Carrie, Charlotte and Miranda.
If we believe what our favourite fictional women tell us about female friendships, it’s that we have to be “ride or die” - quite literally in Thelma and Louise’s case – to have a true bond.
We’re told that a best friend is someone who will answer the phone in the middle of the night.
That they will drop everything and run to your side the moment there’s a minor inconvenience or an unexpected sighting of an ex (I’m looking at you, Carrie).
Watch: Scarlett Johansson and the cast of Rough Night talk about female friendships. Post continues after video.
A true friend will never let her responsibilities – like a demanding job or looking after children or a doctor’s appointment she booked months in advance - get in the way of giving a friend her undivided attention.
Of course, we know this type of friendship isn’t really accurate.
