Actresses.

She Doesn' Understand The Hunt.
Men Like
A Challenge.

Kinda.
You Think I'M A B*tch?
Come On, Baby.

All The Time.
I Think You'Re Great.
I Worship You.

On A Pedestal.
Like An Object.

Thank You, Though.
I'Ve Just Been
Working Too Hard
And Just Drinking
Too Much, Smoking
Too Much.
You Know What I Heard
About Your Liver?
You Should Not Have
Anything To Drink
Two Days A Week.
They Don'T Have To
Be Consecutive.
And Of Course You Know
Smoking Is Suicide.
Mm-Hmm.
How Are Things
With Your Boyfriend?
Oh, It'S Over.
Oh, Is That Why
You'Re Depressed?
No, That'S Not It.
I Just Feel Like
I Have The Worst
Luck In The World
When It Comes
To Men.
I Think I Must Be
Doing Something
Horribly Wrong,
But I Don'T Know
What It Is.
What Happened?
Oh, He Has
A Girlfriend.
Oh.
You Know, I Can' Quit Thinking About
How Hard It Must Be
For Young Women Nowadays.
I Mean, On The One Hand,
The World Is Wide Open
To You.
All The Choices You Want.
I Think There Are
Too Many Choices, Really.
It Just Must Be
Very Confusing
To Try To Find
A Path Through All Of That,
Especially With Men,
Though You Have Had
Some Very Nice Boyfriends.
I Know...
But That Was College.
I Don'T Know
What Happened.
I Feel So Closed Off,
So Desperate To Find
Someone To Love.
Oh, Honey.
Even I Can'T Stand
The Sight Of
My Own Desperation.
Honey, Hey,
You Know What?
You'Re In A Funk,
That'S All,
And There'S Only
One Way To Get
Out Of A Funk,
And That Is To
Engage.
Even If You Don' Feel Like It,
Just Fake It.
Just Go Out And Get
The Highest Heels In Town
And Some New Lipstick
And Go Everyplace.
[Laughs]
Smile. Act Like
You'Re Having The Time
Of Your Life.
But Don'T Always Go
With Married Couples.
You'Re Never Gonna
Meet Anyone That Way.
Sure. I'Ll Give It
A Try, You Know.
You Know...
I Could Fix You Up.
No.
Now, Just Listen
To Me For A Minute.
You Know Megan Ross,
My Friend.
She Has A Son.
I Don'T Think You'Ve
Ever Met Him.
Nice-Looking,
Successful,
And I Know He'S Not
Seeing Anyone
Right Now.
Are You Nora?
Yes.
I'M Charlie Ross.
Hi.
Hi.
Nice To Meet You.
You, Too.
It'S Pretty Funny
That Our Moms
Set Us Up.
