The romantic drama has never been what makes 'Insecure' so good
Spoilers for the series finale of Insecure ahead.
In the end, Lawrence was Issa's Mr. Big.
Ok, that's a bit simplistic – on Sex and the City, Carrie Bradshaw and Big's on-again-off again relationship is far more dysfunctional and manipulative than the one between Insecure's Issa and Lawrence could ever be. In Season 1, Issa cheats on Lawrence, but he isn't putting in any effort to the relationship, either, and they both suck at communicating, so the damage is applied fairly equally from either side.
But in the series finale of , the "will-they-or-won't-they" the writers have been teasing all season revealed the answer: They will! And after years of sort of/kind of being together (sometimes) – but primarily interacting through unplanned run-ins and awkward encounters at bougie parties thrown by their mutual friends – the fates aligned of being apart and dating other people. (This show always did love a good, somewhat vague time-jump).
