I've never lost my temper in my life. I'm a very calm person, and it takes a hell of a lot to make me angry. And even then, I won't argue or shout. I'll just remove myself from the situation, and go and have a ciggy. That calms me down enough. If anyone shouts at me, I'll walk away. Either talk to me properly, or don't talk to me at all
Actually, I'm trying to even think of the last time I was even angry, and I can't. I've been annoyed with people/things, but nothing that a glass of wine and a kittie cuddle didn't cure. I don't react rashly or immediately to things that annoy me, I wait and think things through beforehand. I find this avoids the necessity to argue, and taking a break also means you don't say things you regret later.
