INTIMACY THROUGH THE AGES…

ONE NIGHT STAND (at age 20):

I’m so urgent to hear from the guy I slept with a week ago, if he’d just fart in my direction, I’d call it love and live on it for a month.

ONE NIGHT STAND (at age 30):

The man wanted me for a moment, not a future. Not even a next moment. 

ONE NIGHT STAND (at age 40):

The problem with men is, if they don’t give me what I want, which is sex, I hate them— And if they do give me what I want, which is sex, I bore them.

ONE NIGHT STAND (over 50):

When young, intimacy to me meant spending serious time with a man: eating, hanging out, going places. Today, having found the Kareoke backing track application, SMULE— (an app which makes possible singing duets with strangers)— intimacy to me means engaging in a three-minute entanglement event through sound, through the voice; then, AWAY!
