I Have a Temper

I am pretty easy going. It takes a lot to make me mad but once my buttons are pushed, watch out.

Do you have phrases you use that tells the other person you mean business? I do.

If someone is getting close to crossing a line with me, I let them know I don't agree, respectfully.

If the person continues to push my buttons, I will start out with "Here's the deal" meaning I am getting upset.

If the person still continues to cross the line, they get a bullet pointed message outlining exactly why I am mad.

After that, there is no second chance. If I am really angry, there will be silence. That is the calm before the storm and all h**l breaks loose.

It is not pretty and I don't like to get that mad. My family knew when to push and when to stop. If I get so upset to use the Fu** word, the house empties.

You can't take anger or nasty words back so I try to watch what I let loose.

I can usually control it or walk away before I explode and it takes a lot
When I do I speak my mind but I'm not ever violent
