Key Takeaways
- Carter’s relationship issues have taken center stage on B&B.
- Daphne wants him to solidify their relationship.
- Carter assumes he has to pop the question even though they only dated for a few months.
- His impulsiveness has led to heartbreak in the past.
Carter’s Bad Luck in Love
Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) falls in and out of love faster than anyone else on the soap. Most of his mistakes stem from his tendency to fall hard and fast, as well as his tendency to fall for women who are drawn to other men. These mistakes have led to constant heartbreak and turbulent relationships despite his genuine feelings.
Carter is often seen as the second choice. Or he gets entangled in elaborate schemes, such as the infamous Forrester Creations coup attempt. When Carter falls in love, he can’t think straight. He’s only focused on the woman in front of him.
With Hope (Annika Noelle), he was involved in a scheme against Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Steffy (Jaqueline MacInnes Wood). Some B&B fans felt Hope manipulated Carter’s feelings to get back at the father-daughter duo, complicating their romantic relationship.
Additionally, Carter often falls for women who are in love with someone else. Hope went back to Liam (Scott Clifton). Previously, Carter had a passionate affair with Quinn (Rena Sofer), who was married to Eric (John McCook).
Will His Luck Turn Around?
This time, Carter is with Daphne (Murielle Hilaire), whom he cannot trust because of his previous relationship with Hope. She was hoping that he would’ve cemented their relationship during the holidays, but he hasn’t. As a result, she has grown distant and has debated returning to Paris.
Carter wants to fight for their love. But there’s just one problem. He thinks he can solve it with an engagement ring, which has led to his heartbreak in the past. This impulsive move could backfire, sending Daphne back to Paris.
Rather than popping the question, Carter should prove that he’s committed to Daphne. Her issue was that they were dating casually. She wants to know if this is a long-term relationship.
They should take this time to get to know each other and make their feelings clear. The lack of communication is what led them to this problem in the first place. Carter needs to reflect on his past heartbreaks and avoid repeating the same mistake.
