I know Carrie is arrogant and brought this situation on herself, but I really do think her social media presence the last few weeks has been extremely odd for her. Especially this past week. She’s barely spoken about Joel at all, has never expressed she misses him. Didn’t comment on any of his Joelmas videos, and every time she reposts him she either does it with no commentary added, or something really flat and forced.
Carrie is normally a very overly expressive over sharing type of person. If she missed Joel and was happy with all the weird shit he’s been posting recently, she would express that. I do honestly feel like her silence is kinda defeating atm. Maybe it really is just jet lag, and once she’s back to 100%, she’ll start to match Joel’s insanity? But her current vibe atm is bizarrely subdued considering she just got engaged to the supposed love of her life. She should be bouncing off the walls but she just doesn’t look like a blissfully happy or excited person rn??
It was noticeable how in his latest video (about doing what "the wife" tells him to do) he tells Carrie "I'm really glad to have you back" in this icky, cutesy voice (while eyeing the camera, of course, famehungry weirdo that he is). And she just offers back the most bland "I'm glad to be back
![Slightly smiling face :slight_smile: 🙂](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/emoji-assets@5.0/png/64/1f642.png)
". Without looking at him, no mention of whether she's glad to be back
with him.
She's really not going along with his performance as much anymore. Which, good for her, I would want no part of this either. It's really making me think, as much as I never really got her and Oliver as a couple, it seems like it would be so much better for her to date someone who uses social media sparingly the way Oliver did. Just, she seems to have such an unhealthy relationship with social media herself, and such a problem drawing boundaries. It feels like the last thing she needs is Joel, who's already preparing their oversharing-married-couple-instagram account. He overshares
even more than Carrie, which seemed impossible. I mean, he is ready to full on turn their relationship into a brand. Hopefully finally getting this much relationship validation from the internet will make her see it's not a healthy dynamic, and go date some chill guy with an office job who'll just post about her on her birthday or something.
