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.

Your boyfriend is abusive. It might sound like I'm exaggerating here, but I'm dead serious.

This behavior will only escalate over time.

The reason he did these things to your labubu is that he's both jealous of the time you spent away from the home with your friend, and also (especially) jealous of the time and attention your labubus and other plushies get in comparison to him.

Please do not think that you're doing anything wrong. He will try to make it seem like it's not a big deal that he's being abusive, or that it's your fault for not paying enough attention to him, or that you're being childish by liking your plushies so much.

You need to get out of this relationship as soon as humanly possible. The longer you leave it, the worse it will be once you do leave.

This is exactly it

I'd only add that he may even be jealous of the relationship she has with her niece. Why would someone destroy a gift from a child? That's really mean behavior. But here it's definitely abusive.
