^^^^ This.
When I was younger I also wanted to talk things out/settle an argument as soon as I became upset. I couldn't let it go and that was problematic for my relationships. I am older and wiser now and although I am not in a romantic relationship anymore I have learned as a parent that sometimes waiting to discuss a problem is more effective.
Technically I am not certain if what you describe is abuse but nevertheless it is unhealthy and unproductive. I hope your partner can learn how to discuss problems in a healthier way more quickly than I did.
