Late to the party? This is where it all begins! https://nowaylaowai.home.blog/2026/01/31/this-is-for-the-sex-and-the-city-fans-were-talking-satc-boyfriends/
One of her last relationships is with writer Jack Berger, who has been unofficially crowned CARRIE’S WORST BOYFRIEND EVER. All because he broke up with her on a Post It note. I find this crappy behavior, but consider this:
Berger NEVER hit Carrie.
Yes, he was insecure, but he was coming off a break up with Lauren, and then, when he was with Carrie, his publisher dropped him. There are people who commit suicide for less serious reasons than this. I’m sure he wasn’t feeling confident at this time, but the hard-core SATC fans won’t give Berger a break. But if the same thing happened to Carrie, her girls would have rallied around her. And if Berger had gotten a big advance check and blew it all on dude stuff, he’d be labeled, “insensitive.” He earned his money. Just like Carrie did.
Berger wanted a break. He came back, and quickly realized it was a mistake. And left. And didn’t come back. Unlike Big who always seemed to know when Carrie was happy and did the “I need to talk to you” speech until she broke down.
