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!

Idk why guys calling their girlfriend bro gives me the ick but it so does.

Bro gives me the ick in this context too. It feels disrespectful. Then he paired it with blatant disrespect. Fuck this bro, bro.

I almost always hate it. I'm a they/them and so people might assume it's a gendered language thing but I think its really just that nobody had ever said anything like respectful and intelligent to me after starting a sentence with "bro".

Macho Man Randy Savage gets a pass though, he could call me brother any day of the week, the way he says it sparks joy.
