my boyfriend issues., yes, i know you're all tired of hearing it but im so confused Options

So.. recently his friends have all turned on me and they make fun of me and stuff and he doesnt really stick up for me just kinda sighs and tells them to stop because he knows i expect him to. I mean.. he should right?

Also he also gets really mad at me and yells at me and calls me stupid, hopeless, blind, retarded and sometimes other things its just horrible. Then he tells me I dont treat him good enough just because I hang out with guys [most my friends are guys and they always have been]. He tells me I'm not being the best to him and that seriously hurts me.

He also thinks he's not doing anything wrong.. like at all.. like yelling at me and making me cry every day is healthy or something.

I talked to my mom about it and she told me that mental abuse is just as bad as physical but I dont see it as mental abuse.. he's good, sweet, caring, loving, kind, cuddly, and like a boyfriend most the time.. just not when he's around the friends that hate me/make fun of me. We've been together over half a year and all this stuff just started happening because his friends hate me now.

trust me... dump him before it's too late... my s.o. basically treats me the same way, but opposite... his friends love me and he only degrades me when they're not around... i spent 3 years trying to keep my relationship with my s.o. and when i realized it's not worth it, it was too late cuz now we have a baby... i'm 22 years old and i've seen alot dealing with abuse and such, mental and emotioanl absuse is just as bad if not worse... and will generally eventually lead into physical abuse... bruises will heal, but a broken soul may not... it sounds super dramatic, but once you start believing him, you've already lost... you deserve a guy that treats you like a queen when his friends are around or not...
