@FallinqForYouhx3: I would love something like that. Maybe just a date here or there that reminds them why they love each other and why they want to be together. It'd help them realize that no one else really measures up, which ultimately leads them back to each other. Also, I think some jealousy from one another could definitely come into play with a "going on dates with other people" storyline...and there is comedic gold in that possibility. A jealous Freddie in regards to Sam has always been on my Seddie wishlist.

@GiantKid: I've learned never to count anything out with Dan, but I have a lot of qualms with that idea.

1. Carly falling for Freddie. In the past I would buy the undiscovered, buried feelings idea, but at this point I find it hard to see as logical. iSYL came and went and Carly easily accepted the bacon theory. They have a friendly and (in comparison to seddie) rather platonic break-ip. Time passes and Carly never attempts to get Freddie back. She dates other guys and never has any epiphany about Freddie. When asked if she's dating Freddie, as recently as iSAFW, she says "Ewww.No!" As recently as iLMM she insinuates that he isn't hot or attractive to her in "that way". She watches as her best friend basically admits to being in love with him. She watches as that relationship develops and it grows clearer and clearer that Freddie's affections no longer favor her, but have now turned to her best friend. And never once is there a moment of realization or discovery of hidden feelings.

If none of that could dig up "buried feelings", then I don't see what could. I just feel like, if Carly hasn't realized any "feelings" for freddie at this point with all the oppurtunities she's had...then maybe there's a reason for that....as in there's nothing there.

2. Cam friendship. Sam has told Freddie she's in love with him. Carly has said (on multiple ocassions) that Sam is in love with Freddie. What girl dates the boy her best friend is in love with. That would do serious damage to the Cam friendship...not to mention to Carly's character.

3. Freddie's feelings. He's in love with Sam. Who says he would even take Carly back at this point? His affections have obviously switched targets if you will. He's in love with Sam. Why would he date Carly? People seem to want to assume that if Carly said jump, Freddie would still ask "How high?". I think the arc made it clear that Freddie doesn't exist anymore. He loves Sam.

4. It cheapens everything. If Freddie goes from having a crush on carly, to being in love with Sam, to dating Carly again, it completely cheapens anything he's every felt for either of them. No one would really be able to take his feelings for Sam seriously if he so easily switches back into Carly mode. The back and forth only works for so long before it reflects badly upon the character.
