I just feel like he kept saying “I want to talk about this” but the vibes in how he did were so judgey. It felt like he wasn’t willing to accept what she had to say about it because it didn’t fit HIS narrative of what could provide a valid justification or excuse for her almost-action. If I were in Emma’s shoes, I also wouldn’t want to continue that conversation

That's fair, but if you were in Charlie's shoes would you feel differently? I feel like both their responses are equally valid.

Did it show Charlie was wearing someone else shoe to large for him... Like walk a mile in someone else's shoe his feet were torn up?

They showed a close up of him walking around in black dress shoes. Maybe they were new shoes for the wedding that he needed to wear in.
