Do you know any one who's right for me?

[I didn't see Mr. Big for eight days!]

That was a great meal!

Yeah, it was!

The food was terrible, and we were talking to eachother like strangers. what is wrong?

Look, you tell me you have an ex-wife. you tell me you guys had a three-way, yes, i asked! you drop this big bomb, and you don't give me any details. you didn't tell me why you broke up!?

I cheated on her!

I know! she told me at lunch!

I know! she told me she told you!

That's another thing: you didn't tell me that your'e still talking to her!

I still talk to all my ex-wives!

I'm so not finding that funny!

oh, come on ... wait a minute! the reason we had threesome is because we were both looking for something or someone else! Dou you know anyone who's right for me?

[ Then it was just the two of us! and i realized the real appeal of the threesome: it was easy! it's intimacy that's the bitch!!]

The past was sleeping right next to me!

[That night i thought i could put the whole Barbara thing out of my mind. after all Mr. Big was with me now!!]

Barbara: nibbling his ear lobes? how sweet! let me show you how it's really done!

[ So i guess you couldn't avoid a threesome because even if you're the only person in the bed, someone has always been there before you!]

What just happened? where'd you go?

I was preoccupied!

No kidding! about what?

[ your ex-eife's breasts, your ex-wife's lips, your ex-wifes long legs!]

My column!

You know, i didn't tell you i was married because it was a long time ago!

What happend?

Alienation of aafection followed by divorce! let's not talk about the past! please!

[What Mr. Big didn't realize was the past was sleeping right next to me!!!]

Which one?

I seem to be the only person in New York who still believed in the one - on - one relationship!

Mr. Big and i were actually doing sleep- overs!

Which one?

This one!

You better be careful! i could get used to this!

why is it that putting a tie around a man's neck is sometimes even sexier than taking it off!!??

What are you doing for lunch today? i could maybe swing an hour between mettings!

No. sorry! i can't! i have to inteviw someone.

About what?

Threesomes! Ever go to one?

Sure! who hasn't?!

Really?! with who?

My ex-wife!

[Suddenly my column was the last thing on my mind!]

You were married?

Yeah! i thought i told you!

No, you didn't!!!

Only have One!

Forty-five minutes later, i realized i was alone in a park at 3:00 a.m. and that it was time to call it a night!

What are you doing back here? you said meet out front!?

This is the front!

This isn't the front! this is the back! i've been waiting out front for 30 goddamn minutes!

You see those doors? tha's the front. you were waiting at the street entrance!

The street entrance is the front entrance!

Depending on where you're coming from!

Ok! i'm here! Now, what's going on?

I've done the merry-go-round! i've been through the revolving door! i feel like i met somebody i can stand still with for a minute and ... don't you wanna stand still with me?

You drag me out here at 3:00 a.m. to ask me if i wanna stand still with you?

Yes!!

[ In a city of infinite options sometimes there's no better feeling than knowing you only have ONE!!]

Say hello, Jared!

Hello!

I just wanted to let you know i'm at this very cool party for very cool people under 30 and this very cool writer wants to take me home!

What? what the hell happened to you?

His name is Jared. He's really cute and really successful and he just put his arms around mehere! Say hello, Jared!

Hello Jared!

That was Jared!

Carrie, Just get over here!

No, you get over here!

I can't! I don't know whrere you are!?

I am at the Luna Park cafe. meet me out front, your'e name not on the list!

Are we dating?

So, whose very crowded apartment are we in?

he's an old friend of mine! remember Becky's his second wife ! she's a doll! you'll love her!

Hey, there, stranger!

Melissa!

This is Carrie Bradshaw!

Hi, i love your column. never miss it!

Oh, wow, thanks!

I've been trying to call you! you still have my passport!

She's a friend i once traveled with!

Internationally, i would imagine!

Let's find max! Hey max!

Hey, i glad you could make it!

How are you, Max? I want you to meet someone very special!

Julia?!

Actually it's Carrie!

Carrie, Well, welcome!

Crrie writes this fantastic column in The new york star. it's called "sex and the city".

well, if you're looking for material, tou're dating the right man!

Thank you Max. thank you vary much!

are we dating? i thought we were just sleeping together!

Well, i'm sure after tonight we won't be doing much of either!

Excuse me!

I'll be right back!

Carrie! Carrie! you've got to be kidding!

How many women are you dating?

In the tri-state area?

Let's see! there's me, Julia and let's not forget "international Melissa"!

Carrie! i'm not doing this here!

Can't we just enjoy the party?

I don't know!

Oh, come on! i mean, what do you want from me?

What do i want from you? Nothing! i don't want anything from you! i have to go! i'm sorry!

[I felt like a fool! i had gone so fore out on a limb with my feelings that i didn't realize i was standing out there alone!]

I miss you, Baby!

Well, Hello!

Oh, Hi!

I'm just calling to confirm tomorrow night. are we still on?

Yeah! of course! we are! why wouldn't we be?

[ I was striving for noncommital, but i was worried i had bordered shrill!]

I'll pick you up at 8:00.

Yeah, 8:00's fine!

I miss you, baby

Yeah, me too!

[ There were so many questions i wanted him to answer, but not ask, not tonight atleast! Nope!]

Are you on a date?

Surprise!

Hey carrie! how are you?

Good! Good! i was just here with my posse having dinner and saw you!

Oh, carrie, this is Julia Woods. Julia, Carrie Bradshaw!

Nice to meet you!

Can i talk to you for a second?

Sure!

Are you on a date?

Sort of!

I thought you said you had a business thing tonight?!

I said a "dinner thing"!

Well, she's stunning! and i should know, because frankly she stunned me. well, enjoy your dinner!

Are you okay?

Oh, sure! i was just ... you know, i just didn't realize you were dating other women!

Not alot of other women! why don't we talk about this suturday?

Sure! Sure! Sure! So, then, enjoy your dinner! Oh, i already said that! well, enjoy it twice!

[ TRue, we had never discussed exclusivity! but while for me the idea of seeing another man would be like trying to fit another outfit into an already overstuffed suitcase! Big was happily dating another woman like it was the most natural thing in the world! is it that men have an innate aversion to monogamy or is it more than that? i wondered! in a city like New York with its infinite possibilities has monogamy become too much to expect??]

Us!!!!

The island of Manhattan is a cozy village pupulated by more than seven million fascinating individuals who all behave like the own the sidewalk. But lately it seemed as if the entire city had been magically reduced to only two people: US!!!
Four-hour conversation flew by in a space of 15 minutes and a few days apart felt like weeks. I realize the Einstein's law of relativity would have to be amened to include a special set of rules those explain the peculair effects of infatuation!!

You and me... For real?!?

Very late that night, fueled by a massive quantity of champagne, i decided to say good-bye to Mr. Big!

I just come here to tell you that if tou're embarrassed or ashamed to be involved with me in any way that we can no longer see each other!

The truth is i blame myself! i wore the naked dress on our first date! i slept with him too fast! and now i'm on a fifth avenue bus with a pe... on my head!!

what are you talking about?

You won't introduce me to your friends! you bring me back to that resturant where men take women they don't want to be seen with! you won't come out and meet my friends! you have me in a niche! Certain events! Certain resturant! Certain people! like i'm only a particular fragment of the kind of person you think you should be dating!

But, i've only gotten to konw a particular fragment although i'm beginning to know more!

No! this is not me! this is me reacting to your perception of me!

Oh! Ok! well... i think Fung Wa is the best Chinese food in the city, so that's why we went there! and the guy we met in the street i couldn't remember his name, which possible means i have alzheimer, so that's what that was about! and this afternoon i had courtside tickets to the Knicks and that's all folks!!!

I should have been jumping for joy, but i only felt a hard knot of fear!

So, you and me ... then maybe this is for real?

Could be!!!

The evidence was mounting!!

I also tried not to let it bother me that he took me back to FungWa, scene of our postcoital dinner!

Oh! I can't make your party tomorrow!

Oh, no! i wanted to introduce you to some of my friends.

Well! i'll be home later if you miss me!

As i survyed the room, i realized it smelled like a cheap date you don't want anyone to meet. i told Mr. Big i was on a deadline and i hat to get home.

The evidence was mounting!!! Was it possible that i had become Mr. Big's secret sex girl???
