My senior researcher often disappears from my laboratory. The main reason of it is his girlfriend. The sweetheart monitors his activity so severely that he can't live freely.
For example, when he hadn't met her for over a month, she told him to meet him in downtown of Osaka regardless of his obligation to work in my laboratory. Then, he was likely to be scolded by my professor.
The other example is a frightening event. No sooner had he got up in a morning, he found 50 times incoming call histories on his cellphone all of which was from the frantic girlfriend.
While I felt how difficult it was to be in a relationship with a female, I envied him how deeply he is loved by the girlfriend.
