Prank taking too far?
Am I wrong [29F] here?
I was helping my boyfriend by meeting back to house to ensure his car doesnt overheat and cut off. It was on the side of the road yesterday so we were picking it up.. While driving home, a van bumped my car from behind twice at a stoplight. My 1 year old was in the car FYI..I immediately called my boyfriend, and he and his friend started ( on a 3 way call) saying the van might follow me home, which made me panic. I got really anxious and started driving toward a friend's house because they told me to.
Then I realized the van was actually my boyfriend the whole time. He swapped the car for the van bc the car broke down again. It was all a prank. I told him it wasn't funny—it scared me, and I genuinely felt like I was being stalked. Instead of apologizing, he said I "don't know how to take a joke" and said im acting like a b****. He even said his friend thought it was funny too.
I calmly explained that it made me feel unsafe and uncomfortable. I wasn't yelling or insulting him. Now he's packed a bag and plans to stay somewhere else because I said the prank wasn't funny. Also, before this he was upset with me regarding something else so wealready weren't speaking before this.
Am I really overreacting, or was this prank out of line? His friend said I'll get over it and it was nothing
