    You can't take other peoples problems on as your own though Faith, haven't you just got married? (from your sig) - what does your OH think?

    A single bloke living with a married couple can't go on forever being included in your life plans, what when you want kids, etc


    OH likes him he was living with me before I got with OH so he's always been around and they gang up on me to wind me up (playfully) and they go out fishing ect together when they can

    Kids aren't an issue for at least another 5 years if we can have them at all OH has been told there is a high chance he can't have them

    It's up to him, really. We all need to control our temper or we'll get into serious trouble. That's taught to most people in primary school, surely.
  • He will only do something about it if he wants to. Sounds to me like he might have stress and depression. A person can get very angry when they are depressed. Its not always a matter of growing up etc.
    You can suggest the G.P or anger management groups but its only when it has a big impact on him that he will do anything about it.

    He has been like this for years but it seems to be getting worst just lately

    The man needs to get a grip. Amazing that at 34 he doesn't have the maturity to get himself to a state of calm, reflect on how badly he has reacted to a situation, and then resolve to handle things better next time. What sort of society would it be if we all carried on like this? No one has it easy, few resort to being so over the top and downright aggressive though. Seems he will carry on until his behaviour has serious consequences for him and most likely someone else.
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.
