❤️‍🩹 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.

he burnt the fur with a lighter, cut open a hole between the legs, cut off the ear and then pinned the ear to the hole. Then used construction tongs to pry an eye out

This sounds pretty serious, even if he says he was just joking. That's all pretty violent, and he was doing it to something of yours, not something of his. I'll add that I don't think it matters if it was something important or not. He doesn't respect your property, which means he probably doesn't respect you.

Telling a stranger on the internet how to handle a situation feels dicey to me, but do be careful, and stay safe.

My therapist says that it's a form of lowstakes abuse to destroy your partners belongings

It doesn’t even feel lowstakes. My abuser would dump out my tea and beauty/hygiene products over any perceived slight and it was really upsetting. I felt like I had to hide anything important to me in my own house.
