Unmarried Carrie was a pro at breaking The Rules while dating -- pushing too hard for commitment, being overly honest and not mysterious, seeing a married man, losing her L&B ("light and breezy") on a regular basis, and overall trying way, way too hard with Big. Given that The Rules for Marriage is, in some ways, the mirror opposite of The Rules for Dating, you might think that Carrie would have an easier time being Rules-y within the new construct of matrimony. And....you would be wrong.
It's one thing to try and suspend disbelief in pretending that it's realistic that an extremely handsome business tycoon would -- after years of foot dragging and even canceling a wedding -- enthusiastically jump into marriage with a quirky-looking, needy, insecure Carrie. Sure.......it's fiction, right? Anything can happen. But to watch Carrie start to take for granted her incredible stroke of fortune....to start nagging Big about his TV-watching-habits, or forcing him to go out when he doesn't want to, is a little too much to bear.
