Dear eHarmony,

There’s really no flattering way to put this; I am a very angry person. I find that in my daily activities I experience a chronic, anger towards the world. Even when I am at peace and content it only takes a small inconvenience or frustration to send me spiraling down into hours of anger. I don’t lash out…yet. But I’m actually holding off on a romantic relationship because I’m scared of how I will eventually act. Can you help me?

You are taking the right step by addressing your anger issues. A relationship can only be as healthy as the emotional health of its weakest partner. In this case, your anger management problem would make a relationship extremely risky. Out of the many divorce autopsies eHarmony has performed, anger issues have been a significant contributor to the vast majority of cases. It is an epidemic.

If you are divorced and still angry over what has occured to you, regardless of whether or not you are justified in being such, you are simply not ready for a new e-Harmonyrelationship.

I realize that my statement is a generalization, but as a widower I have had the unfortunate experience of meeting very nice females who turn out to be so very suspicious of every action and comment that they cannot relate to true honesty in what should be a "normal" relationship. . You are not being asked to revert to your pre-marrage naivity, but give the new guy a chance. Don't turn on him in anger. Take it slow and easy and look for all the red flags you want, but don't judge the new guy using your old guy experiences.

Ladies if you can't do this then please suspend your membership until you get some professional help.

I recently "got angry" on my job regarding sexist remarks. Actually it is blatant violation of federal law. Hah. Those involved turned it around and made it about me.! I'm the one who needs a break...etc.

Hmm. I took it to management and our EEO and nothing significant was done about it except peoples feelings were hurt.

Funny how even righteous anger in this instance didn't seem to bring about any change. Injustices is what gets me angry.

Oh well. Now I just watch and document what goes on. Maybe a supeona when someone sues will bring about change.

Some of the observations on anger were interesting and it is well know that there are lots of materials on the subject. However, a few suggestion would be helpful!
