Well, with all things considered, the softer seat sounds like your best line of defense from the seat constantly slamming down. If that's not agreeable to him, at least newer seats are tighter and won't slam, either.
I jump at loud noises myself and sometimes things like slammed seats and doors and even the fridge will just go right through me. For a while, that point wasn't seeming to get through to my sons. Sometimes by mistake, I'm certain but I noticed when the seat was first replaced as it's screws were causing it to shift around-can buy for less than $10-- it wasn't coming down with such gusto. Then we wound up with a new toilet after the fact-there was a crack somewhere leaking to the apartment below.
But to DIY grab some non latex gloves and a regular screwdriver and there's plenty of youtube videos out there.
It won't change a thing about your bf but it will empower you to not continue to live under this condition.
