Today, my drunk boyfriend flipped out and told me I was a total control freak, and that he couldn't handle how weird and clingy I am. All I did was ask if his phone was charged. FML

If that really is all you've ever done then of course your life sucks. I can see a proper talk is in order here though, as it looks like you may be doing more than you think

Drunk people do/say stupid shit so don't take it to heart but maybe bring up the topic when he's sober

Somehow I feel this might not be the all there is to this story.

I feel like these encounters are almost always taken out of context.

Drunk words are sober thoughts. Might be worth talking to him about when he sobers up.

It's possible ur bf has been bottling up things that have been bothering him 4 a while. That's the problem with bottling things up, people never see the millions of reasons that have been leading up to the outburst, they only ever see the "straw that broke the camels back" moment that was just the icing on the cake and don't bother looking any further. Just coz it might SEEM like an over-reaction on the surface to what you deem a small thing in that moment, doesn't mean it's not deeper than that.

You've asked him about his phone thousands of times if he reacted like that. It probably died once now you always think it's going to happen. Just saying...

My wife does some of this. I made a mistake on something once, in my head I learned my lesson and likely wont do it again, but she is trying to be helpful by reminding me, I know that but still cant help get defensive at times because it hurts that I think she expects me to continue screwing up over and over again.

Are you a teenager? Why is this a big deal? Just laugh it off and mock the shit out of him later.

It sounds to me there's some things he needs to talk to you about, and some people don't have filters while drunk either. Hope it all gets sorted OP!

drunk or not, when someone immediately becomes defensive about thier 'personal space' which is what his phone is, it usually means they are hiding or feeling guilty about something. i can prove it... ask to borrow his phone for a google search. if he hands it to you, i am wrong, if he gets defensive, you'd better talk.

Op, depending on how drunk he was, I don't think you should worry. If he was wasted, he probably had no clue what he was saying. If he'd only had 2 drinks and was able to think logic, then you should probably ask him about it.
