I had a friend text me and say that he had recently watched Sex and the City 2. Now, I loved the movie despite it's lack luster critiques. However, as I started to think about it Carrie kind of pissed me of in the movie. Here she is FINALLY married to the man who a. broke her heart multiple times and b. drove her penchant for over-analysis into cosmic gears with his apparent emotional unavailability and fear of commitment. In real life, I highly doubt their marriage ever would have happened. Carrie's passion and love intimidated him. Anywho - back to the movie. The girls jet-set off to Abu-Dabi and OF COURSE who does Carrie run into? Aiden. The ex-fiancee who was never really her type anyway. Complete opposites. Well, since Carrie was having one of those "stale" periods in her marriage, i.e. normalcy, she decides to go on a dinner date with Aiden who is also married with kids. At the end of dinner, these two good-looking ex- lovers are taking a midnight stroll through this romantical tunnel in the mystical city and OF COURSE make-out! I know, I know. It was a very Carrie thing to do...she's never satisfied and always looking for that "thrill."
I think the idea it brought me to was why getting what you want still doesn't bring happiness in some cases. I understand that Big was starting to get kind of blah in the relationship but that's when you communicate and make compromises. She should have known better, lol, or at least thought back to all the crap she went through while being single.
Just sayin.
