Answer in these steps: 1. Rarely, I'm pretty easy going. 2. At least once a week 3. At least once a day 4. Just when I'm driving. As for me I think its when I'm driving.

I lose temper for being so irritating. Some people continued to scrutinize me. I will lose temper if the statements are not acceptable.

It depends. If I don't get much sleep or feel under pressure I loose my cool plenty... hence my potty mouth.

For me, it's mostly once a day (atleast)! and it's usually at my husband. After 8.5 years of marriage, you would have thought he knew what kind of help I need.

For me, I think it depends on whether I'm losing my temper with somebody whom I'm very familiar with or with someone I'm not so familiar with. If I'm losing my temper with somebody I'm very familiar with, eg. my parents, my brother, best friend and so on, then I think I would fall into category 2. This is because it is easier to lose my temper with these sort of people and then easily patch up later on. If I were to lose my temper at someone I'm not so familiar with, eg. normal friends, strangers and so on, then I would most probably fit into category 1. I find it difficult to explain this, but I'm extra patient when I'm with people I'm not so familiar with. Maybe I'm pretty conscious about how others will see my personality, so that's why I'm more patient with these people. While I'm driving too, I'm pretty patient too. Perhaps I see myself as a not-so-good driver, that's why I see myself doing mistakes instead of others doing them. I think that's a good thing, and if everyone thinks like that, our roads will be a much better place to be, wouldn't it?
