Hm, good thread, gave me much to think about. Anger is a natural emotion, temper is when the anger is handled in a negative fashion - but this is also natural and varies from person to person. I've had bad experiences with people that have bad tempers. My ex for one had a temper and could/would never control it. Sir has a temper, he controls it, and he, also, has a long fuse but you can tell when its been lit >.> I think W/we both hope that I never have to see him in that state. It would be very damaging. But I think we also have an understanding of how we both work. If he is in a bad place, he can go for a walk or cool off, and I'll be a good girl and not do anything to worsen his moods, that includes letting him leave and blow off some steam so I dont get burned. I do get a little lost when he's in a bad mood and there's nothing I can really do to fix it, and though he's a tad callous when he's like that, its not more than I can deal with and he's quite sensitive to changes in my own behavior and reactions. We can handle each other when we have our moods, but I have my own temper.. it makes me wonder what will happen the day we're both at the end of our ropes and if it is something we could survive. For the most part its not something I give much thought to since we both handle our anger fairly well, but it is a possibility and something I should be prepared for if it ever does happen.
