I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love.
This whole thing feels very Carrie Bradshaw-ish sometimes. Perhaps I am not as wise or have learned as much, however she is a fictional character who has professional writers actually providing all her wisdom for her. I've been watching a lot of sex and the city lately, even though I've already seen all the episodes. But I do love the parts where she is writing her column the best. In the early episodes it makes me want to take up smoking sometimes, she kinda makes it look sexy. I realize it is not and I am in no way promoting it. Anyways this is besides the point. Today I am throwing all the best Carrie Bradshaw quotes at you, since, fictional or not she is one of my inspirations. Nipigon is far from a city and Sex & Nipigon for some reason just sounds dirty so I'll just stick to the quotes.
Of course there is the famous "I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love."
& here are some others.
“When it comes to life and love, why do we believe our worst reviews?”
“Some people are settling down, some people are settling and some people refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies.”
“After all, computers crash, people die, relationships fall apart. The best we can do is breath and reboot.”
“To be in a couple, do you have to put your single self on a shelf?”
“Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate.”
“When men attempt bold gestures, generally it's considered romantic. When women do it, it's often considered desperate or psycho.”
“People go to casinos for the same reason they go on blind dates - hoping to hit the jackpot. But mostly, you just wind up broke or alone in a bar.”
“Miranda was a huge fan of the Yankees. I was a huge fan of being anywhere you could smoke and drink at two in the afternoon without judgment.”
"Relationships, there are those that open you up to something new & exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up a lot of questioning, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you that you love, well, that's just fabulous." (LOVE this one)
“Maybe there are no right moments, right guys, right answers...maybe you just have to say whats in your heart!”
*and lastly here is my fave! I have been scouring my journal and the web for it, turns out it was in my quotes on facebook:
"Maybe some woman are not meant to be tamed. Maybe they need to run free until they find someone just as wild to run with them."
There it is. Carrie Bradshaw wisdom in all it's sexy Cosmopolitan glory. Until next time,
The Hopeless Romantic xox
