[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In real life Carrie would have gunned for and married the bald schlep lawyer (the writers had Charlotte marry). [b]Charlotte would have married by no later than age 26 or 27, would have 2 or 3 babies on her own by age 30 or so (not adopted), and would have never been friends with someone like Carrie in the first place.[/b] Samantha would be fake nice to someone like Carrie, i.e. professional network, but wouldn't actually befriend her and spend so much time with her.[/quote] Not in NY for the kind of guys she wanted to marry. And there is something up with Charlotte. Besides being annoying AF and super whiny, I always got the impression that she's like, from Ohio. Not exactly to the manor born UES WASP material. As a native Manhattanite it always seemed like all of the characters were putting on a different persona of "being a New Yorker" but Charlotte has that in spades as well in a way that's really desperate and off-putting. [/quote] There are three New Yorks. There is, first, the New York of the man or woman who was born here, who takes the city for granted and accepts it size and its turbulence as natural and inevitable. Second, there is the New York of the commuter – the city that is devoured by locusts each day and spat out each night. [b]Third, there is the New York of the Person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something. [/b] [b]Of these three trembling cities the greatest is the last – the city of final destination, the city that is a goal. It is this third city that accounts for New York’s high-strung disposition, its poetical deportment, its dedication to the arts, and its incomparable achievements. Commuters give the city its tidal restlessness; natives give it solidity and continuity; but the settlers give it passion.[/b] E.B. White, "Here is New York"[/quote]
