Hmmm, how to explain.
If it's my mother or my son, I yell. There is something about their personalities that makes my blood boil and I blow - like dropping nitro - boom!
At work.......I get super, super quiet. But I tend to have a bite to any comments I make for several hours. If pushed continually, I snap at them, and then leave so that I can cry. I
always cry after I get mad, always!
Other people, I just shut up! I get super, super quiet and back off!
In a relationship, I tend to panic and get
away from the situation as fast as possible until I "deem" it safe to return.
I guess I am a complicated person sometimes.....sigh.
