I was a very outgoing, gregarious, full-of-energy kid.

I was married in my 30s, in a long relationship for about seven years, got divorced, and then I had a string of flings, and then was single for two years.

I have met a lot of guys in their 40s who have the maturity of a 15 - year-old and men in their 20s who have older sensibilities. They just need to live in their own apartment. That's kind of a deal breaker.

Everyone's "journey" is different. Obviously with mine, I've had some amazing breaks, but then you have to be ready to seize the moment when the timing and the luck line up. You can't be afraid. You have to be open. I feel like I've always been a leaper, and I've always leapt into things without thinking.

I think Amy Sherman-Palladino has a very specific voice; it's unlike anyone else on television.

I know a lot of people that have been in long-term relationships where cheating has happened, and their marriages and their relationships are actually stronger because it was a mirror that reflected back on a problem that was happening. It's hard.

I've never lied about my age.
