I’m your girlfriend, not your employee: Woman Dumps Boyfriend After He Gives Her Their Relationship a Performance Review and Only Critiques Her

It's that time of year again at work. It's performance review season. You know, where you sit in a tiny conference room, listen to your boss drone on about "areas of improvement," and try not to cringe when they bring up that one email typo from six months ago. But at least there's a slim chance you'll walk out with a small raise. Now, imagine someone bringing that same dreadful energy into your relationship.

That's exactly what happened to this woman, except her boyfriend didn't even bother to review himself. Apparently, he thinks relationships are about "return on investment" and that he's the one managing the portfolio. Not only did he write up a whole list of her supposed shortcomings, but he also had the audacity to say he didn't need his own performance review because he was "already doing enough." Oh, the irony. If you've ever dealt with a partner who's more about criticism than collaboration, this story is a must-read. Spoiler: it's as cringy as it sounds.
