@Crusader, I do NOT want to fight, but you can't compare Freddie's Season 1 personality to the possibilities now. Look at iSpeed Date. Look at the way Freddie's looking at Carly:



THAT, to me, looks pretty serious. And earlier on in that episode, Freddie indirectly said he wanted Carly to go to the dance with him. He's *matured*. I think a timeline showing my opinion would help:

Season 1: Freddie has a crush on Carly. A BIG crush. Carly may or may not have seen him in the same way. Hard to tell really.

Season 2: Still a BIG crush. Probably getting a *little* more serious now. Once again, hard to tell whether Carly felt the same..

Season 3: Here it is getting quite serious. The slow dance, not one laugh track played through the whole thing, because it was a serious moment between the two, and the song "Cause you are meant for me..." that *shows* Creddie is not a big joke. And then iSaved Your Life. Freddie's feelings had matured to the level where he was willing to give up something he had wanted for years, Carly's love, to make sure he wasn't taking advantage of his best friend. (Yes, I consider Carly Freddie's best friend. It may not be the other way around, but Freddie definitely is closer to Carly than anyone else). Carly was showing many hints of liking Freddie back.

So, Freddie had a crush, it developed to something stronger, and then it may have almost reached proper love. Probably not *quite* that far, but close. It would be hard for Freddie to just "get over it".

I don't want to start something. I just don't like seeing fellow Creddiers lose hope... Creddie was always about hope. It was what the relationship was *built* on. Freddie had always *hoped* Carly would feel the same way about him that he did about her. If he didn't lose hope, why should we?
