I slept at my boyfriends place and earlier when we both woke up, he said hello and went straight on his phone. He never usually does this and it’s a big pet peeve of mine. Usually I’d have felt ignored, useless, unimportant, not good enough, etc. But I actually thought “I can’t be bothered for this”. So I got up and left and went home.

Admittedly, I was a bit angry at the time. I said I’d rather be at home than ignored and walked out. As soon as I got home, I was perfectly happy and cheerful again.

I don’t think what I did was bad. I’m proud of myself for not breaking down. I’m proud I decided to do better for myself and leave and do something I enjoy. He angrily texted me saying I should have just told him what was going on and that he’s the ignored one. In my eyes, I’m letting him be happy and do what he wants, and I’m going to do the same. 

What would you have done in this situation? Was I justified? Would you have just walked out too?
