5 Lessons I Learned From Sex And The City

| 0 comments

Sex and the City Ladies, if you haven’t watched at least one set of Sex and the city, don’t read this post. But I doubt there is a single woman on this planet who hasn’t watched the series or the movie or both. I’m sure all of you have a favourite character – which one is yours – lovely Carrie, sexy Samantha, cute Charlotte or down-to-earth Miranda?

No matter which lady you like most, there are a few lessons you can learn from them. They are strong women who deal with work and love as well as they can. They make mistakes, but who doesn’t?

The four New Yorkers are strong enough to get a lesson from every break up and failure and move on. We can definitely learn a lot while watching the series. So, here is a list of five lessons I learned from Sex and the city. Enjoy!

True friendship between women exists

Many people say that women can’t be friends with each other. I disagree. Sex and the city is a proof that this statement is wrong. No matter what happens the four women always support each other. When Carrie breaks up with Mr. Big, the girls take her to a baseball play, where she meets a new man. When Samantha is diagnosed with cancer they all go with her to a chemo. When Miranda is pregnant, Charlotte organizes her baby shower even though she is failing in trying to get pregnant. When Charlotte is upset because she can’t have a baby, Miranda walks her home, just in case she wants to talk to somebody. No matter what happens in their personal lives they have brunch every single Saturday. They discuss their problems and help each other. True friendship never goes out of fashion.

High heels are always a good idea

Carries is obsessed with shoes – with beautiful expensive and uncomfortable shoes. She has thousands of pairs and she worships her Manollo Blachnik sandals. No matter where she goes and what happens to her she is always wearing her favourite high heels. And, it’s not only Carrie. The four women are always wearing gorgeous shoes. Fashion is one of the things that make the series and the movies loved by many women around the world. Fashion is a way to express yourself without saying a word. The style of each women perfectly describes her personality. High heels for Carrie, sexy dresses for Samantha, suits for Miranda, pearls for Charlotte.

Not every woman wants to be the perfect housewife

Our four favourite women from Sex and the city and everything but good housewives. Carrie uses her oven as a closet. Charlotte tries cooking sometimes, but just for fun. Have you noticed that there is not a single set in which one of them is cleaning the house? Being a perfect housewife is not their dream job. They are working girls. They chase their goals and fulfill their dreams. Samantha doesn’t want to get married and have kids and I don’t judge her. It’s a personal choice every woman should make for herself.

Your greatest love story is with yourself

The four women in Sex and the city go through a lot of break ups. Carrie leaves Mr. Big, because she is not sure she’s the one for him. She leaves Aidon too because she is not sure she wants to marry him. Samantha breaks up with Richard telling him: “I love you, but I love me more”. It may sound selfish, but it’s true. If you are losing yourself while you are in a relationship with a man it means you are in the wrong relationship. You should find yourself and learn to be comfortable with yourself in order to have a great relationship with a man. The women from Sex and the city learn this lesson with a lot of tears and heartaches, but it’s worth it.

Happy ending do exist

It takes Mr. Big 10 years to realise that Carrie is the one. He breaks her heart a few times, even gets married to another women and we all hate him. But, the end he admits that she is the woman of his heart. Every one of the girls has her happy ending. Charlotte gets the family she has always wanted. Miranda gets the family she didn’t want she was wanted, but it turns out that Steve has the key to her happiness. Samantha gets Smith, who really loves and supports her. So, happy ending does exist, but sometimes it takes time. It comes when you are prepared for it.

And “after a while, you just want to be with the one that makes you laugh.” Simple as that, right?
