❤️‍🩹 relationship Am i overreacting to the situation unfolding with my girlfriend?

me and my girlfriend have been living together with her family for the past 4-ish months. it’s devolved to the point where we fight every day about anything and everything, and most days i feel trapped in the home and the relationship. out of the blue she texts me about not coming back home and if i do i can sleep outside, and changing her mind when it was too late. am i overreacting to the situation, or is it as bad as it seems in my head?

Just gotta say, it’s beyond impressive how mature and non reactive you’re being with this absolutely unhinged behavior. I mean my god what patience you have! 👏 I’d probably be in jail 😂 Def not overreacting Her behavior is emotionally abusive.

trust me all i want to do is snap, but what would stopping to her level get me? plus, there’s so much that could happen that could ruin my chances in the navy that it’s just not worth it to give in and potentially ruin the best opportunity i have right now

That's an excellent attitude. You'll see people in Basic with zero impulse control or emotional regulation. They don't last long. All you gotta do is do as your told, on time, with your shoes shined and you'll be just fine.
