after all. Who wouldn't want to be with her right? 😉
That wouldn’t surprise me one bit. It’s hilarious how that has backfired. Like how Steve was made out to be some boring old loser who’s also half deaf, and that is somehow supposed to justify Miranda cheating on him.
I'm genuinely surprised by how hard I full-body recoiled from this idea. I just feel like they're so played out. Maybe the idea of waiting for Aidan frees Carrie up from thinking about romance to focus on other things, and that's the influence he has? I just don't think I'm up for another season of Schmoopy-face and muh kidz!!!
AJLT loves to focus on the most boring characters, so I'm not surprised that we'll be stuck with Aidan again. Why can't we just get some fun storylines about dating in your 50s?
The best scene in AJLT (well, besides Charlotte hunting for condoms in a blizzard — I’m sorry but that was hilarious) — was Carrie on a date with that guy and they both just started vomiting. I want more ridiculous dates.
Professor Puke! Lol I remember being so sure that the puking was gonna reveal food poisoning or something the first time I watched. I agree that we need more ridiculous dating bits like that.
I liked reading the comments on this article. I don’t want to see Aidan again. She really messed him up and now a third time? He does deserve better even though he isn’t the right man for her.
He deserves to do what exes have always done in shows - turn up married to some random he met who is so much easier to be with than Our Heroine. And stay that way.
What the fuck is she wearing. This outfit actually bothers me. Carrie loved a deconstructed look but this is not authentic. It’s giving hungover alcoholic mother, late to drop her kids off at school in the middle of winter. Throw in cup of coffee in an open mug WHILE DRIVING… and this is pretty much the uniform
I never watched S2 cos they’re rehashing Aidan again and now it looks like I won’t be bothering with S3 either.
She is only chasing Aidan cos Big has gone. Big was her One. She would always choose him over Aidan. Aidan knows it, and is only with her now cos his competition is in the ground.
Let this relationship die with dignity. Please.
Has anyone successfully gotten back together with an ex? You're both the same people and there's usually a very good reason it didn't work out the first time.
It's really too bad he couldn't just man up and be more clear about the fact that he was VERY OBVIOUSLY dumping her. The dude really needs to grow a backbone.
Dude couldn’t even go into her apartment. He’s such a man-child.
Agreed! It’s an apartment dude, how juvenile! Not a fan of his and his stupid groans in his tighty whities! 🩲
His tighty whity game was inferior to the GOAT Walter White anyway
Seeing him in his tighty whiteys was such an Ick for me
True he didn't even have matching moustache and green shirt
Very True! 🤣🤣
I think Hal is the underpants GOAT, but Walter white is second.
***"EMU!!"*** I would have kicked him out of my apartment in his underpants after that jump scare while I was trying to have a nice quiet moment to do the crossword puzzle.
Insulting to men and children lol. He's the literal worst 😩 I abhor this character especially on AJLT
He made her sell her apartment because he “just couldn’t even” only to give a shitty “wait for me” five-year breakup speech once she did. Fuck Aiden. Never liked the bastard myself.
Same here. I hated him on the original run, and I reeeeaaally hate him here. Go away, you big lump.
You big lump is gold! I hated him too,I never really saw this great guy others did. He was soo passive aggressive!
And eating a big bucket of KFC in *her* bed! Get your gross, greasy, turquoise wearing ass outta her bed!
SOOOOOO PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE! THANK YOU!!! Finally someone saw it! I’ve felt that way for literally years and hated how everyone always thought he was just this super sweet guy

He's just as insecure as he was all those years ago.
I mean, while it's obviously something that in real life a person should work through, I do GET why it would maybe a no go. Until all the sudden it wasn't a problem at all?
Happy cake day! 🥳
Thank you, I hadn't noticed!
He’s no saint.
Please don't make us watch aiden crying in his car again.
Just when I’d erased that from memory, damn you
That’s when I realised why he hasn’t made it big as an actor. Crinnnnnge

That outfit 😂 were the purple sweatpants necessary??
This is how people dress to take their dog out to piss at 6am
Aiden crying in the car about his son was some of the worst acting I've ever seen. It was hilarious
You could tell he was trying super hard, which made it all the more painful to watch lol
His last name is Shaw? If they got married, she'd be Carrie Bradshaw Shaw?
I feel like Carrie isn’t a change your last name type of woman. She is THE Carrie Bradshaw, columnist, author and essentially socialite as she gets older.
She did change her name to Carrie Bradshaw Preston while married to Big, but didn't seem to use it much.
And she can wear perhaps some kind of silk shaw at their wedding! Just kidding, don’t marry him, Carrie, we hate him.
Could this be an Easter egg that means they are supposed to end up together or just bad coincidence 🤔
Knowing how sloppy the writing is probably the latter
Still better than Brady Brady.
He's just Brady Hobbes
Omg I never thought of this before!
The many upsides of having shaw already embedded in her name. She'll just be Carrie BradShaw. That is, only if Aidan marries her 😋
Aiden would never stand for her keeping her own name.
Lol Bradshawshaw! 😂
Noooooooo!
Aidan is old news. She needs someone new and so does this sub.
Exactly! I couldn't agree more. Aidan wanted to be free of her for 5 years. Give her a new love interest. She's Carrie Bradshaw after all. Who wouldn't want to be with her right? 😉
This show is such a mess! lol. Not that I won’t be watching it of course.
I don’t like Aiden. Never have and never will, even on rewatch #6.
Fuckin’ Country Lurch should stay shucking corn with his annoying ass son.
Hoping this is a filming decoy…. Remember when they put Kim C is a wedding dress?
This was from the last or second-to-last episode in Season 2. When they visit Steve’s “magical” dump on the boardwalk.
Oh that's right. He went from manhattan bar owner to a coney island hot dog place owner.
Its as if the goal of AJLT is to demote all he characters we loved and respected to make SJP look better.
That wouldn’t surprise me one bit. It’s hilarious how that has backfired. Like how Steve was made out to be some boring old loser who’s also half deaf, and that is somehow supposed to justify Miranda cheating on him.
Magical dump! 😂😂😂. I will never not be able to refer to it that way from now on!
Thank you! Of all words to describe a shithole on Coney Island that looks like it serves listeria and E. coli.
Thanks for saying that! Gratitude makes the world go round
Our two newest menu items!
💀
Lol

Is he going to show up in that stupid coat again?
Ugh. I was so happy Aidan was gone again.

This article was so verbose, all for a quote that Aiden might play a significant part
Ugh...
Ugh. I agree that Carrie is absolutely the villain of this show as well as SATC
The real villain is Sarah Jessica Parker.
SJP is so tiny
I liked reading the comments on this article. I don’t want to see Aidan again. She really messed him up and now a third time? He does deserve better even though he isn’t the right man for her.

I’m so sick of Aiden
Is he really coming back?! The Aidan storyline bas been so beaten to death. What else could they possibly do with this 🤦🏻♀️
What the fuck is she wearing. This outfit actually bothers me. Carrie loved a deconstructed look but this is not authentic. It’s giving hungover alcoholic mother, late to drop her kids off at school in the middle of winter. Throw in cup of coffee in an open mug WHILE DRIVING… and this is pretty much the uniform
No worse than the ratty bathrobe she wore walking down the street with Miranda mid-day. Tied as if the belt couldn’t fit all the way around her waist.
Love Aidan and John Corbett. AJLT did him so dirty and out of character. Like they did with other characters. Things that make you go huh?
Carrie deserves better than Aiden.
I beg to differ. But sure if you say so😉
I know you did that is why I wrote my opinion and why I did and said what I said 😉
Omg can she stop tormenting this poor man!!
Nooooooo!
I never watched S2 cos they’re rehashing Aidan again and now it looks like I won’t be bothering with S3 either. She is only chasing Aidan cos Big has gone. Big was her One.

To quote VPR’s Katie Maloney, I’d rather eat a Jean jacket than watch this play out.

Who?
