Sex and the City was the closet thing to a relationship therapist we’ve ever had. In every episode one of the girls goes through something relatable that helped us through a similar situation. We were obsessed with the show for that reason, and felt that besides their insanely amazing wardrobes, the girls were pretty much just like us.
It’s been over a decade now since the show first aired, and recently while watching re-runs, we noticed quite a few things have become outdated. As two girls, living, flirtexting and shopping in NYC, we thought it’d be fun to compare the changes that have occurred since the Sex and the City era. Say goodbye to Sex and the City, and hello Text and the City!
