Sex and the Suburbs (not starring Sarah Jessica Parker)


I was thinking the other day, that I know people who match the characters on Sex and the City. Everyone has an idea of who they would be in their own heads, but really appear to be a completely different person. For example, you may think you're a Charlotte, when REALLY... you're a Samantha. Not that being a Samantha is a bad thing, as long as you know you are. Then there are people who are a mix between characters.


For example, I know one person in particular who is a Samantha/Miranda mix. If you asked said person, they would probably tell you that they would be a Charlotte or a Carrie. In the eyes of others, this person is definitely an S&M Mix (Samantha/Miranda). To fullfill the Samantha side, you have to carelessly go through guys, and to fullfill the Miranda side you have to be needy and difficult. Now both characters have good sides too, for example, Samantha knows what she wants, is good at what she does, and gets all the cute guys. Miranda... well ... at least she's a red-head, so I have to stick by her there.


Anyways I guess the point is, in my opinion it's better to know how other people see you and embrace it. It does you no good trying to fool yourself into thinking you're someone other than you are. It's like... Margerine and butter. Of course I can believe it's not butter... because it's just not butter! So at least stop pretending and face up to who you are. Who knows, you may find you like that better than the person you were pretending to be.
