Sex And The City Breakups That Left Fans Devastated
Matthew Cannon
At the beginning of "Sex and the City" Season 6, Carrie dates Jack Berger. While their relationship never got super serious, fans will definitely remember the iconic breakup scene. Instead of breaking up with Carrie face-to-face, Berger leaves her in Season 6, Episode 7 in the middle of the night, leaving a Post-it note that read, "I'm sorry. I can't. Don't hate me."
As show writer Liz Tuccillo told Elle, "The whole point of 'Sex and the City' in general was to try to find the humor in the heartbreak, in the funny sex, in the everything, to sort of be able to laugh about these horrifying moments." And, for her, the infamous Post-it breakup is just that kind of moment. Men like Berger, she said, "end up being like the worst guy in the world" by accident. While being dumped by Post-it is pretty funny, it would also be pretty hard to deal with in real life!
And, of course, the Post-it breakup now feels a little more familiar. As Cosmopolitan noted, "Now, thanks to texting, it's just another way for an emotionally-avoidant d*****bag to ditch you."
