‘Â Bf told me to pack my bags and leave?’
Every time we have a huge argument, he tells me to pack my bags and leave, saying he doesn’t want me around anymore. This has happened several times now. For context, I tend to speak up whenever I see issues or unfairness in our personal lives.
We’re currently preparing for a major life decision, and we recently had a big argument because his family kept making decisions for us without consulting me. He’s always been the kind of son who can’t say no to his parents, even if they treat him (or us) unfairly.
I told him I was getting frustrated with his dad’s constant bossiness, and he got so angry that he wanted to break up and told me to leave. I was really surprised he did this—again.
I ended up begging him not to break up. Things eventually calmed down, and now we’re talking again. How do I move on from this? It’s making me depressed. So, please tell me, AITA for being a nagger?

Lucky-Effective-1564 − YWBTA if you didn’t do what he said – pack your bags and go. But this time keep going and don’t come back. Don’t marry, have kids with, buy a house with or even get a shared tattoo. Just go.
Admirable-Peach1301 − Girl you need to leave
WaferEither7063 − YTA if you continue this god-awful relationship. Your boy is an abuser-like his Dad. Pack up and leave, love.
Danny_Mc_71 − This best solution is to pack your bags and leave. Life is too short for this nonsense. His parents will always be there to interfere.. NTA.

kitylou − NTA and I’m guessing you’re 25 or younger. Don’t even beg a man, he sounds awful and so does his family
Majestic_Daikon_1494 − Next time start packing your bags and before you’re done he will be the one begging. Why you;’re staying I have no idea though.
Sensitive-Ad-5406 − How did you write all this and not realise what a m**ipulative, s**tty, pathetic a**hole he is?. Pack. Your. Bags. And. Leave.
2Blunt4MyOwnGood − Why on earth would you stay with a man like him? Run far away from him, he’s mentally abusing you.
