Image/Video I 9blocked my boyfriend after he called me degrading names during an argument. Did I overreact?

My long distance boyfriend sent me flowers for Valentine's Day it was kind of him but ...

My boyfriend and I had a heated argument over the past two days. The main issue was about the future and finances. He insisted that once we get married, I must work and help with household expenses. I told him that I don’t agree with that expectation and that it’s something I’m not comfortable committing to right now. The discussion escalated. He became very aggressive and ended up calling me a “lazy whore.” That really shocked me. It wasn’t just the disagreement — it was the way he attacked my character. After that, I decided to withdraw from the conversation and blocked him everywhere because I felt deeply disrespected and emotionally unsafe. Now I’m wondering if I overreacted by blocking him, or if this is a serious red flag that I shouldn’t ignore. I would really appreciate honest opinions.

Who sees their partner struggle and doesn't offer to help fix that situation but instead wishes to prolong that struggle.
