I am. I can't explain why, the mistake he made makes me get very angry on him, but if the same mistake made by normal people around me, i will be very clam. I don't know why, do you face the same situation like i am? Do you feel the same way? Am i over expect on him?

It's a more common occurrence than you'd imagine. It probably happens with just about anyone even though some people hide it better than others. The more you are familiar and attached to a person, the more confident you become in them, not just for the things that you can tell them, by the support they can give you, but in their actions as well. When this close person is the one doing mistakes, it feels like a larger shortcoming from the expectations you have of them than if it was someone you barely knew, and of course, you take a swing at it now and then. It's probably hard to stop that, but one can always try to apply a more emphatic approach to it so that rather than bursting in a negative manner you try to comfort both yourself and your other (who may or may not be aware of his/her mistake).

Yes, I think so. I think since I love him and care about him, so when I am mad at him, this feeling is stronger. You won't lose temper easily to anyone you don't know. And your anger won't last for a long time, too. However, if this is your lover, everything will be quite different. I love China

I agree. But why is that?If we love someone, shouldn't we treat them better than other people?

I am the same way! Especially around that time of month! It's weird, I mean, I am still pretty irritable around my family too but when I'm with my boyfriend he does one little thing that upsets me... I blow up! It's definitely not a good thing and I am in the process of working on that, but yes, I do tend to go alot harsher on my partner then on other people.
