Title: Unpredictable anger Post by: SAAT on July 05, 2017, 04:44:58 PM I cannot predict sometimes what triggers my Dd25. Last night she attacked me over a misunderstanding. I had gone to some lengths to take her out for dinner which of course did not happen. Instead she stood in the street swearing at me and then stormed off. Another evening ruined. How do others deal with this? I don't get as upset as I used to but. I deserve better treatment. Should I insist on an apology? There has to be a consequence

It could be that she was baiting, I'd suggest putting the boundary on yourself and you could say something like "I refuse to be treated that way" and change the tempo, go out to the garage and clean your car or run out for an errand. We can only control two things our thoughts and feelings we can't control someone else, if she does X then I respond with Y. Set the boundary on yourself and don't subject yourself to that behaviour and remove yourself by finding something a distraction. I hope that helps. |
