My boyfriend gave me a performance review for our relationship.
By @remykay · Hot Takes
He sat me down with bullet points and graded my communication, punctuality, and domestic effort on a literal scale. He claims it was just a playful way to talk about future goals, but I feel like I just got summoned by corporate HR.
The full story
He walked into the living room with a whole spreadsheet open on his iPad. He gave me a genuine PowerPoint presentation analyzing my driving habits, grocery choices, and how many times I snooze my alarm, and then slapped a literal letter grade at the end. A B-minus. I laughed because I thought it was a bit, but then he sat there looking deadpan and said he expects quarterly improvement before we talk about moving in together. Now I’m half amused and half wondering if I should run.

@willayk — nahhh
@coleforsure — My ex did this with my spending habits on a whiteboard in our kitchen and then acted shocked when I packed my bags two weeks later.
@willaok2 — put him on a pip immediately and demand severance
@tesskay — Cooked.
@oscarkinda — Oh honey no, a relationship is not an office job. You deserve someone who loves your quirks, not someone grading your alarms!
