The Seductive Assistant
I went from a part-time position to full-time, and my income increased drastically. I had over 15 years of experience in my field, so it was justified…except to the guy I was seeing.
To him, a pay raise meant that I was sleeping with someone because an assistant could never become a director without some kind of seductive means. He brought up how I worked long hours when I was doing overtime when my colleague got sick.
And the fact that I refused to break up all my friendships to only spend my time with him meant that I was sleeping with them or else I wouldn’t mind excluding them from my life. Ridiculous. Once, I had a six-hour choir rehearsal.
He knew about it in advance, and I sent him pictures of all of the cakes people brought for a break. But after, I couldn’t reply to him, and rehearsals lasted for hours. He instantly lost it. Apparently, my lack of replies meant that I was somewhere else sleeping with someone.
Anything I did was cheating in his eyes—grocery shopping, seeing friends, going to parties. After breaking up with him, I found out that he was projecting. He even planned to visit a festival with his sidepiece and me at the same time.
I am still baffled how he would have tried to avoid her without me noticing. The two of us became friends after having an interesting conversation. That upset him the most. Story credit: Reddit / (feralheartHH)
