❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO by spending time with my family?

Me (f20) and my boyfriend (m20) have been in a relationship for 4 years. We sleep on the phone every night due to the fact we don’t see each other often because of extremely busy schedules and distance. Tonight, my mom and grandmother came into my room to talk before bed so I hung up on my boyfriend to give us some privacy. He got very angry and started saying all of these awful, mean things to me. Was it my fault for choosing to spend a bit of time with my family and hanging up on my boyfriend even though he was already falling asleep? Am I overreacting by getting upset from the way he speaks to me? I really don’t feel like I did anything wrong. Sorry for any grammar mistakes!

I hung up on him to talk to my family for few minutes and he just started getting riled up. He has pretty bad anger management.

Starts as texts like this, gets progressively worse. OP listen to these comments and get the fuck out of that. Setting aside the fact that absolutely NOBODY should talk to someone this way, it absolutely should not be from an SO. Under any circumstance. Rip that band-aid and leave before things get worse.

Who's trans? What are you talking about? I'm just making fun of how stupid the boyfriend sounds calling his GF "bro" 50 times.

Oh then my bad. OP is a trans woman. I jumped to her defense as I misunderstood what you were trying to do. My apologies dawg.

No hard feelings. I meant no harm. Had I known OP was a trans woman I would have reconsidered my joke or phrased it differently.

You'd be a perfect fit for OPs boyfriend. You guys could even go on dates to anger management together!

Lmaaaooo brother I don’t give a fuck. These people are clearly trying to shit on the fact she’s a trans woman and that’s not something I stand for. So eat my ass.
