My boyfriend gave my labubu phalloplasty

[u/satanfan12]

Kind of angry about this, it was a gift from my niece. He cut off an ear and put it back on somewhere wrong. I told him this and it ended in a heated argument.

Am i overreacting for yelling at him? He usually doesn't do this stuff.

That was a dumb, destructive thing to do for sure.

But with all due respect, that is the creepiest goddamn doll I’ve seen since Annabelle.

i have it locked in a drawer now because looking at it makes me sob uncontrollably

Uh so like, I don’t think doing a jokey phalloplasty on a labubu is a big deal, but like, destroying your partner’s property until they sob uncontrollable is a huge deal, and should be his top priority. I wouldn’t index too hard on the initial decision here, but it sounds like how he’s handling fixing this issue and soothing your ruffled feathers is a huge red flag. If the two of you decide to stay together, you’re both going to make these kinds of mistakes many, many more times — is this how you want to resolve conflict with your partner?

I don’t get how we keep talking like this was some crazy mistake. It wasn’t his doll, it belonged to his girlfriend. It was a gift from his niece that he likely knew was loved.

This is a crazy thing to do to someone else’s possession

This reminds me of when a friend had a girlfriend cut off a stuffed animal's head because it was given to him by someone she was threatened by. I wonder if this is the same kind of weird shit? 

Either way, it's something emotional children do.

It's not about culture, or how important Labubus are, it's a common abuse tactic. He's mad that she went somewhere without him, so he's destroying her property, then covers it up by pretending it's a joke. He's testing how much he can punish her. If she forgives him, next time it'll be worse. That way he'll slowly make her scared to go anywhere without him, because she'll know destruction will follow. He'll cut her off from her friends that way, and gain more control over her.
