    Do you have a short fuse or can you keep calm?

    Me personally, I can keep calm, don't let my emotions get the better of me, but it can come to the surface if I feel I've been really wronged.

    PS, it could be a family thing. Father's side are hotheads, mother's side are ice cold.

    I'm generally calm enough but I still lose it sometimes. Even when I do, I just kick something or raise my voice a little bit, harmless really :p

    My temper is in direct correlation to time spent with particular individuals, like real Bruce Banner sh*t.

    I hate my temper because I get really hot headed quite fast but within a minute or two it's dissipates and then I end up feeling bad.:o I was never good at sustained anger!:pac:

    Absolutely. Feck all patience. Banks and taxi companies are the main source of ire.
    I've definitely made a name for myself in one or two call centres.
    "That b1tch again" most likely.

    Do have a temper but can keep it under control. Tend to let off steam a lot more than I used to.

    No a new brush, it was her favourite so I went and got her one the exact same. She was delighted when I spontaneously surprised her today.

    At the same time I hope the dinner is good tomorrow as Id hate to have to go in and buy another one. Pretty costly and all that

    No I'm a spitfire. I blow up but do calm down fairly fast.

    I have zero patience and I can't keep my temper under control at all. In short I'm a bit of a ****.

    Passive agressive streak. It is not nice when it comes out.

    No, I give out and make sneery comments when annoyed but don't have pressure-cooker-going-off moments.

    I'm the opposite....usually quiet cool/calm..slow to anger....but when I do blow it all comes out...could take hours to calm down and God help anyone who annoys me deliberately then.....

    A lad in work said before I was putting something back together and he came down and said it was pure temper put it back and could see the steam coming off me....:O

    (Obv when I calmed down)

    I bundle it all up, then go for a walk by myself and fantasise about saying all the stuff I haven't the balls to say to them, acting out conversations and crucifying them with my cutting criticisms, leaving them shamed and speechless.

    It's great.
