He's 22 and likes to go out partying with his friends. You're at home angry every time he goes out. This was never going to work.
Personally, if I had a girlfriend who wanted me to text constantly every time I went out, and got angry if I went somewhere else while out, I'd break up too. I don't need a mother nagging me. Getting into fights that often is not a sign of a relationship worth being in.

I never asked him to text me constantly, I just asked for updates. To knows he’s okay. Me being upset comes from him saying he’s staying the night somewhere and then I found out he stayed somewhere else and he didn’t tell me nor did he plan on telling. How would you feel if your significant other said they were staying at a friends house and you found out they were staying at some random person’s house? The anger also comes from him telling me he’s on his way home from somewhere and showing up three hours later when it’s a 25 minute drive, his word were “we are getting in the truck to leave right now and do not to worry about eating dinner alone.”
I want to repeat I’m not angry that he goes out I’m angry about the lack of communication. But I guess according to you I’m the bad guy and communicating isn’t important in relationships.

If he was staying out for the night at someone's house, what difference does it make? The whole "to know they're ok" is something you do with children, not adults. He had no excuse for being 3 hours late when he should have been 25 minutes away, that's inconsiderate. Still, if this is something happening as often as it apparently has, you two just aren't on the same wavelength. I'm not sure there's any point in apologizing when you see him next, best to just move on.
