This 30-year-old writer proves even categorically unsuccessful dates have true value.
Let's face it: if your ultimate goal in dating is to find someone to love, then you will likely wind up frustrated at some point in the process. Frustrated with the games, the communication mishaps, the sheer number of dinner dates you have to sit through before finding a love connection. As Charlotte York so aptly stated in one memorable episode of Sex and the City, "I've been dating since I was 15. I'm exhausted! Where is he?" It's a fair question. However, in asking it, many tend to forget that dating is not a very successful endeavor... statistically speaking. Throughout the course of a woman's life, she may go out on dates with 30 different men, fall in love with three, and marry one. It doesn’t take a mathematical genius to figure out that those odds aren’t exactly stellar.
The former 'Sex and the City' star has adopted a new daughter, Gemma Rose.
If there's one thing Kristin Davis has in common with her lovable Charlotte character from 'Sex and the City,' it was a craving for motherhood. And like Charlotte, she's wonderfully got that chance!
Sex and the Psychological City; A Relationship Blog and Love, Sex, Friendship and Intimacy
Welcome back to Sex and the Psychological City! If you have read the earlier posts, you are familiar with my confession that I was a hipper psychotherapist when my go-to girlfriends -- Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha were on the air, with fresh new material on everything from masturbation to marriage. Granted, their wardrobes and lifestyles were totally unrealistic, but the fashion and fabulousness worked well as a delivery platform for groundbreaking discussions about sex, commitment, friendship and love.
The actress plays a version of herself in "I Don't Know How She Does It."
In "Sex and the City," the landmark 90s television series, Sarah Jessica Parker's Carrie Bradshaw character was the dream girl for millions of young women who fantasized about living in the big city, dating hot guys and wearing fabulous shoes (and not necessarily in that order). Now, Carrie appears to have grown up: Parker—as ever, enviably thin, chic, and charmingly rumpled—is starring in "I Don't Know How She Does It," which opens this weekend.
The book turned television series turned movie is back on the small screen... with a twist.
Well ladies, it looks like no one has had quite enough of the Sex and the City franchise. Close on the heels of the announcement of a SATC3 film, the CW has bought the rights to a show based on The Carrie Diaries. The SATC prequel series could hit the small screen this time next year.

Is dating a younger man right for you? For the most part, age is just a number. What matters much more is a compatible level of psychological maturity. By psychological maturity, I am referring to the emotional age rather than the biological one. More and more women are getting graduate degrees, building successful careers, and marrying later, or not at all. Also, single motherhood and sperm donors are becoming increasingly frequent. In other words, women are less likely to need a man to take care of them, and the rules of age-appropriate dating have probably changed forever.
I can't help but wonder if the new TV show will be just as bad as the widely panned SATC2.
Just as we were getting our Dior slip dresses in knots over the possibility of another Sex And The City movie, debating whether Blake Lively should play Samantha or Selena Gomez would make a good Charlotte...they've pulled the rug out from underneath us and are putting the show back on TV.
Sarah Jessica Parker got cold feet about making another film after bad reactions to the SATC2 movie.

On the heels of gay marriage legalization in New York, the SATC actress says "I do."
Sunday saw hundreds of gay couples getting married in New York's city hall. It was the day the new law legalizing gay marriage went into effect and state officials had big plans to marry all 823 couples, both gay and straight, who applied for licenses that day. There were cheers all around the state, and among the elated couples were Cynthia Nixon, of Sex And The City fame, and her longtime girlfriend, Christine Marinon.
