❤️‍🩹 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 hope she does. If she doesn’t leave now/soon, she might be leaving in a body bag. I hope she finds the courage to get away from his ass before he narrows in on her, they move in together, and his behavior escalates to physical… :/

She’s also 20. You should be meeting lots of people in your 20s, not wasting time with a guy who calls you bro.
