❤❤❤ #Repost @dan_clay 🍔BERGER WEEK 🍔 3/3 😡 They say that everything happens for a reason. What if the reason is that some men are bullsh*t? Maybe not every relationship has a lesson. Maybe sometimes you just fall into the wrong hands. As I thought about my life post-Post-It, I realized: I had just been served a Berger with a side of lies. But maybe the Post-It was actually the perfect symbol for our relationship: We were only meant to be temporarily attached. And just like Post-Its, he was tacky and full of bad ideas. Just like Post-Its, he was square and a little too small. I couldn’t help but wonder: Are men with small penises destined to be big dicks? But as my anger cooled, I sympathized with Berger, who ultimately was more insecure than he was a**hole. So I put my middle finger down and picked my telephone up. Maybe everything does happen for a reason: to give you a reason to call your girls. Two paths diverged after a yellow Post-It, and I—I took the one with room for four, and that has made all the difference. #CarrieDragshaw #BergerWeek 💖 If you or someone you love has ever been Berger'ed, Carrie wants to hear your story. Tell us below or thru DM. I might write something a bit longer about how "men are bullshit" but great friends help you break free, not break down, after a break up 😜 In any event, I had so much fun this week. I hope you did too. (at Bee's Hive ;-P)

❤ #Repost @dan_clay ・・・ 🍔BERGER WEEK 🍔2/3 😟 In relationships, sometimes shallow moments can reveal deep truths. And sometimes a tiny hat can become a big deal. As I thought back on a night of insults and insecurity, I started thinking about darkness. Oscar Wilde said, “We are all in the gutter, but some of us are staring at the stars.” Well maybe a good guy boosts you up to reach them. And a great guy makes you feel like you already are one. And the wrong guy tries to darken your galaxy so his can seem brighter. I couldn’t help but wonder: No matter how much progress we make, are some men still threatened by a successful woman? And when our star is on the rise, why do we stick with guys who dull our sparkle? Guys who try to convince you that your intelligence, your passion, your success, or your power is something to be shy about? There’s a crucial point in every relationship, after five or six or seven dates, when you get past pretend perfection and start to get real. Many times this can be beautiful—beginning to love someone, flaws and all. But sometimes, it can be awful, and the real man is not the same as the one you fell in love with. We might all be in the gutter—but my relationship was in the toilet. Because if he makes you feel like shit, he deserves to be flushed. ....to be continued #CarrieDragshaw #BergerWeek (at Glorietta)
