True, but he could have left at any time, he chose to stay with her for 5 years and I feel like if it’s been a year or two and their still not compromising then it’s time to reevaluate the relationship and talk to your partner. Honestly I don’t know why he stayed with her for so long and even moved in with her, I mean he even stayed with her at Tom and Gi’s house while her house was being renovated until they could move in, so surely by then he would’ve realized. I think Oliver was almost weirdly ashamed of his relationship with Carrie, I’m not sure if it’s because he thought she wasn’t as conventionally attractive as what he used to date or what he thought he should date, no hate to Carrie I think she’s beautiful even if I don’t love her style choices all the time, I think she’s a beautiful woman and if that was the case then that’s his problem, not hers and she shouldn’t feel bad about it.
Not taking up for Carrie, we all know how insufferable she is, but I feel like people act like she kept Oliver locked up in her house and when he broke up with her he caught a lucky escape, he’s a grown man and could have left at any time. He had no problem tagging along on the press trips she got too go on, events she was invited too, living in her brother and sister-in-laws house, living in her house or going on holiday with her though. I feel like people are now taking up for Oliver and painting him as the victim or now he’s poor Oliver that was stuck with Carrie and he finally caught a lucky escape or he should be awarded for putting up with her for so long, but when they were together a lot of people complained about him, I just don’t get the immediate switch. Carrie I’m sure did a lot of wrong in the relationship, but I’m sure Oliver did wrong stuff to, a relationship is two people and they were both grown adults in their relationship. But, I’ve never liked Olive either, so maybe that’s why I feel this way, I always thought him and Carrie both were/are insufferable, self absorbed and smug. Just my opinion, I’m not bullying Oliver so don’t come for me lol, just never liked him, he’s always come across as a bit of a dick to me, but so does Carrie so
I’m not taking up for Carrie either, just saying Oliver was a grown adult too in the relationship. I think their both insufferable. I mean could you imagine the amount of ego in that house when they lived together?!
