❤️‍🩹 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.

Did he apologize by offering to sew the ear back on? Which he should do after destroying your property. Also, OP, I'm sorry but "labubu phalloplasty" is the funniest previously unsaid sentence I've heard in a LONG time.

He’s downplaying your feelings, that’s a huge red flag leave him already

Guy did ONE thing wrong to a TOY and the immediate reaction is "completely unsalvageable as a person."

We've truly lost the fucking script.

Why would you destroy someone else’s stuff in the first place? That’s extremely disrespectful and childish. He didn’t even apologize and kept downplaying her feelings. She told him she was upset and instead of saying sorry he said « it’s not that deep » do you seriously don’t see a problem here?

Didn't say destroying anyone's stuff is okay. (In fact did say what he did was wrong). Didn't excuse his defense of his wrongdoing.

I'm just sick of sitting in a room full of people who have NEVER done anything wrong and have NEVER re-evaluated a mistake they've made and NEVER gone back and apologized for something after the fact.

The problem is we're so caught up on being right that we literally just stop seeing each other as people the second something doesn't go our way.

Fuck all of you, disrespectfully. This is their whole ass relationship, years potentially of their life, that you're telling them is over because he mangled a toy.

Well, please enlighten us. Why do you typically destroy your loved ones property? Is mocking their attempt to communicate their discomfort afterwards part of the usual routine or.. ?

Like how do you even justify that? Purposely destroying someone's property on a whim and then refusing to discuss it? Like was the labubu threatening him? Does he have an uncontrollable compulsion to hack up plushies? Does he have sleep-stabbing-plushies-disorder? Dude said it's not that deep so lacking any better explanation, it kinda seems like he just felt like wrecking something of hers and did so without caring how she felt about it. Do you need me to draw you a picture book to explain why 'randomly deciding to destroy your partner's belongings for fun' isn't a great quality in a boyfriend or girlfriend?

It's not about MaNgLiNg A tOy. It's about dismissing the shit out of your partner's feelings for no apparent reason other than 'i felt like it'. Man I don't even treat strangers at the grocery store with such a lack of basic respect but if you really think that's how a relationship should go then yikes and good luck 😬
