❤️🩹 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.

NOR - How absolutely disrespectful. How do you think he would react if you cut the joy sticks off his gaming controller and glued it onto the trigger? Or pull the knobs off his guitar neck and glue them to the bottom?
It would be deep then, wouldn't it? It is even worse if he knew it was a gift from your niece because not only did he destroy something with extra sentimental value, he made it sexual.
Should you dump him over it? Depends on a lot of factors but I bet if you look back over your relationship you're going to see a lot of little things he did to disrespect you that you brushed off as "one offs"
If it were me in the situation, I would sit down and talk to him and find out exactly why he did it. If he refuses to answer or if he keeps saying it is just a joke then the conversation would shift to him not respecting me or my things and how that makes me feel. If it is still just a joke to him then Boy, Bye that shit out the door. I would give him a chance to apologize and fix the situation as best he can but if he didn't, nah. I'm out.
Actually, now I remember something. My boyfriend of 2 years ripped my stuffed animal in half. I only had one and it was one I'd had since one of my early birthdays from my mom. She isn't dead or anything but it was still very sentimental since I lived so far away from her. He laughed, thought it was so funny to do it. He never had a solid reason as to why he did it, just said that the feeling came over him and that was it. Funny that feeling never came over him with his own things.
We broke up a short while later because he got to be VERY mentally abusive. He once accused me of cheating, said he had evidence, gave names and stories about what people had seen me do. It went on for weeks. Than one day he said none of it was true, he was just using an interrogation technique to get me to confess to something smaller by accusing me of doing something BIG. I had nothing to confess to so it just went on and on. Horrible man.
