Look, friendships are messy, complicated and far from perfect. And perhaps it’s actually quite comforting to see that pop culture’s golden girls have cracks and shortcomings like the rest of us, too. But I can’t help but wonder, is there such a thing as being too open with a friend? Too close?

“Healthy friendships allow us to be ourselves while providing a safe space and a place to “come home” to,” explains Dr Jeanina of the Chelsea Pharmacy Medical Clinic. “But we should be prepared, a lot of the time, for the advice and comments from our friends to be delivered with best intentions, but perhaps in ways that are hard to hear.”

“Friendships are one of the most important relationships one has, and are key to us feeling safe, being able to be vulnerable and trusting those around us.”

I guess that rings true as, despite it all, in And Just Like That’s second episode, Miranda and Charlotte join together to support Carrie after Big’s death, but not without some typically self-serving dramatics from Charlotte first.

But what’s important is that they do come through. Even though she was one of his loudest critics throughout the series, Miranda shares heartfelt words about how lucky they all felt to have known Big, albeit for a short time. And in spite of their feud, Samantha sends flowers and a simple note to let Carrie know that she’s thinking of her.
