+1. NYC and DC are absolutely terrible for serious dating.

The Miranda character was so realistic. I an Miranda. I know lots of Mirandas.

Right! And she'd always complain about how her type of men aren't around which confuses me. Surely there was the pool of WASPY young men her parents or her immediate network would hook her up with.

Miranda's storyline was so realistic! Carrie was such an immature brat. Big was so not a catch and she got charmed by his dollar bills.

If this is what you think than you never had a Mr. Big yourself!

+1

Carrie was dickmatized. I thought everyone knew that.

I used to watch SATC but haven't thought about it for years, and I doubt I ever knew Kristin's character's last name.

+1. At first I thought the OP had erred the first name of Beatrice of York.

Most women in NY get married in their early to mid 30s.

Women like Miranda maybe, women like Charlotte are married by 27.

Yeah. Charlotte would've locked down a guy in college and then gotten engaged by 24 and married by 26-27.

The rest of the girls and their plight was very believable. Especially Miranda. Yuck!

Yes but divorced by 30 at the latest.

No way. She wouldn’t have divorced until mid-thirties. She would have stayed married until her kids were in school.

Agreed. Harry is the kind of guy she was most likely going to end up with and be happy long term. As a sweeping generalization guys who grow up around surrounded by Charlottes were probably not in a hurry to get married and not in a hurry to marry someone like their mom, aunt, sisters, etc. Trey wasn't enthusiastic about getting married more like sure why not. Can't remember Harry's backstory but he struck me as a guy who didn't grow up well to do, but did very well for himself as an adult. To him Charlotte was out of his league, end all be all, upscale woman.

+1 ...I grew up in an uppity suburb and then went to an Ivy league college and there were two big bumps in divorces among my peers' parents. A big group that got divorced when the kids entered Kindegarten or first grade, and then it was pretty quiet, then another group that got divorced when their kids were all out of the house/in college.

I’m sorry but this is offensive to LGBQ parents. Knock it off.

No way would Carrie have ever dated all those hot men. Maybe hook ups at the end of a long drunken night, but no way would they have ever wanted her.

Which hot men?????? They were all fugly

THANK YOU!!! The meds were basic at best and most definitely on Carrie’s level. Ugly and homely is Miranda, who didn’t deserve Steve and most definitely didn’t deserve Blair Underwood.

Um...the actress who played her is still single IRL. She finally adopted on her own.

I think the thread is about the character, not the actress. Charlotte was traditionally pretty, marriage minded, and not particularly career oriented. It really didn’t make sense she was single.

She was very picky though. She only dated high status men with elite jobs.
