Perhaps it wasn’t the best idea for my friend Mallory, who owns her own accounting firm, to date Henry, her recently-hired assistant (and her only employee).
“Maybe it was the fact that I had all the power over him,” she said. (And signed his paychecks.)
For example: “We were getting in the car, and I was locking up and I said, ‘Will you take this to the car?’ and handed him my laptop bag. He walked out to the car with it and instead of putting it in the trunk, dropped it in the middle of the road,” Mallory said.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“I asked him, ‘Why did you do that?’ and he said, ‘because you didn’t say ‘please.’ You have no respect for me.’”
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mallory said this was an ongoing issue: Henry would constantly accuse her of having “no respect for him,” which was HIS paranoia and not true (at least not at the beginning).
Constantly, he’d try and wield what little power he could come up with about the most ridiculous things.
“Once I shut his laptop without turning it off which turned into a fight about ‘me not having respect for his property,’” Mallory said.
Hahahahahaha
(Uhhhh she has no respect for his laptop because she closed it without turning it off, yet he drops her laptop in the middle of the street to make a point???)
Of course their “fights” were always about a laptop. Because that’s literally all Henry had to work with—hahahahahaha
But Henry insisted that he was fine staying at her place.
What the hell, Mallory thought.
They had a fun couple of days together sleeping in the same bed and playing with his dog that she missed terribly.
But she couldn’t help notice that Henry was on his phone, constantly texting.
After some prying on her part, it came out that Henry was actually dating someone in his hometown. For the past three months.
Ugh.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
