I think it all comes out at work but never at home. If he gets upset, he just lets me know and wants to talk it out. I'm the one with a temper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-43076 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 07:22:44 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 43076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No he doesn't. He is pretty patient and very rarely gets past the point of frustration and into anger. I think I am the only person who knows how to make him truly angry. He never yells either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-43072 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 06:40:16 +0000 Andrea 43072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, he doesn't which is nice since I have a temper. At least only one of us does. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-43059 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 02:02:34 +0000 yoursilverlining 43059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, not at all. In almost 6 years together we've never had a fight, and he's never raised his voice to me or yelled at me. He's apologized once or twice for getting "irritated" or "rude" with me, which always made me laugh when he did it, as I never even knew he was being crabby! We're both very laid back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-43051 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 00:26:31 +0000 StbHisMrs 43051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine has a very bad temper. He didn't use to, I really hope he'll see a Dr soon. He gets mad at the dog, and the kids, then me. I think it has a lot to do with stress and not working. He isn't the man I married lately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-43048 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 00:07:32 +0000 Rosie Girl 43048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He just has a short fuse. Doesn't blow up or anything, but it doesn't take long for him to get frustrated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-43013 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 21:27:19 +0000 lilteacherbee 43013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Modern Daisy: My husband is exactly the same way. Sometimes its tough for me because I want to resolve the issue right then, but I've learned that it works out a lot easier if I just let him have his space for a few hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42981 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 20:28:40 +0000 Rubies 42981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The hubs is VERY laid back. He's NEVER so much as raised his voice at me. When he's upset about something, he logically talks it out - never gets angry. </p> <p>I get frustrated and emotional a lot. We're both pretty good, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42978 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 20:26:01 +0000 eeh 42978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband is usually pretty awesome at not letting things get to him. He does a really good job of realizing that things just aren't that big of a deal and don't really matter in the grand scheme of things. The only times he gets really frustrated is when he can't get something to work, loses something, etc. then he is pretty known to let the cuss words fly or even throw something (never at someone...he'll just chuck his phone into the backyard or something). At this point it's just funny to me when it happens because it's always over something stupid. Probably won't find it funny once the baby is here. I'm mostly worried that our baby's first words will be curse words. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42974 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 20:19:53 +0000 heffalump 42974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm extremely sensitive and HATE to get yelled at. My husband knows that, and doesn't do it. He's awesome at talking things out nice and calmly because he knows I won't respond to yelling. So I'm sure he'll be the same way with my lo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42820 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 16:01:34 +0000 LuLu Mom 42820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband sometimes has a short fuse when it comes to our dog which I always remind him is not acceptable and will definitely not be acceptable when we have children. I have to put it in perspective and explain that it's not the worst thing that could happen and to just breathe. He usually recovers very quickly. He's his father's son for sure, and I explain that while I love my father in law, I did not marry him and he pulls it back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42816 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 15:53:44 +0000 cyneswith 42816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband fumes a little and goes for a walk when he's mad (which I've seen maybe once in 4 years of knowing him.) But I grew up with a violent bipolar brother (unmedicated until adulthood) - there was NO WAY I was gonna end up with a bad-tempered person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42810 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 15:49:05 +0000 Modern Daisy 42810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my DH gets angry, he usually shuts down completely and needs time to himself before he's willing to communicate at all. Once he's calmed down, he's usually a lot more receptive to having a productive conversation - but before then do not get in his way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42802 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 15:42:18 +0000 chopsuey 42802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all :) I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42737 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 14:51:14 +0000 Clementine 42737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but I think I have more of a temper~ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42734 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 14:50:55 +0000 sorrycharlie 42734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am totally the tempered one. DH is very mellow, and only yells if I REALLY get him going. On the other hand, I am very very quick to lose my cool and very quick to calm down.</p> <p>I nannied for years, and only once lost my temper with the girl, (because she put the newborn in danger of being hurt). I more often lose my temper with adults than children, because I feel like adults know what they're doing. And my DH is a total antagonist ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42732 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 14:50:12 +0000 mrbee 42732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: I am going to try it out on Charlie soon, and then I'll post about our experiences on the blog! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42727 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 14:48:58 +0000 banana 42727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I'm definitely going to check out Magic 1-2-3 since you've mentioned how great it is several times. I love reading books so I'm looking forward to that. I'll make my hubs read it too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42714 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 14:43:25 +0000 tequiero21 42714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>in general, he's pretty even tempered. but when he blows up, he blows up. so far, we don't have LOs yet, so we'll have to see how he handles our babies. lol. i have a feeling though that he won't be so blow-y uppy since he probably won't see them much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42713 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 14:43:23 +0000 T.H.O.U. 42713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My SO is pretty good at having patience but sometimes I think he needs to step away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42710 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 14:42:17 +0000 mrbee 42710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The book Magic 1-2-3- mentions that getting upset at your LO can give them a sense of power, and can lead to behavioral issues!</p> <p>Can your SO manage his stress through other means, like exercise or something? Either way, I really really recommend Magic 1-2-3! It provides a roadmap for managing your kids, which makes parenting way less stressful... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-husbandso-have-a-bad-temper#post-42688 Wed, 28 Dec 2011 14:26:50 +0000 banana 42688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband is pretty mellow on most days. But when he gets frustrated at LO, he just blows up and starts yelling. I feel so bad for LO because I dont' think he understands why his daddy is so mad. I tell my husband all the time that he needs to calm down and that LO isn't doing anything on purpose. But hubs gets so frustrated and stressed from work that when LO does something that "defies" him, he gets really upset.</p> <p>Sometimes I worry that his temper will have a negative effect on our LO. He tries to work on it though.</p> <p>Do your husbands/SO's have a bad temper? If so, how do you deal with it? </p>
