Question
hello Sunu , i am 21 year old i am with my boyfriend for 5 years, he love me very much  and i too but his anger is sometime become a headache for me, when he is angry he talk very loudly and don't care about where we are! today we went to an ice cream parlor . there were a little confusion over type of flavor and unfortunately he got angry and then he shouted at me, i feel insulted there. i think that every ordinary person must not be insulted, he do not care of my reputation . when he get angry , i do nothing beside shutting my mouth because i don't want to make the situation worse. i talked to him over this matter but he rarely say that it was wrong, usually he said that he will not change himself for me and if i want to live with him i should have to accept him as he is . what to do with him.generally i do not talk to him for few hours, then he says sorry and we get together , but it happens again. i do not like to feel insulted. beside this i am happy with my boyfriend. what should i do stop this ? should i bear this for ever ?

Answer
Dear Teena,


Yes, if you want to live  with this boy  you  will have to put up  with his   shouting in the present  and future  shouting and   other negative 'bonuses' along with  his  shouting.

There is no  guarantee that  in the future your boyfriend   will just stop with shouting. In usual patterns, as time goes, shouting will be accompanied with verbal and   physical  abuses and then the concerned  persons come to an 'enlightenment' that they are trapped.

This is the time for you to decide. Decide not based on emotions. Decide based on realities.

Pray to God. This  is very very important. God alone can reveal to you if your choices of life are correct and guide you accordingly

Have  a nice  day
