Transcript excerpt

If he makes you walk to a car that's more than four seconds away during a night out. If he sits down before you sits down. If he looks at the right side of the menu and not just the left if he has the Gen z posture and hunches like the hunchback of Notre Dame if he airs your dirty laundry and involves third parties in your personal business. If he only gift gives on special occasions and not also on random Wednesdays to brighten up your week. If he wakes you up early while on vacation and forces you down to the breakfast buffet. If what he looks forward to most is a summer beach club with the boys. If he smokes a vape or even worse, asks others to borrow their vape. And if he wears shorts of any kind better than bathing suits while bathing or sports shorts while taking part in sport.
