Unfortunately I have been known for my bad temper. I'm working on it.
I just got done praying and confessing my faults. Then 15 minutes later I'm yelling at a Dunkan Donuts Clerk. There was a sign that said "if you do not get your receipt from the cashier you get your order free." Well he didn't give me my receipt. I said "ahh, according to this sign I get my order free..." He said "no, that's not what it says and start trying to get out of it." I start YELLING AT HIM as someone is waiting behind me. I said I WILL CONTACT YOUR MANAGER... GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK!! He gave me my money back. I was going to leave without the order but I took it. After all, the sign says I get my free order if I do not get my receipt.
I have to be honest, I was embarrassed that my hot temper flared up over something so silly. I'm not a cheap stake. In fact, I'm very generous. I guess I got angry because he was trying to tell me what I read was wrong. He was not taking responsibility for his error.
But was it worth it? I mean, letting everyone see my hot temper, not to mention the video cameras that are in the store!!
Then I wondered to myself. My temper flared u so fast. And I just got done praying for forgiveness by my parent's grave to God about all my faults. Might I have borderline personality disorder?
Might I have a Borderline personality?
Happens to the best of us. It's just called anger. I can apologize to my parents one second, and they can piss me off so bad the next. It's just that we're so used to being angry that it comes out uncontrollably. It feels pretty good too, especially when we know that we're right. Unfortunately, though, being right doesn't always make us happy. I'm not saying you were wrong by doing what you did. You have to be your own judge. Did it cause you more distress than the donuts were worth? I myself wouldn't have argued because I am too ashamed to, I guess. I generally let people walk on me. And it builds up inside, so I am know to just snap sometimes, and whatever comes to my mind comes out of my mouth. Hope that helped.
