If he's the one who can't handle the breakup then shouldn't he be the one to leave? The knee-jerk assumption that _she_ should leave is an example of the implicit sexism that sucks about our industry.
In fact, I agree with you. He should definitely be gone, not her. She seems to enjoy Tinder the app/product/company, and were it not for him, she would still be there.
The reason that is not the case is because there is a systemic lack of HR or proper channel to report this behavior. But that's another discussion entirely. I'm simply saying it can be a bad idea to start/join a company with your significant other. That doesn't mean you shouldn't do it. But you should realize this is a risk.

Where did I suggest that she leave?
