Is it normal to act like this when you are 28?

I hate it when this happens. I'm female and it's not that time of the month so there is no excuse for what I have just done.

There was a misunderstanding between my boyfriend and I and I thought he was going out with work mates but actually he was going out with OUR mates. He came home and said that he thinks it might be boys only. I thought right well I've got half a day off work so I went to the gym.

I spent an hour at the gym and 30 mins in the pool and was feeling really good about myself. Then I got a phonecall to ask if I was going out. I was like but I don't know anyone and he started listing our friends and I just exploded with anger inside.

Now I've sent him some horrible saying that he kept it from me on purpose and so did all our friends and now I've switched my phone off. I feel, I KNOW it's a really childish thing to say. I could just say "Oh, THOSE friends, well of course I'll come down", but I just don't want to. I'm feeling really stubborn. I feel it's childish to say that he just didn't want me there, when actually it was just a misunderstanding. The reason I don't want to go is because I've just had a really good gym sesh and don't want to ruin it by drinking now.

I feel it's so immature and I'm 28. I wasn't expecting it and haven't said anything like that for years. Does anyone else do this. IIN?

    Everyone flips out every so often. You mishear something. You misinterpret something. RAGE! And then you get a hold of yourself and feel embarrassed.

    I wouldn't over explain it to people, just apologise for losing your cool and move on. The more you make of it, the more they make of it.

  • Next time he is asleep drug him then go collect some homeless men to come to your house and violated him sexually. This would really teach him a lesson and it would be so funny lol

    It happens from time to time. We can all overreact because we feel left out and hurt. I act this way from time to time. When I do it's because something else is bothering me. Perhaps I'm feeling insecure and one misunderstanding causes me to snap! If you're in a bad mood, it's probably best to stay in and avoid furthering an argument. Apologize to your boyfriend and friends and move on.

    I try not to flip out a lot as well but sometimes I just have to say the negative thoughts I'm thinking even though they probably aren't true, I just need to say how I feel sometimes and seems that's what your doing here. If something bothers you, you shouldn't have to keep it in for fear of pissing someone else off or being viewed as childish. Just try to keep it to a minimum and think positive thoughts 99% of the time or you will push people away.
