Am I being unreasonable?

Hello, I need advice badly. My boyfriend and I live together and share a one year old daughter and I have a son. First of all, my boyfriend comes in the house and talks to the kids more than me, hasn’t called me beautiful in months. Haven’t taking me out on dates or said I love you without me saying it first in about a month. Then the other day I got a flat on his car and said I will pay him back for it, then the next day I bought some school pictures and his credit card was on file so it was paid with his card. The cost was $20, later that day instead of communicating verbally with me he instead sends me a zelle request for almost $700 (the car repairs and for my son’s pics). I felt as though, wow you can’t pay $20 for my son. Then later that day he says to my son and not me that he’s about to book a flight for him and his daughter only to travel to Texas next month for his niece bday party. Not once did he tell me or invite me or my son, and if it’s money issues why say anything to my son knowing he’s going to want to go as well. Then he calls me not asking but telling me the dates and I said I’ll think about it. Not asking my permission and hurting my son & myself is a no for me. And his parents is going with them as well. I’m at my wits in with the no communication that’s been happening.

Sorry to hear this OP but I think you’ve posted in the wrong place ( boarding).

I’d forget the not telling you I’m beautiful etc if it were that alone. That won’t continue coming thick and fast forever. But the rest definitely sounds off. Is it possible he didn’t want to pay for you and DS/ you guys weren’t invited , so he’s “gone cold” as a kind of justification. Some people do this when they know they are about to treat you badly as if to convince themselves you weren’t getting along anyway / the relationship deserves this step. It’s harder to hurt someone you feel close to so they subconsciously create distance to make the blow easier to deliver. A classic when having an affair/ leaving ( not suggesting that here as much as saying he might have known he was planning to take this trip alone).
