User blog comment:1seddiefan/Carly is Freddie's first love? More like first obsession./@comment-4402317-20111013015737

Since this is posted as I blog I will respond.

I responded a little bit earlier on the Creddie page on why I think Freddie is in love with Carly. Was it puppy love at first, yes (at least according to Creddiers), and was he a little obsessive, at the beginning, yes.

But the main points that I would like to point out in my argument are from iSD and iSYL.

When Sam walks in on Freddie and Carly dancing she immediately stops in her tracks. Why? Well, for starters she is distraught if (we all can agree that Sam has harbored a little "crush" on Freddie up to this point) and because she is surprised. She see's Freddie and Carly staring into each other's eyes, slow dancing, and eventually Carly closes the gap between them and puts her head on his shoulder (They were suppose to kiss, but that was cut out). Sam saw something. She was jealous because in that moment she knew that Freddie actually harbored mature feelings for Carly. It wasn't just "puppy love" anymore. And for the first time, Sam probably considered that Carly probably felt the same way back, even if she wasn't aware of it.

In iSYL Freddie stops Carly from telling him that she loves him. Why? Because he knows what "real" love is because he feels it for Carly. He didn't want Carly confessing her love for him under false pretenses. She was under the whole "hero" spell, and he wanted her to really mean it if she said it, because only then could he reciprocate it back appropriately.

Also, Freddie's stalking habits in season 1 were heavily exaggerated and past season 1 it wasn't really that bad. In fact, if the whole "ears bleed" incident was before the show started, and if Sam has "harbored" a crush towards Freddie since the beginning of the show, well, I would say her "habits" are a lot worse.

If Freddie is obsessed with watching Carly, making sure she is okay, and having a poster in his room of her, well, Sam's obsessive behavior is her constantly beating up Freddie. I think we can agree in which one is the most harmful, especially in now that we are in Season 4. lol
