It's the way he's put 'she's come home' that I find weird like he didn't expect her to come home. Would 'she's back' not be a bit more appropriate?

Right?! He could have just waited and proposed when she got back!

Also, I am all for being comfy on a plane and often don't really care what I look like at the airport, but Carrie's outfit was certainly...a choice...

it’s so accusatory! the tone is i proposed to you and you left me. he knew she was going away but he couldn’t resist the urge to make her birthday and holiday (two things she’d been really looking forward to) centred on himself.

Hmm I'd always heard that she broke Charlie's heart and the guy was distraught. I wonder if she doctored the events for the book so she wouldn't look like a bitch. We know she's a proper liar, especially when it comes to her relationships. I'd take everything in her book with a fistful of salt.

Agreed! I found this wording so concerning, surely it should be "I proposed to her right before she went on holiday". Like the way he speaks about her is so worrying!

Also does anyone else thinks Carrie's whole demeanor/vibe has changed. Like I remember watching this fun beaming chatty girl in her bedroom who seemed so excited by life whereas now she seems so angry and like her light has gone. I thought this before Joel tbh but I think it's gotten worse, like she just seems so lost about herself. I understand we grow up but it seems she's just gotten bitter and a bit empty which is a weird way to describe someone who is recently engaged. I dunno something just seems off especially in that video.

Still catching up on the warp-speed threads but just wanted to say I fully agree with this. No, Ollie and Carrie were not the perfect couple and obviously the intensity of feelings was a little one-way near the end but you could see plain as day that they liked and respected and even loved each other. It’s obviously easier to see now when we have such an awful comparison.

it’s very telling though that the highlights video doesn’t have any gross staged snogging in all 5 years of their relationship, compared to what could feature in a Jarrie “highlights” (lol) video after 5 months.

“She’s come home!!” Jesus Christ, she’s been on holiday for 2 weeks, not fighting in a war for her country for years

Carrie, if you’re reading this (which we all know you are) consider this question:
If you were still with Oli (and as undeniably happy as you both used to be in the Addams days) and you met Joel. Would he turn your head? Because if the answer is no, you’re settling love. You’re taking what you can get because you think it’s all that’s on offer. if the answer is yes, then more power to ya! But accept that your fiancé is someone that a lot of people around you will not like and you’ll find your social circle decrease even faster.

edit to add in Addams days!

Nah..the way she half ran to him at the airport and the look on her face was not someone who is madly in love and who has missed her brand new fiancé!

I’m thinking of a clip of when she went to stay with Oliver when he was working in a theatre somewhere and he filmed her coming around the corner to meet him and she was much more happy and excited than in Joel’s clip!

We can never be wrong about him anymore, can we? Every single OTT/ridiculous/toxic thing we predicted he'd do, he's done and outdone.

The wording he is using is so bad and worrying (and in red?!) really shows his anger about this whole situation that he choose for himself by proposing when he did!!!!!

Again HER plane was delayed Joel not her fault you idiot...

Is that the look of LOVE we can see on Carrie's face?! I really don't think so!!!!!!!!! I knew he bought her flowers as you could spot them in Scott's stories last night. Sad Joel wasn't wearing his Fletcher t-shirt at the airport though
ALSO if you watch the video carefully you can see Debbie Fletcher and her husband making a swift exit when arriving at the gate instead of going to say hello to Joel it is quite entertaining to watch

Carrie I would be disgusted too if I had to come back to my own place with creepy Joel Shrek living in. Run Carrie Run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joel, the holiday was planned for ages, you just decided to propose before she left.
Exactly this. The framing is 100%

Also - why didn’t he check the arrivals before setting off to the airport? For someone who’s perpetually online it’s a bit odd.

Or did he know and turn up anyway to add fuel to the woe-is-me-we-are-CRUELLY-SEPARATED-BY-FATE narrative? Because if he’s trying to create an us-against-the-world thing…

it was the face of oh my god he’s filming me and then a very sad little half-run for appearances on camera.

this whole thing is making me very soft towards carrie tbh. we’ve all been there in wanting a little distraction or confidence boost after a breakup and i think most people can get caught up in a rebound thing. but it’s like joel has just been lying in wait for her the whole time and now he “has” her, he’s just done this intense thing that isn’t even love bombing really, it’s like love grenades over and over, and the whole thing has probably gone too far beyond her.

like i said on the other thread, the fear of what he would do if she actually did leave him must be very present in her mind too.

The reel. I cannot. The choice of music suggests she’s been off serving on the front line! And his stupid turned up thing he does with his face. Lord I would have been turning to get back ON the plane if he had been waiting for me.

I also love that you can see Scott behind Buzz just aimlessly looking around anywhere other than Joel it is funny that literally no one but Carrie seems to spot him or care that he’s there, no one excitedly taps her on the shoulder to point him out or anything not even the kids, if I’d just watched that with no context I’d have assumed she was on the plane just her like they were coming back on a different flight or something
