Physical abuse?

I’ll make this short. I’ve always though physical abuse was punching and slapping…..

So my bf got mad I had a romper. I told him I could wear whatever….I told him the fact he gets so protective and paranoid is because of what he does. Told him it’s not like he doesn’t stare at other girls so he knows what dudes do …

He said he wanted to punch me. He lifted his arm then just hit his hand and bit his lips. He then just squeezed my left arm so hard left his finger tips. He told me to shut up
