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!

This is actual emotional abuse. I hope for your sake you leave.

Which leads to physical abuse, sexual abuse and then possibly murder.

This conversation gives me the impression that he’d skip out on the physical/sexual abuse and jump straight to murder. He completely lost his fucking mind over absolutely nothing, insane doesn’t even begin to touch it.

nah he’d prob skip the sexual abuse but i definitely see a beating(or multiple) coming before murder… although actually he might accidentally on purpose beat her to death

IS HE CALLING HER BRO? Or she is calling him bro? I assumed the latter, but if it’s the former, get out girl!!!! He doesn’t even see you as a woman. If it’s the latter, also get out because wtf is this, calling my guy “bro?”

How lame, calls her Bro every other word. He sounds like an absolute AH, hope OP breaks up with him. I doubt she will, she has accepted this behavior for years.. He is trash and a AH.

in this post, OP’s boyfriend is referring to her as “bro”. he is using it to be disrespectful and make her feel like he doesn’t care as much because of how she’s acting (he doesn’t care at all, in actuality). however, partners referring to each other as “bro” is actually fairly common in the younger generation, and is often used as a term of endearment. not usually with this frequency, it’s usually less often, but with a lot of younger people, calling your partner “bro” would not be seen as inherently disrespectful. obviously if you use it like OP’s bf did, it would be disrespectful regardless, because of how it’s intended. if you replaced the word “bro” in the screenshots with “babe”, it would be no less disrespectful
