AITAH for saying my partner isn't a nice guy for walking me to the campsite bathrooms?

I don't think I am, but this keeps getting brought up and I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

I (27 F) have been with my partner ??? ( 38M) for 3 years. We broke up recently due to the way he treats me. We are in a weird limbo state because he agreed to go to therapy. I don't think that will fix the issue, though.

Onto the problem. He keeps bringing this up, not me.

A few weeks ago we went camping. The site was new to me and I am unfamiliar with the area. Another thing to note- I am completely night blind. Once it's dark, I cannot navigate. This is important and he knows this.

We were having a good time. Had a few beers and the fire burned down to coals. I asked him if he could walk with me down to the bathrooms which we're about .75-1 mile away. I knew the general direction, but not where they were. He did because he had gone earlier in the day.

I asked him to walk with me and he said "No. You're an adult. Go by yourself or pee in the woods. "

I asked again and explained that 1. It's dark. 2. I can't see. 3. I was a little intoxicated and 4. I'm a woman walking alone in the woods and I would appreciate his company so I felt safe.

He then yelled at me and said I 'cant do anything like an adult and all I do is rely on him and make him baby me. Stop being a child."

This made me cry because I couldn't believe how 0-100 he went. After I cried, he walked me down and stomped the whole way. Like military stomps. He wouldn't speak to me and stood outside the door. On the walk back he walked so far ahead of me that I couldn't see anymore and did get a little lost.

He claims now that he 'was a loving partner and walked me down to the bathrooms even though he didn't want to" He told me that his therapist said I was being unreasonable and manipulative, which I'm having a hard time believing.

Note - I do the financial heavy lifting, I got him his current job and I do the household work as well. I know I am a good partner and I feel like I'm being gaslit.

So reddit. AITAH?
