why do people get angry on their loved ones?

I get angry with my husband. Sometimes he asks the dumbest questions , but to him it isn't dumb. We fall in love, and we get to know our spouses,then its like, I know you so well. Then we get used to each other. It works both ways though, my husband can get angry at me. I thinks its because we have gotten so used to each other, and we aren't afraid to say what we think.

We are usually emotionally involved with our loved ones. That's why they can push our buttons more easily than strangers. We care more for the ones we love and usually anger is from something they are doing or not doing that we feel is hurting them or others. It's a control thing!

stress and tension, and they are not given the right to express their concerns elsewhere, e.g. work

I think it is more to do with the affection and right one has got on his or her loved ones and it is this that comes out as anger and also it is only with a loved one that u can express ur anger and not to some stranger. It is also to share sorrows that uihave ur loved ones

I dont understand this at all...This happens to me once in a while...and i just dont understand it..I guess its where they are soo use to their loved onces, they dont care how they treat them, but when it comes to others, they dont really know the person so they try to make a good impression on them? i dunno...

You're right. We do tend to become easily angered by our loved ones more than others. I think it is because we feel secure in our relationships with those close to us and trust them to understand us even when we may say hurtful things. Anger is a natural response to certain things. How we choose to express that anger can cause arguments and damage our relationships with those we care about. So, rather than just reacting to something take the time to think about it and weigh it's worth.

i think that the reason why we get mad with our loved ones is because we love them and we care for them and in some way they have hurt us.. their actions somehow hurt us because we are connected with them.. we try to be as decent as posibble to the people we do not know because and dont get angry with them because we dont care about them. we dont care what they to do themselves or what they do to us (as long as they dont do us phyical or mental harm)..
