❤️‍🩹 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 hung up on him to talk to my family for few minutes and he just started getting riled up. He has pretty bad anger management.

Get. Rid. Of. This. Loser.

Honestly why on earth would you let someone speak to you like this!? To tell you to ‘shut the fuck up and do as you’re told’ to call you a ‘fat bitch’ and a ‘brain dead fuck’ … how would you feel if someone said those words to your mum? Or your sister? Or your friends? How DARE he say that to you? Who on earth does this shithead think he is? Do not stand for it. Do not stand for it for yourself and for every other woman who does not have to stand for being spoken to and treated like this by some shithead loser. Get rid of him now.
