Aidan Revealed as Villain in ‘And Just Like That’

Every time Aidan pops back into Carrie’s life, it’s like a jump scare, according to some fans. And his recent behavior in “And Just Like That…” has definitely not won him any brownie points with viewers.

In the latest episode titled “Carrie Golightly,” Carrie heads to Williamsburg, Virginia, with her friend Seema for a memoirist convention. She chooses this over more high-profile events because she hopes to see Aidan, her on-again-off-again boyfriend. Their long-distance relationship has been rocky, especially after Aidan requested a five-year break at the end of Season 2 due to family issues.

Despite this break, Aidan breaks his own rule in Season 3, declaring his longing for Carrie over a phone call and inviting her to stay at his house. But instead of welcoming her with open arms, he treats her like a side piece, putting her in the guest house and paying her little attention. Fans were not pleased with his behavior, with some even jokingly calling him a controlling cult leader on Reddit.

Whether or not Aidan has some sinister revenge plot against Carrie for past grievances, fans are not buying it. Many are hoping that Carrie will finally end things with Aidan sooner rather than later. Let’s just hope she learns from her past and doesn’t repeat the same mistakes. It seems like this Aidan drama might be a season-long arc, so buckle up for more ups and downs in Carrie’s love life.
