I agree with GiantKid for the most part (well, minus the Spam bit. That's a train I just can't hop on. I can't get past Spencer's age and the fact that he's been like a pseudo big brother to Sam. If he was her age or just a little older I could totally get behind it though.)

Anyways, I think Freddie is good enough for Sam. Sure, he "loved" Carly (Granted whether he really was ever "in love" with her is debatable), but he grew up and his feelings changed and eventually he fell in love with Sam. That doesn't make him a bad person. Also, Carly didn't seem bothered at any point by the fact that Freddie was dating her best friend and was acting like he never dated her. Note she never acted like she dated him either. They broke up because Freddie felt like Carly didn't really like him and it was just hero worship. She accepted that reasoning and never mentioned it again. Obviously, it's not some situation with hard feelings or anything. Neither Carly nor Sam seem to be holding his change of heart against him (presumably because his feelings for Carly were never that real to be begin with. Obsession and infatuation, but not love.)

And going back to a few of GiantKid's points. Sam was the first one since Sam/Freddie's break up that we saw openly flirting with someone else, yet no one really made much of a fuss about it (admittedly it was really minor and obviously meant as more of a humorous thing than a "Look, Sam's head over heals for a guy that isn't Freddie"). I also feel like sometimes fans let Sam get away with more than they do Freddie. I'm almost certain that when Freddie's story line about trying to impress that girl rolls around, Freddie's character is going to be getting a lot of grief from fans.

Also, I do think it's possible to love someone but for them not to be "the one". It happens sometimes. Just because you love someone doesn't mean you'll end up together. Sadly, life isn't that cut and dry.

I also think it's possible you're mixing your feelings towards Nathan with your feelings towards Freddie. I know there's been a lot of people who liked Jathan (and I'm assuming you do based on your name) who have been really disenchanted by Nathan lately and have been saying Jennette deserves better than him and all that, but that's not Freddie and Sam. That's Nathan and Jennette. I'm not Nathan's biggest fan either to say the least, but I don't let that affect how I view Freddie.
