@Liz'sLemon Everything you said that Carly has to go through is minor except to the parent thing. Same with all the examples of how "good" Sam has it. Her being responsible comes natural to her. That wasn't forced on her. Spencer lets her do what she wants. She'd get away with more than Sam does if she chose to act up. The absence of her parents doesn't seem to affect her much. The show made Carly the almost perfect character and Sam the character that's flawed but over time overcomes her flaws. I never said that Carly's better with romance. Her inability to to keep a boyfriend longer than an episode makes clear that she can't keep a steady relationship. All I said was the boys are after Carly, not Sam. The boys won't even look at Sam, even though she's better looking. Sam got that arc after she'd been screwed over and over again. At least Carly had a steady stream of boys to the point they were pretty much disposable. I'm no girl, but I bet most girls would rather have Carly's hardships than Sam's. The reason Carly doesn't resent Sam is because she has nothing to resent about her. Really it's Sam who deserves admiration for not resenting Carly. Sam was always second best compared to Carly. Even her first true love went after Carly before he realized how amazing Sam is.I think it's good that Carly accepts Sam for herself, but it's not like she has any good reason to resent her. edit
