Yahoo! front page wants to warn me about frenemies.
Why wouldn't you take dating advice from a cougar 5 years on the wrong side of menopause?
Without having seen the movie, I’ll go ahead and agree with Miranda because Big is a power-tool. But then, Carrie is so aggressively shallow that she probably deserves to rot into old age with a creep like him. Can’t wait for SatC 2: Havana Nights where poor Ms. Bradshaw discovers that Big’s been married with a family in Queens the whole time and she’s just his clueless mistress on the side.
But I just want to say that I love the concept of a frenemy and would like to see this word get more play in our culture. Even if it’s just being used to describe a friend who is trying to limit your own self-destructive behavior.
There is a whole episode on SATC season 4 about “frenemies”. That plot point on the movie was so ridiculous, I can’t believe Big would use THAT as an excuse to de-rail his wedding. Frenemies are more popular for girls, I think, where the social rules dictate that you be nice to people you can’t stand and you enjoy mind games.

I think to a lot of men, in the twisted ways that our minds work, frenemies = angry hate sex.
