Why is my partner allowed to express their anger and act out but I can’t? If I do they start freaking out

Feelings are always valid but how someone expresses them still needs to be respectful.

well i’m in the same boat, it’s a deflection of their character. they KNOW the way they handle emotion is flawed, and because they don’t want to admit that, when you display the same thing they explode. it’s like suppressed hypocrisy blowing up in UR face. they need to work on themselves and make an effort to change how they express themself when angry

I express mine the same way they do now cause I figure it’s only fair and they don’t seem to like it

I understand that it’s easier to mirror someone when they are being disrespectful to you. It’s a drag to always be the bigger person. If someone doesn’t respect you when they are angry, they don’t deserve you.

Couples therapy and some deep talks should happen. It can only change if both people work at it.
