hmm... when were you made at me? Was it justified? I think I know the answer.. but I always appreciate the dialog.

I think anger is just another emotion that is what it is, not sure justification is required or even necessary, when we feel something, we feel it. I do think that my feelings are justified as are your feelings but it took me longer to snap out of it than I would have liked... I don't like how I felt and didn't like that I allowed you to make me feel that way for that long.

The anger feeling is hard to quantify as I don't always know what you are angry about. You can be passive-aggressive about that. Rather just know what it is you are angry with, but I think sometimes you don't even know. I guess the Punching bag will help you with that. I'm always one to move past an issue and not dwell on it.

Yeah, I probably don't know how to voice why I am upset, that is still a work in progress. I promise I am working on that though. I think sometimes I get scared and when that happens it usually turns into anger in self defense I guess. I know logically that I don't want to lose "us" yet I still have that fear sometimes. Other women and how you react to them, etc. sometimes exasperates that fear. I will really try to work harder on this though, I promise. We both have things to work on and it doesn't change over night.

Yes, I think we are both stubborn in that sense....sometimes I know my OCD can get a little crazy but sometimes I also just want to have you offer to help or just start pitching in with things. I don't want to always feel like I have to ask you to focus away from other distractions. I do love that you don't like to keep the situation brewing for very long and I acknowledge that it means a lot to me to have you make it right sooner than later.

I do acknowledge that I can get caught up in a one track mind and feel its ok to perhaps do what I want when I want, but I know that's not fair and perhaps at least stating a specific reason to check an email or for a response is better than just doing as I see fit. And yes FB & twitter can be like a Shiny object. Balance I guess is the key. Again, I will try and pitch in before being asked but sometimes your OCD can be ahead of my schedule or need to take care of something... Another balancing act... alas we work through it. We always do xo.

I hope so... it does feel like it can get out of whack and I know my OCD can go into hyperspeed sometimes. To be honest though, my OCD stays in check when you and I are balanced in love, life, etc. Oh and I changed my status on this site from "Dating" to "engaged"... :) I do love that you don't walk out of the house and leave when we argue. That would send me reeling.

Just changed my status to the same as well :)
Male, >50 years, Engaged, CA, US | Feb 06, 2012

I love you so much. I think that is what scares me sometimes. Never had this intense or passionate love like ours and I just can't lose it. I know you are committed to "us" too and I know you don't want to lose what we have....
Female, >50 years, Engaged, CA, US | Feb 06, 2012

Love you more than any other eva... It's all new territory. Never going to let you go, Never going to give you up... wait a minute... It's a Rick Roll line... lol Will always fight for "us" baby!
Male, >50 years, Engaged, CA, US | Feb 06, 2012

Good... cause I don't plan to go anywhere.
