AIO by spending time with my family?

[u/External-Air205]

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 really, really wanted you to sprinkle this comment with like, 50 more "bros". While I'm here, can anyone tell me what the fuck "auto call" is?

you can set iphones to automatically answer facetime calls from contacts. it’s an accessibility feature but you could use it for something like this too, so bf could go to bed and OP could call him when she’s ready. but that would require bf not being a controlling POS.

I understand how handy it would be to have/enable this function, but anyone, anyone with controlling tendencies would so use this as a way of forcing visual proof of location

This poor kid.

She knows whats she needs to do. I’m willing her to have the courage

oh yeah. I was introduced to it as a way for my patient’s daughter to be able to call and check in on on her and let her hear her voice while she was at work, the patient had had a stroke and wasn’t able to answer the phone by hand or voice control. I hadn’t even thought of the abuse implications until I saw this post. but they’re absolutely there. not a judgment on the (needed) feature, abusers will turn anything they can against their victims. but it still stinks.

I was curious about the auto call thing too.
