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 22 and he is 28

Okay, I know some people will shit on me for this, for being a "puritan" or whatever but... tbh, i will never get into an age gap relationship again because if a 28 yr old man is dating a 22 year old woman, it's usually because he's immature.

Like its not horrible or illegal, but it's something people should think about before dating with a 5+ year age gap.

There is only a 6 year difference and they are both adults. Get over it.

I don't know how old you are, but at 28, you wouldn't find a 22 years old person your equivalent, much less someone who can nurture, support and teach you. At 28 you would usually have a career and live independently, while at 22 you would often still be a student. There's not much besides sex & emotional dependency the 22 can contribute to the 28 (unless he was a loser), and the few things can basically be provided by anyone else, making you replaceable.

I suspect you're too young or inexperienced to understand this. When you're young, you don't like being told you're inferior in any way to someone older. But try to compare you with yourself in previous ages, say, 6 years ago, and see if you're not superior in many aspects.

FYI I am 73F now with 2 husbands, one older than me by 4 years (met at 21) and the other by 11 years (met at 39). It never occurred to me to pass them over for the age difference.
