I ruined my relationship by falling asleep, what should I do?

Question

Boyfriend and I are long distance at the moment. He is coming home this week. Last night we decided to do movie night and both watch a movie at the same time. Half way in I must have fallen asleep for 30 mins and I woke up panicking because I do fall asleep watching movies and he always gets angry when I do. I checked my phone and he asked “did you fall asleep”.

Argument ensued and he is now angry at me. I apologised and said I didn’t mean to. He says I always do it so I should have made an effort to stay awake and he said I ruined movie night and he never wants to watch anything with me ever again. He is now pissed still.

He also said I have ruined him coming him this week because he’s annoyed at me and isn’t even excited to come home and doesn’t want to spend time with me. I’m so upset. I offered to redo movie night but he refuses.

Oh my God stop it that's ridiculous.

He has to understand you are you your world is different than his world you do different things than each other does each and every single day if you fall asleep it's because you're tired he cannot recognize that he cannot accept that that's just unbelievable

I guess I would be in big trouble because the moment I lay on my bed I'm out.
And plus I don't watch TV or movies why don't you throw it at him and say I would rather talk to you all night blah blah blah blah blah instead of watching the stupid ass movie come on I understand it's your guys' time together but to be pissed off like that he hasn't seen you in how long and you ruined it that's called manipulation just like you falling asleep in him being pissed off it's manipulation he needs to grow up start watching cartoons

Okay- I started dating a girls and on our second date we just went to dinner and came back to her place and we watched a movie. A half hour later I notice that she had fallen asleep. After a little while I woke her up and told her that maybe I should go home. She said that she did not want me t go. I said that I should go anyway. I wasn't angry, I just felt that I should go home. I was home about ten minutes and my phone goes off and it is her. She explains that she was not bored or anything but she feels so comfortable around me that she just relaxed and the next thing she fell asleep.

-NO. If you "ruined" a relationship over falling asleep, then that relationship isn't for you. This dude sounds like a utter douchebag.

You should have more self respect, it's bot Something bad that You fell asleep, it's perfectly normal. He should understand You more.

Sure it would be an annoying thing but if I was the boyfriend, I'd just laugh it off. Sleep & recovery is very important. My view would be tha we can always spend time together during others times you're awake. So it's no big deal. I don't like blowing small things out of proportion.

You didn't ruin anything, but your boyfriend is a real clown.

Some people do fall asleep because it relaxes them and if he can't expect that then he isn't a real boyfriend I've fell asleep talking on the phone with my friend and he didn't care
