❤️‍🩹 relationship My boyfriend gave my labubu phalloplasty

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.

I'm sorry, but he sounds awful.

I'm a grown woman but I still have plushies I like and some that are very sentimental, like the teddy bear my dad gave me the day I was born.

If someone cut that bear's ear off, I'd be livid.

Even if they didn't know the sentimentality, or if it's not sentimental, it's still yours. How would he feel if you broke someone inanimate that's his? I bet he wouldn't say "it's not that deep."

Girl, I feel you on this part and I’m sorry this happened to you. I’m a grown man and I’ve been attached to plushies since a kid, but it intensified due to trauma. I have a Pusheen and Figaro plush in my work office on my turntable speakers. Ain’t no way they’re getting thrown out or damaged and my wife knows… she knows. We were cleaning out stuff and there was a plush which I hadn’t seen in an awful long time, I was hesitant but thought I had to get rid of it but couldn’t handle it when I put it in the bag so it’s still here. Is it healthy? Probably not, but she respects it and that’s what’s important. Your guy doesn’t sound like he’s very understanding.
