I think I'm the one with the temper LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper/page/2#post-278000 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 09:59:34 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 278000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He doesn't have a temper. Neither of us like yelling so I'm glad he doesn't have one. I know of one time in his life that he lost it. He found out his ex was on drugs, he tried to leave and she blocked his way. He says they got in a huge fight and he punched the wall...and broke his hand because he hit wood and not just drywall. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper/page/2#post-277960 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 09:43:50 +0000 Andrea 277960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, DH doesn't have a temper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper/page/2#post-277956 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 09:43:29 +0000 PurplePumps 277956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all. I rarely see him get upset or lose his temper. Me on the other hand.... =X </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper/page/2#post-277952 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 09:42:50 +0000 Springtime 277952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have to agree with some others. Hubs does not have a temper at all and is very laid back. I have a bad temper =\ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper/page/2#post-277922 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 09:27:31 +0000 shinystraps 277922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No... unfortunately, I do :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper/page/2#post-277891 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 09:12:42 +0000 PrincessBaby 277891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DH is a patient saint. It takes A LOT to get him mad. But when he does, omg I run for the hills bc when he crosses that line, the only thing that will calm him down is getting away from me. Yes that's correct. The only reasons I've ever seen him spitfire mad are bc of something I said/did/etc. I've only seen him bonafide angry a handful of times, but I basically had to just leave him alone and let him "sleep on it" and he was much better the next day:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277808 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:37:25 +0000 ladyfingers 277808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He gets pissed off easily about work stuff, but he doesn't have a temper per se. Certainly not to me or anybody else close to us, he basically just vents about work when stuff comes up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277766 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:24:51 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 277766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He's super laid back and always calm under pressure (opposite of me -haha) and I never saw him lose his temper..... Until DD cries. For some reason he gets a short fuse the moment she starts really crying. He's not mad at her, he's just frustrated when he can't make her "better". It makes me laugh a little because it shows me how much he cares. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277763 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:24:34 +0000 pastemoo 277763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes because he has PTSD from serving in the wars. He hasn't tamed it but we have workarounds. It's an interesting process welcoming a war vet back home...</p> <p>@artbee: :) DH and I both have some hilarious road rage/ road rage induced potty mouth. We are working on it so the kid doesn't learn it!</p> <p>@krsmall: Good luck getting him to go to anger management classes. I haven't been successful in that yet. Maybe when he gets out of the military he won't worry about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277724 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:14:10 +0000 SugarplumsMom 277724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all. If anything, I'm the one with the temper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277697 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:08:14 +0000 T.H.O.U. 277697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: My husband punched a wall when we were dating for some stupid reason. I wasn't there but I think he was mad that I was with other friends or something. When I saw his scratched up hand the next day I just basically laughed and said taht was a pretty stupid thing to do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277681 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 07:59:40 +0000 hilsy85 277681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Neither of us really does...we are not yellers. Dh especially is super laid back. I can count the number of times he's really YELLED at me (in an argument) on one hand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277679 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 07:58:36 +0000 blackbird 277679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I didn't want to be with someone who has a temper and can't control his anger--you can be angry and communicate. Who's to say he won't take it out on me, our child, or our pet? Or our home? It's just not a quality I was going to accept in a spouse. I hope your husband can get some help. Maybe anger management? The fact that he's beating on everything in the house is unacceptable and it's childish for an adult to behave like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277634 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 07:28:24 +0000 Mrs.M57 277634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My hubby's is pretty bad. We are trying to work on it, him on the explosions, me on handling it. Sometimes I probably make things monumentally worse and I need to learn to walk away! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277599 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 06:49:39 +0000 mrs. bird 277599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsMini: my dad was like that, he'd get really frustrated &amp; curse &amp; get super mad. DH doesn't get frustrated trying to do things as he does getting mad at ppl and I can deal with the f-bomb, but the punching &amp; smashing things need to go! Our doors are metal &amp; all have his fist prints in them, our stainless fridge has his fist imprinted in it, I've become an expert with plastering holes in our walls, he just needs to learn to control himself :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277469 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 00:34:54 +0000 MsMini 277469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DH gets angry, but when he is upset/frustrated/angry he usually just shuts down and gets really quiet until he works it out in his own head. The only time he has outbursts is when he is working on his truck and things don't go well, then he drops the f-bomb aggressively. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277448 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 23:55:12 +0000 sylvie_b 277448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: the hubs is a typical Scorpio - super sweet, fun loving and charismatic 90% of the time, but when something or someone crosses his proverbial line, he lights up like a firecracker. He and I both know the best solution is for him to cool off on his own and then all is good again. We've been together 12 years, and his temper is light years better now compared to when we first met. It looks like my "glass is half full" outlook and grace under pressure has been a good influence, after all these years :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277444 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 23:49:26 +0000 littlek 277444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HeatherlovesKenny: so true!!! I wish they could see how silly they look when they act like that! It annoys me that I have to alter my behavior because he lacks self control. But it's good one of us is mature!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277434 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 23:32:22 +0000 HLK208 277434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. It's like walking on eggshells, mostly only when he is fixing something or when I criticize his parenting and he has very little patience. I hate it. I honestly don't respond well to short tempers and when he gets angry, I have to leave. He calms down and then apologizes. But I have to ignore it and treat him like a toddler sometimes. It's slowly getting better.</p> <p>Life would be so much easier without DH's short temper! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277429 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 23:22:28 +0000 plantains 277429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He is very mellow. We both are acvtually so we never fight. But I have he tells me that he used to have a horrible temper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277420 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 23:06:49 +0000 anonysquire 277420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: DH is the first laid back guy I've been with. So nice to not have our personalities compete! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277415 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 23:04:39 +0000 mrs. bird 277415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow, I'm kind of surprised by the number of laid back husbands! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277407 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 23:01:23 +0000 anonysquire 277407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DH has no emotions... I am not exagerating.

I'm more fire-y than he is... but I've mellowed with age :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277360 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 22:14:03 +0000 LittleFox 277360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! He's pretty even-keeled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277266 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 21:24:26 +0000 yin 277266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH is very laid back and always remains calm when we're in an argument. I get worked up when I'm upset and usually end up needing to cool off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277261 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 21:23:07 +0000 mrs. bird 277261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@prettylizy: my dad had a temper too, which is why I stayed with my ex so long I think- he was devoid of almost all emotion &amp; I needed that then, men's emotions frightened me. </p> <p>@krsmall: Sometimes I wish I could walk away and say it's his problem, I don't think that would go over well though :/ sometimes while I'm standing there I think about other things in my head and try not to listen to him </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277251 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 21:19:08 +0000 LuLu Mom 277251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I just walk away and let him cool off otherwise my temper starts up and two is worse than one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dh-have-a-temper#post-277248 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 21:17:12 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 277248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all. The only time he gets angry, its when we're waiting in line somewhere. But even then, I think its more of a joking-type angry. I think I've seen him lose it ONCE, in eight years. </p>
