I have been thinking this for a while now. As a Sex and the City fanatic I often download the show to watch on my ipod while I work out. Well I started working out more, so ipso facto I started watching more Sex and the City. My final conclusion, Carrie Bradshaw is our modern day, feisty, well dressed Cinderella. First of all, she has an apartment most columnists can only dream of. Secondly, she seems to have a fair godmother that pays off her exuberant credit card bills (I have looked at the tags of Manolos, they are not on a single girls list of things to buy daily...). Finally, she believes in happiness ever after with a man that is an ass to her 85% of the time. I mean, why do people even want Big and Carrie to get together? He repeatedly breaks her heart, marries another woman, has an affair with her and breaking up the only good relationship she ever had (obviously HUGE Aidan fan), and constantly disrupts her life. Carrie's "happily ever after" gives single girls everywhere hope that the jerk they are dating is going to one day (ten years from the day they met!) will turn around and say "you were the one all along, I love you!"
A relationship myth.
But isn't that what we all need to keep believing that "the one" is out there. Here is to hoping he is, but if not I have plenty of dreams to keep me busy ; )
