-You know married women are threatened because we can have sex any time, anywhere, with anyone.
-We can?
-And they're afraid we're gonna have it any time, anywhere, with their husbands.
-I'd never sleep with a married man.
-What makes you so sure you haven't?

-Are you telling me you haven't gotten those 'poor single you' looks?
-I hate those.

-a loser?
-Leper.

Was Miranda right? Were we enemies? Is there a secret cold war between marrieds and singles?

-When women get married, they forget who they are. ''I'' becomes ''we''.
''We loved the movie.''
''We hate that restaurant.''
We, we, we, we, we.
-My best buddy and I did everything together. Then he married this girl who doesn't like me. Now I only see him on Super Bowl Sunday.
