Urban women don't breed in their twenties. Shortly after, I became a mother too, which is why I was probably so child friendly.
Nobody makes a movie about a woman in her mid-30s who wishes she could have met someone to have children with and still doesn't know where to find a date.
As one does with a first child, I found out that my baby could roll by hearing the sound of her body hit the ground at 4 a.m. and obviously, for any new parent, that is the most horrifying thing that could happen, right? You're exhausted and you take your tiny little baby out and you put them on the bed to change diapers before nursing and you turn around and you discover... my baby can roll! And you think you're going to die.
I know so many women in their 30s who didn't get married, or they did and it didn't work out, or they didn't have children because they were trying to get their careers going, or because they were expected to be independent, plus have a family. They didn't feel secure enough.
There are so many ebbs and flows in life, but when you're raising small children, your family means everything.
Before I had my child, I thought I knew all the boundaries of myself, that I understood the limits of my heart. It's extraordinary to have all those limits thrown out, to realize your love is inexhaustible.
I've been so cool for so long, the split was excruciating.

Everyone constantly taunts you that rebound relationships aren't a good idea and that they don't work. But mine is working, surprisingly. It's lovely to have a man in my life who's cute, intelligent, interesting and complicated, and very supportive.
There's an active movement to turn it into a badge of honor,
Somebody stop me from beeping. Or do you want to see what I'll do next?
He's the best dance partner. The nicest thing about being in the film was being together again. We're old friends, and we had a great time together.
We're in an environment where everyone gets compartmentalized very quickly.
