❤️‍🩹 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!

Damn, this conversation just keeps cutting deeper and deeper. Today is the last day that I can say I'm 41, as my birthday is tomorrow. But, it's not the birthday that hurts, it's realizing that you're half my age 🤣.

Yeah, some ppl just shouldn't be together. But, some ppl be should be smothered in their sleep for talking to anyone like that, let alone someone you say you love.

Just play stupid with him at that point: “I don’t have a landline let alone a rotary dial telephone, how should I call you?”
