Edit: I completely do not understand why I am getting downvoted for seeking advice on such a personal issue.
My 17f boyfriend is ok generally. We like each other and so on, but since a few months ago he started ascribing to ‘toxic’ masculinity and has changed ever since. First, it started with the obnoxious yap about how society is hindering men of their masculinity and other stuff like that. Then it started to become more explicit, he would say things like how women are propagated in the workplace and such.
He even attempted to entertain the idea of polygamy being ok. Then started becoming more controlling and judgmental towards me. For example, he always gets nasty when I ‘outsmart’ him. No, I don’t mean it obnoxiously. But if we are studying for a certain class together, and I tend to explain the concepts, he would get mad and rude.. When I got an A on a class he got a C on, he suddenly flipped out and said that my grade does not matter in the large scale and gaslighted me into thinking that he got a bad grade because the education system is ‘against’ him or some shit. Mostly I shut up so that I don’t offend or provoke.
The last straw was him trying to control what I wore and almost hitting me after homecoming due to how I dressed. I am a relatively modest person but now he almost always comments about what I dress when we go out (even when I am wearing a slight crop top with jeans and so on). But on homecoming, I wore a black dress that was not that revealing. Literally what everyone wore. But he was so mad at the whole thing that, ended in arguing and him almost hitting me. He also called me a ‘slut’ which was incredibly hurtful.
He is also always dismissive of my interests. Whenever I am passionately trying to speak about a certain topic he always acts so groggy and rude. I summarized things densely but he has developed a hostile view towards women and I don’t know what to do. I don’t know if I should end things or if this is a phase provoked by toxic media. Either way, his behavior is largely getting weirder and ruder. Now I don’t even want to spend time with him since he always makes me feel bad. But at the same time, I am quite concerned about his turnouts and his increasing anger. Last time we properly hung out has been a month ago or so. Now, the few times i hang out with him is him flipping out and us arguing.
