Again with Sex and the City?

When I hit 22 I became obsessed with Sex and the city. You can go back and read my blog and trust me when I say you will lose count of the plethora of references to sex and the city. It was not until last year that I gave up on the whole hunt for mister big. I had come to terms that Doctor MeTo was just who he was and not Aiden and that Mister M was just who he was, not a Mister Big.

For years It had drove me crazy hoping to find Mister Right, the man who would be there for me and thinking that it was someone I had already dated only created problems where they did not exist. The New Year brought a new awakening. Doctor MeTo in short was the biggest disappointment and would always be remembered as such and Mister M was a true friend. There were other Exes such as Eddy and Mister Cocky and Lou who had taken their places in my life.

Eddy Was the friend who would never let me go, Mister Cocky was a waste of time and Lou is another blessing, he is a best friend.

MeTo is out of my life he decided to cut me out for the last time and so I blocked him from ever being able to contact me. Cocky still has no clue as to what he wants, he claims he wants to be friends but cannot see me in person because of his sexual attraction to me. Whenever I talk to him on the phone it always turns into him wanting another chance and begging me to have sex with him to see if we have feelings for one another. I have decided to cut off communication with him as well.

As for Eddy he is still dealing with cancer and wants us to try and be in a relationship but I just cannot see it ever working. We are far too different and he is way too young. Lou and I are planning to move in together around April or May.

Ultimately my plan is to continue working, go on as many trips to as many different places as I can then pick the one that I have the most love for and move. I am over looking for love in Philadelphia. One night I was talking to Lou and he mentioned how a certain relationship still had traces of comparison to Big and Carrie. I was disappointed, I don’t want to be able to compare my life or the people in it to anyone in some show or novel. In my early twenties my friends and I did it all the time from Noah’s ARC and Sex and the City to Queer As Folk and Real Housewives of Atlanta. It was exhausting and gave us all warped images of reality.

Sometimes you do get the classic happy ending where the two of you realize that all the time you loved each other and were meant to be but more often than not you fall for someone else that you thought you would never fall for and end up having a life better than you had imagined. The key to it all is you have to always let go of the past and stop forcing things to happen. Carrie only got Big after she decided to let go of New York and the idea of finding her one true love there.

Great things happen when you open your heart to the possibility that there is something better for you than you can comprehend. True happiness is always beyond comprehension. We create in our heads these scenarios where we will be happy, we imagine how prince charming or mister right will come along, what he will be wearing and we shut out the possibility that we are wrong. The result is a life of searching when several times over we have come in contact with the person or on several occasions we would have met the one had we been more apt to move on from our current situation.

A lot can be said for television it is always entertaining and inspired by real life but some of the most entertaining moments in our lives are boring to others. Here I am sitting in Las Vegas in the apartment of Mister M playing out the same scenario as always, except this time I recognize it for what it is, this is our friendship this is how we operate. I cannot hold out in hopes that he will come to me one day and tell me I am the one. I have to accept that the future is the future and I must live my life recognizing that I have no clue what is going to happen. All I can do is ensure that I am happy in my present.


My early twenties have taught me a lot and made for some entertaining blogging but 30 is not far off and I feel as though I have not lived my life because I have always been searching for love, promising myself that the fun part of my life will begin once I have met my husband but I have to ask myself, will I ever find a husband? I have to enjoy the now and leave the future in the future. MeTo was a basket that carried a lot of my eggs and that basket had holes and eventually it fell out of my life. No matter how close someone gets to me I will always remember how badly I felt when he toyed with my heart like a cat with a mouse. I can never allow myself to wallow in such emotional tumultuousness I must look out for myself and remember that if I cannot keep myself happy then I cannot expect anyone else to do it for me and I will not be able to make anyone else happy. If I am happy as a single person then there is no need to rush and find love no matter how small or Big.
