Should You Text Your Ex? A Matchmaker Breaks Down Carrie & Big (SATC S02E05)

Описание: Carrie goes to a funeral… and suddenly life feels too short not to call Mr. Big.
In this episode, I’m joined by our first repeat guest, dating expert + matchmaker Vana Koutsomitis, to unpack one of Sex and the City’s heaviest (and most revealing) episodes: Season 2, Episode 5 — “Four Women and a Funeral.”

We talk about the real theme underneath the plot: timing—what’s too soon, what’s too late, and how fear makes us reach for the wrong people.

✨ In this breakdown, we cover:
Should you date a widower? Emotional maturity vs. emotional ghosting
Why funerals might be a better meet-cute than dating apps (hot take)
The most important question before texting an ex: “What would need to be different?”
Carrie’s rebound spiral: is she seeking love… or relief from mortality?
Samantha’s power dynamics: when seduction becomes currency (and the cost of it)
Miranda buying her apartment alone—and the pressure society still puts on single women
The episode’s hidden arc: death, rebirth, and the love story with yourself
If you’ve ever wondered “am I going to end up alone?” or felt tempted to text someone you already know will hurt you… this one will hit.
