This is a very petty situation...

my boyfriend & I made a playful bet as we always do. But this time we bet money ($5) I knew the answer to the question well before we made the bet & I told him that but he insisted we find out the answer. Came to pass I was right. But instead of him saying “you’re right & I was wrong” he says “you’re not right either”what pissed me off is that I know what I said it wasn’t even 5 minutes had passed. So then we were arguing I only got angry because I truly felt like he was trying to play with my mind.
This is called gaslighting. He is messing with your mind. It’s abusive.
Anyone would hate for someone to make it seem as if your the one whose tripping but you know your right. He’s very self righteous & believes he’s never wrong. .I know I was right & he could not tell me different. So we didn’t communicate for a day after that.

I’m usually the one who initiates the conversation after a disagreement. I call him & he says that he wants some space. So I asked “whats space?” He says “I need 3 days to myself I need time to miss you ” I can respect that so I’m giving him his space but hearing that really hurt my feelings. (I’m overly sensitive)No you aren’t. You are normally sensitive to bad treatment and being told you are ‘overly’ by an abuser.

I hate to be vulnerable because I’m at his mercy....
No you aren’t. You are in control of yourself.
to me in this case it’s counterproductive.. when he does decide he’s ready to talk again I’m not gonna feel the same & withdraw..
