A Side I've Never Seen

    Okay, I'm not really sure what kind of advice I'm looking for here, but here goes.

    A couple of days ago, I saw a side of my boyfriend that I'd never seen before- and I hated it. He was in an argument (it wasn't with me, I was just standing there pathetically), and he was handling things awfully. Not only was he partly in the wrong, he was vindictive, childish, and really immature about the whole thing.

    I've been dating him for two years, so I guess I thought I knew him better than that. I always knew that he had a temper, I've just never seen it flare up like that, and it scared me. And it was over something so trivial!

    I'm not sure what to think. I know that I have to accept him the way he is, but.. I don't know. It's weird now, and now when he's being 'normal', or the way I've seen him for the past two years, it seems fake. He's never been like that to me, but if he has it in him, then why wouldn't he?

    I don't know. Does anybody have any thoughts or opinions on this? Or anything really. He's not a bad person, please keep that in mind, this just hit me kind of hard.

    I say you have to try talking to him about it, hun.
    Tell him what you're thinking and how you feel.
    He needs to give you some reassurance on the situation.
    You two won't get anywhere with this if you don't say anything to him about it. You NEED to talk.

    I personally wouldn't worry too much about it..
    I mean, we all have our moments were we don't act like ourselves.
    But you're right, that doesn't make us bad people.

    Good luck with everything!

    Maybe he was just having a bad day and it caused him to act the way he did.
    The person above me is right it always hepls to talk about things.
    Im sure that when hes being like he has for the past two years hes being fake. If he wasnt being fake dont you think you would of realized it long before now ?

    Everyone has a few little, seemingly insignificant things, that when mentioned or directed to them, will literally set them wild. Im even like that, talking about just the right thing will set me off. Ive snapped in literally a second and practically beat the shit out of people for saying the wrong thing. I think everyone has it, different levels though. And also when people like disrespect me, numerous times after I told them to shutup, I can get pretty physical. Its pretty funny because Ive like choked the hell out of some of my friends like in an instant. Pieces.
