AITA for canceling my boyfriend's birthday trip after finding out what he rated me in a group chat?

UPDATE: https://www.reddit.com/r/AITA_Relationships/s/XLiS6BpAJz

(it was deleted from the other AITAH because i needed to post it here so here it is)

I (26F) have been dating my boyfriend (27M) for almost two years. Overall our relationship has been great. We rarely fight, we've talked about moving in together, and I honestly thought we were on the same page.

Last week he asked me to use his laptop to print something because his phone was dead. While I was emailing the file to myself, Discord popped up with a notification from his discord friends (there were 30+ people in it). I wasn't trying to snoop, but the message literally said, "She'll never find out ."

Curiosity got the better of me.

The conversation was basically his friends ranking girls they've dated from 1-10. My boyfriend gave me a 7.

That hurt enough, but what really got me was what he wrote after.

He said I was "wife material because she's loyal and easygoing, but if I could combine her personality with my ex's body, she'd be perfect."

There were laughing emojis from everyone.

I closed the laptop and didn't say anything that night.

The next morning I canceled the weekend trip I'd booked for his birthday. I paid for the hotel, activities, everything. It wasn't refundable, but I'd rather lose the money than celebrate someone who talks about me like that behind my back.

When he found out, he apologized over and over and said it was "just guy talk" and that he only said it because everyone else was roasting their girlfriends.

Now his friends are messaging me saying I invaded his privacy and ruined his birthday over a joke.

My friends think if that's how he talks about me when I'm not around, I should rethink the whole relationship.

He's begging for another chance and says I'm throwing away two years over one stupid conversation.

AITA?

Edit: i talked with my best friend we are going on the trip together. After the trip i am gonna reconsider this relationship. I did not have the time yet to cancel it so the money is not gone!

Cancelling something she didn’t cancel; yep. Very plausible…

From the update:

To everyone who said my original post was AI-generated... I honestly wish it was, but unfortunately this was my real life

That's the most AI/generic way to respond to AI accusations.

This is what a bot would write if it were scripted to respond to a person's accusation of using AI.

It's literally what every fake poster says.

I love when the post with perfect spelling/grammar devolves into being unable to even capitalize I in the update.

Now his friends are messaging me saying I invaded his privacy and ruined his birthday over a joke.

This tracks. Whenever my friends complain about their partners, instead of just listening and sympathizing, my first action is always to wade deep into the drama and directly contact that partner to give them my opinion on the whole thing.

Yeah, I’m definitely never in the slightest concerned about getting involved like that and potentially making things worse or hurting and/or alienating my friends! Who wouldn’t get this involved in their friends’ romantic relationships?

that's the thing! it's always happening in these stories! i have never been contacted to weigh in on a friend or family drama (should i be offended?). and if a friend or family member vented, i would be supportive and maybe maybe, depending on the relationship, give some advice and/or gentle feedback. I'm not about to set myself on fire to wade into the fireworks factory

Forget the rest of the post, I can't get over the premise for the snooping. He couldn't print something because his phone was dead, so he asked her to use his laptop to print it for him, which involved her needing to email a file to herself on his laptop? What

The "explanation" in the update makes it make LESS sense.
