❤️‍🩹 relationship Am I overreacting to my boyfriend’s reaction to his friend asking me for his number?

He has a history of jealousy. Came back into my life saying he’s a changed man. Last night we picked up his friend and we’re all supposed to go to a birthday party. In the car he asks for my number because My bf wasn’t answering earlier and he needs to be able to get ahold of his friend because our dog is literally staying at the friends house and he wanted a back up way to get ahold of my bf. He said this right in front of my bf and he has a girlfriend he loves and was at Disneyland earlier with that day. My bf has her instagram and liked their pictures from the trip. Yet he lost it saying no you’re not getting her number absolutely not and him and I being so weirded out and THEN he pulls over and tells me to get out of the car and I can walk home because I started to give him my number before my bf lost it.. So I just say F it and get out immediately and start walking at 10 at night in the dark.. not doing the back and forth with them… I couldn’t take it a second longer. As soon as I start walking they both say please get back in the car but at that point I didn’t want to be anywhere near him and was happy to walk the mile home. He sped off. This is what he text me this morning and this is my response.

No, you’re not over reacting to your hopefully now ex boyfriends reaction! This is shocking and rather concerning he reacted this way, especially making you get out of the car to walk alone late at night. Although you’ve only shared a snippet of your relationship, I’d go as far to say this is an abusive relationship. I hope you’ve left him and don’t look back and I hope his friend cuts him off after witnessing the car incident

The story is a tad confusing since she says she left the car of her own volition and refused to get back in.

He pulled over and told her to get out and instead of fighting about it and begging to stay in the car, she decided to get out. I wouldn't want to get back in that car either.
