my boyfriend said he had to go and that he loved me and i didn't want him to leave and i told him if he left i would dump him. he still signed off, and i dumped him on the phone. and then i called him again and he hung up on me.
who did the wrong thing? me or him? did i over react because he had to go? or was it him?
However, I am here to try to help you. So I suggest going to his house or seeing him at school (if you're a teen), and talking to him alone. Let him know that you're sorry, it won't happen again and that you did over react.

You can't stop your boyfriend from leaving if he has to go; threatening to dump him over something that small is just ridiculous. It's just unreasonable on your part. It makes it seem like you don't care about making the relationship last.
Talk to him tomorrow (if you see him) or if you call him and he doesnt pick up, leave a voicemail explaining that you were overreacting and that you are sorry. Email or note helps too. Apologize about overreacting and tell him how much he really means to you. You might want to mention to him that you want more of his attention and next time, dont dump him over something that small. It makes a relationship hard to deal with. [ Altruistic's advice column | Ask Altruistic A Question ]

I think that might've been it. So, I think you should either (a) write him a note saying you are sorry and it wasn't the right thing to do. Also include that he means so much to him, and you miss him. Also let him know that u want some more of his attention(if thats the reason) and if he loves you, then he will definatly show you more attention. (b) talk to him on tha fone, and say the same thing.
Some people just find it easier to write out what theyre feeling instead of saying something stupid in an argument by accident.
However, if he doesn't accept your apology, let him get over it and cool down. Once you think hes over it, mayb IM him just to talk about whatever. If you feel that the connection is still there, try talking to him again.
