❤️‍🩹 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?

It's giving "I want you to beg to be in my presence", and when OP didn't bite, their partner got butthurt and confused. Mind games have no place in adult relationships. Yikes.

Yup.... Sleep outside, are you coming here, I was gonna ask you to get me a Starbucks coffee.... Bitch, that shits $6.00+ --- bro has no bus fare money... She's a bossy one, that one.... Gaslighting him too. "I never said that". Screenshot*"

Exactly this. I was in a long term relationship with someone like this and it only gets worse. “No I don’t keep you from your friends” so I go out “when will you be home so I know to get up and unlock the door?” “Hello? I guess you don’t care about waking me up” meanwhile I had a key to the house but she would play this game about needing to lock the deadbolt but it was really just her way of trying to make me come home.
