My Best Friend's Wedding

Since I speak the truth and only the truth on this blog let's talk about how single women everywhere truly wanted to boycott the writer/director/production company for making My Best Friend's Wedding.

I mean really, how many single women really wanted to see the women who had been there for her best friend over the years take a backseat to a younger, off-key singing ditsy blonde. Any woman who has ambition knows that sometimes you have to choose what's best for your career over having a steady man in your life. And if you are blessed, you will have a man who will understand that he will support you while he does his own thing.

But as we know men, think more about their needs than those who love them so they go off and find someone who doesn't even hold a candle to the person who has been there for them before and expect that person to be happy for them.

In the words of my father, "tough titty said the kitty." Yeah, it's a bit crass, but it is the stone cold truth. There is no way you can expect someone who has had feelings for you and has never gotten over them to be truly happy for them. It just doesn't work that way. At least I've never seen it happen.

Yes, Julia Roberts had a friend to help her get over the sting of seeing Dermot Mulrooney go off with Cameron Diaz, but that was just that night. What happens for the rest of the nights of her life? I can tell you what, they didn't show that because then everyone would have run back to the office to get their money. Reality doesn't work in the world of make-believe. Women want their happily ever afters after all they paid their 8.25 for it, so give it to them.
