I am known to have a temper. I tend to bottle up my emotions normally for a long time and all my negative emotions, my anger at others, my stress from school builds up and I will explode. To let out my temper I will shout at people a lot or just sit sulking for a while in a bad mood. I hate it sometimes because I can hurt someone badly or annoy him.

Well, I'm not a red head, I have black hair and a bad temper...I get angry easily, although I get happy easily too! Well, sticking to the temper, I tend to yell a lot, and I cry when I'm too angry, so everyone thinks I'm wheepy, (well...sometimes I am ) but most of the time I have tears of fury streaming down my eyes (wow, how poetic! ).

Bad drivers tick me off, and so does unconsiderate people and ridiculous people and show offs and people who pretend to be drunk because they think it is cool but they're not even drunk...they're the worst!!

Well, I'm starting to get a little angry, so I think I'll go now

I don't get angry really quick. When I do, it's when people are doing really stupid things and are purposely trying to tick me off. I hate when people do drugs because they are being absolutely ridiculous and throwing their life away. People smoking cigarettes bugs me big time. I also hate when people buy things for people that they know they won't like. I'm not a redhead but my best friend is and she definitely does not have a temper.

Happy Holidays!

I have a really bad temper. But I hate yelling. My chorus teacher says yelling messes up your vocal chords so I'm trying to be patient and not yell alot. I can't stay mad at people either. Only some people I will stay mad at.

I have a bad temper and I don't know if I can control it, because whenever I get mad I just stop talking to everyone and I am very proud, so if anyone offends me, I just stop talking to that person and don't care if we never speak to each other again. I sometimes confront people but since people are often as stubborn as I am, I just spare myself from the pointless fights.

What do you think? Is confronting people better or not?

Confrontation is only better if you want to resolve the issue. If you're just doing it to go off on that person, that's not any more helpful than the silent treatment!

I tend to go silent myself, but I've learned that it's not a real good tactic, because what if I'm wrong about that person? I've actually had people just cut me out of their lives, thinking I did something I didn't, and the pain was so bad! They wouldn't even give me a chance to tell my side of things. You can't find out for sure if someone did what you think they did if you talk to them. I suppose it's different if you know for sure, though.

I always think I'm pretty easy-going, but I too get angry much too often.

yea temper wow...ehm saying I have a huge one would be a bit of an understatement....*doesnt meet anyones eyes and mutters* or a huge one...lets just say that if you're my friend then you don't need to worry. But if I don't like you or if you say something that really makes me mad, or worse hurts one of my friends....it's not pretty.

Mainly that last part about my friends, I stand up for myself but I don't really go off, but my friends are the most important thing in the world to me, so if you hurt one of them then you are going to have serious problems...And not just me yelling at you, yelling is if you're lucky.

I also have a huge problem with holding grudges. I can forgive some people but I don't forget anything that they've done to hurt me or somebody I care about, and I will use it at every opportunity I get.

I know I sound like a real witch with a b. and honestly I probably am, but you only get that side of me if you deserve it, otherwise I'm a sweet girl *snorts* ok not exatly...

I have a bad temper, yes, but I keep it all in. I will get soo mad at someone but I wil just swear my head off in my head and think about punching them out. SOmetimes when this really annoying guy, that supposedly likes me, get on my nerves I tell him to shut up and stop being obnoixious, but otherwise im pretty cool.

I love how the subtitle has "Not Just Redheads". I'm a redhead, and I don't really have a temper. It takes a LOT to get me really ticked off. I have my stressed-out moments like everyone else, but really, that's about it. I hate confrontation so I try to avoid it like the plague. I'm just too laid-back and relaxed when it comes to other people.

My mom, on the other hand, is a redhead and has a temper the size of Texas! Seriously! It doesn't take much at all to send her over the edge. Just breath funny and you could tick her off.

Unfortunately, I think my daughter might be following in my mother's footsteps. EEK! I can only hope that I'll have a positive influence on her to bring her back to the "good" side. Ha ha. Tempers just never seem to solve problems in a positive way.

Bottle blonds have tempers too! Ooh that would make a whole thread on it's own don't you think

I have a terrible temper, and I'm a nag toboot! I usually let things simmer for a while until pooft! They start to boil over and then I really let of steam.

Usually it's because of the lack of co-operation on the housework front that really gets me fired up. And people complaining they are bored. I'm never bored, I have too much housework to do!GRRR!

Usually, I have one big blow up...everyone looks at me strangley and, they basically ignore me as if to say..there , there things will look better tomorrow...and it's over...till next time muahahaha!

I have to the biggest temper in the world. At home anyway. I have to be polite in public, so if I have to be nice in public no one said I have to at home. I have to stay locked in my room for my family's safety.

Well, I'm not a red head, but I have a pretty bad temper. At least sometimes... I tend to yell a lot and talk back and stuff like that which really annoys people. Normally, I'm a pretty easy going, happy person, but if I get ticked off, my temper gets pretty un-good.

I can hold me temper, but sometimes when I'm really, really angry or frustrated, I'll snap out at somebody and regret it later. And usually what I snap will be rather cutting and, as I said, regrettable. Sometimes you accidentally put your foot in it, you know.

I have to admit that I put my foot in my mouth without intending to do so! Story of my life. But, I don't have a bad temper, I never have.

However, I do have a way of irritating people, sometimes I deliberately do it, but more often than not, I do it without even realizing it. When I was in high school and was having my year book passed around for comments and signatures, one of the girls wrote in it - "to a girl I didn't like at first, but learned to love". I remember when I first met her, she was a bit aloof towards me; but she warmed up the more we got to know each other. For some reason, I have never forgotten what she wrote in my yearbook. I guess that's why I tend NOT "to judge a book by its cover", if you know what I mean.

I have a bit of a nasty temper myself. It takes me a while to blow up, but when I do, oh boy it's not pretty. I also can't hide the fact when I am upset. My family says that you can see it in my face. I try not to show it, you know I try to keep it cool and act as if nothing is wrong, but everyone says they can tell when I am angry. The thing that really ticks me off is when people ask "Why are you mad?". Sometimes, I will just be quiet or maybe just a little annoyed, and when they ask me that, it's like it sends me to the roof and then I really get angry . Weird, I know.

I am rather unsettled in most matters. It takes an awful lot to really get me mad, and even then I can go back to normal in seconds. I've always aimed to achieve this because showing your anger in most cases only adds to the argument-- saying things you don't mean, feeding the anger of the other person, giving them pleasure in upsetting you, etc. Just remain calm and arguments end a lot quicker, and usually in your favor.

I am generally an even-tempered person. The problem is that I'm also extremely blunt, which tends to offend a lot of people. I am explosive, in that something will really irritate me, and so I'll yell or whatever at the person doing it, but then I'll move on. Usually I forget what I was angry about in the first place!

In public and with my friends, I can keep it together pretty easily. Not to mention that I'm someone who tries really hard not to offend someone or hurt their feelings, so I'm never very blunt. So if I'm ticked off at a friend or someone in public I say it nicely. Or at least as nicely as possible.

At home though, I'm really terrible. I get ticked off really easily and I'm stubborn and impatient. That's not a good combination for me. I can be hot-headed but I'm not usually.

I pretty much dont care about like anything so usually things don't bother me. I do get really mad at stupid, annoying people though. There is one person in my class who like copies everything I do, if I like a song suddenly she does, if I come up with a new saying she will steal it, plus she laughs at everything I say. It is so annoying. If it wasn't for her and a few other choice people I would be extremely level-headed.

I've been trying hard to keep my temper under control, but being around certain people makes it really hard especially when it seems like they really know how to push your buttons. However, what people do not realize is that I have 3 of possibly the worst tempers in me....German, Irish and Polish! So yeah when I blow....I blow!

I have a very bad temper..and it's mostly at home. In public, I have to be polite and all that but a lot of things outside do annoy me but I have to pretend it doesn't. At home.... I just can't control my anger...I just lock myself in my room and throw the pillows at the wall until my angers out...for me, it's the best way to relax
