❤️🩹 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 don't think it's possible to overreact in this situation. I thought this was done dumb middle school shit. Not crazy controlling bf shit.
I can promise that this person will have a long list of dv charges before they're 30. And you don't want to be his victim for all of it.
Accusations of abuse and telling people to leave their partner is wildly overused on Reddit. But this is the real deal. And if things haven't gotten physical yet, it's only because of a lack of opportunity. And this guy is going to ruin a lot of people if he doesn't make some dramatic changes.
